Bad enough he missed the security briefings, but much worse is his absence that evening after the attack.

Al Qaeda leader Zawahiri confirms death of Abu Yahya al-Libi, September 10, 2012|Reuters

CAIRO, Sept 11 (Reuters) - Al Qaeda's leader Ayman al-Zawahiri confirmed in a video recording the death of Abu Yahya al-Libi, a veteran militant said to have been a leader of the group's operations, and who had survived previous U.S. attacks.
The U.S. government said in June that a drone strike in Pakistan had killed Libi, dealing the biggest in a series of blows to the militant group since the raid that killed Osama bin Laden last year.
"I proudly announce to the Muslim umma and to the mujdahideen (holy fighters)  the news of the martyrdom of Libya's lion Sheikh Hassan Mohammed Qaed," Zawahiri said in the video.

More importantly, in the piece on Reuters site (12/9/2012) this is stated:

"This liar is trying to fool Americans into believing that he will defeat al Qaeda by killing this person or than person," he said, referring to U.S. President Barack Obama. "But he escapes from the fact that he was defeated in Iraq and Afghanistan."
The United States withdrew most forces from Iraq last year after it led an invasion in 2003 to depose ruler Saddam Hussein, and it is planning a withdrawal from Afghanistan, invaded in 2001 to bring down the Islamist Taliban government.
Zawahiri urged Muslims and particularly Libyans to take revenge for the killing of Libi.

"His blood urges you and incites you to fight and kill the crusaders," he said.

----------
Now then, which video do You think is most likely to have a bearing on the events in Benghazi - the unknown Muhammed video or a call to action against the infidels by al-Zawahiri?

Where the H--L was Romney and his campaign on this???

Where was he and what was he doing that was so urgent that he evidently couldn’t be bothered?

As homosexualized as his excuse would likely be, we still have the right to know why this so-called President left these people to be murdered.

WHERE WAS THIS MISCREANT?
