#1 One person close to the issue told Fox News: "They should be doing an investigation to see what the chief of base in Benghazi and station chief in Tripoli did that night. If they did, they'd find out there were some major mistakes."

If you found out what they "did" you might also discover who told them to 'do' it. We certainly can't be having that, now can we ?

#2 "That decision [by the CIA IG to not investigate] was based on a determination that the concerns raised fell under the purview of the State Department's Accountability Review Board, and that a separate OIG action could unnecessarily disrupt the FBI's criminal investigation into the Benghazi attacks"

So they're still going with the line that it was Foggy Bottom's "underfunded project".

#3 I would wager a month's pension that Benghazi was immediately classified as an operationally related 'Serious Incident' and a full damage assessment [investigation if you will] was concluded within 30 days, max.

I'll wager another month's pension that damage assessment will never see the light of day.

#4 Given the level of BS, I'd say it directly points to the presidency, either Obean's or any potential Democratic successor.

#5 Go with "White House," and it'd be more accurate.
