This is not a major issue. It appears to be a bunch of Republicans grasping at straws.

The only real problem was that the US did not have adequate intelligence about what one group in Libya planned.

I do not think that the public believes that everyone can get it all right all of the time. Compared to the incredible number of snafus made by the Juniorbushies, this is nothing.

Personally i don't think Obama was calling the shots in the situation room. He might have been there but he wasn't calling the shots. And who ever was made the wrong call. But you know, contrary to what Hillary says, the buck stops in the Oval Office.

Are you saying ObamaCo is to blame?....but the buck stops at ObamaCo or somewhere else?

That's hilarious.

No.

If I was wanting to say that, i would have said that.

Any idea what all the CIA guys were doing in Benghazi? I have read upwards to 30 were there.

Probably selling arms or fostering arms sales to al-Qaeda or others in Syria.
This was a "hit" on the ambassador by some entity.

This is no one's Waterloo. No one thinks it is a serious issues except the usual Obamahaters, and he never had their votes. It is clear that it was just a lack of Intel, so neither Clinton nor Obama was to blame, unless you can prove that he told the CIA not to be on the alert, which of course is very unlikely.

The murder of a US Ambassador is always serious.

Why was there no attempt to rescue US personnel?

Why was there no attempt to rescue US personnel?

--------------------------------------------------------------------
Why was the NYC Fire Department not waiting around the twin towers with nets to catch the jumpers? Why didn't the FBI arrest the hijackers?

(1) They did not know that an attack was planned. No everyone can know everything, everywhere, all the time.

(2) The US did not have an army waiting in Benghazi. There was not enough time to prevent the attack.

This is only a case of Blameobama for the clowns that would never vote for him anyway.

Look ate the grotesque mess that Rummy, Cheney and Juniorbush made after the fall of Baghdad. They KNEW that there were a lot of hostiles around and that they had lots of arms. Thousands of people died in Iraq because of those three fools.
And each and every ratbag Republican in this forum was all for reelecting their sorry asses.

The siege on Benghazi lasted almost 7 hours. The WH was watching it real time. Why wasn't help sent.

Because there was no help available to send. The US does not have garrisons in Benghazi, and they probably did not know what was happening for the first part of the attack.
Again, not a major issue except for the Obamahaters.

It is more confusing than it is interesting.

I understand.

It's either a stonewalling news black out or trickles of speculation later followed by evidence.

It is simply a speculative "news" story backed by no facts. It is more informative and exciting to read the label on a ketchup bottle.
