There's somethig else that surfaced today...shortly aftre th eattack, the US head of counter-terrorism (I htink his name is Olsen) said it was clearly a terrorist attack. It is being reported that the White House told him to back off saying that.
Conclusion: Realizing this was a planned terrorist attack, Obama believed that his critics would conclude the deaths were his fault, since his administration rejected Ambassador Stevens' requests for extra security. So Obama desperately tried to portray this is something other than what it was, so that it wouldn't appear to be his fault.
Let's also remember that the day after the attack, knowing that 4 Americans had just been killed by terrorists, Obama flew to Vegas for a campaign event. Priorities.
