WASHINGTON, Oct. 12 (UPI) -- White House spokesman Jay Carney Friday backed the vice president's statement he and the president never were briefed about security at the Benghazi consulate.
In his debate Thursday night with Republican vice presidential nominee Paul Ryan, Vice President Joe Biden said, "We weren't told they wanted more security" at the consulate in Benghazi, Libya, where U.S. Ambassador Christopher Stevens and three others were killed in a Sept. 11 attack.
