And from Jake Tapper, at ABC News, "President Obama Begs Off Answering Whether Americans in Benghazi Were Denied Requests for Help."
In an interview with a Denver TV reporter Friday, President Obama twice refused to answer questions as to whether the Americans under siege in Benghazi, Libya on September 11, 2012, were denied requests for help, saying he’s waiting for the results of investigations before making any conclusions about what went wrong.With no luck. Watch it: "9NEWS questions President Obama on Libya attack." (Via Memeorandum.)
After being asked about possible denials of requests for aid, and whether it’s fair to tell Americans that what happened is under investigation and won’t be released until after the election, the president said, “the election has nothing to do with four brave Americans getting killed and us wanting to find out exactly what happened. These are folks who served under me who I had sent to some very dangerous places. Nobody wants to find out more what happened than I do.”
President Obama told KUSA-TV’s Kyle Clarke large that “we want to make sure we get it right, particularly because I have made a commitment to the families impacted as well as to the American people, we’re going to bring those folks to justice. So, we’re going to gather all the facts, find out exactly what happened, and make sure that it doesn’t happen again but we’re also going to make sure that we bring to justice those who carried out these attacks.”
Clark pressed again...
That is an amazing interview. Almost no one in the national press is doing interviews like that. Jeez, that is an amazing clip.
And remember, I don't believe the president want to bring the terrorists to justice, and the historical record supports that contention. See: "Does Obama Really Want to Bring the Benghazi Killers to Justice?"
