These Benghazi/IRS "scandals" are nothing. There is no "there" there. There was no cover up, there was no targeting. It's all a bunch of baloney.
Bridgegate is also nothing. A minor act of political retribution. So what? Politics is a rough game.
The ironic thing is, both sides of this train wreck are the fabrications of the EXACT SAME PEOPLE!
The same political factions that are out to undermine Obama are the same ones who want to sabotage Christie for praising and hugging Obama in the wake of Superstorm Sandy!
This is yet another example of Republicans feasting on the entrails of their own rising stars in order to compensate for the fact that they have absolutely nothing they can make stick on Obama.
Democrats don't have to do or say anything to defeat the Republicans. All we have to do is let them keep opening their mouths and letting the stupid spill out.
Heck, we should pay for their campaign ads! The more they speak, the more the make their case why they should be in charge, the stronger the Democrats (and rational human beings everywhere) get.
So yeah, please keep making your case by posting clips from Fox News.
That has worked out for you so well in the last few elections.
Typically, liberals think that if someone else did it too or first, they are absolved of responsibility if THEY do it.
That people died under other administrations is irrelevant. The difference is that PBO (tap) KNEW the danger, was asked to help, refused to help and then pretended he knew nothing about it.
Salient point: "...pretended he knew nothing about it." Like a child denying that he took the cookies from the cookie jar when daddy caught him red handed.
PBO (tap) is a man who knows nothing ahead of time, denies it when it happens and then blames someone else EVERY TIME. He did the same with Fast and Furious, IRS, NSA and all of his other flub-ups.
He is a rank amateur as a leader and not much better as a liar, 'cause he gets caught every time.
LR: Those "caring" liberals don't care about life, unless its theirs.
The point is that Republicans are frothing at the mouth like a bunch of rabid dogs over 4 dead in Benghazi while they were completely unconcerned and silent when 15 times that many diplomats were killed under a Republican administration.
XO: "The point is that Republicans are frothing at the mouth like a bunch of rabid dogs over 4 dead in Benghazi while they were completely unconcerned and silent when 15 times that many diplomats were killed under a Republican administration."
NO! The point is that Obama KNEW of what was coming and did nothing about it. This is not about Bush, Clinton, Carter or Reagan. It is ABOUT OBAMA!!!!!! HE is the one who ignored the danger, knowing full well about it. HIS action was deliberate, sinister and diabolical. HE knew the 4 were going to be attacked. HE knew when they were attacked. HE knew they would die. HE knew he could help. HE did not help.
Obama is more morally and ethically challenged than Bush, Clinton, Cheney and Nixon all combined. He is dangerous, uncaring about ANYTHING but himself, personally and he thinks something is true because he says it is, even when it is not.
Joe - I think I know what the point of my own comment was.
Where was your ALL CAPS OUTRAGE (!!!) when those other diplomats were killed?
You weren't ooutraged because you either didn't care, or, you were willing to give Bush the benefit of the doubt and assume that he was doing everything he could to protect our diplomats. Something you are completely unwilling to do for Obama. Now, why could that be???
I, and everyone I know, was outraged that our embassies were attacked and people were killed, no matter which president it was under.
The difference is that the other presidents didn't know there was going to be an attack, didn't turn down requests for help, nor did they blame anything on a movie when everyone knew that the movie had nothing to do with it.
Not even in the same league as that traitorous, narcissistic president we have now.
Piro ranting about Benghazi. Come on Joe, talk about being down to seeds and stems.
Now, she clearly wants to deflect the criticism for her buddy Christie but Benghazi is all she has? She's pathetic.
If you are going to go after Obama's mistakes try NSA spying or Trans Pacific Partnership fast tracking. Demonstrate some level of being informed rather than whipping the Benghazi horse.
Keep up like this Joe and you want like what Hillary does to you in 2016.

----- Absolute nonsense. he press only gave cursory reporting. They didn't get apoplectic (don't pop a vessel, Glenn) and do a Lara Logan.
When a serious attempt on our embassy in Turkey was thwarted by the State department's recent security was that piped in 24/7? Did you even read of the event, Glenn?
Nope. You really should make an attempt to stay informed.
U.S. Ambassador Christopher Stevens, who died with three other Americans in last year’s attack in Benghazi, Libya, turned down offers of additional security from military personnel on two occasions
Wasn't this reported on Fox? Do try and keep up fellas.

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.

Yup. People dead. Bunch of baloney.

Take your phony, hypocritical "outrage" over Benghazi and choke on it.
XO: "...wasn't "Unknown""
Actually, you are pretty well unknown.
Typically, liberals think that if someone else did it too or first, they are absolved of responsibility if THEY do it.
That people died under other administrations is irrelevant. The difference is that PBO (tap) KNEW the danger, was asked to help, refused to help and then pretended he knew nothing about it.
Salient point: "...pretended he knew nothing about it." Like a child denying that he took the cookies from the cookie jar when daddy caught him red handed.
PBO (tap) is a man who knows nothing ahead of time, denies it when it happens and then blames someone else EVERY TIME. He did the same with Fast and Furious, IRS, NSA and all of his other flub-ups.
He is a rank amateur as a leader and not much better as a liar, 'cause he gets caught every time.

The fringe right spends so much time on Benghazi that it's little wonder they're so misinformed.
Joe - You miss the point of my comment.
The point is that Republicans are frothing at the mouth like a bunch of rabid dogs over 4 dead in Benghazi while they were completely unconcerned and silent when 15 times that many diplomats were killed under a Republican administration.
As usual, the Republicans reveal their hypocrisy.

XO, They won't let anything shatter their conspiracies and moist scandal dreams. Ignorance of the facts is their bliss.
Who are we to wake them up. Forget what I wrote Joe and Glenn. Roll over and go back to sleep.
