The latest incriminating information on the U.S. consulate attack in Benghazi, Libya indicates that the State Department turned down a request for additional security from concerned U.S. embassy staff.
New evidence shows there were security threats in Libya in the months prior to the deadly September 11 attack that killed U.S. Ambassador Christopher Stevens and three other Americans. Despite these threats, the State Department left its personnel there to fend for themselves.
And when the terrorist attack did take place, the Obama Administration peddled the ridiculous story that an offensive, amateurish, anti-Islam YouTube video was to blame in order to avoid characterizing the murders of four Americans as terrorism.
On October 2, a letter was sent to Secretary of State Hillary Clinton from House Oversight and Government Reform Committee Chairman Darrell Issa (R–CA) and Jason Chaffetz (R–UT), Chairman of the National Security, Homeland Defense and Foreign Operations Subcommittee.

These last two weeks are the first times the administration has been challenged. Maybe the night of the debate, Obama knew lots of this stuff was going to come out. He is now caught in a cover-up. People died and why are they lying?
I don't know that this prez will pay for his crimes (in this life,) of which there are many, but he will pay dearly - and even for his lies too.
Where was our president, hour by hour, during the attacks, when he learned of the attacks, and when it was time to respond?
He was sitting in the sauna, drinking $10,000 bottles of wine during the attacks, and it took 48 hours to dry him out.
I think we should add the Cairo protests to the timeline...as the administration used them as an excuse for everything that followed. Which is hilarious, since they too were planned ahead of time and announced on August 30th, before there was any knowledge of the video.
Gateway pundit has a nice summary of how they occurred.

They direct readers to the following article from USA Today, who has very useful info on the pre-planning for the Egyptian protests. The USA article is written as if the Libyan consulate also experienced protests, what is important is that the administration should have expected the 09/11 protests at embassies throughout the middle east, as none of this was spur of the moment.

On the evening of 9/11/12 President Jarrett must have urged Barry to get to sleep early so he wouldn’t miss the 8 AM tee time. Meanwhile she burned the midnight oil concocting a ‘plausible deniability’ scenario.
