nope you are wrong as usual sonny! GOP COMPLAINING ABOUT BENGHAZI SECURITY ISSUES DESPITE PREVIOUSLY DEMANDING EMBASSY SECURITY CUTSIt looks like the GOP’s tendency towards history revisionism is continuing to bite the party in its collective ass. The Hill published an article in 2012 showing exactly where Republicans in the House of Representatives stood on security measures for foreign embassies like the one in Benghazi. Not at all surprisingly, it doesn’t reflect well on the Republican Party at all. “Republicans have sought to cut hundreds of millions of dollars slated for security at U.S. embassies and consulates since gaining control of the House in 2011. “Democrats are scrutinizing the GOP proposals in the wake of attacks on U.S. embassies and consulates in the Middle East, one of which saw Ambassador to Libya Christopher Stevens and three other Americans murdered.” Jesse Ferguson, a spokesman for the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee, says: [iframe width="336" height="280" frameborder="0" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0" vspace="0" hspace="0" allowtransparency="true" scrolling="no" allowfullscreen="true" id="aswift_1" name="aswift_1" style="box-sizing: border-box; max-width: 100%; margin-bottom: 20px; left: 0px; position: absolute; top: 0px;"][/iframe] “When House Republicans protect budget-busting tax breaks for millionaires first, and slash embassy security, they reveal that their tough talk on national security is really just hollow words.” Wow. But if you’re as amazed at the audacity of House Republicans as I am, you haven’t seenanything yet. Jennifer Hing, communications director for the House Appropriations Committee, said: “It is extremely distasteful that some ill-informed Democrat staff are using the instability and violence abroad to score cheap political hits.” Because that’s not something we’d EVER witness amongst Republicans, ever. *COUGH*
