Real, Honest-To-Goodness Heroes

Bill Whittle has commented on Facebook (I’ve now found a link) that Tyrone Woods and Glen Doherty, the former Navy SEALs killed in a mortar blast defending the US Consulate in Benghazi, took out 60 – yes, that’s SIXTY – jihadis before they were killed.

Two private civilians went to the aid of the US Mission, while the American military machine’s UAV – equipped with appropriate ordnance – circled overhead waiting for an order which never came.

Thank you, Tyrone Woods and Glen Doherty. You were heroes, possessed of bravery beyond my imagining. I hope that, should I be around when the day comes, I can acquit myself with some infinitesimal proportion of what it was that drove you two.

    There is nothing to confirm that they took out 60 jihadis, however they went, against orders, to the safe house/consulate/whatever-you-want -to-call-it, and fought off the assault for close on 7 hours and saved 35 US lives…………..while the C-in-C smoked dope/watched basket ball on ESPN/whatever, and the CIA were ordered not to send in help.

    Here’s Mark Stein on it.

      Actually it is quite sickening how this psychopath squatting in the White House has absolutely no qualms about sacrificing other human lives so that he can keep on living (his) the good life. *spit*

      • Ronbo says:

        @mawm:

        FINALLY! Someone besides myself has noticed that Obama is a raving psychopath.

        The psychopath in power (examples)….Hitler, Stalin, Castro, Lenin, Mao…

        This does not end well.

      • The Gantt Guy says:

        Yep. Totally agree. How the outcome can possibly be described as “not optimal” by the Choomleader-in-Chief simply defies belief.

        And FWIW, I’ve never thought him a psychopath. I reckon he’s more a sociopath with a deep-seated narcissistic disorder.

      • But – the BuTT – he’s ‘entitled- he’s a poor black guy-
        oh wait – he’s part white –
        oh wait- he was elected- by fools- to the highest office in the world–
        I could go on but I won’t–
        C-CS

        • Ronbo says:

          @CS:

          I think the word is mulatto to describe Obama, which is a person half white and half Negro.

          A black would be someone of of pure Negro blood…which is difficult to find in America after nearly 400 years of…
          shall we say…intercourse… :mrgreen: between European ancestry people and Africans.

          In fact, an African-American friend of mine in Germany was shocked – YES, SHOCKED! – while we were both stationed in Berlin in the 1970s with the U.S. Army, when a girl from the Congo – an attractive full blood Negro (and no doubt about it!) on a student Visa told him he was “colored.” She said and I quote, “I can’t date you! I see the white man in your face!”

          Of course, American whites, aren’t really “whites.” I was also told this while in Germany by a Berlin girl I dated. In my case, my pure European blood had been compromised because of my Jewish great grandmother. So she broke it off with me. What would mama and papa Kraut say?

          So there you have it, folks! America is a country where the blacks aren’t blacks and the whites aren’t white. :mrgreen:

            You bit the bullet there brother. You wouldn’t have wanted to dilute your blood with hers. After all it is from your Jewish great grandmother you inherited your intelligence, looks and sense of humor.

            The definitive method to analyze your genealogy is to have a DNA test. Pay for the complete test as far back as possible.

    I read reports of one man seen on the roof of the embassy manning a heavy machine gun. I bet he was wondering where the hell the support was.

    There were also laser locator beams spotted on rebel positions, which means someone must have been communicating with some expected aerial backup.

    But it never came and the defenders died.

    Meanwhile Obama and his treasonist mainstream media agents do all they can to suppress the truth. Hide it from the American people.

    I wasn’t that interested in Romney winning the election, but after witnessing the extent of the corruption of the electoral process, it has become clear to me that the utterly corrupt Obama and his lying minions have to go or its likely that all is lost.

    This gang of communist crooks cannot continue to control America.

    • Ronbo says:

      @Redbaiter:

      Are you aware of the rising tide of violence by the Left directed against Republicans?

      If Romney gets elected, and all the indications are that he wins in a landslide, the Left in America is gonna go completely ape. :wtf

      Already there have been mega threats of race war, assassination and bombings by the Leftists.

      Oh, and the new movie on Lincoln is set to premier in November.

      • Darin says:

        Ron,I figure if when Obama loses shortly after is when the fun starts.Soon as the riots get going good and cities start to burn here will come Obama with full on Marshall law and just the “Crisis” he needs to hold on.

        • Ronbo says:

          @Darin:

          Oh please enact martial law, Obama, and start CW II! :gunner

          This way we Patriots can legally go open season against the Left with no bag limit! :mrgreen:

          But seriously, if Obama loses the election and goes the martial law route, he may wake up the next morning with two million American hunters with guns aimed at the White House.

    • mawm says:

      Apparently there were 2 drones overhead, one might have been armed, and a C130.

      This issue makes me revisit the Bin Laden assasination. I’m convinced that Obama did not order that strike, it was done behind his back after numerous failures by him to give the go ahead before. Somebody needs to leak the truth. Hilliary?

      • The Gantt Guy says:

        Nah. If it’s anyone in that corrupt cabal from Arkansas, it will be Slick Willie. He loathes Obama – sees “his” party being destroyed by the Boy King, which is why he’s been campaigning against him.

      • Bill has been urging Hillary to release the documents that exonerate her. But Mrs. Clinton believes that if she does so the leftist base would blame her for bringing down the Presidency and she believes that when this breaks open she will be exonerated anyway. The use of the word “exonerated” has some interesting connotations when used by two lawyers and gives a strong indication that laws have been broken.

        Just what laws and who broke them is the question. We already know that the Obama administration doesn’t give a darn about the Hatch act nor laws regarding the intimidation of voters and that reveals an arrogance that only the left possesses. How much more arrogant are the Marxists and Maoists in the White House?

        My fear is that they are arrogant enough to waste American lives for political purposes and that’s what is at the heart of the cover-up. In all of the coverage that there has been of this issue, not once has Valerie Jarrett’s name come up. I suspect that long before this is over this will touch both she and David Axelrod as being amongst those who chose to introduce politics into national security and allowed those men to die. Neither have the character that would prohibit such a choice.

  4. D.T. says:

    Strange how it’s only Fox that are talking about this.The lamestream media don’t seem to care. At least Tyrone Wood’s dad is sticking up for him and giving shillary,that half caste of a Prez and that joke VP a going over.I still can’t believe people will vote for Barry but then again people will still vote for gingerella next year ( if she lasts ).

    • The Gantt Guy says:

      I’m actually kinda disappointed Mr Woods didn’t knock Biden on his ass with that “cue balls” comment.

  5. Ronbo says:

    The wrong people got killed on 9/11/12….and we all know the two beta male Leftist cowards standing at the top of the USA chain of command whose non-existence would be a plus for the country and the Free World. :twisted:

  6. Contempt says:

    Nothing other than total contempt for these traitors.

    It has now been revealed that Barack Hussein Obama did NOT go to sleep while men were dying in Benghazi. No he was watching the “action” in the Situation Room. I suppose he had a box or two of popcorn while this sick bastard (Excuse my Hebrew) watched 4 men die.

  9. Heltau says:

    Both should be recommended for the MOH for the actions taken against the enimey of the United States and its citizins.
    I will host two to their memories. :cheers :cheers

  10. The Gantt Guy says:

    There’s a *really* good summary of this outrage, the treason and the murder, available at Trevor Loudon’s place:

    http://www.trevorloudon.com/2012/10/presidential-depraved-indifference/

    Some quotes:

    “Not all monsters are the stuff of nightmares… Some reside in the White House and rule America. The Benghazi attack will dwarf Watergate – no one died in Watergate.”

    “put blame where blame is due – this lands squarely on the yellow, cowering, hunched form of Barack Hussein Obama.”

    “The man who made the “gutsy call” to have the SEALs take out bin Laden, made the gutless call to let bin Laden’s people take out our Ambassador and the SEALs defending him.”

    This, as is described in the article, is an act of “ross Presidential depraved indifference.” My hope is the Republican Congress doesn’t turn its yellow tail to the ramifications, and follows through with the appropriate investigations, prosecutions and executions.

  11. Redbaiter says:

    Hey Ronbo (and others)- read this blog.

    Detail on the attack and great salutes to the SEALS who died.

    • mawm says:

      Very brave men who made the greatest sacrifice without being asked and in doing so saved many lives. They stand out as men amongst men.
