    Words mean things, my friend. Go get yourself some proper education and figure out what the phrase "I'd rather" means. I do not enjoy hysteria, but I'd much rather have truth which happens to induce a little fear and hysteria over the bull$#@! you call "facts."

    Seriously though, if you get anything out of this post, it's that you absolutely NEED to get yourself a proper high school education. Mitt Romney will make you spit out the government teat if he has to grab you by your ignorant little tail to do it. Honestly, I think that would be very entertaining.

    That doesn't answer the question.

    Sorry, but the hysteria was caused by the cover-up. That was manufactured by the White House. Fox News took the unforgivable step of reporting the incident and the cover-up instead of joining the MSM in protecting President Obama and participating in the cover-up. Here's a hint, The movie had nothing to do with it.

    Yes. This is true.

    That doesn't excuse the regime from not defending, or at least avenging, its ambassador.

    I would go Roman on them. Think Carthage.

    I had a very successful and profitable career.. and now I'm retired. I also have a fine education both in the US and abroad.

    The bigger picture in the ME and Africa escapes you.. and Mitt who thinks Russia is our biggest enemy..

    I have rarely seen grown men who threw tantrums instead of asking questions and thinking.

    Don't ever get so stuck in your assumptions that you can't think.

    Who do you think they should kill to avenge our ambassador? Maybe wipe out 700,000 in Benghazi?

    Sometimes I wonder about such attitudes.. but if you feel strongly, get your gun and head for North Africa.

    Been there done that. I don't think the Army would medically clear me today. If they did I would be happy as a clam.

    Ambassadors are sacrosanct. You kill them at the peril of your civilization.

    I want you to read this.. The error being that we relied on the shaky Libyan government..

    - 10:10: The rescue team reached a chaotic intersection a few blocks from the consulate. Militias gathered there have several 50-caliber machine guns, which the CIA team tries unsuccessfully to commandeer; three militiamen offer to help. The rescue party now includes 10 people: six GRS officers; a CIA translator, and the three Libyan volunteers.
    - 10:20: A reconnaissance party of two GRS officers heads to the consulate; at 10:25, three more GRS officers enter the main gate and begin engaging the attackers. The firefight lasts about 15 minutes.
