   Greetings All;
   
   Hope you are enjoying the Show in Orlando and hope you golfers had some nice weather. It is amazing that Mr. Christie was attacked because of the GW Bridge which he said he had nothing to do with. Of course the people on the Left said he did.
   
   The Liberal NY Times Paper came out with sort of an apology to Mr. Christie realizing maybe he had nothing to do with this event. Here is my point - it did not take long to have an investigation - simply - he is a Republican.
   
   How about the IRS scandal. The lady takes the 5th amendment and retires and end of story except that bonuses will be given out now that were not last year. They are Democrats.
   
   Benghazi - Democrats lied and are getting away with it and Lord forgive, our President, time and time again fabricates the truth a little. And, of course blames Fox News for his problems. Well, you liberals have fun with this, I know you will.

   As for Chris C time will tell looks like the rats are all jumping ship at this point.
   
   You can Blame the POTUS but it was not just him:
   
   Barbra Boxer put it:
   It takes funding to protect an embassy. It takes funding to protect a consulate. It takes funding to protect an outpost. Yes, it takes funding. Who cut the funds from embassy security? The Republicans in the House, that is who — hundreds of millions of dollars. If it were not for the Democrats, it would have been cut more, because when it came here, we stood our ground. We had to accommodate their cuts. That is how the process works. So I think the Benghazi ‘scandal' starts with the Republicans looking in the mirror. Mirror mirror, who is the fairest of them all? They ought to ask: Mirror, mirror, who cut the funding for diplomatic security across this world for America? The answer: Republicans.

   Rep. Jason Chaffetz (R-Utah) joyfully takes credit for supporting legislation that cut funding for embassy security, leading to the death of three Americans from an attack against an under-staffed outpost in Benghazi, Libya.
   
   Paul Ryan, Darrel Issa and other House Republicans voted for an amendment in 2009 to cut $1.2 billion from State operations, including funds for 300 more diplomatic security positions.
   
   Under the Paul Ryan's budget, non-defense discretionary spending, which includes State Department funding, would be slashed nearly 20 percent in 2014, which would translate to more than $400 million in additional cuts to embassy security.

   Now Keith, the republicans and voters won't remember their part in that. I'm sure the ads this fall won't either.
   
   Not that Secretary of State Clinton and the administration deserve a pass; it appears everyone had a hand on what happened in Benghazi. And who's to say the attack wouldn't have happened even with a beefed up force? What numbers would they have needed to not be at risk?
   
   As for Gov. Christie, I think the bridge issue itself is the tip of the iceberg and not really the big issue that is going to come out. For example Gov. Christie stood up against the federal dollars being offered for another tunnel which according to many is sorely needed, yet once he got his appointee for the Port Authority in charge, they ended up doing more projects that spent more money than the new tunnel would have cost NJ on their part. Not that I disagree with infrastructure spending, but I guess the bad deal is the political way he went to get what is best for Jersey. I guess the deal is too political for me, and the one change in infrastructure spending is the cost and benefit of the project, what benefits the most people. But we should wait until the whole deal is complete.

   Eric Nordstom on Charlene Lambs testimony 2010. [quote">REGIONAL SECURITY OFFICER ERIC NORDSTROM: Yes, she said that resources was not an issue. And I think I would also point to the ARB report, if I'm not mistaken, that they talked to our chief financial officer with D.S. [Diplomatic Security], who also said that resources were not an issue This was not even considered a consulate it was a temporary facility in control of the CIA and not the state. Everything Barbie says is not gospel but if she says it enough people believe. Amazing how Christie was a media darling and in photo ops with POTUS before the election in 2012 and now since he may be running they must tear him down. AKA Mccain. Also you guys never brought up the lying that went on for days after the attack, POTUS on down in the administration. Spontaneous attack, unorganized because of a anti muslim tape?
