'If four Americans get killed, it's not OPTIMAL': Obama's extraordinary response to Comedy Central question about shifting story after Benghazi attack
By Toby Harnden In Washington
| President Barack Obama, during an interview shown on Comedy Central, has responded to a question about his administration's confused communication after the Benghazi attack, by saying: 'If four Americans get killed, it’s not optimal.'
Obama was speaking to Jon Stewart of The Daily Show for a programme that was broadcast last night. Stewart, a liberal whose young audience is full of potential voters prized by the Obama campaign, asked the president about his handling of the aftermath of the Benghazi attack.
But Obama's response sparked outrage among Republican commentators including the website Breitbart and prompted a vicious backlash from the Twitter community.

The conversation begins at 3.00 minute mark, the specific remarks begin at about the 5.00 minute mark. You decide.

What the heck does that mean, not optimal? Did he mean that the slaughter of our Ambassador and the other 3 was not a good thing for his legacy or candidacy?
I can't describe the insult to true human reason and compassion that statement is.
AS every day passes, more and more of the Obama onion is peeled and revealed to America. The question is, how many Americans will show up next month at the polls to vote and vote this interloping foreign imposter out.
