    Better thank house republicans that voted down security funding requests by the state dept. in both 2011 and 2012.

    the response from house leadership was 'it's not necessary'. now issa and some other douchebags are laying blame? look in the mirror you dimwits and get ready to be voted out in november.

    Oh yeah, it's really simple to put blame on everyone. Just because you vote against certain extra spending doesn;t mean a thing. The question I would have is how were other embassies guarded? Could resources have been moved in order to guard the current high risk situations, etc. It's not black and white.
