Thanks Carl- from the link
"The fact is that, since 2011, the House has cut embassy security by hundreds of millions of dollars below the amounts requested by the president," said Maryland Rep. Elijah Cummings, the committee's senior Democrat."

The real criminals behind Benghazigate, methinks. Starving the beast, again? You betcha.

Wasserman-Shultz pulling a page from the Obama playbook - the page titled "If you repeat a lie enough times it will morph into the truth". Even Piers Morgan (no Obama hater) hasn't the stomach for it:

Mezz, you do realize that Morgan used to be the editor of Murdoch's sleazeball tabloid News of the World, don't you? Do you also know that he has been implicated in the phone hacking scandal that resulted in Murdoch shutting down that paper?

Frankly, I thought Morgan's behavior in that interview was atrocious (and not a little sexist). He constantly interrupted Rep. Wasserman -Schultz to browbeat her and pepper with accusations and questions which he then refused to allow her to answer.

Red meat for the Trogs but far from anything remotely resembling journalism.

So, the administration was just supposed to reveal all of the intelligence information about what was being attacked and why?

Shades of cutting the military.

Still, it doesn't change the fact that they reported a problem and nothing was done.

Come on. She wasn't answering. She was repeating the same already exposed lie over and over again to avoid answering the question. Morgan's a decidely softball interviewer. Even he was having trouble stomaching her b.s.

God you're such a lefty tool.

Let me ask you this: What if the head of the Republican party was asked about the statements they made based on faulty pre-Iraq war intelligence, and responded: "Well that doesn't mean it was false. It doesn't mean that it was deliberate." I'm sure you and your lefty pals would be highly critical of that response, wouldn't you? In point of fact, I think you have been.

Gawd Whellie, you're such a fallacious fool. Do we need to count the ways? You're almost as shallow as Mezz these days. Did you just see that Rasmmussen is calling it for Obama?
