So, just a heads up - the House Republicans are saying that WE are to blame for the failure at Benghazi for not responding quick enough to the clear orders of the President.

This final report will determine Gowdy's political future in the Republicans Party. Blaming the military would ruin him. I think I will wait for the actual report and context, rather than headlines.

interesting to see the transition from Republican hero to what is being thrown around now. I have a feeling he is too smart ot touch the one community that is always political suicide and such a great stepping stone for positive press. could be bad for him but good for us in the long haul if we can start actually pointing out fault and waste in the military without being labeled "anti American" but like you said... I will have to withhold until the teport is public

Headline writers don't report news. They tease readers using words to pique the reader's interest or incite the reader's passion. I see nothing in the story itself faulting the military, but rather those who might have used military assets to protect and defend the Americans trapped in Benghazi. And no, it doesn't appear that the committee uncovered any direct evidence of malfeasance on the part of anyone in the Administration including the President or Hillary, but it well-supports charges of misfeasance and nonfeasance as well as attempts to distract attention from those failings. All-in-all, a fair finding.

So the CiC (Obama) delayed/wanted to come up with "talking" points. One of his Depth heads (Clinton-State Dept) hopped on board with it. The "sacrificial lamb" (Susan Rice) throws,those talking points to media (It was caused by a video). The military was waiting on the "Go" to send rescue forces from the CiC(which never happend). So yeah major breakdown in the CoC all the way around and 4 American lives lost.
Yeah it's the Republicans fault(extreme sarcasm)

Ok they call in the military experts. They are in charge to make the decision after gathering recommendations. It's called Leadership (or in this case lack of)

SPC Randy Semanko Here's the problem. No matter how many first hand accounts from the people on the ground it won't matter to some. They will have excuses for what happend.
IMO. A major failure on the CiC period, and American lives were lost. It is a text example of leadership FAIL across the board, and no one will accept responsibility. So yeah let's spin it and blame someone else....

SP5 Christine Conley Tap dance all you want. Im sticking with my initial assessment in my post. It is a MAJOR fail on the CIC to support Americns in a hostile envirmoent. So who was in charge? Set of State and CIC. End of story.
