So lets see you want a common sense question about life and death answered. As long as Hillary gets to be President. Well I would want our guys alive.

You can have Hillary as President......then I can fun and Humiliate a US president 365 days a year nonstop. Until she is driven mad and abdicates in sheer disgrace.

Hows that for your conditional question.


Now you.....would you rather have our Guys alive at the Cost of Hillary"s Political Career. Would rather have them alive or Hillary as President with more power.
I'm glad to hear you chose the 4 Americans alive, even if it means Hillary becomes president, because the way you made it sound, was like you were thrilled to have those pictures to use against her.

As for me? I pick the 4 Americans alive. I couldn't care less about Hillary's politcal ambitions.
 
It absolutely is feigned outrage....created by FauxNews. Sure....the incident was tragic, but the who so called "controversy" is a right-wing created fantasy ala whitewater. Nothing but political gamesmanship. Wonder why the vast majority of the country isn't buying it? Why does Faux continue to try to sell this turkey....when it didn't fly the first 134 times?

It does appeal to their base but that doesn't get any extra votes on election day; it only intensifies the passion of those who were going to vote that way anyway. If on the passion scale from 0 to 10 your passion is a 10 and Suzie's is a 3, each vote still only counts as 1 each. We in the GOP have yet to figure out this simple math.

BTW: I haven't tried to confirm this but heard it more than once. The reason Fox News is so popular is they have a lock on the 65 to 70 year old male TV audience by an overwhelming margin. Take away senior citizen males and they are on parity with the other news channels and MSNBC near the bottom overall actually beats all of them with younger viewers in their 20s. Again, I haven't tried to verify this and hope to be a senior citizen male myself one day. ;)
 
It does make me very uncomfortable to watch Republicans delight in the misfortunes of our country. It does seem to me they have put party ahead of country.
Yeah.....its her dept. Her people. Moreover due to her behavior and thinking she could chastise Congress for Questioning her.....and most of all, for using that Ridiculous Statement of What difference does it make.

She should have the common sense to know not step up into the limelight.

I figure if she could trivialize and mock the death of those that have fallen. Then they can be used to put her in her place!

I feel the same way.....yet I see this done moreso with Democrats. Growing up all around them all my life. It wasn't hard to notice. They always put Party before Country. Chicago government has shown that for 75 years.
 
I don't think this will have anything to do with Obama in the end. He slept through it. Hillary, however, is having a carrot fitted to her nose as we speak. I've also heard a rumor that a carpenter on the WH maintenance staff changed the talking points himself while repairing some trim in the Oval Office. I swear, you just can't make this stuff up.

Her point was simply the 4 Americans were dead and the term used to describe the attack didn't change that.
 
I wonder if part of the way I think about conservatives is I am surrounded by them? I see more of their dark side than libs, cause I have exactly 1 liberal friend and several at work.

I saw the hearings.....I watched her behavior. Which changes nothing about her knowing what Libya was like ever since the Ouster of Gadhafi. She has no excuse. Her remarks trivialize the whole issue.

What needs to be asked of those testifying today.....is to ask them what they Felt after she stated what she did. What they felt after Rice Went out and said what she did. Then what they felt when Obama did it. Let them explain how they in those positions felt. Do you think what they felt would be enough impact?

Two things ...

1) It's not delight in misfortunes so much as lies exposed.
and
2) Barack Obama is NOT the Country.

But her performance was not worthy of a Clinton. It was pathetic.
Geezuz ... even John Edwards was better at obfuscation and fake indignation.
And you'd think after years with Obama & Bubba a big dollop of that skill would have rubbed off.

Damn Mak I even had it worse......half my family were Democrats and Cops, all up into elections and city-hall. That voted for the Machine. So in comparing the Dark Side. With both.....it was the left that was far more cruel and devious. Most of the conservatives were.....well.....Conservative. More Upfront when speaking but not outspoken. More into what was Right and doing the Right thing.

I suppose you don't really care that Romney chose to politicize the attack by blaming President Obama on the morning of Sept. 12.
 
I saw Scarborough & his team on Moaning Joe in full pre-vent defense this morning.
Ya know ... no matter what comes out of the hearing they & the Administration's other deadenders have their script ready.

Well that was after Obama Politicized it over a Video.....and down played we got hit on the Anniversary of 911. . Telling Obama to tell the truth and let the American people know. Can't blame Romney for that. If anything he should have pressed Obama on TV.

Thats simply is not true, he spoke before President Obama spoke in the Rose Garden that morning.

HILLARY CLINTON, FORMER SECRETARY OF STATE: With all due respect, the fact is, we had four dead Americans. Was it because of a protest or was it because of guys out for a walk one night who decided they'd go kill some Americans? What difference at this point does it make? It is our job to figure out what happened and do everything we can to prevent it from ever happening again, Senator.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

TAPPER: What was your reaction to that?

SMITH: Well, that's what I want to know. Why did it happen? And she is in charge. Why couldn't she do something about it? I blame her.

TAPPER: You blame Secretary of State Clinton.

SMITH: Yes.


The Smith being interviewed by Jake Tapper is the mother of Sean Smith.

That's Inaccurate.....Obama spoke first when they received Stevens and the Fallens bodies back at Andrews Air Force base. Sept 14th. Rice already had made the Sunday Shows.....evidenced.



When did Romneys remarks Politicize it.....Since they did not have their Debate until after Obama's Remarks in the Rose Garden and after Andrews Air Force base?

I feel for the woman, but she's no in a position to make an objective judgement.
 
Whoops. Go to the American Thinker site. It has the timeline in spreadsheet format. It clearly shows that Hillary announced on 9/11/12 that an internet video was the cause of the attack. In fact, she announced that before the attack was even over. The guys on the roof of the consulate were killed after her announcement.

So does the Daily Mail in the UK. The Complete Time Line.

I have never noticed it from democrats, at least not respected democrat leaders. Maybe I've missed it because all of my adult life I've come to expect the Republicans to always hold the moral high ground, always try to do the right thing, etc. This is something I never expected of democrats who to be honest I never felt stood for trying to do the right thing. Then 2008 comes around and to my utter shock the GOP loses its mind and abandons nearly everything I thought they stood for that drew me to them in the first place and not just no-names like the democrats but some of the most respected voices in our party. Then my experience has been "democrats do the same thing" so since they do that makes it okay. First if they do the same things to the best of my knowledge its unknown crazies with no national stature. Second, I'm sorry but I never expected the democrats to walk the moral high ground, that's why I vote Republican. If there's no difference, why should I vote Republican? So gazzionaires can ship American jobs to third-world sweat shops with the help of the US Congress who their lobbyists payoff then say they problem is taxes, which anybody with a calculator can tell is drop in the bucket compared to not having to pay decent salaries to employees?
