“Tragedy” —Something bad happens, and then there is NO blame at all.

Dude, “We should have tried!” Then a scandal like this wouldn’t have to be “politicized”. Right Candy? Show ‘em Candy!

Yes, incompetence and lying to cover it up is now a “tragedy”.

Was Watergate a Tragedy? I guess not, nobody died.

He has a point. Politicizing a tragedy is patented by Democrats, so Republicans would be infringing on their patents.

It was not a tragedy.

Benghazi was a treasonous atrocity.

Illegal weapons trafficking gone bad, resulting in the deaths of Americans and distribution of antiaircraft shoulder fired rockets, mortars, night vision gear, and 50 caliber weapons to Islamic lunatics which will be used against more Americans for decades to come.........

Is not politicizing Benghazi. It's just truth.

Carney is such an idiot, he actually makes me miss Baghdad Bob Gibbs..Hey Carney, Benghazi wasn’t a “tragedy” a tragedy is when someone is killed in a car accident, what Benghazi was was cold blooded murder..and the White House knew it was coming and did NOTHING to protect them..this was all an effort to do the Blind Sheikh for Stevens swap which failed, the White House let these men die

The tragic part of this is that the administration sacrificed Service Personnel to avoid political damage.

The tragedy is that 4 Americans were sent to their deaths for political expedience-to hide catastrophically poor security decisions by POTUS and the Sec. of State.
