President Obama silent while US Consulate in Libya burned

The protests that started at the U.S. Embassy in Cairo today took an even more ominous turn as news outlets reported the death of a U.S. official in an attack on the American consulate in Benghazi, Libya.
Just last week at their convention, the Democrats offered Sen. John Kerry as the party’s voice of foreign policy, criticizing Mitt Romney for drawing his knowledge of Russia from watching “Rocky IV.” Tonight, though, with word of the U.S. Consulate in Benghazi having been burned down, the Twitterverse wants to know if there’s an empty chair sitting next to that ringing telephone.
That 3am Phone Is Ringing!!!!! American Killed in Libya Consulate Attack. Obama is Silent.
9/11/12: American killed in Libya; US emb. in Cairo overrun; Putin weighs in. At home, Obama trying to label Romney a neophyte. #alleconomy?
Sooo...obama how bout that foreign policy of urs... Diplomat killed in Libya, Morsi meeting w/Iran, & egyptians tearing down US flag on 9/11
Kerry wasn’t the only figure from the Democrats’ past to emerge for the convention. Former President Jimmy Carter spoke via video, and today’s events have him back in the top of people’s minds.
So basically Obama went "Full Carter" today.
Wait, has anyone actually seen Carter and Obama in the same room?#justaskin
The parallels between Carter and Obama are so concrete it boggles the mind.#p2 #tcot #tlot #Obama2012
Embassy is sovereign soil of its country. Attacking embassy is an act of war. Obama acting like Clinton (Kenya & Tanzania) & Carter (Iran).
Carter '79 “@DosMasCervezas: . @AndrewCMcCarthy on #Levin: Can you imagine anyone prior to Obama's election daring to attack a US embassy?”
Pretty much impossible to not see the similarities between Jimmy Carter and Barack Obama when you see this pic.twitter.com/KMlKFxQw
