Would that be tea for two or two for tea? And would that encounter include any of the righteous/all-American/patriotic Tea Partiers?

Actually, more democrats than republicans voted to cut funding. But, that doesn't matter since they still had over $2 BILLION in their operating accounts. Yet, when it came time to send our Ambassador into a known terrorist hotbed, the state department's priority was to send Chevy Volts to our embassy in Geneva.

Experts on both sides agree there was plenty of funding. No way did the lack of funding contribute to the four deaths. The four deaths are due to politics and The Kenyan's lies so he could be re-elected! Period!

No death penalty for Benghazi accused...

US won't seek death penalty against Benghazi suspect
May 10, 2016 | WASHINGTON (AP) — The Justice Department will not seek the death penalty against Ahmed Abu Khattala, the suspected Libyan militant charged in the Benghazi attacks that killed a U.S. ambassador and three other Americans, federal officials announced Tuesday.


The department revealed its decision, which pushes the case forward toward trial, in a brief court filing that offered no additional explanation. In a separate statement, spokeswoman Emily Pierce said Attorney General Loretta Lynch made the decision after reviewing the case and consulting with federal prosecutors. She said the department is "committed to ensuring that the defendant is held accountable" for the 2012 attacks.

Abu Khattala's attorneys, who have challenged the strength of the government's evidence, had implored the Justice Department to remove the death penalty as a possibility should he ultimately be convicted of any capital crimes at trial. With that punishment now off the table, he would face a maximum sentence of life in prison if found guilty. "It was a decision that was the correct decision, but was also a courageous decision — so we're pleased," one of his attorneys, Eric Lewis, told The Associated Press.

Ahmed Abu Khattala

Abu Khattala, captured by U.S. special forces in Libya two years ago and brought to the U.S. aboard a Navy ship, has been awaiting trial in federal court in Washington in connection with the September 2012 violence at a diplomatic compound in Benghazi. Prosecutors have described him as a ringleader of the attacks, which quickly emerged as a political flashpoint and became the topic of congressional hearings involving Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton, secretary of state at the time of the rampage.

The 18-count indictment arises from a burst of violence that began the night of Sept. 11, 2012, at a State Department diplomatic compound, an attack prosecutors say was aimed at murdering American personnel and plundering maps, documents and other property from the post. U.S. Ambassador Chris Stevens was killed in the first attack at the U.S. mission, along with Sean Patrick Smith, a State Department information management officer. Nearly eight hours later at a CIA complex nearby, two more Americans, contract security officers Tyrone Woods and Glen Doherty, died in a mortar attack.

The administration tries to blame their own incompetence and poor decision making on Republicans. Too funny.

I thought that you said the GOP blocked everything that Obama Wanted. The sequester was the Bamsters Idea

And maybe they could have done with a few less Chevy Volts
