Nice Try Libs, Romney’s Hats Are Not Made In China…

Buzzfeed "This photo comparing a Romney cap made in China and an Obama cap made in the U.S. is going viral online."
But it is nothing more than a Photoshop fake, a libscam. Pictured below is an actual non-doctored Romney cap:
"The Romney campaign website doesn't even have tan hats for sale right now. So the image could either be a total fake or a hat made by an outside group."

Just thinking about how our SEALs fought and died in Benghazi

Mark Steyn; Benhoozi? "In the smoking ruins of that consulate in Benghazi, Glen Doherty and Tyrone Woods fought for hours and killed 60 of the enemy before they were overwhelmed, waiting for the cavalry that never came. They’re still waiting – for Candy Crowley, David Gregory, Bob Schieffer, and George Stephanopoulos to do their job."
Political Cartoons by Eric Allie
They called for help  "At that point, they called again for military support and help because they were taking fire at the CIA safe house, or annex. The request was denied. There were no communications problems at the annex, according those present at the compound. The team was in constant radio contact with their headquarters. In fact, at least one member of the team was on the roof of the annex manning a heavy machine gun when mortars were fired at the CIA compound. The security officer had a laser on the target that was firing and repeatedly requested back-up support from a Spectre gunship, which is commonly used by U.S. Special Operations forces to provide support to Special Operations teams on the ground involved in intense firefights....

From Blackfive; Former Delta Operator on "The Panetta Doctrine" or also known as "The Dumbest S--t I Ever Heard!"
"Got an email from the retired former Delta operator in the Benghazi post. And yes, he mis-spells the SecDef's name on purpose."

"This is about doctrine, specifically the Obama Administration's doctrine, and how it doesn't work in the real world:"...
In all that time, I never hit an objective where two Navy SEALs were already there and feeding me all the information I could ever want! Hell, that wouldn’t even be a raid, it would be a link-up!

What more information do you need? Or was this never about information at all? Was it really the president deciding that the lives of four Americans wasn’t worth as much as a campaign talking point?

A post from Pundit and Pundette included this:
If you need a reminder to buy bottled water and tape the widows before a hurricane, Obama is your man. If you’re running a machine gun, soon to be covered in your own blood, on the roof of a building under fire in Libya at 3 a.m., if you’ve called three times over a period of almost seven hours for air cover that is within a couple of hours away (or, as we might learn, in the armed drone directly above) — well, you’re on your own. The president will get back to you.
FACT CHECK: Did the Navy Seals who died in the Benghazi attacks kill 60 jihadis?

I regret to tell you: "In this original post the claim has no supporting sources that tell where the claim originated."
"According to a source on the ground at the time of the attack, the team inside the CIA annex had captured three Libyan attackers and was forced to hand them over to the Libyans. U.S. officials do not know what happened to those three attackers and whether they were released by the Libyan forces.

Blackfive  "The only way I buy that the former SEAL was lasing the target without an active asset to synch to and destroy the target...maybe, just maybe, it was a last stand move. Maybe he did that to give the inbounds a target if he didn't make it..."

In case you wonder what someone on the ground would use to "paint a target" for air strikes, below is something like what would be used.
Laser targeting systems "The IZLID 1000P is a long-range IR laser for pointing and marking by military forces on the ground and in the air. A simple adjustment turns the laser into an IR illuminator for rapid target identification with night vision goggles (NVGs) and IR sensors. It is ideal as a command pointer, for target marking, and for visual communication between ground forces and aircraft. Overcoming virtually all ambient lighting conditions, the IZLID 1000P laser places a very powerful and tightly focused IR dot on the target. The bright beam is often used by a Tactical Air Control Party (TACP) or Joint Terminal Attack Controller (JTAC) to communicate visually with aircraft and direct airstrikes."

LOW PROFILE IN BENGHAZI: WHEN POLITICAL CORRECTNESS KILLS  "At 4 am the two ex-SEALs were killed by a barrage of well-placed mortar fire as they maintained a desperate overwatch  on the roof of the annex. When the shooting abruptly stopped, the Benghazi mission and annex were abandoned, and sensitive papers picked over by the curious.  Al Qaeda quickly took credit for the attack, and within two hours cables notified the White House of this fact."

The President's prayer for our SEALs in harm's way
Now I lay me down to sleep.
I pray those SEALs aren’t in too deep.
But if they die before I wake,
I’m sure I’ll get a media break.

Now I lay me down to sleep.
I hope this doesn’t turn to (bleep).
Let others watch throughout the night.
I’ve got an early Vegas flight.

Now I lay me down to sleep.
I fear the price they’ll pay is steep.
But look at it my personal way,
It won’t be my most optimal day.

Now I lay me down to sleep.
I know my flacks can surely keep
The truth from getting in the way,
Until polls close Election Day.

Now I lay me down to sleep,
To dream of goals that I must keep;
To close my ears to all your pleas,
As I bring America to her knees.

Cal Thomas: "Who's a racist?"

World Magazine  "The Post-ABC News pollsters, who appear to see so much through racially-colored glasses, might have asked some of those white voters who supported President Obama four years ago why they are supporting Mitt Romney now. I would be willing to wager most, if not all, would say the president's performance has not lived up to their expectations or his hype about hope and change.
"For supporters of President Obama, including Republican-in-name-only Lawrence Wilkerson, to suggest that Republicans want him out of the White House simply because he's black, is a desperate attempt by a faltering campaign to change the subject from the president's record and lack of vision for the future."

The hidden real truth about Benghazi

Canada Free Press  "Most people know that we’ve been lied to about the attacks in Benghazi, but few realize the extent of those lies or the hidden secrets they cover. After all, the lie is different at every level. Thanks to a well placed source with extensive knowledge about the attack, the disturbing truth is slowly beginning to emerge and is lining up with information contained in my previous articles published here weeks ago (Here, Here and Here). The truth reveals the most serious situation in the world today as it involves the interests and destinies of us all."
....
"As daylight approached with no response from the U.S. and no aid to the Americans under fire, the attack teams had to disperse into the cover of the remaining darkness, but not before their mission was accomplished. And sadly, it was."

Benghazi and our media

"The mainstream media's silence on the Benghazi disaster reached deafening levels on Sunday, as four out of the five major weekly news shows--with the exception of Fox News Sunday--failed to raise the issue. Only Bob Schieffer of CBS gave the issue serious consideration, and only after it was raised by Sen. John McCain."
"When the Benghazi issue did surface, other than on Fox, it was invariably brought up by Republican guests, and then deflected by the hosts, who largely ignored new stories this week that implicated the White House in the decision not to intervene to save the life of U.S. Ambassador Chris Stevens and other American staff.

"Here is how the Sunday shows covered the issue:"    Read more...

 Media Blackout: Why Obama Dodged the Libya Question
"President Obama ran into a buzzsaw yesterday while doing a round-robin of satellite interviews with local news outlets in crucial swing states -- and by "buzzsaw," I mean that rare form of species known as a "real reporter." Kyle Clark of Colorado's KUSA actually asked Obama about the latest revelations out of Libya. According to Fox News, the three requests for help made during the seven-hour attack on our consulate in Benghazi were met with orders from U.S. officials to "stand down." Wisely, Obama dodged this question entirely."

Pundits Mock Libya Story as 'Utterly Contrived,' 'October Mirage'   "...a compilation of the most outrageous, sometimes humorous, quotes from the liberal meda. This week's lowlights: Liberal pundits insist that the unfolding details of Obama's incompetent handling of the September 11 attack in Benghazi is an "utterly contrived" story, an "October Mirage."
"The ever-wacky Chris Matthews is even sticking with Team Obama's now discredited first response: "Everybody knows it's about the video. It's all about the video." "

An Obama Halloween

An Obama Halloween
T’was the night before elections, And all thru’ the town,
Tempers were flaring Emotions ran up and down.
I, in my bathrobe With a cat in my lap,
Had shut off the TV, tired of political crap.
When all of a sudden, There arose such a noise,
I peered out my window, Saw Obama and his boys
They had come for my wallet, They wanted my pay
To hand out to others Who had not worked a day!
He snatched up my money, And quick as a wink,
Jumped back on his bandwagon As I gagged from the stink.
He then rallied his henchmen Who were pulling his cart.
I could tell they were out To tear my country apart!
‘On Fannie, on Freddie, On Biden and Ayers!
On Acorn, on Pelosi’ He screamed at the pairs!
They took off for his cause, And as they flew out of sight, I heard him laugh at a nation Who wouldn’t stand up and fight!
So I leave you to think on this one final note…IF YOU DON’T WANT SOCIALISM, GET OUT AND VOTE !!!!
You have to read this one to believe it.

Halloween treat: re-elect President Barack Obama, or your children will live in an America where “sick people just die” and “oil fills the sea.”


Remember this Obasong from 2008?  You can play this outside your house on Halloween for the trick-or-treaters.
