I copied and pasted this from someone on another site who put together the facts.
AND I saved it. Please do the same if you'd like.
NO 2 wrongs don't make it right and every death is horrible, especially if it could have been prevented
but whenever they start talking about Susan Rice (?) and/or Hillary's failure to prevent those 4 deaths,
I remind them of this:
June 14, 2002, U.S. consulate in Karachi, Pakistan
Suicide bomber kills 12 and injures 51.
February 20, 2003, international diplomatic compound in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia
Truck bomb kills 17.
February 28, 2003, U.S. consulate in Karachi, Pakistan
Gunmen on motorcycles killed two consulate guards.
July 30, 2004, U.S. embassy in Taskkent, Uzbekistan
Suicide bomber kills two.
December 6, 2004, U.S. consulate in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia
Militants stormed and occupied perimeter wall. Five killed, 10 wounded.
March 2, 2006, U.S. consulate in Karachi, Pakistan
Suicide car bomber killed four, including a U.S. diplomate directly targeted by the assailants
And how do they reply? With crickets.

(524 posts)These GOP reps and senators are unbelievable. It's like they don't think anyone remembers these things, or better yet, writes them down.
Fools...
