As expected.... vote-crazed Democrats criticized the Benghazi panel. Vote-crazed Dems question whether Republicans can offer a way forward in balancing the post-Hillary foreign service's handling of security.......versus diplomacy.

Oh, please....let me help Braindead Dems w/ that:

WRT Obama/Hillary's gun-running (Fast and Furious and so on): When Putin finds out that US arms that were sent on a circuitous route from Venezuela to Benghazi to Syria to overthrow Assad, Putin can go to the Hague and diplomatically demand action be brought against the Government of the United States...including every House and Senator and government official that was involved in this... (And that goes for Obama and Hillary, as well.)

There you go... security AND diplomacy ... all rolled into one.

================================================

WHAT DID THE CONGRESS KNOW ABOUT GUN-RUNNING? Read on.

CONGRESSIONAL NOTIFICATION OF ARMS TRANSFERS
Third party transfers are subject to requirements for Congressional notification under AECA, §3(d) (reference (c)), using guidelines similar to those for AECA, §36(b) (reference (c)) notifications (see Chapter 5, section C5.6).

A 30-day prior Congressional notification is required for third-party transfer requests that involve defense articles and services with original acquisition values that fall in one of the following categories: Major Defense Equipment (MDE) with an acquisition value equal to or greater than $14,000,000 for non-North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) recipients and $25,000,000 if the recipient is a member of NATO, Australia, Israel, Japan, New Zealand or Republic of Korea; or any other defense article or related training or defense service with an acquisition value of $50,000,000 or more for non-NATO recipients and $100,000,000 or more for NATO, Australia, Japan, and New Zealand recipients.

Approval is granted after the 30-day (including weekends) period has expired if no objections are raised.

The million dollar question is, Is it worth it to Obama/Clintons/McCain starting a REAL fighting war with Putin when Putin gets close to the evidence of FFII?

You know Putin has the intel but he has to put his hands on the evidence. Where is that evidence located? Northern Syria or Turkey?
