I can't quite figure out what this ninny is asking for.
You folks take a shot at it.

HELP! I am getting slammed on FB over the lack of security in Benghazi...
Does anybody know who is in charge of consular security? Everybody knows that I am an Obama supporter and I have been hammering Romney for his comments of the past few days. Well, they are hammering back and THEY are NOT unarmed! I have had at least four articles cited on my wall that state that security at the Benghazi consulate was too light and that the Libyan security guards laid down their weapons and fled when the consulate was attacked.

Two of the articles being cited:
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-middle-east-19605322
http://world.time.com/2012/09/13/did-the-u-s-consulate-in-benghazi-not-have-enough-security/

The other two articles are ones that have been posted here on the subject already. I have tried googling it several different ways, but all I am getting is information from the past couple of days and right wing bloggers. (BTW...why do right wing bloggers always pop up first? Aren't there any left wing bloggers??)0 All your interwebs are belong to us.
What?  :???:

2. People died so there was not enough security or enough caution. EOS
It has happened before and it will happen again. I have close family members who have worked for the State Department, including overseas. They are always at risk and they know it, but yet they serve.

I would not fight with those on facebook - they sound like assholes. 
Links provided to news stories are fighting??
Must ignore truth in stories.
Nothing to see there, just listen to DU.

Small fire, probably won't go far.

Guess what, DUmmie? It's because they are RIGHT and you are WRONG. See, the right wing bloggers actually write things as they happen, and don't wait around for marching orders from the White House or MSM for spin. So, quit trying to stand up to facts when you have none to back you up. Idiot.

HELP!! I need for you to change reality for me!! 

Anybody that goes to work in the middle east, representing the USA, and is not heavily secured at all times is being a Pollyanna, naive moonbat.  Oh, brown people can do no wrong!  They love us now that Barack Husein Obama is president!  What could go wrong with my brothers in humanity?" 


That would make a good sig line.  "We are hammering back and we are NOT unarmed."

Barak Heussein Obama, Super Security and Geo-Political Genius and Hillary Clinton. Not Mitt Romney as he is a private citizen.
When you are the beneficiary of someone’s kindness and generosity, it produces a sense of gratitude and community.

When you are the beneficiary of a policy that steals from someone and gives it to you in return for your vote, it produces a sense of entitlement and dependency.
