Benghazi victim's mother asks Trump to stop talking about son's death

Quote:
"I know for certain that Chris would not have wanted his name or memory used in that connection," Mary Commanday wrote in the letter, which was published Saturday. "I hope that there will be an immediate and permanent stop to this opportunistic and cynical use by the campaign."
Not all of the victims' families agree.

Chris Stevens
If you don't have the money you don't go. If anything Congress screwed up by not cutting off all funds to the gun running operation to fund the terrorists.

We most certainly would not allow another country to run guns out of the U.S. so I have no idea why we would think that other countries would be fine with it.

While I feel bad for his wife and mom, Stevens actually got pretty much what was coming to him.

Gun running is a dangerous occupation especially one run by idiots who don't even know the players.

If family members of the deceased want to be used by rethuglicans and dishonor their family member's death, then why not?

how is what a stranger says about your death dishonoring it? also, there's no honor in dying and with trump in charge, if theoretically he was the president during that time, they probably would still be alive.

Yeah, becuase no politicians used the deaths of Trayvon Martin, Michael Brown, etc for political capital

Pot meet kettle.

Or Trump could arrange for a bigger room and fill it with disgruntled/burnt Laureate International Universities/Walden University Online students from around the world lured in by Slick Willie, who was paid many millions to persuade these then potential students/promote the institution.

Even if it didn't end up accomplishing anything politically, if it raised Hillary's blood pressure it would be worth it.

Personally, both candidates are sorely lacking in every quality of leadership possible.
" But there was no crimininality"

WOW!

Why aren't you on the Supreme Court?

Or maybe you should replace Debbie Schultz.
