Nordstrom requested the site security team (Wood's team which was in Tripoli not Benghazi) be extended not Stevens. If Stevens thought it so important why did he not escalate to Sec Clinton? He didn't. And his running buddy Wood says he kept warning Stevens about the dangers of Benghazi so why did Stevens go there with minimum security team on 9/11 anniversary of all days?

And there was a CIA team on site in Benghazi. What were they doing? Didn't they know about terror threat to Benghazi and warn Stevens or escalate to CIA HQ? Didn't Patreaus alert President Obama or Sec Clinton? When is Issa going to call Patreaus to testify?

No doubt this is an American tragedy and the death of a very brave, skillful and courageous American, Ambassador Stevens, is major loss to our diplomatic efforts in Libya. What we need now is to continue this clownish, political, witch hunt to an extreme. Maybe we will find out who in the repug party led them to reduce the State Dept Security budget. Could it be Issa, Burton, Chaffetz...?
