what is amazing to me is that the left is so willing to ignore things like Benghazi....or Fast & Furious. CNN tried to make Benghazi happened. They spent weeks reporting on it. It turned out there was no there there. However, per usual, that doesn't stop Rs. They've got nothing else so they try to hammer a popular president with this crap. The real culprits..........who forced cutbacks of embassy security: But hidden beneath the GOP campaign is the fact that House Republicans voted to cut nearly $300 million from the U.S. embassy security budget. *When asked if he voted to cut the funds this morning on CNN, Chaffetz said, “ Absolutely“:* O’BRIEN: Is it true that you voted to cut the funding for embassy security? CHAFFETZ: Absolutely. Look, we have to make priorities and choices in this country. We have — think about this — 15,000 contractors in Iraq. We have more than 6,000 contractors, private army there for President Obama in Baghdad. And we’re talking about can we get two dozen or so people into Libya to help protect our forces? When you’re in tough economic times, you have to make difficult choices how to prioritize this.
