Throughout the night, sources say Americans on the ground in Libya at times felt helpless and abandoned.
"We relied on Washington for dispassionate assessment," one eyewitness told CBS News. "Instead, they [Washington officials] were asking us what help we needed. We answered: 'Send reinforcements!' "
But they were told immediate help wasn't available.
Embassy personnel say they repeatedly asked the Defense Attache on site in Tripoli for military assistance.
"Isn't there anything available?" one Embassy official says he asked. "But the answer was 'no.'"
"What about Aviano?" the official pressed, referencing the NATO air base with US assets in northeastern Italy. "No," was the answer.
Two of the four Americans killed that night died hours after the first attack began.

Counterterrorism sources and internal emails reviewed by CBS News express frustration that key responders were ready to deploy, but were not called upon to help in the attack.

A RINO’s RINO?
Yawn?
No, that comes after the threesome of the day for 0bama. More when he’s in flight/abroad. If anyone gets wind of something untoward, we get stories of his prowess, athletic ability, or family-man leanings. Then, a secret service or other person shows up dead.
The U.S. “can’t” respond within seven hours... When democrats are calling the shots, America is capable of much.
Imho, your post is over the target and making direct hits. Think also, did money flow for the commercial about the film being the cause.
Obama went to friggin bed, he was informed of the attack and he talked to his security advisor for a couple of minutes and then told everyone he was off to sleep, that as Americans were pleading for help and dying.
If that is not an act of impeachment then I odn;t know what the hell is
Is=isn’t
You were more right than wrong on Petraeus, MM. It turns my already cold blood to Celsius zero.
The list, Ping
Let me know if you would like to be on or off the ping list
Well things are starting to look good for the hearing on Wed. Especially if this is the type of testimony that will be given.
“You should have seen what (Clinton) tried to do to us that night,”
But Obama ordered them to do everything to help,
So he lied? who would have thunk it
the fact the CIC went to bed and to sleep and then off to Vegas for an event for his election was down right F-IN wrong and yet Candy Crowley and the rest fo the corrupt media all ran with their talking points of a you tube video , the families were lied to and we still do not know the truth
he went to friggin bed knowing the attack was taking place and people were dying.
That is one cold disgusting man , now imagine if Bush had done this?
How would the hypocritical left and media which are the same have acted and would still act today
Cruise through just some of the headlines not covered by US news here at “Libya SOS”

It is amazing the hypocritical left and how much they politicized the war on terror
they moaned about gitmo until their boy was in, they moan about wars and nothing about bombing Libya, they say bozo cares and yet he goes to bed as the attacks were taking place which for me is the most disgusting thing this man has done.
They blame America over gun crime in Mexico and yet it was fast and furious.
They moaned about gas prices but now their boy is in there is nothing.
He even stood outside gas stations and moaned about it, he called Bush unpatriotic over debt and spending and now racks up more debt and not a peep from this corrupt hypocritical media and the left
HUH??
clarification ... lame stream drive by media is full of CIA operatives.
HMMMM...It is so hard to discern what is deliberate self-interest and what is sheer incomptence in this administration, and what is evil.
Too bad J Edgar Hoover isn’t around...Obozo would be gone by now.
