I got this in an email from a long time friend of this blog:<\/p>\n
\u201cA bump in the road”…. remember that callous statement?
\n I do recall, the President referring to the Benghazi incident as “a bump in the road.” <\/p>\nToday I heard an ex-Navy Seal being interviewed on Fox News regarding a book
\nhe 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.
\n He then thanked Fox News for keeping the
\nBenghazi 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.
\n The poem was written by a MARINE CORPS Officer.
\n(ANON).<\/p>\nTHE BATTLING BOYS
\nOF BENGHAZI
\n We’re the
\nbattling boys of Benghazi
\nNo
\nfame, no glory, no paparazzi.
\nJust a fiery death in a blazing
\nhell
\nDefending our country
\nwe loved so well.
\n It wasn’t our
\njob, but we answered the call,
\nfought to the Consulate and scaled the
\nwall.
\nWe pulled twenty
\nCountrymen from the jaws of fate
\nLed them to safety, and stood at
\nthe gate.
\n Just the two of
\nus, and foes by the score,
\nBut we stood fast to bar the
\ndoor.
\nThree calls for
\nreinforcement, but all were denied,
\nSo we fought, and we fought, and
\nwe fought ’til we died.
\n We gave our all
\nfor our Uncle Sam,
\nBut
\nBarack Obama didn’t give a damn.
\nJust two dead seals who carried
\nthe load
\nNo thanks to us……… we were just “Bumps In The Road”.<\/p>\nSo 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?”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
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.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
