    It's the same as the 4 embassy workers dying because Hillary Clinton failed to listen to the H.I.C and her HR2 provision refusal....

    Nobody is going to do anything about Hillary in 2016. Obama's ass-kissing media will simply cut over to be her ass-kissing media on a full time basis. There won't be anything said about her weird "fainting spells" that conveniently occurred just in time for her not to have to testify to Congress.

    Nobody is going to do anything about Benghazi, or about Libya. Senator Lindsey Graham calls the report on Benghazi "crap": http://www.foxnews.com/politics/201...se-report-on-benghazi-calls-findings-garbage/ . It's obvious that the Obama regime learned another lesson from the Nazis that has stood the test of time. Loosely translated, it is that "if you repeat a lie often enough, it will be accepted as the truth".

    Whatever. One thing is clear -- that when Obama broke the War Powers Law in 2011 to unleash war hostilities on Libya he set in motion a disastrous foreign policy chain of events that destabilized all of North Africa, led to Benghazi, and, most recently, has resulted in the United States being forced to abandon our Embassy in Tripoli, Libya because of the Islamo-Nazis that Obama allowed to take over the country. Good job, Obama!

    But Benghazi? Ha! Anybody who signs up today to go overseas to represent the Federal Government of the United States is a SUCKER....

    Who was in charge of that investigation? The Obama Administration? Democrats?

    Yeah because facts don't matter to the GOP, even when the GOP's own inquiry makes the ruling; not the so-called lib press.

    Personally O was disgusted when Cons attempted to and still attempt to make this Tragic event into t political tool and I am no happier when a Lib decides to use the same event to attack the other guys.
    Four people died, hindsight is always 20/20, ensure we do not make the same mistakes again and move on to something worth our attention.

    I didn't realize it was a conspiracy that Obama, Hillary and Rice told us it was in response to an anti-Muslim movie and not a planned terror attack.

    Even if we take this report at face value, it shows that Obama and Hillary created a policy which put their people at risk. They miscalculated, and they refused to listen to people who told them the danger was growing. They compounded their error when they supposedly believed a stupid story about a video when it was already being debunked. They bought television time in Pakistan to appolgize for the video, and Obama mentioned it in a UN speech. If they were honest about the video, it reveals Hillary and Obama to be Dumb and Dumber. I don't know which is worse--that Obama conspired to hide his foreign policy failures in the Middle East by limiting protective measures or moving people out, or that events reveal the president and secretary of state to be too stupid for their jobs.

    Four men died, and others were injured, but no one except their families care. The rest are trying to use the tragedy to hurt or help the present administration.

    Gee, I was going to say exactly the same thing!

    I have not doubt that Fox will be yelling "Breaking News" about yet another recycling of previously discredited claims. Why change the pattern?

    AFter all, Monica is past her shelf life, so Benghazi will have to do. Facts don't matter in the right wing media bubble, and if they can make enough noise, maybe they can scare the folks who aren't paying attention into believing that there's something to it.

    Republicans have tried to make political capital out of Benghazi while they conveniently ignored the fact that more Americans dies in embassy attacks under Bush. This should seal the deal and prove once again how full of crap these right wing liar all are.


    But when you think about it, it wouldn't surprise me to see the Republicans try to find another angle in this and try once again to create yet another scandal out of nothing.

    Don't worry, Gorn. Fox's aging and bitter viewers have long forgotten about the selective and timed outrages of Benghazi and the War Against Nordic Blue Eyed Yet Somehow Still Middle Eastern Baby Jesus. They will be yelling from the wheel chairs while trying to determine how to spend their social security check.

    I think they transferred the meme from Bill O the Clown to Meghyn Kelly, who changed to to a silly discussion about whether a mythical figure HAD to be white!

    If you ever doubt the demographic of Rightwing Media....look at all the ads for "supplemental Medicare insurance" on Fox News...or the spots with "America's Teen Heartthrob" Pat Boone....or the commercials for "in-home nursing care" on Rightwing Radio.

    Here's what really goin' on Folks.This is exactly like the
    Birther bidness.Republicans are now using talking pts.
    like ... Just move on already.Live in the Real World,Mike
    Rogers,a Republican, led a committee and found nothing.
    Therefore the Republicans are going along with the hoax.
    Like Obama's birth certificate.Just go along with the cover-up.
    Amuse the Democrats.The Republicans aren't about to make
    any new friends,politically by harping on the Benghazi Cover-up.
    This sounds like a combination of advice Charles Krauthammer,
    a soft cookie jew and Karl Rove give.
    Just cave and let the Dems get away with another hoodwink.
    Like Fast & Furious and the IRS Scandal and the VA Scandal.
    How about the Bo Bergdahl flap.That came & went.The report
    was out a month ago.Not a peep as to what the finding.
    I'm starting to think the Liberals and Democrats are on to something.
    Republicans Cave. They have no backbone when it comes
    to going after their Opposition.Democrats and Obama are relentless
    and fierce.At least they are passionate about their political wars.
    Like James Carville said - " This is WAAAR ! ".
    I can't take too much more of these SOFT COOKIE REPUBLICANS.
    Especially those pundits who advice.
    Democrats are in Unison and Never say never.They are
    committed.That is why they pull the shenanigans they do so
    often.Because Republicans are Soft.
    *Mike Rogers looks like a Pillsbury cookie boy.
    He'll have more than enough time to sit around and
    munch on cookies,starting the new year.Why must he take
    Conservatives with him.

    * Retiring from Congress,announced more than 6 months ago.

    .....

    Surely you don't take the word of a former serial car thief, arsonist, and liar, like Darrell Issa...or do you? The State Department $2.2 Billion was for paychecks for employees, costs of running the various embassies, repairs, and upkeep of soldiers' quarters. The terrorist threat was real: small skirmishes were already happening and the Benghazi Embassy needed extra security and funds for that were turned down multiple times by the Issa Committee thereby sealing the fate of the four American deaths in the ensuing attack. If there was evidence of more security for the workers, there would probably have been no attack by terrorists of Benghazi.

    The following is a true account of the multiple pleas for funds, and the attempts to cover up the results of their criminal negligence to provide the needed security:

    Rep. Darrell Issa (R-Calif.) says the State Department is sitting on $2.2 billion that should be spent on upgrading security at U.S. embassies and consulates worldwide, but the Obama administration will not spend the funds.

    Democratic Congressman Refuses To Let Republicans Ignore GOP Security Budget Cuts In New Benghazi Hearing
    by Aviva Shen Posted on May 5, 2013 at 10:00 am

    "Lynch pointed out that Republicans voted against additional funding for embassy security when Secretary of State Hillary Clinton requested it:

    LYNCH: When Secretary Clinton and the State Department asked for additional funding for embassy security, Republicans all voted no. They all voted no.

    WALLACE: We’re getting a little bit off track now. I understand there’s an issue about security. It’s a little bit off the track. I want to stay on course here –

    LYNCH: No, this is the point. They're complaining about a lack of security at the embassies after they voted against funding for security at the embassies. Is that not related?"

    Rep. Jason Chaffetz (R-UT) a primary driver of these new hearings, was one of the lawmakers who voted to cut nearly $300 million from the embassy security budget. Chaffetz shot back that funding had "nothing to do" with security. In the past, Chaffetz has defended his vote to cut funding by saying it wasn't a priority.

    Republicans who voted against funding have tried to claim that the Department of Defense was responsible for security, not the State Department. However, a State Department review of the attacks emphasized the need for more funding to prevent new security threats."
    see: http://thinkprogress.org/politics/2013/05/05/1964651/lynch-benghazi-budget-cuts/
    ......

    We see a pronounced program of denying funds for additional security that may have saved the lives of the four Americans who died needlessly because of republican obstruction of security desperately needed. This makes Darrell Issa, Jason Chaffetz, and the republicans in the Oversight Committee all directly responsible for the carnage that followed in the attack. They should be brought up before a Board of Inquiry to ascertain the scope of their criminal negligence resulting in the deaths of four Americans.
    .....

    It is always nice to debate with you when you are in the mood, Professor Peabody......:grin:

    It is incomprehensible that somehow the blame for funding for additional security would be blamed on republicans. This responsibility falls directly on the executive branch and the state department, Obama and Hillary. They are the ones who received the requests from Benghazi, and they alone were the ones who denied or ignored the requests. Congressional funding played no part in the President's or Hillary Clinton's decision not to beef up security. This was proven in congressional testimony:

    [video=youtube;meIL1QaOt1s]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=meIL1QaOt1s[/video]​

    The fact that the president lied for weeks about Benghazi is a scandal of his own making. His non-action the night of 9-11 has also proven to be a political decision not to escalate and create the impression that his policies have ended the war on terror. The lack of cooperation and transparency, the stonewalling and cover-up has been a disservice to the public and cost many millions of dollars more. Benghazi could have and should have been finished and out of the news if it weren't for the administrations cover-up on all levels. The attempt to blame republicans in anyway is laughable.

    I see a lying congressman Lynch lying on national television. Not anything new for democrats.

    It would devastate and blow the minds off of Fox News Christians if they ever realized that Jesus, Moses, Abraham, and Noah looked like 'dem filthy A-rabs'

    If we've learned anything about the right-wing, facts won't dent their dedication to beating a dead horse if they think it helps tenderize it when they need a source of red meat from their less-than-oblivious constituents.

    The dems already played that card/game.Pelosi ran around for
    awhile saying if not for the Republicans and those tea Party type
    voting down with appropriations cuts there would have been
    funds necessary.What she didn't realize at the time was,More
    Democrats than Republicans voted for cuts in appropriations in
    the House.

    what's hilarious is that even if the early Christians made up a story about how Jesus was born in Norway and somehow made his way into the Middle East, it would still be deemed plausible by today's believers.

    it's almost like they don't really care about evidence.

    What are your thoughts on Deputy Assistant Secretary of State Charlene Lamb's admission that funding had nothing to do with the denial of additional security to the consulate in Benghazi?

    What are your thoughts on the lies that the Obama Administration fed the American people for their political gain?
