The tampon joke you may have missed at the Republican National Convention
You don't expect to hear about feminine hygiene products when speakers discuss Benghazi during the Republican National Convention.
But that's just what happened during the 20-minute speech given by U.S. Marine Corps veterans Mark Geist and John Tiegen, in which they gave a highly detailed, step-by-step account of their experience during the 2012 terrorist attack on the American embassy in Benghazi.
While Tiegen described a fellow combatant putting gauze in his ear, the member of the Benghazi Annex Security Team couldn't help but make the comparison to a tampon.
