This sounds like you are blaming Obama's administration for not knowing about a pre-planned attack on our consulate. I don't think I was the only one who got that from reading this. You also imply that everyone in the administration must be on the same page before making any public statements. Which I agree is ideal, however, in the real world, some people don't compulsively check their inbox or thoroughly read their email.
