Obama administration is careless about, or is reluctant to find, evidence of terrorism.

Or 'evidence' of their own deadly cock-up. Neither Ambassador Chris Stevens or Border patrol agent Brian Terry could not be reached for comment.

#2 Deliberate contamination of the crime scene. Also, where is this 3rd shooter? There were reports by people at the venue that there was a 3rd shooter. Why has this disappeared down the memory hole?

#4 The FBI might have been trying to get the information out about the terrorists and they were prevented by their overlords. So maybe they hoped someone in the press is not so bought and sold that they will photograph the many ids, the bank account, and multiple items. Perhaps that was the only way to make them available.

#5 I cannot believe that the FBI morons left so much behind...shredded papers in a wastebasket, notebooks, papers, journals and books, etc. They should have taken everything up to and including the wallpaper. You can always give it back. This is a major investigation into terror with presumed unidentified suspects remaining at large, and they left all this behind? Incredible incompetence. Weeks or months later, someone is going to say "Hey. Wasn't there a ___ in the apartment?" Oops. Too late now.
Idiots. But then, the FBI has always been about PR rather than ability.

#7 Why would you need evidence when you've already written the narrative. Like there's not going to be a trial in which real evidence is needed.

#11 It's possible the FBI found a treasure trove on the hard drives, figured the folks popped off early and didn't wipe it right as they would have been told.

Also it would be a nice way to dump red herrings into the story by having pre-shredded papers to replace with the existing onesLet the media find it and decipher it and spread the misinformation about the head of iSiS or whatever. . I'm not saying the happened but that's a missed opportunity.

Of course with our media they'd screw that up as well.

#14 A friend of mine is a retired FBI agent. He said he was very surprised that they let CNN in so soon.
