In between voting the 41st time and the 42nd time to repeal or defund Obamacare, the Republicans have reopened their investigation into Benghazi!
They are irate that four Americans lost their lives in a terrorist attack in what is essentially a lawless area of a foreign country still in the throes of a revolution.
Yet just a mile or so away from their domed office space, twelve Americans lost their lives in a terrorist attack in a supposedly peaceful nation. And nary a whimper from them…despite the fact that the Senate was actually in lock down for a period Monday after the shootings.
They aren’t willing to protect Americans at home! WTF is wrong? Hypocrisy isn’t a strong enough word by a long shot!
Great post!
Thanks.
The two incidents mentioned are not even remotely related. To claim hypocrisy is off the mark for this reason.
No even remotely related? Insufficient security at a US government facility is insufficien security at a US government facility. I would suggest that the Navy Yard incident is even more serious since it was an insider who attacked American citizens on American soil.
Does this suggest to anyone, keeping us safe is not the key reason for NSA info-dragnets on you and me?
