Despite his facilitating the housing problem, which turned into a meltdown under Obama, and acting as Dem-lite on domestic spending, he was right, on a lot of things

Plane: "Having two SEAL trained men with the ambassador would normally be a lot of security."

When you're talking about a former SEAL who is on an Ambassador's security team, that's in a hot spot, you're talking about people who have a lot more going than just being SEAL trained. These are guys who have tons of experience. Team 6 is called "the old mans club" because you can't be a young man and have enough experience to do what they do.

I doubt very seriously that Plane was arguing in the quality of the 2 guys assigned to help protect an Ambassador.    ::)    I think the point was that even the 2 greatest trained and experienced SEALS can be overwhelmed by sheer #'s

  Yes , exactly so , that they were not sufficeient for success makes me suspect that they were attacked by a strong force that had a strong plan and perhaps inside information.
  Perhaps the mob was impromptu as far as most of the mob knew, but if in with them were a dirty dozen hardened Al Quieda I wouldn't be surprised .

The fact is that no embassy or consulate of any country can withstand a large enough mob. The US Embassy, the Russian Embassy, and the French Embassy in Quito are very well protected, with razor wire and God knows what else. Ecuador is not a particularly violent country, either. But if the locals have a large enough mob for a long enough time, only the local government can protect it.

You assume that a Marine detail would be capable of withstanding a missile attack.

It is a fallacious assumption.

I don't believe C or Plane claimed any such thing.  Pulling out another non-existent claim to refute??  SOP, I suppose

As I recall, he not only got advance warning, at least 48hrs in advance, not only didn't warn anyone or even beef up security ANYWHERE, he spend a mere 1 hour talking about it afterwards, before heading off for big bucks in Vegas.  Too bad what goes to Vegas, doesn't stay in Vegas

Again, just imagine if this were Bush, or President McCain, or any other Republican.....the MSM would be going apoplectic, at current events

Yeah, sirs, life is unfair. I bet they will be waterboarding the Koch brothers soon.

US Marines do pretty well against RPG attacks , particularly when they are shooting back.

Is shooting back out of the question?

Did I hear a report where we weren't allowed to even carry ammo/live rounds, and thus seriously be able to fight back?  Last report I heard also included upwards of 100's that stormed the Benghazi compound
