In a speech on the Senate floor on Tuesday, Sen. Barbara Boxer (D-CA) said that Republicans in Congress should look into a mirror when asking why the attack on an American consulate in Benghazi was as deadly as it was. She said that House Republicans who voted to cut security funding for overseas embassies are directly responsible for the lack of security personnel at that outpost. Boxers claim is contradicted by testimony delivered before a Congressional Oversight Committee hearing last week.

Seems sometime ago, someone from the budgets office was asked if security funds were too low to provide more personnel and the answer was a resounding “NO”! The democrats are very famous for the lying ability.

that’s an interesting point as well, that I hadn’t seen elsewhere!
Even if the funding were cut the budget that cut them never was passed. Shameless, really

What's the State Dept. budget again?
She must have been taking her nap while the hearings were taking place and testimony given that money was not an issue.

Good grief. Even Hitlary isn't using this lie Boxer of Rocks. Embassay security is the responsibility of the State Department. Benghazi happened on September 11, 2012. "Sequestration", which was 0bama's plan (remember?) didn't begin until 2013.
AND, remember 0bama's debate performance (October 22, 2012) regarding HIS 'Sequester' ... which he also said wouldn't happen ....
Bob Woodward: Obama 'mistaken' on sequester ... What the President said is not correct.
NO ONE was blaming Embassay security funding. Boxer o rocks ... EPIC FAIL.

G-d help me, but if this 'woman' was within striking distance, I would not be responsible for the carnage that would ensue.
Anyone wanting on or off this ping list, please advise.

The 'low information democrats' will slurp this up and embarrass themselves when confronted by someone knowledgeable. Correction edits.... 'No intelligence dumbocrats' --- there, all fixed now.

I vaguely remember a story about the French Embassy getting a fleet of new cars at the same time Benghazi was denied funds for security.

I don’t associate much with low intelligence democrats,
but I do know some that are reasonably intelligent,
but just ignore any realities that damage their worldview.
