WASHINGTON (AP) The House has voted to establish a new investigation of the deadly assault in Benghazi, Libya, with Republicans vowing to dig deeper in a search for truth.
Democrats say the election-year inquiry is actually a political ploy to raise campaign cash and motivate GOP voters, and they're weighing a boycott.
The vote Thursday was 232-186.
Four Americans, including Ambassador Chris Stevens, died in the Sept. 11, 2012, attack on the U.S. diplomatic mission.

Nothing in future attacks were effected, etc.
So 11 Benghazis and 54 deaths under W, no problem
911 and 3500 dead, no problem
Iraq on lies and 100 thousand dead, no problem
am I the only who is so furious I am shaking?
