The Difference It Makes

I got this in an email from a long time friend of this blog:

“A bump in the road”…. remember that callous statement?
I do recall, the President referring to the Benghazi incident as “a bump in the road.”

Today I heard an ex-Navy Seal being interviewed on Fox News 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 the public knowing the truth about the whole affair.
The poem was written by a MARINE CORPS Officer.

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 our 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 twenty
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 ’til 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”.

So will this reach every American with a computer? Or do we act like the press and give a pass to the incompetent people who literally sat there in the White House and watched the Seal’s execution on live streaming video and did absolutely nothing? The Obama Administration obviously won’t be held accountable because we apparently accept Hilary Clinton’s statement, “What difference does it make?”

At times, I despair that anything matters, at this or any other point, to the American people but with the Kardashians and Bruce Jenner are up to these days.
