surely it's been asked here before, but how could obama and his state department not have troops present and even beefed up at consulates and embassies in those muslim countries that just went through revolutions, aka arab spring, on september 11th. it is not even a stretch to ponder this on this key al quaeda anniversary date.

That is the question that is on the minds of most thinking Americans.

According to reliable news reports, there were threats that something was afoot in both Libya and Egypt over the past few days. Those threats were virtually ignored by the administration and the State Department.

Can you even begin to imagine where the mainstream media would be right now if a republican were living in the White House and this circumstance existed? Our television screens, and our newspaper headlines, would be screaming about how inept in foreign policy and the war on terror the president and his State Department are -- not to mention the fact that the media would constantly (and justifiably) be pointing out that the American president seems much more interested in campaigning for re-election than he is in protecting our diplomats and their staffs from Muslim fanatics when it appears that they are intent on exhibiting their inherent barbarism.

But their guy is in the White House so all we hear is criticism of his political opponent who has the courage to point to the tragic, potentially deadly, flaws of this administration and its policies of appeasement.
