This has been one of the biggest lies the right wing propaganda machine was spreading for months, that the president ordered the people in Benghazi to "stand down" during the attack.

It has now been relieved no stand down order was EVER given.

Though this won't change anything, the right wing sheep will keep right on lapping up the lies and propaganda from their beloved fox news. What a bunch of morons,...

But Col. Gibson said Wednesday that no stand-down order was given, according to the House Armed Services subcommittee on oversight and investigations.

“Contrary to news reports, Gibson was not ordered to ‘stand down’ by higher command authorities in response to his understandable desire to lead a group of three other Special Forces soldiers to Benghazi,” the subcommittee said in a rare statement about a closed-door briefing.
Not that the partisan right will stop lying about a ‘stand down order,’ of course.

Contrary to your illogical assertion, the idea of a stand down order was not a lie, since that was the statement of a Department of State offical who was on the ground in Libya. You might conclude that he lied, or was misinformed, but calling those who accepted his word to be liars, is in itself a lie. Nor, did any of you ignorant asses know any difference before this new information came out.

And, this only explains one aspect of the military non response to the libyan situation. Why did not available forces move to protect the embassy in Tripoli from a possible follow-on attack?

The word you are looking for is incompetence from top to bottom of this administration.

What we know is that there was no response. Whether by design or by incompetence we will never know because the party of lies will never admit such.

Four men are dead quit trying to cover for this blatant lack of regard for them by Hillary and Obama. Trying to make it a issue about anyone but the administration that let our men down and let down America then lied about it is disgusting but oh so liberal.
 
From the following article. Certainly seems as if someone believes, and testified to, that there was indeed a stand down order. Now I don't for a minute think that the Obama administration did it because they wanted Stevens killed, they did it out of incompetence like so many other things they do.

Benghazi hearing: Gregory Hicks says "stand down" order is true.

Turner: Is there any reason to believe that the situation in Benghazi was over? There were a number of series of attacks, as you’ve described it to us. Any reason to describe that there was no longer any danger in Benghazi?

Hicks: No, it was every reason to continue to believe that our personnel were in danger.

Turner: Mr. Hicks, Mr. Chaffetz has given me an article that appeared in USA Today just this week. And just as early as last Monday, Major Robert Firman, a Pentagon spokesman, said that the military's account that was first issued weeks after the attacks hasn’t changed. “There was never any kind of stand-down order to anybody.” Now, that’s a pretty broad statement, “anybody.” What’s your reaction to the quote by Mr. Firman?

Hicks: I can only again repeat that Lieutenant Colonel Gibson said he was not to proceed to board the airplane.

Turner: So your first-hand experience being on the site, standing next to Colonel Gibson, who was on his way on that C-130 transport and being told not to go, contradicts what Mr. Firman is saying on behalf of the Pentagon?

Hicks: Yes sir.


Later, Rep. Ron DeSantis (R-FL) asked Hicks who gave Lt. Col. Gibson the "stand-down" order. "He did not identify the person," Hicks said. And therein lies you know what.

Hmmm...

Gibson asks to lead a rescue party to help Americans under attack.

Permission is NOT given.



And you morons really think that makes Obama look good?
 
Anti Muslim video causes riots across the Middle East

These Republicans, can they be more pathetic? This video causes deadly riots all over the Middle East and major cities in Europe and still, they only talk about a single consulate in Libya. Maybe if Republicans had done a better job after 9/11, there wouldn't have been more al Qaeda that attacked that consulate. Is this just another case of "Obama derangement syndrome" with then blaming Obama for something that once again can be traced back to Right Wing incompetence?

The right wing machine flat out lied to the easily programmed sheep like yourself that Obama ordered a "stand down" in Benghazi. No such thing ever happened.

Does that not bother you that your right wing masters are lying to you?

You need to try to get inside the minds of the people who don't trust Obama. They believe he is a socialist who takes from the rich and gives to the poor. They believe he is persecuting business like Stalin persecuted Ayn Rand's father. They have been told Obama is 100% dishonest, incompetent and ill-intentioned. They feel these things down to the core of their being.

They are not interested in Benghazi as a collection of true or false facts. They are more interested in saying whatever is necessary to defeat him because they think defeating him will help the country. Lying about Obama lives at the level of instinct - and it is not felt as lying, as a rule.

However, as a thought experiment, let's say they were literally concerned with the truth of what happened; let's further imagine that they made an honest and conscious decision only to report provable facts on Benghazi. Under these conditions they would still claim the "Stand Down" order was true. Why? Because they mistrust him so deeply that they cannot imagine any other possibility. The Democrats felt the same way about Bush.

There is no such thing as objectivity when you mistrust someone so deeply and so pathologically.

Impossible.

Nothing can fit inside something that small.

For most on the right it’s partisan, not paranoia.

And it has little to do with trust and more to do with losing two elections in a row.

It’s about the power and authority of the Executive Branch, the Imperial Presidency, the EOs, the signing statements, and the judicial appointments – particularly to the Supreme Court.

Republicans don’t care about a given president ‘abusing’ his power provided it’s a republican president engaging in the abuse.

It’s about republicans angry they lost the WH, perceived to be their ‘birthright,’ and frankly little else.
