HA-HA<...Paul Ryan’s fault, thats the ticket
The ‘I wasnt involved or even watching’ POTUS Obama
“Some Democrats blame inadequate congressional funding for diplomatic security”
“Biden: “The congressman here cut embassy security in his budget by $300 million below what we asked for.”
The facts:
According to Democratic House Oversight Committee staff, the amount that the GOP-led House passed for two accounts that pay for embassy security in fiscal 2012 ($2.311 billion) was $330 million less than the Obama administration had requested ($2.641 billion).
A GOP House Appropriations Committee aide confirmed the House bill had less in these accounts than what the administration requested.
However, the final bill, after being worked on by the Democratic-led Senate, put in more money than what had passed in the House. The final bill, which passed with bipartisan support, gave a total of $2.37 billion to these accounts for fiscal 2012 — about $270 million less than what the administration had requested.
Conclusion: The GOP-led House did initially approve about $330 million less than what the administration requested, but in the final bill, passed with bipartisan support after adjustments by the Senate, put the amount a little closer to the administration’s target.”

I seem to recall something about Gowdy wanting to serve only a limited time in Congress.
I think we need to advise him that America needs his leadership and ask him to sacrifice his earlier goals.
