This continues to get more interesting. On Sunday, Feinstein says the only part of the message the White House changed was to correct references of the facility from "consulate" to the more accurate "mission". Yet everyone from the media to Obama have continued to call it a consulate ever since, with nobody speaking up to correct them.
Also, at the second debate, Obama said he "gave out three instructions as soon as he heard the 'consulate' was being overrun. The first of those three instructions was to beef up security at every consulate and embassy in the region."
So... it was important enough to clarify it wasn't a consulate the day of the event, but not important enough to include "missions" being beefed up when he gave orders? I guess we see now why this place had inadequate security to begin with. If it's not a consulate or an embassy, it ain't making the short list.
