Is BO golfing or fundraising today?
It looks to me like it is parked by sniveling American weakness and an impotent president.
That is AMERICAN territory! SHOOT THEM DEAD!!!
WTF part of AMERICAN TERRITORY do we not understand here???
I wouldn't trust the State Department to handle the security for a one car funeral much less for middle east embassies.
Now that the ‘it’s about a film’ canard is being debunked, it’s more accurate to say:
“In the latest round of violence sparked by other Muslim protesters, Muslim protestors attacked ...” &c.
I am worried that this is the beginning of a planned Muslim War on the west, while Obambi is still in office
Thanks Obama/Carter. Real good job your doing there in the middle east with your friends. Oh, and good idea not to let the death of our ambassador and other Americans interrupt your fundraising schedule. Also, be sure and tell Hillary what a good job she did too, I mean, with the disarming the marines and all. Really good job you two.

Earlier today, Yemeni police opened fire to stop protesters from reaching the U.S. Embassy in Saana, witnesses said (see 7:31 a.m. entry).
The protection team is similar to the team of 50 Marines that was sent earlier this this week to Tripoli, Libya, in the wake of the attack in Benghazi.
