Obama stopped the Benghazi massacre by taking active action in Libya
No special forces blood for oil seems to have been reported spilled

boots were on the ground calling in the strikes in order to target these areas

oh, this was on the drawing boards years before Obama said go. I'm glad he didn't wait to get authorization from congress as the rebellion would have been crushed within hours of Gaddafi's troops reaching Benghazi.

all moot point now.

or is it ?
