While the exact nature of the attack was not clear from the start, "what we did know early on was that this was a hostile action," retired Air Force brigadier general Robert Lovell said in his prepared statement Thursday morning to members of the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform. "This was no demonstration gone terribly awry."

There were questions about whether the U.S. military could have responded to Benghazi in time, but "we should have tried," Lovell said.




All these people that think it's a non issue get their news from MSNBC who does nothing to report anything of bad light on the present administration. So they believe like sheep that it's a non issue. Lying to the American people during election time, it's bad in almost everyone's book. Sorry they can't see that.
What fairy land do you live in, that you think the military can just waltz into a sovereign country unannounced with out it being a act of war? It doesn't matter if an embassy is under attack, we can't just send troops in. Shit Republicans had a conniption fit that we went Into Pakistan and killed Bin Laden and that was a successful mission.

Just think of the Republican outrage that would have gone on had Obama sent troops to Benghazi and a chopper was shot down adding even more dead. Let's not even mention that even the military has said they wouldn't of had time to react anyway, but facts need not get in the way of a Republican tax payer funded inquisition. Neither should common sense.
