When will Romney hit Obama on Libya mess?

DENVER — Each day brings new revelations about the Libyan consulate attack that killed Ambassador Chris Stevens and three other Americans. In the latest story, from the Washington Post, reporters found sensitive U.S. government documents at the burned-out consulate in Benghazi — a location journalists can visit but which the FBI apparently deems to dangerous to inspect in the official investigation.

Earlier, there were revelations of repeated attacks and threats directed at U.S. facilities and people in Libya — and news that American diplomats had requested more security from the State Department, but were denied.  More information will come out next week when the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee holds a hearing on the matter.  And then, of course, there are the Obama administration’s evolving and inaccurate accounts of what happened in Libya.
