Hillary dodges a bullet

"We had four dead Americans. Was it because of a protest, or was it because of guys out for a walk one night who decided they'd go kill some Americans.  What difference at this point, does it make?"

Well Hillary, if they are Al Quada terrorists you shoot them as they climb over the embassy wall.  If they are just teen age protesters you use tear gas on 'em.  I know that.  Do you know that?

And if Washington doesn't know who they are at this point,  it's a good bet they didn't know the night it happened.  Which might account for Washington abandoning our diplomats to an Al Quada mob who killed them. 

Questions not asked that should have been.
1. Where was air support for the consolate?  We could have had fighters overhead within an hour.  We could have had helicopters there inside of two or three.  Where were they?
2.  Where were the Marine guards?  Benghazi was so dangerous the British Consolate closed up and left town.  And we stayed put, leading with our chin, without a guard force.  A dozen US Marines probably could have held the place against any number of raghead terrorists.
3. Why were two US general officers relieved of duty right afterwards?
