" A bump in the road" ... remember that calloused statement?
I don't know the author of this poem. Very thought provoking and poignant.
I do recall, however, the President referring to the Benghazi incident as
"a bump in the road."
Today I heard an ex-Navy Seal being interviewed on Fox News
regarding a book he has written about how to handle crisis
situations in our lives. At the end of the interview he asked if he
could make a comment on Benghazi and of course the anchor
said yes.
He then thanked Fox News for keeping the Benghazi story in
the news, since other news organizations are not. He said the
Seals who died deserve the public knowing the truth about the
whole affair.
The poem was written by a MARINE CORPS Officer.
THE BATTLING BOYS OF BENGHAZI
We're the battling boys of Benghazi
No fame, no glory, no paparazzi.
Just a fiery death in a blazing hell
Defending our country we loved so well.
It wasn't our job, but we answered the call,
fought to the Consulate and scaled the wall.
We pulled twenty Countrymen from the jaws of fate
Led them to safety, and stood at the gate.
Just the two of us, and foes by the score,
But we stood fast to bar the door.
Three calls for reinforcement, but all were denied,
So we fought, and we fought, and we fought 'til we died.
We gave our all for our Uncle Sam,
But Barack Obama didn't give a damn.
Just two dead seals who carried the load
No thanks to us.........
We were just "Bumps In The Road."
So, then, will this reach every American with a computer?
Or do we act like the press and give a pass to the incompetent
people who literally sat there in the White House and watched
the Seal's execution on live streaming video and did absolutely
nothing?
The Obama Administration obviously won't be held accountable
because we apparently accept Hillary Clinton's statement, "...what
difference does it make?"
