Yep.
The ‘consulate’ was front for the CIA Annex.
Why bother with ‘real’ security for a fake entity.
Hence why a British contractor who agreed to provide security without using firearms was used.

“The contract was largely based on expediency, U.S. officials have said, since no one knew how long the temporary mission would remain in the Libyan city.

FAST is funded by the DoD.
In-extremis rescue teams are funded by the DoD.
Sheryl Lamb said funding was not an issue.
Ma'am, you're dumb as a Box of Rocks.
The original hiring requisition for the bengazi guards included for hiring homosexuals.
Too bad Chris Stevens' expense account couldn't have covered as easily as Hillarys. Maybe he just didn't plan ahead as much.... Oh, wait! He did have those denied requests for increased security, didn't he?!
When State used the Al Qaeda-affiliated February 17th Martyrs Brigade ("THE ENEMY") for security, were they chosen because they were the low bidder? Did they pay us for the site plans and building blue prints we afforded them to be able to help in the attack?
Was the recent $250M Zero paid the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt related to this past Benghazi "job well done," or are we awaiting some similar return yet in future?

Didn;t sequester kick in months AFTER Obama Bin Ghazi...
An example of the State Department’s wise use of funding is the recent decision to spend $10,000,000 on crystal glasses. I guess they cannot have both the good crystal and money for security. So that is the fault of the GOP, right?
You CANNOT fix retarded!
For those looking for evidence that liberalism is a mental illness, look to Barbara Boxer as a case study!
Talk about pissing into the wind. Of course that’s hard when you’re Diane Feinstein — more like squatting into the wind.
FY 2012 Budget Request March 10, 2011The second part of our request funds the extraordinary, temporary portion of our war effort the same way the Pentagon’s request is funded: in a separate Overseas Contingency Operations account known as OCO. Instead of covering war expenses through supplemental appropriations, we are now taking a more transparent approach that fully reflects the integrated civilian-military efforts. Our share of the President’s $126 billion request for exceptional wartime costs is $8.7 billion. So all told, we have a $47 billion operational account and an $8.7 billion Overseas Contingency Operations account.
(snip)
But let me just quickly walk you through this, because on this issue of our $8.7 billion Overseas Contingency Operations, we have the strongest support from Secretary Gates, from Admiral Mullen. And next week – I was speaking with General Petraeus last night. He will be here on the Hill strongly supporting the civilian effort that goes hand-in-hand with what he is doing so heroically in Afghanistan. So we are funding vital civilian missions in Afghanistan, Pakistan, and Iraq with this $8.7 billion.
She's in one. It's called Congress.
Cover for Hillary not working.
Boxer is getting slow in her old age. I expected to hear this crap come out of her days ago.
You must be a mind reader. LOL
Babs it’s all over for you DEMOCRATIC FRAUDS. BENGHAZI is going to take you socialist frauds right back into the gutter where you losers belong. THE FOREIGNER, MRS. WHAT DIFFERENCE DOES IT MAKE. WITHHOLDER, BIG DUDE and even you SHORT RUNT. All should be prosecuted and jailed in my opinion.
Dumber than a Box of Barbara Boxers.
Oh, it goes back farther than that, Babs. It all started when Ronald Reagan stole the election from the democrats, not once but twice.
A radio talk show host referred to this troll as the malignant midget from Marin.
He was being too kind.
How did the “house republicans” do anything? Didn’t the senate democrats have to support whatever spending was authorized?
I WISH the house republicans could just cut things. That would make our country a lot better.
