michael hayden former c.i.a. mer nsa director and the former homeland security secretary michael chertoff released this statement. it's clear that any failure was not on the part of the intelligence community but on the part of white house decision-makers who should have listened to and acted on available intelligence. blaming those who put their lives on the line is not the kind of leadership this country needs. bold statements for the former intelligence folks like hayden to make in this environment. let's bring in panel. bill kristol editor of "weekly standard." kirsten powers for daily beast. syndicated columnnist charles krauthammer. bill, start with the libya and go from there in this debate. >> i think that was the great opening, great failure of joe biden in this debate. not only did he not improve what was a tenuous and tough contradictory story of the administration on what they knew about what happened in benghazi and when they knew it, he made it much worse. he is now accomplished other minor things in

well, two officials today, michael hayden as well as michael chertoff basically suggested that the administration was pushing off blame. they said in a joint statement, quote: it was clear any failure was not on the part of the intention community but on the part of white house decision makers who should have listened to and acted on available intelligence blaming those who put their lives on the line is not the kind of leadership this country needs. can i tell i i asked jay carney broadly about the intelligence here. he insisted today there was no actionable intelligence that gave the administration heads up a terror attack was coming. he also said he believes a lot of these charges that are flying around are about politics and the election not about the fax of the case, shep. >> shepard: ed henry for us at the white house tonight. romney says he knows who won the vice presidential will debate. we will find out if voters agree. teaming up on the campaign trail tonight check up with them in the battleground state of ohio. that's coming up inside fox report. >> first, more than a month later secre
