Did it really happen?

On the same day as the second Presidential debate, there was a news alert that said the President and many intelligence figures heard a live feed of the embassy raid in Libya as it was happening. Since then, I have not heard anything about that in particular. What's happening?

    I keep hearing that there was a live video feed from Benghazi the night of the attack and it was watched, real time, by Charlene Lamb, the deputy secretary of state for diplomatic security in charge of protecting American embassies and consulates around the world. Lamb seemed extremely ill equipped during questionings by the House Oversight Committee which was aired live on CSPAN Oct 10th. The question that I don't hear anybody asking is, who's idea was it to blame it on an anti muslim video on youtube? Where did that originate...and why? It was a cooked up story because they knew it was a terrorist attack the second it happened and since Obama has been out tooting his horn about killing Bin Laden he would rather have as many people as possible (not any smart people) believe that that was the end of terrorism. They don't call the Fort Hood shootings terrorism either. The previous attacks in Benghazi went mostly ignored. There is some reason for not wanting to name anything Terrorism when it obviously it. And the youtube video finger pointing which then prompted many apologies to Islam by the Prez and Hillary for days on end is some sort of distraction technique. They even made a commercial to play on Libyan t.v. apologizing for it. This had nothing to do with a video (and even if it had there shouldn't have been a single apology for how "despicable" it was. Apologizing undermines our freedom of speech. Or B.O. feels compelled to apologize to islam when they attack us...which should also be looked into.) So there is something way funky going on and whatever it is they're trying to keep it on the down low until after the election. (Which should be a waving red flag to voters!!) Thanks to Romney for grilling B.O. about the Libyan attack during the debate it's all everybody is talking about and I think that's the opposite of what the white house was trying to accomplish. Sorry, I went off on a tangent there.

      My guess is that this development is unwelcome to the administration, and they will accomodate Miss Lamb's namesake and take her to the slaughterhouse. As for lies and coverups, the saddest thing is that it's so regular, we seem to have gotten used to it.
