Remember the State Department had no money for Benghazi security because of the mean GOP. But it can always seem to find huge chunks of cash for really stupid things like this.

The State Department has always done things asswise backwards, but this exceeds even their historic stupidity.

Nor can we expect anything better under John “I Was In Vietnam” Kerry.
