Don't know the author of this poem � rec'd it today. Very thought provoking and poignant.
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 a country we love so well.
It wasn't our job, but we answered the call
fought to consulate and scaled the wall
We pulled 20 countrymen from the
jaws of fate
lead 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 until
we both died.
We gave our all for Uncle Sam
But, Barack Obama didn't give a damn
Just, two dead Navy Seal's who
carried the load
No Thanks to us, we were just
"a bump in the road".

I do recall, however, Obama 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........
