Fox got one thing wrong. By 11 p.m. EDT the consulate had been evacuated and all personnel except the missing Amb. Stevens had been relocated to the annex in Benghazi.

The e-mail shows the Obama admin knew the staff was under a sophisticated attack and taking casualties. As we know now, Obama did nothing to help them.

This is truly amazing. It also shows that not only did Obama know, but Hillary would have known at that time too. Unless she’s so out of the loop nobody tells her nuttin’...

I bet it’s somebody in the military who is leaking this. They were all gassed up and ready to go, but they needed an order from somebody at the top to move, and that order never came. Obama was either in bed by then or packing for his campaign trip.

Didn’t Obama go to bed knowing that his inaction would result in their deaths?

People who pass out or are up on something often leave things undone....just saying.

It does indeed.

As I understand it the last deaths occurred around 10pm ET. This all went down in the afternoon and evening our time.

The mortar attack required pre-attack planning for proper trajectory and logistical considerations. This is the smoking gun...pre-planning was denied by the White House...”there was no evidence of this being a pre-planned attack” paraphrasing the White House position for days following the massacre. The other question is how did the enemy know ahead of time where the “safe house” was located? Could it be leaks from the local security forces the administration hired?

If Fox is reporting it then it can’t be true.

ABC CBS NBC MSNBC CNN BET NYT LAT still claim it was DEFINITELY the video.

Barry The Bold needed his beauty rest so he would be at his best for that important fund raiser the next day. He’s eye candy, you know.

Besides, four Americans don’t make any difference when your policies have already killed hundreds of Mexicans.

In bed. He doesn't do his own packing. Kind of like on D-Day when the Germans wanted to send a reserve panzer division to Normandy but Keitel or somebody didn't want to wake up Der Fuhrer to ask permission.

Ya’ll are probably all correct. He was probably drunk and “packing” in bed and passed out shortly afterward.

Help could have been minutes away. That fact could come out in main stream news (we would think) and really make OB look bad.

I heard that help could have been sent. Aircraft both manned and unmanned.
