The actual report from the Senate Intel. Committee is linked within the WaPo article.

- The attacks were preventable.
- Surveillance video from the annex shows there was not any kind of demonstration or protest before the attack.

Nice job Mr. President. You too Mrs Clinton.

We already know that they should have put in more security. I believe that Clinton has already apologized for that long ago.
Nothing about the surveillance video contradicts the NYT story.

I want our 4,000 dead soldiers back. When will we get an apology for invading the wrong country?

Ugh, I guess the thread is going to get off topic, but PP brought up Iraq.

CIA Director George Tenet has already admitted (in his book) he gave what turned out to be an incorrect intelligence assessment to President Bush prior to the invasion of Iraq.

Mrs. Clinton apologized? Maybe she did, but I was not aware that she had done so. I freely admit a bias against her, but I recall that she said she never saw the memos about security (which I have no problem with, as it might not be the kind of think a Sec State reads). That seems different that apologizing.

Where does the buck stop on this, I am wondering? The senate says this was preventable. Is Mrs Clinton responsible? Is the president responsible? Who gets the actual blame and is there any consequence for that blame?

So only the people who PAID HIM by buying his book were privy to that apology?

One of the more interesting things, to me, in the report was that the DoD was not aware of the CIA annex? Explanation?

Go get the book at a public library and you won't have to pay him.

Really? That is what you get out of this. The guy wrote a book which makes the conversation with President Bush (and his thoughts about that conversation subsequently) for practical purposes public record. Do you want him to come to your house and tell you personally that he jacked up the WMD intel and tell you he is sorry about that? Does that satisfy your need for an apology? Should he then publish a letter in your local paper telling everyone that he apologized to you?

And you know she did not apologize after how?

How do you know she did not apologize later?

Well of course because whenever she did it, the right wing media said she was trying to protect Obama. So it probably never sank in. Nevertheless, she did.

When did she apologize?

What did she apologize for doing, or failing to do?

Is it proper to conclude she is responsible for the preventable deaths of the four diplomats?

If it is proper to make that conclusion, is it also proper to conclude that being responsible for that is worse than causing a traffic jam?

OMG it is not exactly a state secret. Use your google powers.

Here, I'll throw you a bone and give you a FOX APPROVED statement on Hillary taking responsibility for the security failures that led to Benghazi:

http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2012/10/15/clinton-takes-responsibility-for-consulate-security-blames-confusion-on-fog-war/

And you can see how they completely ignore that and move on to the attack on Obama and the supposed "coverup" about the cause of the attack.

Do you now see how your favorite media is manipulating you?

Yep it's the republicans in congress cutting security funding and the ones in government working against the country's interests. Hopefully we will be able to purge the republicans from government. It is need in a bad way. Just look at the DOD and NSA, shameful. These "people" will do anything they can to harm the US.

It has already been established that the lack of security in Benghazi was not due to lack of funding. The decision was made to stick with the locals. DOD twice offered protection. It is interesting that DOD did not know about the annex.

Conservatives military leaders refused to send teams in b/c they knew they could use the deaths against Clinton.
