The Blame Game: Obama Deputy Campaign Manager Stephanie Cutter Says Benghazi Is Only an Issue ‘Because of Romney and Ryan’

First it was a tape and now the Obama Administration is blaming Romney and Ryan for Benghazi?

Just when you thought that the Obama Administration could not get any worse … Barack Obama deputy campaign manager Stephanie Cutter says that the only reason why the Benghazi, Libya consulate attack is an issue is because of Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan.

UNBELIEVABLE.

The Obama White House is incapable of taking responsibility for anything, including the lack of security and refused requests for a Marine detail in Benghazi. The result, a terrorist attack on the anniversary of 9-11 that say US Ambassador Stevens and three other murdered. Four people are dead and the Obama White House and State Department look like incompetent fools and Cutter wonders why this is a story? If we actually had a non-bias media, this story would be a far bigger scandal than Watergate ever was. The deceit from the Obama WH is beyond comment. First they play the blame game on the economy and now the aftermath of the deaths of four Americans? As aptly stated by the Lonely Conservative, “it is reckless and irresponsible is leaving our diplomats in an unsafe area without security and then lying about it.”

STEPHANIE CUTTER: In terms of the politicization of this — you know, we are here at a debate, and I hope we get to talk about the debate — but the entire reason this has become the political topic it is, is because of Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan. It’s a big part of their stump speech. And it’s reckless and irresponsible what they’re doing.

BROOKE BALDWIN: But, Stephanie, this is national security. As we witnessed this revolution last year, we covered it–

CUTTER: It is absolutely national security–

BALDWIN: –it is absolutely pertinent. People in the American public absolutely have a right to get answers.

UPDATE I: The Romney campaign responded to Cutter’s remark in a statement Thursday afternoon:

“President Obama’s campaign today said that Libya is only an issue because of Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan. They’re wrong. The reason it is an issue is because, for the first time since 1979, an American ambassador was assassinated and President Obama’s foreign policy strategy of ‘leading from behind’ is failing. This administration has continually misled the American public about what happened in Benghazi and, rather than be truthful about the sequence of events, has instead skirted responsibility and dodged questions. The American people deserve straight answers about this tragic event and a president who can provide leadership, not excuses.”

In the end, this is what a failed Administration does, blame and deflect from the past four years. The America People deserve answers and the Obama WH just wants to stall and play a four corners offense and hope they win reelection.

What is Wrong With These People? Dem Candidate Senator Sherrod Brown Accuses Jewish Republican Oppenent Josh Mandelof Being “Candidate of Big Lie” (Yes, Big Lie is a Nazi Term)

Sorry, but the Democrat Party has a serious character flaw … Yea, this is Obama’s party of civility.

Just how many Democrats are going to show just what human scum they really are and compare their opponents or Republicans to Nazi’s? Anyone that would due so has no concept of what a Nazi is and the trivialization of what this repugnant group of people perpetrated on Jews and the world. The latest piece of human debris Democrat Ohio Senator who claims in the ad below that his GOP challenger is the candidate of the “Big Lie”.  Sick. The “big lie”  But why would we think that this POS would stoop to anything so low? In March 2011 Brown publicly apologized after comparing Republican governors pushing union reforms to Hitler and Stalin in a speech on the Senate floor. So how does Ohio reward such a scum bag? Why elect him of course.

Senator Sherrod Brown’s campaign issued a new attack ad Friday against his rival, Republican Josh Mandel. In it, the Ohio Democrat accuses Mandel of using the “big lie” strategy in his campaign. The term “big lie” was coined by Adolf Hitler and is commonly associated with Nazi propaganda.

Mandel is Jewish.

The ad states: “Josh Mandel: He has become the candidate of the big lie.” It cites a Columbus Dispatch columnist as the source for the quote. It argues that Mandel has made numerous false statements about his career as state treasurer, among other distortions.

The voters talk about how they are tired of the meanness of politics and they give Congress a 9% approval rating. Really? If America was sincere about their whining polls stated like Ohio would vote this low life out of office instead of rewarding this nonsense with with another 6 year term. So let’s understand this, the Democrat party was made heinous, disgusting and idiotic Nazi references and accusations against the GOP, not once, not twice, but three times in the last week. The Democrat party took God and Jerusalem out of their platform in the DNC convention, yet Jews vote overwhelming vote for Democrats. Makes all the sense in the world. Not.

The Chairman of the California Democratic Party John Burton Compares GOPs To Nazi Propaganda Chief Joseph Goebbels (VIDEO)

I guess this is what President Barack Obama was talking about when he referenced civility in politics … Welcome to Obama “Hope and Change” in 2012.

John Burton, the Chairman of the California Democratic Party provided more smear politics yesterday when he compared the GOP to Nazi propagandist Joseph Goebbels. Democrat John Burton took the high road, for Moonbat Democrats, and smeared GOP Vice-Presidential Candidate Paul Ryan for “lying” about the Janesville GM Plant, even though Paul Ryan was not lying.

The Chairman of the California Democratic Party already had political pundits, delegates and rivals buzzing a day before the Democratic National Convention formally opened in Charlotte, North Carolina, after telling KCBS Radio exclusively that Republican tactics had been akin to Nazi propaganda.

“They lie and they don’t care if people think they lie,” Chairman of the California Democratic Party John Burton told KCBS Monday in Charlotte. “As long as you lie, Joseph Goebbels, the big lie, you keep repeating it, you know.”

LISTEN TO A DEMOCRAT LOON IN THEIR OWN WORDS

Really? The DNC Convention has just begun and we have Democrats acting with such vile behavior.  But should it really come as a surprise to the Republican party? As alliterated at Powerline, put a bunch for freaks together in one place and you get a freak show. Mitt Romney has been called in political ads, by Democrat pundits and surrogates of Obama  a felon, a tax cheat, and a murderer. One would naturally think that being compared to a Nazi was right up their ally.

UPDATE I: The GOP demands an apology for outrageous Nazi comment. California Democrat Chair Burton makes an non-apology apology regarding the Nazi propaganda comment.

UPDATE: In response to the uproar over his (below) comments Monday, California Democratic Party Chair John Burton issued this statement:

“To correct press reports of my recent comments about Republican lies, I did not call Republicans Nazis nor would I ever. In fact, I didn’t even use the word.

“If Mitt Romney, Paul Ryan, or the Republicans are insulted by my describing their campaign tactic as the big lie – I most humbly apologize to them or anyone who might have been offended by that comment.”

Really, this is the demeanor of the lunatic LEFT and their idea of an apology? I guess it all depends of what Hitler, is? You would compare some one to a Nazi propagandist by name, but claim that you did not call them a Nazi. It is really sad what the Democrat party has become. The Moonbats have become the main stream in the party.

The Gateway Pundit states, “Their policies suck. The economy is in shambles. They bet the farm on the Stimulus and it failed. They’ve hit rock bottom.” That pretty much sums it up in a “NUT” shell.

Obama’s Spinal Tap Moment, “Their appeal is becoming more selective” … Obama Campaign Remarks on Small Crowds: ‘We are intentionally limiting crowd size at rallies”

THIS IS SPINAL TAP BARACK OBAMA’S REELECTION … Other wise now known as THIS IS “SPIN”AL TAP …

Barack Obama, truly Lost in Smallness … What a difference four years makes, from huge, standing room only crowds to well, not. However, the spin-misters at the Obama Campaign have an explanation to the woeful small and pitiful crowd, ‘We are intentionally limiting crowd size at rallies.” Of course it has nothing to do with the enthusiasm gap where the GOP base is more jazzed that the Democrats.

However, President Barack Obama and Vice President Joe Biden are not drawing the crowds they once could. The New York Times reported that the Obama campaign said that it is intentionally limiting crowd size at their events because of security and cost:

“We have plenty of time for big rallies,” a campaign spokeswoman, Jen Psaki, said between the rallies on Thursday.      “Our focus right now is on exciting our supporters and winning over undecided voters and the smaller and medium-size events are the best venue to accomplish that because the president can closely engage with the crowd.”

Big rallies are expensive, especially given the logistical and security challenges for a president as opposed to a mere United States senator. And Obama campaign operatives, both at the Chicago headquarters and in swing states where Mr. Obama recently has stumped, say the campaign intentionally limits crowds by restricting tickets. The reason is to allow the president to better connect with supporters, aides say.

Who would have thought that Team Obama would have used a slit from the movie, ‘This is Spinal Tap’? Then again, the film maker was a huge lib, Rob Reiner. However, did they realize the movie was a parody? It would seem that Team Obama has used the line,  “their appeal is becoming more selective” to describe the waning crowd sizes at Obama and Biden political events?

Marty DeBergi (rockumentary director): The last time Tap toured America, they where, uh, booked into
       10,000 seat arenas, and 15,000 seat venues, and it seems that now,
       on their  current tour they’re being booked into 1,200 seat
       arenas, 1,500 seat arenas, and uh I was just wondering,
       does this mean uh…the popularity of the group is waning?

Ian Faith (Spinal Tap maganer):   Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no…no, no, not at all. I, I, I just think
       that the.. uh.. their appeal is becoming more selective.

Who cannot see the obvious comparison and just laughing themselves silly? Purposely and intentionally limiting the size of the rallies to save money. What type of fools do they have this time in 2012 at Team Obama? As the Lonely Conservative aptly states, since when did Obama ever care about saving money? All one needs to do is take a look at out national debt to understand that falsehood.

Gone is the “Hope & Change” idealistic, fresh and edgy and  imagery of Obama changing the way Washington does business. Hello to the real Obama “Rope & Chains”, Chicago-style, hateful, lying, in the gutter politics. It has caused many on the Right to be more than a little giddy to see the Obama campaign implode before our very eyes. If Team Obama cannot get their base out in November, this election will not be as close as many pundits are calling it.

Obama is no longer “fresh” or “edgy”.  He is yesterday’s news and all those chumps who were once enamored by the new kid are now broke and unemployed.  Their houses are sitting in foreclosure and they can’t afford gas for their tanks.  They’ve had a group epiphany, “it really was just words”.

Yep, they’re staying away-in droves.  Nobody wants a sign hanging around their neck that says “I’m with the Loser”.  A wise and dear man once said it best, “He sucks.”  Yes, yes he does.  And with all due apologies to Instapundit, I’m felling more than a bit cocky.

As reported by Doug Ross, the actual level of support for the Divider-in-Chief is commiserate to the crowd that he can attract and  it appears the only places President Obama is welcomed with open arms are high schools and community colleges, both beneficiaries of wild amounts of stimulus spending. This makes the recent polling data of +5, +7 and +9 Democrat sampling even more suspect. With the enthusiasm being on the side of the GOP, polling that samples more Dems is just simply not credible.

UPDATE I: I did not realize that when I made this post that Mark Steyn and Powerline were going down the same path, although great minds think alike. However, seeing that ‘This is Spinal Tap’ is one of my favorite comedies of all time, despite the fact that it was directed by uber-lib Rob Reiner of “Meathead” fame from All in the Family. It’s not like we have not made an Obama – Spinal Tap in the past.

I guess the next thing we will hear from Team Obama is that they canceled the Boston political gig, but don’t worry, it’s not like Boston is a college town.

Even Liberal Boston Globe Demands Apology from Obama’s VP for Biden’s comment … “going to put y’all back in chains”

Houston Barack Obama – Joe Biden you got a problem … So this is what has become of ‘Hope & Change’.

When the far left, liberal pages of the Boston Globe demand an apology for Joe Biden’s ill-advised and race-based comments, “going to put y’all back in chains,” the Barack Obama reelection team has a huge problem. It would seem that Biden may have finally crossed the line of “Joe being Joe” gaffes. Normally Biden is given a free pass for his gaffes no matter if they were just ignorance like not knowing what state he was campaigning in or the correct century for that fact. But also making such racial profiling stereo-types comments about Indians and donut shops and the biggy that Barack Obama was the first mainstream African American  (VIDEO)who is articulate and bright and clean and a nice-looking guy. However, Biden’s racially charged comment, they’re  “going to put y’all back in chains,” meant to instill fear into blacks and a not so vale inference to slavery was reprehensible and over the line even for the libs at the Boston Globe.

What an embarrassment

When Vice President Joe Biden warned a Virginia rally of hundreds of African Americans that Republican efforts to loosen bank regulations meant “They’re going to put y’all back in chains,” Stephanie Cutter, Team Obama’s deputy campaign manager, said the president would have “no problem with those comments.”

But imagine if Republican Paul Ryan uttered comments like that. Mitt Romney’s pick for vice president would be pilloried for racial insensitivity — and so would Romney. In the fight for civility and substance over pointless hyperbole, Biden may not be the worst offender. But he’s an offender nonetheless, and he should apologize.

Barack Obama, Team Obama and his talking point minions defended Biden’s inexcusable comments as if it was just another incident of Joe being Joe and a Republican distraction. However, this matter is not going away even though Obama has put Biden in the witness protection program, out of site so that he cannot open his trap any more.  As opined at the White House Dossier regarding the call by the liberal MSM, “this belies the Obama campaign line that it’s all a “distraction.” What Biden said was contemptible. It was one of his patented inane remarks leavened with extraordinary malice.”
