Now the Republicans are using the tragic death of four Americans to raise money.

Republicans raising money off Benghazi effort

On a new fundraising page, the committee asks for donations to keep up the fight, declaring it a “coverup” and using pictures of President Obama and former secretary of state Hillary Clinton.
The page implores supporters to “demand answers.”
 
One cannot help but remember when Obama, again campaigning for president, put out a nationwide call for those getting married to put his name on their bridal registry list instead of the bride.

Talk about no shame.

I hope they raise a huge pile of cash so they can bring the justice those dead Americans deserve...but haven't gotten yet.

Like fish in a barrel

Team Obama still raising money--off Sandy Hook shootings | WashingtonExaminer.com

They won the campaign handily and even had $14.2 million to spare, but the Obama-Biden campaign is still raising money, this time off the president's comments about the Sandy Hook Elementary School shootings in Connecticut.

In email from chief campaign advisor David Axelrod that urges supporters to watch President Obama's moving address to the community of Newtown, Conn., there are two links that open a page with a video player featuring the president's speech and two donate buttons asking for $15-$1,000 for his campaign.

EDITORIAL: Blumenthal uses Sandy Hook to raise campaign cash- The New Haven Register - Serving New Haven, Connecticut

The issue took a disgusting political turn on Thursday, though, when U.S. Sen. Richard Blumenthal, D-Conn., used Sandy Hook to raise money. The money is not for one of the relief funds set up to help victims’ families, or to fund mental health services, or to support autism research.

It is just like gerrymandering. When the Republican's gerrymandered Texas after the 2010 census, the Democrats cried high crimes and misdemeanors and accused the Republicans of jury rigging elections. Then the democrats happily gerrymandered Illinois it was the republicans turn to cry high crimes and misdemeanors and jury rigging elections. As long as you have people that believe it is more important to be Republican or Democrat than an American, these things will continue to go on and America as a country will continue to suffer.

Justice? Are you going to put someone on trial?:wow:

The man responsible roams freely throughout Libya holding court in coffee shops

The corrupt Obama Administration paraded some poor schmuck who created a 10 minute youtube trailer across national headlines and marched him off to jail

He is still rotting in jail as we speak
 
thanks for the heads up, i'll send a check

Totally sick, but probably the real motive behind Issa's most recent witch hunt. The problem is, there's diminishing returns with this tea party strategy, as normal people begin to realize how odious and freakish conservatives really are.

Are you refering to the thousands of Americans who lost their lives in Bush's vanity wars?

we all know barack hussein obama's entire foreign policy, especially the closer you get to the t-word, or the i-word, or the j-word, is assume full ostrich posture

but you really gotta have your head buried if you don't know what's issa's real motive

LOL!

seeya at the hearings, they're gonna go on forever

I actually don't have any illusions that those responsible for the deaths of our four Americans will be brought to justice, but just maybe, those American's loved ones will finally get some answers.

I guess that means those who play party politics have to decide...do we care more about justice for 4 American adults or 20 American children?

Or you can decide to keep your money and spend it on something that will benefit you more, like stock in a typewriter company :)

So you think we should not have gone after Bin Laden and Associates in Afghanistan? Of course you don't. You must be of French descent.

I just spent $10 of my money on a Chinese buffet tonight. It was probably the best investment I made all day. After all, winter is only 6 months away.

???

Is someone trying to block justice for the deaths of 20 children? I hadn't heard of that.

Or, could it be you are employing that hyperbole you are famous for?

If you think justice is being blocked for the 4 in Libya, then justice is being blocked for the 20 in Connecticut.

sigh...there's that problem with logical thinking again. You really should work on that, don't you think?
 
Benghazists are a plague. Hopefully, they'll die off like the birthers and truthers.

My logical ability is just fine. Republicans claim they want "justice" for those in Libya. Democrats claim they want "justice" for those in Connecticut. If you choose to ignore the facts, I cannot help you.

I'm still trying to figure out what exactly Benghazists are wanting. We know it wasn't the video, we know Americans were dead, we know there were breakdowns in the chain of command that could have provided help and we know their security should have been stronger. We've known all of this for months. What exactly are they wanting at this point, besides trying to score political points?

Unfortunately they also never died off. The coverage they garnered just disappeared when society realized they were complete and total idiots. We just have to bide time until our wonderful news organizations realize this yet again.

They want to fabricate ammo against Hillary Clinton and what looks to be like her impending run for prez in 2016 that they are terrified of.

Exclusive: The RNC Benghazi Attack Ad that Never Ran

It was the Benghazi attack ad the Republican National Committee created but never aired.

ABC News has obtained an ad the RNC made last fall and approved to air in the final weeks of the presidential campaign. The ad begins with a replay of Hillary Clinton’s famous “3 a.m. phone call” commercial from the 2008 campaign and then cuts to video of the burning U.S. consulate in Benghazi Libya.

Over the images of the attack–in which four Americans were killed–words appear on the screen:

“The Call Came … On September 12, 2012.” As the screen goes black, the words continue: “Security Requests Denied. Four Americans Dead. And an Administration whose story is still changing. The Call Came.”​
