According to the White House calendar, there is no public record of President Barack Obama attending his daily intelligence briefing--known as the Presidential Daily Brief (PDB)--in the week leading up to the attacks on the U.S. embassy in Cairo and the murder of U.S. Libyan Ambassador Chris Stevens and three American members of his staff: 9/6/2012- http://www.whitehouse.gov/schedule/president/2012-09-06

9/7/2012- http://www.whitehouse.gov/schedule/president/2012-09-07

9/8/2012- http://www.whitehouse.gov/schedule/president/2012-09-08

9/9/2012- http://www.whitehouse.gov/schedule/president/2012-09-09

9/10/2012- http://www.whitehouse.gov/schedule/president/2012-09-10

9/11/2012- http://www.whitehouse.gov/schedule/president/2012-09-11

The last time prior to the slayings that the White House calendar publicly confirms Mr. Obama attending his daily intelligence briefing was September 5th. (The White House did not provide an official public calendar for September 8-10.) Mr. Obama and Vice President Joe Biden met with Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta at 5:00 p.m. yesterday.

According to a recent study by the Government Accountability Institute, Mr. Obama has only attended 43.8 percent of his Presidential Daily Briefs in the first 1,225 days of his Administration.

The White House responded by claiming that President Obama reads daily intelligence reports, even if he does not attend the briefings personally.

Report: State Department had credible information 48 hours before mobs charged the consulate in Benghazi

Posted by Jammie on Sep 13, 2012 at 7:55 pm

If this is true , the Secretary of State must resign immediately, and probably the president as well. Although leaving Joe Biden in charge isn’t exactly an appealing option. But hey, let’s focus on Mitt Romney instead.

The killings of the US ambassador to Libya and three of his staff were likely to have been the result of a serious and continuing security breach, The Independent can reveal.

American officials believe the attack was planned, but Chris Stevens had been back in the country only a short while and the details of his visit to Benghazi, where he and his staff died, were meant to be confidential.

The US administration is now facing a crisis in Libya. Sensitive documents have gone missing from the consulate in Benghazi and the supposedly secret location of the “safe house” in the city, where the staff had retreated, came under sustained mortar attack. Other such refuges across the country are no longer deemed “safe”.

Some of the missing papers from the consulate are said to list names of Libyans who are working with Americans, putting them potentially at risk from extremist groups, while some of the other documents are said to relate to oil contracts.

According to senior diplomatic sources, the US State Department had credible information 48 hours before mobs charged the consulate in Benghazi, and the embassy in Cairo, that American missions may be targeted, but no warnings were given for diplomats to go on high alert and “lockdown”, under which movement is severely restricted.

It would seem this information would be included in security briefings, but the Empty Chair has no use for those. Maybe we can get a mantra going: Hillary lied, Chris Stevens died!

There is growing belief that the attack was in revenge for the killing in a drone strike in Pakistan of Mohammed Hassan Qaed, an al-Qa’ida operative who was, as his nom-de-guerre Abu Yahya al-Libi suggests, from Libya, and timed for the anniversary of the 11 September attacks.

But the media keeps insisting it’s some dopey video. They can’t be lying to us, can they? You know we figure since Obama isn’t bothered much with his day job maybe he can fly over to Cairo and give another important speech. Maybe between fundraisers with Beyonce and appearances on Letterman.

AS MENTIONED IN THE NEW YORK TIMES ARTICLE:

"Two weeks later, another co-conspirator, Zacarias Moussaoui, was arrested on immigration charges in Minnesota after arousing suspicions at a flight school. But the dots were not connected, and Washington did not react."

Yes, the flight school was in the news------and yes he men were terrorist taking advantage of flying lessons in the USA-----and were not citizens of USA. They could eaily be sitting in your local bar in D.C. having a beer or scotch or martini. Or, have a position in a local state, county or Federal Office.

This is why Trump is correct. At present we have so many immigrants in the nation that we don't know imo who is legitimate and who isn't or who is the next terrorists or not.

At least the writer of the article did not straight out blame Bush------there were many fingers in the pie-----once again the elephant story, each person looks at the elephant in the room and sees only
a part of the elephant.

So what is happening to Hillary Clinton's desire to have everyone in the USA to vote-----no voter registration, no records by immigrants to show they are citizens. How would bubble- head Hillary assure that they are not terrorist?

First, Hillary is not in charge of the voting process in America. Registration and voting are a purvue of the local election boards in our counties and states.

The simple fact that Hillary is running for office, does not give her the right to mandate who will vote
in our elections.
