This partisan hatchet job of a report doesnt get into that.

Although the administration did kind of fuck things up, both by ignoring security requests before the fact and then having Susan Rice make those stupid statements after the fact. I remember watching her that Sunday and thinking, "What the fuck?" But that stuff is just institutional ineptitude, not the great scandal the Republicans are slavering for.
