I can't even IMAGINE reporters/news anchors/other pols questioning the Bush administration

on what they knew and when they knew it right after the 9/11/01 attacks, yet some Repubs are calling on Susan Rice to resign for "misleading the American people" regarding what happened in Benghazi to our embassy?! If Romney brings up the Benghazi attack during the debate, all Obama should say is, "Aren't 17 of your 24 foreign policy advisers former BUSH advisers? And didn't THEY have Bush send our troops into IRAQ on false intel-after 9/11 happened on their watch?"

They've been spending the past 4 years attacking President Obama for anything and everything, including things that they shamelessly let Bush get away with (or didn't mention at all)- in spades.

they conveniently don't COUNT that one, 'cause "Who could've known"-except for the multiple warnings (there were warnings BEFORE the Aug. 6th PDB).

Then they say, "Everyone thought we'd be hit again after that day, but we STOPPED attacks and we've kept you safe ever since." BS.
