Because it is appearing more and more that the attack was NOT a surprise but had been planned and warned about days in advance.
If the White House, or anyone in the administration, didn't give permission for appropriate security when the people on the ground were requesting additional security, then that is a criminal act, in my opinion.

These aren't some hidden clues in a murder case.
The "facts" could be spilled IMMEDIATELY.
The President can release the "facts" now...
FTR, both idiotic "sides" do this 'hide the truth from the American people' bull shite when they are in charge.
This is not an Obama thing (though THIS one is). It is a fricked up, secretive, never own their mistakes Fed Gov thing and I am SICK of it

It appears to be a Clinton thing.
I'm put in mind of Mogadishu, 1994, when on the watch of another Clinton, armored support was refused the troops in Somalia. As a result, we ended up with the Black Hawk Down scenario.

Is it true that Republicans in house cut back on security provided by state dept. someone told me this and I hadn't heard of this prior. Phone almost dead.

I still haven't seen any evidence of this, but as I said, I've not been following this very closely. Mostly just from here.

asking for additional security
Somehow I get the feeling there's a standing request for more security from just about every diplomatic outpost, if you know what I'm saying.
There are always decisions to be made. The question is whether the facts available to whoever had to decide how much security was present made it reasonable to do something that was not done in this case.
What is bothering me so far is the "clue" I see in the administration saying today that this attack was "unprecedented." No fricking shite it was unprecedented. If that is the best fact they have at this point, then that means what's under the surface does not look good.

The administration simply has no excuse for hiding anything from the families.
"Still under investigation" is no excuse. Even if that's the case, then you say, "Here's what we know so far...". You don't say nothing as days turn to weeks, and now it's a full month later. And nothing, but a constantly changing story on the news?
That's not the way our government is supposed to work. Period.
