Dereliction of Duty: Obama Did Nothing to Save American Lives in Benghazi--and Lied About It
"Nothing. That is what President Barack Obama did on the night of September 11, 2012, as terrorists attacked the U.S. consulate in Benghazi and killed four Americans, among them Ambassador Christopher Stevens. President Obama’s inaction was revealed in testimony before the Senate Armed Services Committee on Thursday by outgoing Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta and Joint Chiefs of Staff General Martin Dempsey."
Panetta: Obama not present on Night of Benghazi Attack Apparently he only voted "present" on the issue.
"When asked if Obama at least called to check in as the attack unfolded Panetta said "No."
"When asked if anyone from the White House called that night, Panetta said "No."
"According to Panetta, the President trusted that the Sec. of Defense and Joint Chiefs of Staff (JCOS) Chairman General Martin Dempsey were aware of what military assets were and weren't near Benghazi, so he left it "up to us." "
To digress a bit; That all sounds strangely like this incident:
These next from Lucianne:
The Twisted Truth on Obama's Benghazi Response "In a semi-rational world, no government could withstand the exposure of such inhumanity, not to mention such a total failure to carry out its primary duty -- namely, to protect its citizens against foreign aggression. In our current, thoroughly irrational world, there remains little doubt that Obama will emerge unscathed from Panetta's testimony, just as Hillary Clinton will remain untarnished after openly declaring, during her own belated testimony, that the clock has run out on any attempt to unravel the administration's web of lies about Benghazi, since "What difference -- at this point -- does it make?"

The Weekly Standard reports that Obama did not call or communicate in anyway with the defense secretary that night. "There were no calls about what was going on in Benghazi. He never called to check-in."
The Washington Times reports: "Administration critics suggest Mrs. Rice was given talking points by the White House as part of an effort to “cover up” what had actually occurred in Benghazi, since the attack came just as Mr. Obama’s re-election campaign was touting the president’s success in “decimating” the leadership of al Qaeda.
"But committee Chairman Carl Levin, Michigan Democrat, tried to steer proceedings away from those insinuations."

"Could Obama’s presidency be the most ill conceived in modern times? What kind of President leaves the people’s business in the middle of a press conference because his wife is waiting on him?
