Benghazi Security: Grossly Inadequate

The report from the Accountability Review Board was released....

I would really like to know what specific intelligence was so strong that caused the Obama administration to run with the protest story long after it was no longer plausible.

Hillary's political career should be done. But I honestly doubt she will ever be held accountable.

They were begging for help... Didn't get it.

"at variance" is fancy term for it didn't meet our own requirements.

Hung them out to dry.

Blame the dead guy.

There was no defense.

No one will be held responsible.

That is the back drop to which we had no security. Incredible.

Hillary's response?

Wait... I thought she was suffering from a concussion? Does she have the mental capacity to accept "every one" of the recommendations? She is such a trooper.

 

I'm sure the media will be unrelenting in trying to bring Barack and Hilary to their knees.

 

That doesn't surprise me.

Here is the NYTimes' take on it and the Foxnews link is the actual report itself.

^^^This. Yet those effing libs will try to get her to run next time. She has shown she is a complete idiot and ineffectual. She should have her *** run out on rails. The Socialist should demand her resignation, yet he won't. And no one will be held accountable. At least the Brits fall on their swords from time to time... Our politicos have no decency.

 

So if the argument is being made that it was "systemic failures" that caused Benghazi and that Hillary should have fallen on her sword over it, I suppose Condi Rice should have been incarcerated for 09/11.

 

now post the classified one with the real story...

how much of a security detail would it have taken to protect them from the attack that was coming?

 

What a stupid statement. Hillary was asked to improve security, several times. Rice had nothing to do regarding the perps.

 

Shhh. No one tell him how ignorant he looks since Condi didn't become SoS until 2005.

 

Oh. OK. Condi WASN'T the NSA to W when 09/11 happened? Sorry. My bad. And she wasn't warned by Richard Clarke either.

 

Predictable. Unable to admit you were wrong, you try to spin it that for no reason at all, you just pulled Condi's name as the NSA out of a hat.

 

Three senior staff members just resigned.

 

What was I wrong about? Did I ever say Condi was the SOS during 09/11? Sorry if I didn't lay it out in caveman language for you. See the SOS isn't responsible for National Security. That falls to....the National Security Advisor.

 

news in KC just mentioned the report...nothing more nothing less...

 

You implied it by responding with a quote describing the Secretary of Vajayjay.

 

The Board found that Ambassador Stevens made the decision to travel to Benghazi independently of Washington, per standard practice. Timing for his trip was driven in part by commitments in Tripoli, as well as a staffing gap between principal officers in Benghazi. Plans for the Ambassador’s trip provided for minimal close protection security support and were not shared thoroughly with the Embassy’s country team, who were not fully aware of planned movements off compound. The Ambassador did not see a direct threat of an attack of this nature and scale on the U.S. Mission in the overall negative trendline of security incidents from spring to summer 2012. His status as the leading U.S. government advocate on Libya policy, and his expertise on Benghazi in particular, caused Washington to give unusual deference to his judgments.

 

Geez, getting butt-hurt at others when you're the one who made a total *** of yourself?

 

I suppose it's not my fault someone is so politically oblivious to not know what it was I was initially referring to. Condi Rice and the Clarke memo is a pretty well known part of the history of 09/11.

 

Keep digging, bro.

 

Please lay it out for the cavemen... National Security Advisor

Advisor - one who gives advice.

You see in caveman world, the NSA doesn't have control of anything. That would be the President.. SecDef... SoS.

Nice try though.
