Any way you cut it the reports don't indicate an administration cover up.
You seriously don't think a well armed militia couldn't scrounge up a mortar in 6 hours? Jesus Jim, the entire reason the CIA annex was there in the first place was a mission to curb the PROLIFERATION OF WEAPONS.
The CIA annex wasn't attacked until 5am. It was only a mile away. The attackers clearly could have just followed them back there.
You still haven't read anything reported on this tragic event have you?

"Rice said it appeared to have started as a spontaneous protest and then extremists quickly moved in"
First, from what I recall (I could be wrong), the video outside the consulate showed no protest before the attack.
"Rice said it appeared to have started as a spontaneous protest and then extremists quickly moved in"
When did she say that? When did she say that the protest and the attack were distinct?
"Big difference with a lifetime appointment"
OK, spence. So how long of an appointment is satisfied with merely an impressive resume?
Secstate is a high profile position, and high up in line for succession to the Presidency. A swell-looking resume isn't enough. i'd also counter that her resume is no longer impressive. She made a horse's ass out of herself, and the Benghazi attack was most certainly not the first time her incompetence was shown.
Finally Spence, why do your liberal pals label criticism of Rice as "racist"? What's the evidence of that?
