""At every level in the chain of command, from the senior officers in Libya to the most senior officials in Washington, everyone was fully engaged in trying to provide whatever help they could," a senior intelligence official said in a statement. "There were no orders to anybody to stand down in providing support."

Really? Fully engaged (parsing for the WH situation room)? I thought the WH didn't know what what was going on in real time? What assistance was provided? Am I missing something here? Of course not. CYA for this "intelligence official".

So, according to this report, he is implying that military resources were activated, as we all know they weren't. This guy needs to hang with the rest of those responsible for not attempting a rescue of our Ambassador.

In the situation room, when the initial phone call came 9:40pm at the Consulate, Obama gave an order to “secure those Americans”, how long do you watch video from the drones before you figure out the orders aren’t being followed?

Obama says when the initial phone call came, he gave an order to “secure those Americans”;

Obama “Now with respect to Libya, as I indicated in the last debate, when we received that phone call, I immediately made sure that, number one, that we did everything we could to secure those Americans who were still in harm’s way;”
