    Nazi science was fairly advanced and "modern" and (brutally) efficient.

    But this is another one of your diversions.

    Seriously?

    Your comparison is odious.

    I find your insinuation really unpleasant.
    I made no comparison. Try to keep time here.
    You suggested science from that period was clumsy and backward.

    What truth do you think is being hidden?

    Crazy Muslims took advantage of lax security and knocked off an ambassador and three others. Are you expecting something more damning than that?

    ... Because unless you're expecting, "Obama let them die for some yet-to-be-revealed political advantage," I can't imagine exactly what you think is getting covered up.

    Nice. I'm sure his "longtime friend" appreciates the relationship with his daughter:

    You compared a peer-reviewed brain scan study

    www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0052970

    to the science of Nazi Germany.

    The "political advantage" is in covering up how badly the administration was caught off guard ON SEPT. 11!!, how poorly it responded (when the "3 a.m. phone call" came in, Hillary hung up and Obama went to bed) and how much it immediately started working on covering up its incompetence.

    Unlike Watergate, where the worst part of the crime was the coverup, this one has fatal incompetence thrown in along with the cover-up.

    Well, lefties, your overhaul of America is well underway, both stateside and abroad. Iran's nuclear ability is up a notch, we have the Islamists running Egypt, Libya, and soon to be Syria. North Korea isn't getting much more than a whimper from the Messiah. Why don't you go ahead and bring all the Mexicans up from the border, give them citizenship, bring their drugs and dealers so we can tax them, and the rest of us will go claim Mexico?

    Republicans have been trying to get back at the Democrats for Watergate for the last 40 years. And they've never succeeded because the American public knows that trying to rig an election is one of the worst attacks on American civil liberties that there is.

    Compared that with Benghazi, where an Ambassador and three others died in an attack. Attacks of which there have been quite a few on foreign soil over the last 14 years, which the GOP seems to want to ignore. And, as horrible as the possibility of lying about four deaths goes, it still doesn't compare to the actual proof of the series of lies that led to 4,488 deaths.

    Make it easier. You pack and leave.

    Yes, the death of three Americans in an attack that this administration did nothing to prevent and desperately wants to cover up that fact is no big deal.

    I'm sure that's great comfort to the families of the victims Obama left to die.
