The republicans destroyed our economy in 2008. As a result in 2009 (?) they voted to cut embassy security, and one of the republicans who voted for this bill said that "in tough economic times sacrifices have to be made". And we got Benghazi as a result. So really the republicans are the ones to blame for this.
