I guess Chaffetz is lying:

AFRICOM Leader General Carter Ham Was Never Ordered to Save US Men in Benghazi

Per Rep. Jason Chaffetz R-UT asking General Ham directly:

(close paraphrase)

Did we have assets in the area? The answer is “yes”.
Did we have proximity? The answer is “yes”.
Why we didn’t send in some of those assets? The general said he was not requested to do so.

Great stuff Jason Chaffetz is an up and coming rock star. In the tape he says that Gen.Ham told him "we had assets in the area and we had proximity." He says he was never asked to help.Once again this only makes sense if you hired the terror types who are doing the attack.

What was not said was that the Gen.tried to help anyway,since Ham's obviously a patriot and believes in never leaving anyone behind.What happened next is a bit bizarre. Ham was was relieved of command 30 seconds later by a junior officer. Who says our military is not loaded with bad guys,it definitely is.
