While giving a speech on Friday at the University of Illinois, Barack Obama labeled Benghazi a “wild conspiracy theory.”
Of course, you remember Benghazi as the day four Americans (including a United States ambassador) were murdered when a radical Islamic group stormed a CIA compound.
Their names were Chris Stevens, Ty Woods, Sean Smith, and Glen Doherty.
"It’s not conservative, it sure isn’t normal — it’s radical,” Obama says of the rise of far-right, while citing conspiracy theories that include his birth certificate, Benghazi and science and facts.

Obama criticizes Americans for embracing "wild conspiracy theories — like those surrounding Benghazi. Or my birth certificate."
Minutes later accuses GOP of "cozying up" to KGB & letting the "Russians hack" our election.
Take a bow, Spartacus

Kris ‘Tonto’ Paronto, a former Army Ranger and CIA contractor, was one of the men to escape the attack in Benghazi with his life.
Here’s his striking critique of ‘cowardly’ Obama’s words:
Benghazi is a conspiracy @BarackObama ?! How bout we do this,let’s put your cowardly ass on the top of a roof with 6 of your buddies&shoot rpg’s&Ak47’s at you while terrorists lob 81mm mortars killing 2 of your buddies all while waiting for US support that you never sent????????#scum

Twitter decided Paronto’s tweets were too inflammatory so they pulled the ultimate fascist move and silenced Paronto by suspending his account.
@Twitter I see you are still suppressing views from Conservatives. @KrisParonto pic.twitter.com/AAaV9OKH4O

I feel like I’m in good company now.
I was in the Twitter Penalty Box for 8 hours for speaking out against FGM. I suggested they do that to the men instead of little girls.
A grown man didn’t like what I said.
Twitter takes the side of big old men instead of little girls.

Because certain people disagreed with Paronto’s words, they felt he shouldn’t be allowed to say them. That is called fascism – when one side shuts down the other.
The First Amendment was put in place to protect speech others may not like. That’s the whole point.
