2011, GOP cuts Embassy security by half billion, H. Clinton sez threatens security.

and yet according to testimony today, there are plenty of assets for security, according to Amb. Kennedy and Lamb.


quit ignoring this. There were enough assets, they just felt more were not needed in Benghazi. Period. This according to Charlene Lamb and Amb. Kennedy in the hearing today. There was no shortage of funds.

If you had taken the time to watch it you might have learned something.
 
You're such a fucking hack.
A House Republican aide said the Appropriations Committee gave Obama all of the $689 million he requested for security upgrades under the embassy security, construction and maintenance portion of the State, Foreign Operations and Related Agencies bill.

Dean a hack?.....does it show?....

I confess, if an "aide" said it, it must be true.
 
duplicate post. but yeah the Repub House voted to cut funding for State dept security.

Fox TV has gone too far AGAIN!!! People like WillowTree & Stephanie will think they're telling the truth too :eusa_doh:

Myths And Facts About The Benghazi Attack And Protests In The Middle East | Research | Media Matters for America
Fox's Gretchen Carlson Suggests Consulate Attack Was "The First Successful Terror Attack Since 9/11." During the September 17 edition of Fox & Friends, co-host Gretchen Carlson asked, "Did the first successful terror attack since 9/11 just happen under President Obama's watch?" [Media Matters, 9/17/12]

THAT DOESN'T EXCUSE THIS ADMINISTAION even if it's TRUE of IGNORING warnings and blaming this on a American citizens who produced a film
 
so the debate now according to obama is Romney defunding big bird, but dems voting to and ignoring state dept. security? not a word...:lol:

No one ignores State Department Security more than Republicans. No one. Especially if the warning comes from a Clinton.
 
Hillary yanked Bengazi security team in August of this year.

Nothing to do with funding, as confirmed today in hearings by Lamb and Kennedy.

Spam thread failure.

Because Republicans said so and they are so honest. Especially the men, which is why they wouldn't allow women on a Republican panel on "women's issues". Because men know best. Especially Republicans. Always honest.
 
Well what the fuk was it? The world's greatest and only superpower couldn't afford to ship and equip a company of Marines to protect the embassy because ....sniff....sniff congress reduced the budget? You left wingers are worse than stupid. You are stupid, politically ignorant and insulting.

Kennedy and Lamb are not Republicans, asshole.
 
Think about it. We have multi billion dollar Navy Carriers that use more gas per hour than the entire starved-for-gas state of California does in a week and democrats claim the reason they left a US Ambassador defenseless was because of budget cuts? You gotta laugh or you will go crazy.

^^^^ Which has nothing to do with your OP.^^^^

But when questioned, Lamb denied that budgetary concerns had influenced her decision. committee “It has been suggested that budget cuts are responsible for a lack of security in Benghazi, and I’d like to ask Miss Lamb,” said Representative Dana Rohrabacher (R., Calif.). “You made this decision personally. Was there any budget consideration and lack of budget which lead you not to increase the number of people in the security force there?”

“No, sir,” said Lamb.

“This is a disturbing example of the Republicans’ meat-ax approach to cutting every aspect of the government, no matter how essential,” said Senate Democratic Policy Committee Chairman Charles Schumer (N.Y.) in a statement to The Hill.

GOP cuts to embassy security draw scrutiny, jabs from Democrats - The Hill - covering Congress, Politics, Political Campaigns and Capitol Hill | TheHill.com

Last year, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton warned that Republicans’ proposed cuts to her department would be “detrimental to America’s national security” — a charge Republicans rejected.

Ryan, Issa and other House Republicans voted for an amendment in 2009 to cut $1.2 billion from State operations, including funds for 300 more diplomatic security positions. Under Ryan’s budget, non-defense discretionary spending, which includes State Department funding, would be slashed nearly 20 percent in 2014, which would translate to more than $400 million in additional cuts to embassy security.

Protecting Embassies Costs Money

---------------------------------------------------

Everything given to this administration has been tainted by Republican first. Was I right? Republicans have caused more damage to the country than al Qaeda? Imagine the damage they could do if they officially worked together? Instead of Republicans wasting so much time saying government can't do anything right and then making sure that happens. Seems like every time Republicans blame something on Democrats, we only have to wait a day to find out it started with Republicans.

Whoops....

I'm always amazed when the GOP slashes stuff, and then wonders why there wasn't enough money to take care of things that needed handling.
