    Say, weren't there 13 Benghazis (dead diplomats) on Bush's watch? Also, let's not forget that he let 3,000 Americans die INSIDE the country on 9/11/01.

    What difference does that make? He was the man in charge. And I'm pretty sure he ain't going to SAY he knew 9/11 was on its way.

    Sometimes you have to look the people in the eye and lie to them so you can get reelected. When will republicans learn?

    Hillary and the democrats have their shorts in a wad since the report said that the murders of the four Amerians could have been prevented.

    Republicans won't let Benghazi go because it's all they have. The Democrats have continually triumphed, like with the success of Obamacare that they're denying. They need to focus on what little they can't get away lying about. However, the public is basically sick of it and this shows in the opinion polls -- the GOP's ratings are at an all-time low.

    They especially focus not on solutions, but on how it happened, seeing a potential hole. What difference does it make how it happened? Whether it was spontaneous or whether it was a terrorist act really doesn't matter, but they're hung up on this. Get the transcript!

    It matters because this nation has a bunch of vets that have fought these Islamic extremists for over a decade. And we come home to a bunch of people saying Islamic extremism isn't a problem, the wars were wrong-headed, blah blah blah. And here was an opportunity for us to justify our expense in blood over the years, but no, Obama and Hillary turned into something that was anti-American, in blaming it on our own citizens and practices. It matters who did it. And you should wonder why they didn't want Americans to know that trained terrorists did this, not a mob of people who were upset because Americans are evil.

    You mean how Republicans made up a story about demonstrations at Benghazi?
    You mean how Republicans made up a story about a YouTube video having anything to do with Benghazi (and probably not anywhere else)?
    You mean how Republicans made up a story about budget cuts affecting the available security and/or assets that we had in the region?
    You mean how Republicans made up a story about Libyan officials being the ones to request the FAST team to change into civilian clothes, when it was actually the State Department?
    You mean how Republicans made up a story about how we called this terrorism the whole time, when the whole world knows they were not calling it terrorism for about 3 weeks?

    Lib rule #23) when faced with a question you dont want to answer post a youtube video that seems relevant but really isnt. This will appear as if you actually answered the question.

    In this case, it's a Bush squirrel!

    WRONG! We wont let it go because it is the right thing to do. Four people died for no reason other than Obama wanted some extra votes. As an American I find that disgusting. I find it even more disgusting that other Americans dont care.

    Here's news for you. The wars WERE wrong-headed. Perhaps not initially in Afghanistan. But the prosecution was FUBARed to the max from the get go. Re: Iraq. Unprovoked invasion of a sovereign country is DECIDEDLY un-American. Just one more reason for the people in that region to hate us and what we stand for.

    There is no justification of our "expense in blood". None. Our young men and women died in vain in Iraq. Tens upon tens of thousands physically and psychologically maimed for life. An expense they will be paying for the rest of their lives and one we, as a nation, will be paying for into the next century.

    So, no, it doesn't matter whether it was a mob inflamed by a video or terrorist inflamed by our national policies. And wherever you got the idea that this administration said that Islamic extremism isn't a problem, you should quit reading that poison.
