ORIGINAL: ElizabethAnne You seriously are justifying O'bama in this??? An Ambassador and three other in the embassy murdered, repeated requests denied; And it's ok because not every request for additional support goes across his desk. That is your stance?? Really? No, can you not read? The claim was that Biden and Obama lied when they said they had no knowledge of a request from anyone for more security. Which is likely true as such a request is far below the President's paygrde. Except that the reason they were denied - as was testified by the head of the libyan security detachment was because it didn't fit with the political message the administration wanted to send. Which is EXACTLY Obama's paygrade. No. It is the exactly what you would expect from some minor functionary in the State Department. It is absolutely absurd to think this sort of thing ever even left the State Department much less got all the way to Obama's desk. Consider hw many people would have had to kick this up the chain to get to the President, The actual professional in the SD responsible for security arrangements, The Assistant Undersecretary he reports to. The Undersecretary the AU reports to. The Secretary of State, Senior Staff at the White House, The Chief of Staff at the White House and finally the President. So you're postulating 7 or 8 people kicked a minor decision up the chain. Which is beyond absurd.
