It wouldn't make any difference if so many hadn't died. And yes it did happen a long time ago, and Bush was never grilled over it, then or afterwards.

Americans killed in benghazi attack? 4
Americans killed in Iraq war? 4425
Americans killed in Afghan war? 2,326

British killed in Iraq war? 179
British killed in Afghan war? 456

Total Coalition Killed in both 8,206.

And as you point out, Bush was never grilled on why he went into Iraq, took the pressure off Afghanistan and cost the American people $1.6 trillion.

Still the cost of this witch hunt, $20 million, is chicken feed, compared to the cost of Bush's ability to make good decisions.
