EVER!

I will never let them forget it. EVER.

went back to looking for "companions" in public toilets. He only tells people he likes hanging out in public toilets for the aroma.

But make him talk about it.

The death of 4 American diplomats was a tragedy and Congress has a proper role in investigating what happened and how such tragedies can be prevented in the future (i.e. not cutting spending for security at embassies/consulates) but some Republicans like Graham, McCain, et. al are acting as though 3000 American citizens died here on American soil and the President of the United States of America and his national security team had received an intelligence briefing nearly a month before indicating that something wicked was this way coming. I don't remember any members of the "Benghazi Brigade" attacking President George W. Bush and demanding the kind of accountability and scrutiny over 9/11/01 that they are demanding of President Obama over the events of 09/11/12. What's even more surprising (or depressing depending on your point of view) is that McCain, Graham, et. al have apparently been spending more time holding press conferences attacking would-be Presidential nominees for various critical agencies and grandstanding than actually attending briefings that have been held on what exactly happened in Benghazi, where they might, you know, get some of those "answers" that they keep demanding.

Exactly.

What happened in Benghazi was more like a car bombing. The 4 people died not directly from the attack but from the smoke when the building caught fire and there was no fire exit in the building. That's right, the building was a death trap.

makes me want to

Both he and McCain need to go the fuck away!

But I suppose I'm not an expert.

How can anyone take his concerns about security seriously when he's holding up these nominations for defense and intelligence?

The idiot-fringe.

Panetta has said he would stay on board until his successor is confirmed. Even if he got tired of waiting, the President would simply name an acting Secretary of Defense (as has been done in the past). Its not "treason" to block the confirmation of the president's first choice for Secretary of Defense (even though its something that should not be done lightly).
