Benghazi: Republicans exploit; as President Obama works toward justice [View all]
The accusations have been made ad nauseam. Republicans suggest that Obama did not label Benghazi a terrorist attack fast enough. We've heard it repeatedly, but there is no point--to their point. There is no big, over-arching theme onto which they can hang their baseless and flimsy assertions.
In short, it makes no sense.
Obama clearly and repeatedly has focused on the investigation and on obtaining justice. Americans saw at the debate, that Obama is obviously and deeply devastated by these losses; and that he is committed to hunting down these terrorists. That makes sense to Americans.
What the Republicans are doing--wildly flailing about with finger pointing and conspiracy cultivating--does not add up to with the American people.
The Republicans have run the tables on their Benghazi-Obama-blame-game. They've been pounding this ineffectual drum, with their hair on fire, for nearly a month now. Obama continues to trend upward in the polls.
It's not working for the Republicans. Instead of acknowledging that their flawed message is failing, Republicans foolishly turn up the volume. They refuse to accept that it doesn't matter if their bluster is soft or loud; or presented by Hannity or Limbaugh; or discussed by a gaggle of beauty queens on Fox News. Their central message doesn't make sense to sensible Americans--and turning up the volume only makes Republicans look like noisy toddlers banging their sippy cups on the crib railing.
Obama will continue moving forward with the investigation and working toward justice for Ambassador Stevens and our security personnel. This is how a commander-in-cheif manages an international tragedy.
The Republicans are managing this international tragedy like chumps in a frat house.
Despite their obvious failings--the right-wing noise machine will continue to exploit this tragedy for political gain.
It's not working. It's a shame. It's an American tragedy.
