About this Article

Congresswoman Judy Biggert is calling for a thorough investigation of why the terrorist attack on the American embassy in Libya was able to succeed. She believes there was a failure to beef up security at the embassy. Her opponent, Bill Foster, said it's easy to second guess the security in hindsight. He feels the security was appropriate unless there is evidence that further assistance was requested and not received.
