8. And the "liberally-biased media" not pressing for investigation

because they are too afraid of not being allowed to ask a question at any future press conferences by Dumbya.

Remember, the "liberally-biased media" forgot that they all had the videotape of George W. Bush giving one of the few "post-9/11/2001" press conferences where he actually answered questions ... you know, the one where he pointed out that he was "not that concerned" about bin Laden ... but that would have spoiled the fact that John Kerry pointed out Bush's quote in a national debate.

The attack on the Obama administration is absolutely bull crap.
Under Bush, 9 times as many people were killed at various consulates & embassies around the world.

The consulate in Karachi, Pakistan was attacked twice in less than 8 months(June 2002 and Feb 2003)..and then again in 2006.
Yet...NOT a peep out of the CONservatives, limbaugh, o'liely, hannity, etc.

An attack on the consulate, then they should be gone. I have not followed this much so don't know the ins and outs but i am surprised that there was not qrf deployed.
