Wanker of the Day: Benghazi Obsessives

This Benghazi thing is so far over the top now. The right is treating it like some My Pet Goat moment or something. It’s hard to even respond to these dimwits because I don’t want to in any way diminish the importance of the people who died. But I wonder if they think the president cancels his calls with foreign leaders every time a group of soldiers or contractors in Afghanistan come under fire or are besieged? Americans are attacked every day. What was unusual about the attack in Benghazi was that it succeeded in killing a U.S. ambassador. There was nothing that could have been done for him. The president ordered Defense Secretary Panetta to do what he could, and he did.

I also love how they managed to criticize the president for not meeting with Netanyahu and now they are criticizing him for talking to him for an hour on the night of the Benghazi raids. Coming and going.
