Lets see... GAY friend of Obama, with absolutely no qualifications, is suddenly sent as “ambassador” overseas to a country what hates gay people...

Very wise. Maybe he was TOO close of a ‘friend’ to Obama and was about to spill his guts...

I think he was a State Department careerist.
So technically qualified, naive fantasy prone liberal since a Peace Corps alumni but technically qualified

And none of this precludes him being a friend of Zero.

The Ambassador served as the deputy chief of mission in Libya from 2007 to 2009.

He was the American representative to the Transitional National Council in Benghazi during the revolution in Libya.

Benghazi was the capital of rebel-held Libya during the uprising to oust Qaddafi. This is the same that was attacked June 6th, too.

June 6 2012
“The group was reportedly trying to gain information about its missing leader. The attack ended when the Transitional National Council (TNC) authorised the interior and defense ministries - who oversee a broad constellation of brigades made up of former rebels - to “use all means necessary, including force,” to retake the airport.”

He had served two tours in Libya prior to becoming Ambassador in Jan.

If no FBI is over in Libya and it is too dangerous—who told our gov’t what papers were missing from the consulate? Why wasn’t Stevens at the safe house with the others? Why is it that only Stevens was drug around by the mob?

I suspect Stevens was a Spook.

Actually, he was previously stationed in Libya during the Bush administration. He spoke Arabic and spent most of his career in the Middle East and North Africa.
