BENGHAZI FALLOUT: OBAMA JOB APPROVAL TANKS
While the CorruptMedia does its worst to blackout the unfolding scandal over Libya, rather than stupidly playing defense on the left’s abortion-turf, New Media has done its best to report the Libya story and get it out there. This is called a counter-narrative, and with the help of a number of unforced errors on behalf of the Obama campaign, it might be having a negative effect on the most important number for an incumbent seeking reelection: job approval.In the Rasmussen poll that tracks the president’s approval rating amongst likely voters, over the last four days., Obama’s job approval has dipped from 50 to 47%. Meanwhile, his disapproval number has spiked to 52%. That’s five-point negative spread. Normally, I would ignore that as statistical noise. But what makes the Rasmussen drop noteworthy is a similar plunge in the Gallup Poll — which is even worse for the president because Gallup measures Obama’s approval ratings with “all adults.” Generally, the looser the screen the better Democrats poll. If Obama is cratering with “all adults,” his numbers are likely worse among the tighter screen of registered and likely voters. Today, Gallup has Obama upside down, 46-49% with all adults. Three days ago, Obama was above water, 51-44%. That’s a huge swing. Again, this might just be statistical noise. But when you look at the news coming out of Libya and the small, mean-spirited pettiness we’re seeing from the president and his campaign, there’s reason to believe this shift might be real. http://www.breitbart.com/Big-Government/2012/10/27/Obama-Job-Approval-Tanks |

Not even the lamestream media can shield him from Libya-gate. Zero is finished. “From time to time, the Tree of Liberty must be watered with the blood of Patriots and tyrants alike.” T. Jefferson
There is a lot more to this story that Obama is trying to cover up and he refused to rescue Ambassador Stevens and these fine men for a reason. He also waited to send investigators so that he knew enough time had passed that they would not find anything significant. All of this is about Obama covering his derriere before the election.
It was not a consulate – it was little more than a shack that was nondescript and had no defenses for a reason.
I think this will end up being Fast & Furious EAST. We armed the Libyan rebels who were infiltrated by Al Queda… and now the administration was trying to arm the rebels in Syria, who have also been infiltrated by Al Queda (have you seen the mass executions and beheadings?) probably by recycling the same weapons.
So, in order to unseat the dictators, this administration has been arming Al Queda? Maybe that is why so many Islamic extremists have had access to the White House recently? Perhaps that is why Ambassador Stevens met with a high-level official from Turkey an hour before this attack? Obama has cultivated a close relationship with Erdogan, the Islamist leader of previously secular Turkey.
How’s that for a scandal? You think Obama wants something like that coming out before the election? He has not only betrayed our troops as Commander In Chief, he has betrayed our country!
The truth certainly won’t come out before the election, but it will surely come out. Hopefully American voters will reject a president who refused to save the lives of four brave Americans who were serving his administration in a hostile land.
