Nice to see Jon Stewart taking things seriously

Still, I would like him (and others) to take Benghazi more seriously. I find the most egregious thing about Benghazi was blaming the video for the violence. At the time I was infuriated. I felt this was a "teachable" moment. I felt that we should have defended the First Amendment (the right of free speech) and not only should have defended it but we should have promoted it to the Arab world. Yes, I realize it would have fallen on deaf ears as, to many people, blasphemy always supersedes free speech.

Now we find out that the movie had nothing to do with it. The administration through the First Amendment under the bus for what?
