Care to quote part of your link?

Maybe this part:

Fourteen hours after the attack, President Obama sat down with Steve Kroft of "60 Minutes" for a previously scheduled interview and said he did not believe it was simply due to mob violence.

"You're right that this is not a situation that was -- exactly the same as what happened in Egypt and my suspicion is that there are folks involved in this who were looking to target Americans from the start," Mr. Obama said.

This is the least effective use of the -gate suffix I've ever seen. Aside from Nipplegate, that was a pretty sad -gate also. And also entirely misleading. There was no nipple to be seen. Where's the nipple man? If you're going to use -gate as a suffix show me the nipple. That's goes for all the gates, Robert Gates, Bill Gates, Watergate, Nipplegate, Oblivion Gates and Gategate.
 
Mind sharing why you think that the fact that you can post links without quotes means that the President should be impeached.
 
I'm not going to tar and feather the administration for not taking a facebook proclamation as something to base anything on.
 
Terrorist groups are so hip these days. Using facebook and twitter. What a brave new world we live in. I wonder if they have a social media intern managing their account.
 
Seriously though, Obamagate? You're just attaching his name to it. What if Obama has a real (or for your sake, we'll say another) "-gate" At least call it Libyagate, or Benghazigate, or Consulategate.

God forbid we stop using -gate as a suffix to attach to our political scandals.
 
An early intelligence flub... Unfortunate, but not a malicious attempt to undermine the American democratic process.

honestly I think it was politically better for it to be terrorism than rioters anyway. I don't see why this is a scandal.
 
I'm responsible for the Detroit Tigers being in the World Series. I wrote it on the internet, therefore it must be true & no one should question it once they read this sentence.

Well, if it was an accident that does somewhat reduce the culpability although it does not remove it entirely.

That's not the vibe I get from the articles I linked, however. It seems like he knew and chose not to do anything about it.
 
I'm not seeing the issue?
