Members chrispsullivan Posted November 28, 2012 Members Share Posted November 28, 2012 Or when your told 4 different stories in a short time, btw are we still blaming that youtube video?YEEEEAAAAA TEAM! My point is that there is never public outrage from Americans dying overseas unless it serves some political agenda. In 2002 a U.S. Consulate in Pakistan was attacked leaving 10 dead. In 2004 a U.S. Embassy in Uzbekistan was bombed leaving 2 dead and 9 injured. Also in 2004 a U.S. Consulate in Saudi Arabia was attacked leaving 8 dead. In 2006 a U.S. Embassy in Syria was attacked leaving 1 dead. In 2007 a grenade was launched into the U.S. Embassy in Athens. In 2008 rioters set fire to the U.S. Embassy in Serbia. Also in 2008 a U.S. Embassy in Yemen was bombed leaving 10 dead. There was no public outrage or call for an investigation for any of these events, yet people are suddenly concerned with the security of U.S. outposts abroad over the Benghazi incident. I'm calling the media coverage of Benghazi like I see it, and it's all bull{censored} to further a political agenda. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Mr. Friendly Posted November 28, 2012 Members Share Posted November 28, 2012 But McCain thought Condoleezza "watch out for the MUSHROOM CLOUD" Rice's appearances on Sunday talk shows was just peachy. After all, she was just going by the prevailing intelligence info, not her fault it turned out to be flawed. But that Susan Rice, she was ....just going by the CIA's info that they had at the time, which turned out to be flawed. Yeah, nothing political here. Condoleeza was simply mistaken, while Susan is lying covering up for that Socialist Obama. After all, if the American public had been informed that the embassy attack was by Al Qaeda and not by some crazed fundamentalist mob, they would have voted for Romney in a landslide. Yes, it would be Pres.-Elect Romney waiting for January if only that lying Obama hadn't had Susan Rice go on Meet The Press at 10AM on a Sunday morning and lie her collaborating mouth off. Yeah, nothing political here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members wrongnote85 Posted November 28, 2012 Members Share Posted November 28, 2012 What the {censored} is going on in here? this, word. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members thenakedarab Posted November 28, 2012 Members Share Posted November 28, 2012 So much this. Out of all that happened in Benghazi, you have a problem with the whistle-blower Maybe you should actually look and see what the Obama administration did, or rather didn't do, about this event. Also maybe you want to look and see what actually happened, who did it, and why the administration is trying to cover it up. Lindsay Graham is not a whistle-blower, he's an opportunist and a hypocrite. If it was his team on deck when this {censored} happened he would be decrying anybody questioning the circumstances and implying a cover up as an unpatriotic conspiracy theorist at the least, and probably a traitor to boot. So, quick question here. Does anyone remember how loudly Mr. Graham called for an investigation into the circumstances that led up to 911, and the Bush administration's dismissal of the warnings and intelligence that pointed to such an event on the horizon? I'm guessing mice fart louder than Mr. Graham's calls for investigation into the worst terrorist attack in American history. In my near 30 years of interest in politics I can think of only one or two people I detest more than that smarmy-hypocritical piece of {censored}.

Members HKSblade1 Posted November 28, 2012 Members Share Posted November 28, 2012 The election is over. Not many cared to hear about Benghazi then, and even less care to discuss it now. A few Republicans are doing what they can to keep the story relevant mostly on a station that caters to pubs.. The rest of the nation are more interested in the dress Michelle is wearing for the Holiday special. OTOH, during the war in Iraq Afgh, there were a several news stations and newspapers keeping count of the dead and injured daily. They also had many Dem leaders in Congress and Senate beating the "liar" drum consistently. Kucinich was the biggest of all adding the war topics, calling out Bush, and the admin during his time to speak in session. He made it a point to do so on as many occasions and interviews. His reason was simple. Keep the relevancy ongoing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Caulk Rocket Posted November 28, 2012 Members Share Posted November 28, 2012 Why would anyone suddenly care about a CIA secret prison annex? The CIA are cunts, trying to manipulate foreign governments against the will of the citizens. They signed up for a dirty job that carries signifigant risk. No sympathy here.

There even seems to be a bit of disappointment in some that many more innocents didn't die so that it'd make Obama look worse. I definitely know some DB's who are like that.

Members marshallnoise Posted November 28, 2012 Members Share Posted November 28, 2012 Wtf are you going on about? "Anti-colonialism is the idea that the rich countries got rich by looting the poor countries, and that within the rich countries, plutocratic and corporate elites continue to exploit ordinary citizens." Technically, America was "Anti-colonialist." But not in the same sense as Barack Obama Sr. & Jr. http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2010/10/07/AR2010100705485.html I don't expect you to like it, or read it for that matter, but it is an interesting take on a man with NO history at all.

I just think Graham's just doing what the other side did during the last admin. IT IS the focus of both parties to make the other party in charge look bad and capitalize on any mishaps made in the opposing administrations. Dems went after everybody, not just the President. They hounded C Rice, Cheney, Bush, Rumsfeld, you name it. It WAS daily news. If any {censored} ups happened it aired and made front page guaranteed. We are just as seeing more of the same. Graham just has to be louder because his side is still licking their wounds trying to figure out how to reach other demographics instead of going back to basic standards of conservatism with some social modifications. FWIW all parties have had to make many social modifications since the birth of our nation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
