I think Biden just lost the election for his boss.
I notice this lie too when Biden said it. Biden won’t look good in this department.
Plugs lied about not voting for Iraq and Afghanistan too. He voted for both wars. What a slime ball.
Ponder this: Biden gets his reports from the CIA, not the State Dept. Hence, Biden was correct: the WH received no requests for an increase in CIA security staff.
The State Dept. did receive security requests for an increase in Marines, and those requests were denied.
If the above two speculations are correct, then there is a disconnect between the WH and State.
Soon Obama and Hilly will try to shift the blame for this disconnect on the other. Well, Hilly COULD stall it out until after Obama is re-elected - - - - . A deal is a deal!
When is the next Issa/Congressional hearing on the Libyan cover-up, er, attacks?
Biden voted the same.

“Mr. Vice President, regarding the terrorist attack that left four Americans dead in Libya. I’m sure you’ve seen all the pictures and heard the reports about the sadistic things that were done by the terrorists.
We’ve already established that your Administration, despite warnings and pleas for help, significantly reduced security around the Libyan consulate.
And here you are in front of the whole nation, claiming that your administration didn’t know they wanted more security? Even though two state department officials just testified under oath to the contrary?
And you’re laughing about it? Really?
And we’ve also established that your Administration went to great lengths to cover up your incompetence, spreading a made-up story about a non-existent video.
So please tell the American people, Mr. Vice President, what can the people take away from this episode that will make them feel good about electing you to a second term?”
