Benghazi Panel Gets More Cash Than Veteran's Panel-Rethug Priority

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2014/07/07/benghazi-committee-budget_n_5565430.html

snip:

House Republicans have requested nearly $3.3 million to operate the select committee investigating Benghazi, which gives the GOP-launched committee a bigger budget than that granted to the committee overseeing the troubled Department of Veterans Affairs.

Follow the money and you will always find where the Rethug priorities are. Politics before Veterans. Not surprising.
