Where I give you my slightly quirky opinion, and you can give me yours, as long as you're man or woman enough to be civil and control your language.

About Me
- Joe
- I was born in Miami, Florida, the son of an Air Force officer, traveled the world, was saved at age 17, and have served the Lord since. That's me on the left and my lovely wife, Bonnie...the pretty one...on the right.
There Are But A Few Rules To Follow
1. Absolutely no foul language (including the use of asterisks). If you are not man or woman enough to control your language, you are not welcome here...go somewhere else.
2. I am not looking for strings of commenters arguing with each other, so confine your comments to the topic at hand and address your comments to me, unless you can be exceptionally gracious and polite.
3. Since this is my blog, I am the sole arbiter of what can be placed on this blog. My decisions are final and without recourse. All anonymous comments, unsigned, will be deleted, as will ad hominem attacks against me or others.
4. Within the scope of those rules, you may feel free to have fun here (I sure will). Sarcasm, wit, half-wit, nit-wit, parody, satire, puns (especially puns), etc. are encouraged.
FOUR PRINCIPLES THAT DEFINE TRUE CONSERVATISM:
1. Respect for The Constitution
2. Respect for Life
3. The Smallest Possible Government
4. Individual Responsibility
This blog is about my philosophy of government, which is a very conservative philosophy.
You are not required to agree with me (although you would be better off if you did).
I am biased toward conservatism, and make no apologies for that.
Freedom means not being controlled by the government, that being the very reason we declared our independence from Great Britain.

Government's job is not to provide things for people, but to provide the opportunity for people to persue the things they want via the vehicles of freedom and responsibility.

WHY I CALL HIM "PRESIDENT BO"
I call him "President" out of respect for the office. I call him "BO" (as in Body Odor) because his agenda stinks.
I also refer to him as our "Acting President."

Joe - Judge Jeanine raises some good points here. It sounds as if not everything was on the up and up. Maybe as if someone wasn't doing their job. She ought to be put in one of these positions to find out what really happened.
Odd..they still blame Bush for not having done enough to prevent 9/11. I keep wondering if, because they'd heard "it could be with planes", the Left's implying that he should have grounded all planes indefinitely until they found out who could do such a thing :-)
Yup..it's all BLAME BUSH but let something this obvious be ignored and "they just didn't know.."
Powerful commentary! When will the liberals wake up? After they are under sharia law, perhaps?
I tried, Joe but as soon as she mentioned Benghazi it what "turf this nonsense".
Pure hysteria.
Ducky: "...as she mentioned Benghazi..."
"Pure hysteria."
Yeah. The principle that the U.S. should protect its own is hysteria.
The principle that our government agencies should share their knowledge and resources is pure hysteria.
The idea that a cover up has been exposed is pure hysteria.
The fact that Americans were killed after having asked for help is pure hysteria.
You are purely hysterical.
The fact that Americans were killed after having asked for help is pure hysteria.
-----
Wrong !
The casualties were taken early in the attack. No casualties were incurred after any request.
Sheer lies and hysteria.
You hang on to Benghazi because it's such a strain to engage in serious debate and discussion.
Embassy attacks occur and there is no way to stop them all. There have been few under Obama. Pirro is a cheap hack.
This whole Benghazi hysteria is so transparent.
Look, Benghazi was a dangerous post. It wasn't an Embassy, it was a Consulate. That means it had minimal security. Ambassador Stevens and his staff knew that going in.
The only reason that the Republicans are SO DESPERATELY trying to hammer away at Benghazi is because they want an issue they can use against Hillary in 2016.
They know there is no "there" there. But if they can generate enough news links and sound bites about Benghazi now, then in 3 years they can trot them out and link to them as though Benghazi was an actual thing. Americans in general are stupid. Republicans even more so.
This is all about the 2016 presidential campaign. The republicans are TERRIFIED that after 2 back to back Obama administrations, they will be forced to choke down 1 or 2 Hillary Clinton terms.
By which time the Republicans will be as irrelevant and quaint as the Bull Moose party.
They are are on the wrong side of history, the political momentum is against them, and they know that if they are out of power for another 4-8 years they are doomed.
So keep yammering about Benghazi like it matters.
We all know what this is really about.
Judge Jeanine is one hell of great Judge and a great American.
Yeah, XO, no doubt they want to keep Benghazi alive as a talking point against Hillary.
It's going to be the same clown car they rode out for the 2012 primary.
Wonder where they'll find a drunk to replace Perry.
XO & Ducky: You are both as blind as bats and unable to see what's important.
Joe - Our vision is sharp enough to see what you and yours think is important.
Z: Bush is responsible for the fall of mankind in the Garden of Eden, hadn't you heard?
XO: " It wasn't an Embassy, it was a Consulate."
Oh, well. Thanks for the explanation. It being a Consulate makes everything alright.
OK, you terrorists. Go ahead. Attack our Consulates all you want to. We don't care. In fact, we promise to do nothing to stop you or slow you down. Have at it!
Joe, the failure of the attempted bombing in Ankara this February was attributed to recently improved security measures.
Many embassies have been upgraded and as we have told you, attacks during the Obama administration (as well as casualties) are down.
It's hardly a matter of doing nothing, However, what we should not do is act rashly out of blind retaliation. Remember Iraq?
Remember when the right let themselves be played for suckers?
Where has The Progressive Queen Shaw been latey?
Ducky: "Remember when the right let themselves be played for suckers?"
If I understand you correctly, if the right let themselves be played for suckers, it is perfectly OK for the left to do it too.
It's back to David and Ricky Nelson, all over again. Just like ignorant, spoiled brats.
That line of thought is utterly disgusting.

Absolutely none of that made any sense. Have you had a stroke?
XO: I really didn't expect you to get it. It takes innate intelligence to know that one of the running jokes on the Ozzie and Harriet Show was the way David and Ricky fought: "Did not." "Did too." "Did not." "Did too." "Did not." et cetera, et cetera, et cetera. Just like liberals argue.
It's you who have had the stroke.

Nooo, I'm just not as quite as ancient as you. Close, but not that old.
Maybe you can make yourself more relevant by quoting some Donald O'Connor quips from some "Francis The Talking Mule" movies.
XO: Never liked fake talking animals. "Mr. Ed," "Francis the Talking Mule," "Dr. Dolittle," etc. never made me laugh.
Real humor requires the sudden unexpected...ie: surprise.
No surprise in your response. Totally expected.
Stand down, XO. Joe won't know the full story until he consults Judge Judy and Judge Joe Brown.
Judge Jeanine has, obviously, had some work done. There's a massive "cover up" going on here.
Can't judges, even TV judges, be impeached?
U.S. Embassy and Consulate attacks under George W. Bush:
Jan 22, 2002 - U.S. Consulate at Kolkata - 5 killed
Jun 14, 2002 - U.S. Consulate at Karachi - 12 killed
Feb 28, 2003 - U.S. Embassy at Islamabad - 2 killed
Jun 30, 2004 - U.S. Embassy at Tashkent - 2 killed
Dec 6, 2004 - U.S. Compound at Saudi Arabia- 9 killed
Mar 2, 2006 - U.S. Consulate at Karachi (again) - 2 killed
Sep 12, 2006 - U.S. Embassy at Syria - 4 killed
Mar 18, 2008 - U.S. Embassy at Yemen - 2 killed
Jul 9, 2008 - U.S. Consulate at Istanbul - 6 killed
Sep 17, 2008 - U.S. Embassy at Yemen (again) - 16 killed
That's 60 dead! Where was the Republican's righteous indignation and outrage? Where were the congressional investigations?
They were completely nonexistent.
But when 4 people die in Benghazi, this is the biggest scandal since Watergate!
What a crock of crap. This is all about Hillary in 2016 and nothing else.
XO: In not one of those cases was a complete cover-up attempted. Unlike the Obama administration...which is even trying to cover up its cover-up of its cover-up.
It's ten times worse than Watergate. No one died at the Watergate.
You have elected a Chicago style thug, a community organizer rabble rouser who hates the principles on which America was founded (as do you, despite your proclamation to the contrary). He wants to fundamentally change the United States into a complete Nanny State in which the government approves or disapproves of every aspect of American life.
That's called "dictatorship."
Joe - "XO: In not one of those cases was a complete cover-up attempted. Unlike the Obama administration...which is even trying to cover up its cover-up of its cover-up."
Here's the problem with what you just said..."THERE WAS NO COVER-UP!!!"
We all knew the consulate was attacked and 4 people were killed as soon as it happened! It was all over the news! The State Department talked about it! The President talked about it! It was a huge story!
What the rabid right wing nut jobs are so desperately clinging to is the confusion in the immediate aftermath of the attack regarding who did the attacking and why.
That's not a cover-up!
XO: "What the rabid right wing nut jobs are so desperately clinging to is the confusion in the immediate aftermath of the attack regarding who did the attacking and why."
Immediate aftermath = 3 weeks? 5 weeks? How long is the immediate aftermath, anyway?
Just last month the Administration was proclaiming that they had done everything they could to avert the attack and get help there as fast as they could.
Avert an attack they firs said they didn't know about. Help with a C-130 available less than 15 minutes away (while they claimed hours). Caused by a video (the story for five weeks), which even I knew better than...so I know they did.
No cover up? Only if you change the meaning of the words...which liberal do to suit their agenda.
