Time to help ambassador stevens but it was indyk tougher of a mentality of not wanting to send any sort of military presence into libya. why wasnt the fast team sent to benghazi where they could have secured the consulate and the cia annex so that the f.b.i. could get in? it took the f.b.i. 24 days to get in because the areas were not secure and at that point all of the evidence was not very useful. there are so many questions about why did the team from benghazi, the team that included several ...

Were reassigned and suggesting they werent punished that severely. >> i thought the other thing in the presidents statement that was absolutely stunning was that attention to security at the benghazi facility was sloppy. right, four dead americans. this is a tragedy. >> reporter: you can tell from the presidents remarks he obviously wants to move on. you hear from mr. boltens remarks, there are a lot of republicans who still have unanswered questions about this. i think the next big thing here i...

The report and what it means for hillary clinton, perhaps, the secretary of state who heads that. andrea mitchell and david ignatius handles all these matters. hes also associate editor of "the washington post." i called you on this today because it baffled me. two apparently contradictory reports in the report. one said there were repeated requests to get security forces brought to that benghazi facility. then later on it said the people did not demonstrate strong and sustained advocacy for sup...
