Hillary Clinton thinks that with 4 dead Americans, "what difference at this point does it make."
Sadly, she won't understand this poem. I recall the President referring to the Benghazi incident as "a bump in the road."
Today I heard an ex-Navy Seal being interviewed regarding a book he has written about how to handle crisis situations in our lives. At the end of the interview he asked if he could make a comment on Benghazi and, of course, the anchor said yes.
He then thanked Fox News for keeping the Benghazi story in the news, since other news organizations are not. He said the Seals who died deserve that the public know the truth about the whole affair . . . but, the way things go these days that seems unlikely.
This poem was written by a MARINE CORPS Officer (ANONYMOUS). Very thought provoking and poignant. Please read it and pass it on . . . it's one way to keep the issue alive.
The Battling Boys of Benghazi
We're the Battling Boys of Benghazi ,
no fame, no glory, no paparazzi.
Just a fiery death in a blazing hell
defending the country we loved so well.
It wasn't our job, but we answered the call,
fought to the consulate and scaled the wall.
We pulled 20 countrymen from the jaws of fate,
led them to safety and stood at the gate.
Just the two of us, and foes by the score,
but we stood fast to bar the door.
Three calls for reinforcement, but all were denied,
so we fought and we fought and we fought till we died.
We gave our all for our Uncle Sam
but Barack Obama didn't give a damn
just two dead Seals who carried the load
no thanks to us - we were just "bumps in the road".
This e-mail should be circulated as much as we can possibly keep it going. I think this is the feeling of the general population and it should be pursued until something is done with the incompetency in Washington who literally sat in the White House and State Department watching their execution on live streaming video and did absolutely nothing to save or rescue them.
May God Bless our troops.

Re: May God Bless our troops.
I am going to add something to this from my own! All you died in the wool libertarians. I agree with most of you. But you cannot win a war without many small battles. Democrats and Republicans are having their strings pulled by the same people. Different talking points, same agenda! Identify and destroy by legal means. Do your best to educate the young, as they are the foundation of which we are going to have to rely on. If we fail, then not only will we have to live with the consequences, but they will too!
I have faith that God will intervene and put our country back on the right track!
Right is right and wrong is wrong!! Teach the difference to the younger generation and we will be fine! If we fail, we will all have to live with the consequences!

Re: May God Bless our troops.
Some believe that if we just mind our own business no one will bother us but history has proven over and over again that that isn't true.A nation with a powerful military that can respond to all threats with overwhelming force is what keeps us safe .Every man,woman and child in America owe our troops a debt of gratitude we can't pay and a tremendous amount of respect for keeping us safe and free .Their lives are just beginning but yet they join the military and go off to war and some never return.This country has some serious problems but we'll know when the end is near when our young people refuse to fight for the U.S.of A.. I believe that GOD will bless our troops as long as we keep praying for them.

Nothing much to add that you both didn't nail!
Sadly, Peace will only be obtained through superior fire power.
God bless our troops and you all, see you all soon!
