Excerpt:
During his testimony this week regarding the Benghazi Massacre that left four dead Americans including the firt U.S. Ambassador to be killed in the line of duty in over 30 years, outgoing Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta offered some subtle distinctions between what he states as fact, and what the Obama White House told the American public in the days and weeks after the Benghazi attack.

Here are excerpts of Panetta’s testimony from The Washington Times: ...
Defense Secretary Leon E. Panetta on Thursday revealed he personally broke the news to President Obama that the U.S. diplomatic post in Benghazi, Libya, was under attack last year — but he and the president didn’t speak the rest of the night as the assault on the compound unfolded.
Now place that very clear statement by Leon Panetta against Barack Obama’s own description of his actions the day after the attack during his now infamous Rose Garden speech on September 12th:
Leon Panetta indicated this week to Congress that after the president was informed of the Benghazi ATTACK, Barack Obama went to bed. That is a far cry from the description Obama gave of himself the next day. I have emphasized the word attack by Mr. Panetta as well – he stated he informed the president that the U.S. diplomatic post was “UNDER ATTACK”. That is a very important descriptive term when placed alongside the fact Barack Obama then ignored the event and went to bed. It indicates the action was ongoing – that those ultimately killed in Benghazi were fighting for their lives. The attack against them and against the U.S. consulate represents an attack against the United States – and Barack Obama DID NOTHING.

I have directed my Administration to provide all necessary resources to support the security of our personnel in Libya, and to increase security at our diplomatic posts around the globe. While the United States rejects efforts to denigrate the religious beliefs of others, we must all unequivocally oppose the kind of senseless violence that took the lives of these public servants. ...
