Iamon lyme: So if not liberals, then who told republicans "...the budget needed bolstering on the defence of such places"? Other republicans?

I think it was the body within the US gov looking out for security of embassy's etc... At the time of the last budget setting for the likes.

Individual names.. I can't remember.. Maybe it was Mr E J Fudd??

"If republicans aren't to blame for the screw up in Benghazi, then what exactly is your point?"

Point!

"And why would anyone be telling republicans we need to bolster defenses?"

Because the Republicans were voting against more funds.

"I may have mentioned it. Is that what you're talking about?"

Yep.

"One time I talked to someone who started off claiming to have an IQ of 170. That should have been my first clue that something wasn't right with him. He told me the Bible was one of five books (representing five major religions) he reads, because they all (collectively) represented what he believed. I told Mr IQ of 170 it didn't make sense for him to include the Bible in that group, and explained why. And all he needed to do to see if this was true or not was to read what his Bible says about it. Mr IQ of 170 didn't like that, not one bit... because I was right. My average bowling score at that time was well over 200, so take THAT Mr IQ of 170!"

Sorry, it was a mystic church.
