Ah Nohater, it appears you get your information from the "main stream media" which, in case you haven't noticed, is intent on Obama's re-election and regularly with holds any news that is detrimental to his Lordship. If you want the names of who requested security and who denied security then try expanding your sources of information and get the facts from Fox News, The Daily Caller, Breitbart.com. World News Daily, The Washington Examiner, et al.

There were funds worth billions available that could have been used if it was requested. The major reason it wasn't budget related was the fact that there was no request for additional money as security levels were deemed sufficient.

Is this guy for real. A disgusting, lying, self serving creature without any core values. If his budget cuts were not to be blamed why then does he blame the President for a terrorist attack. Does he think the U.S. can prevent any attack, any demonstration in all places of the world?

Issa isn't blaming Obama for the attacks, he's blaming Obama for ignoring repeated requests for increased security.

Issa is another corrupt congressman as corrupt as Duke Cunningham.

This man does not belong in a position of political authority.
His actions in office speak for themselves.

In February 2011, the Watchdog Institute, an independent nonprofit reporting center based at San Diego State University, published an investigation alleging that as leader of the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform, Issa built a team that included staff members with close connections to industries that could benefit from his investigations. The Huffington Post also published the Institute's investigation.

Attorney General of the United States Eric Holder was harassed by this crook.
Eric Holder was exonerated of any responsibility over the "fast and furious" gunrunning scheme which he was only being briefed of when events came to light.

This Issa is a sore on the constitution, a zit on our justice system who belongs inside prison, not on the outside critical of them.

It wasn't an issue? Republicans voted to cut security funds and as a result Americans died and now they want to use these deaths for their own political purposes.

Until it came out that ALL Republicans voted against this they were blaming Obama for cutting the security funds, now they are trying to cover their lie.

What kind of people would use the deaths of American diplomats for personal gain? Not loyal Americans, that's for sure. Republicans are not loyal to this country.
