We should check the official government budget that was passed to run the federal budget.

Let’s see what that said we were suppose to spend.

What? We haven’t passed one? Since when? I thought it was law the the government had to pass and publish a budget showing how our tax dollars would be spent.

She obviously has been asleep in her crypt and missed the revelations that funding had nothing to do with any of this.

[SpaceBar]

Is she the one with the husband who gets all the feral government contracts?

You may be thinking of Richard Blum, husband of Dianne Feinstein.

Just how much funding is needed to provide security for a complex of warehouses selling shoulder fired missiles, RPG's, machine guns, 50 cal rifles, anti-tank mines, and free toasters, in the middle if violent Islam Jihadville?

Maybe about 4,000 marines and a close support air wing?

Kinda tipping yer hand huh?

[Doogle]

..yeah right...on Sept 11th 2012..there were Marines stationed in Barbados.

That’s making the rounds on comments on the articles.

You’re right B and therefore the ideologue leftist hacks are not low or of no intelligence. The vast moronic hordes of the dems are low information voters because they are low on intelligence—willful or just plain ignorant. So that was my point and just having a little fun with words.

Government funding was cut? Now THAT'S news! I have watched State Department funding increased fivefold over the last decade, so please please please tell me how spending was cut.

[cripplecreek]

But other embassies got their hybrid cars didn’t they.

As a native Californian, I am so proud to have a(n imported) moron representing me in the Senate.

In case a lib spouts this crap,

Boxers claim contradicts findings by the Accountability Review Board and former Libyan regional security officer Eric Nordstrom. Nordstrom testified last week that “[Charlene Lamb, the deputy assistant secretary responsible for embassy security] said that resources was not an issue.”

A talented political cartoonist needs to make one showing the dems circling their covered wagons around a big steaming turd.

Perfect visual. Send to Millard Fillmore (I think - Look him up). The wagons will need names on them with Obama standing on top of the turd directing traffic. Have ABC, NBC, CBS, FOX - labelled house flies approaching while conservatives stand in the distance holding open jars.

Brilliant.

The response to this is “The cost of one white house party would have paid for the security in Benghazi.”

[ColdOne]

DID THE REPUBLICANS GIVE THE STAND DOWN ORDER MA’AM?!

[LibLieSlayer]

No satan’s whore... it was the kenyan liar-in-chief that decided to SPECIFICALLY cut the budget in BENGHAZI.

LLS

[USNBandit]

Not to mention it was a budget that proposed and not passed before there was even a need to have a consular presence in Libya.

[NFHale]

“...Call me “senator”!...”

Nah...

“MISS Boxer” will do just fine.

[NormsRevenge]

somewhere in her little cranial cavity, there is a brain.. albeit a tiny one.. tweet

[blackdog]

Nancy should understand. We had to first put the embassy in Benghazi in order to establish the need to fund security for the embassy in Benghazi.

[God luvs America]

now that’s a keeper...
