I wonder if State had raised holy heck about embassy security, they may have prevailed? However, it takes two to tango. The blame, dear Petronious, lies with both houses.

But interestingly, only one side is taking responsibility...

Laughed out loud at Rand Paul's "if I were President...". Don't have to worry about that happening anytime soon Mr. Aqua Buddha.

When you have the facts, pound the facts, when have the law, pound the law, when you have nothing, pound the table

Well put!

(You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to walrus again.)


"Did the administration deliberately put forth a story they knew wasn't true for short-term political purposes?"

"How dare you suggest such a thing when four people are dead!"

(Translation: duh, yeah, but you can't possibly expect me to admit it now, can you? :rolleyes: )
 
Re: The 4th Global War on Terror - Deja vu all over again!

I don't suppose any of you knucks' were going to bother posting the public's overwhelming support of Hillary Clinton in all of this?

Which leads to a question: If you righties (flag, fishy, walrus, opie, etc) were so smart, why are liberals wiping their backsides with you every election? Logic would dictate those big brains of yours would figure out a way to be successful once in awhile, right?

yeah, that overwhelming majority of the Demagog Party in the House of Representatives is really imposing, isn't it?

Yeah, right.

What is the standard then? Should not one American life be worth the full efforts of the United States Government? I have real qualms when somebody says that the number of Americans involved is statistically insignificant.

Kind of an interesting discussion on the day of the March for Life.

That's just the kind of argument that drives me nuts as a conservative. Every time -- and I bet you've noticed this too -- every time some nanny-stater wants to raise the minimum car seat age to 12, every time someone wants a law increasing the drug-free zone outside of schools from 200 yards to 400 yards, every time someone tries to make a law's penalty longer because of perceived hatred in the mind of the attacker -- when wiser heads say, "Look, we already have laws in place for some of this stuff, and, frankly, as adults, we have to admit that sometimes you can't do anything to prevent tragedy, and sometimes nobody is to blame," they wheel out the photo of the child freakishly killed in some extraordinarily rare way and say, "I have real qualms when you say this child's life is statistically insignificant."

It a bull****, emotional argument, and it tramples any chance of seeing the situation honestly, and on top of everything it only gives people the fake sense that they're doing something.

Gun ships have guns, spray a few million rounds and the "film protesting crowd" would have been long gone.

Good idea. Mass murder on a city street. GW would be proud.

Sprayed doesn't mean aimed at, just a huge show of force. You think its fine an Ambassador was just allowed to be tortured and killed, with no intent on Obamas part to save him?

I see. So, now it's Obama's fault that he died. Well, I seem to remember a certain memo that GW Bush received before 9/11 so I'm sure you're pinning that 3000 or so deaths on him, correct?

The ambassador was tortured? Since when?

And no one is saying it's fine. But that doesn't mean we start yet another war, either.
