I'm surprised no one brought up the Benghazi e-mail kerfuffle from yesterday/today.

Re: 2nd Term Part VIII - The Thin Red Line
Back in the 90's (I think) we used to have an expression that something was "played out". Ben Gazi is "played out" in the public mind, hence the no coverage. Perhaps CNN would have done something in their never ending quest to not be labeled as being biased, but they're too busy with Breaking News stories about the missing plane.Originally posted by dxmnkd316 View PostI'm surprised no one brought up the Benghazi e-mail kerfuffle from yesterday/today.

Re: 2nd Term Part VIII - The Thin Red Line
The only way Jeb Bush makes it through the primaries is if the crazies (Cruz, Paul, etc) all cancel each other out, and he pulls a Romney: the last guy standing due to his money advantage that nobody is happy about. That will leave him to flip one state from Mittens total in 2012: Florida. Other than that he has little ability to put VA, OH, PA, CO, NH, IA, NV or any of the other mishmash of swing states back into play, while he gets peppered constantly over every stupid decision his brother made.

Other than the fact that his second term comprised the vast majority of my undergrad years...not really.Originally posted by Rover View Post
W's first term execution was OK - good enough to get him re-elected versus the weakest Dem candidate since Dukakis. His second term follow-through was a disaster, and why the Republicans lost badly in '08.Comment

Re: 2nd Term Part VIII - The Thin Red Line
His first term is a big reason why his second term was a disaster. I thought in 2004 it was obvious...but then again, I always thought Iraq was a very bad idea.Originally posted by FadeToBlack&Gold View PostGo Gophers!Comment

Re: 2nd Term Part VIII - The Thin Red Line
I still don't get it. Even if the emails are true, so what? Rice when she was on the shows never said anything in the definitive and always said "we don't know anything for sure" over and over and over again. Why the GOP has such a hard on for Rice's or anyone else's speculation is beyond me.Originally posted by dxmnkd316 View PostI'm surprised no one brought up the Benghazi e-mail kerfuffle from yesterday/today.**NOTE: The misleading post above was brought to you by Reynold's Wrap and American Steeples, makers of Crosses.

No idea. What I took from it was, "Breaking news: White House has a press release that attempts to paint themselves in a 'non-negative' way. More to follow..."Originally posted by ScoobyDoo View Post

Re: 2nd Term Part VIII - The Thin Red Line
Same here. If we're going to prosecute people for going on talk shows and saying something that turned out to not be correct, wouldn't 99% of DC pundits and hosts be in prison right now?Originally posted by ScoobyDoo View Post
Basically this is all a "I'm auditioning for my own gig on Fox News Cable". Hilariously Issa tried once again to play the "military was told to stand down" comment and then got humiliated by a chairman of the Armed Forces Committee from his own party who went public dissing that long disproven conspiracy.

Guess that robust jobs report scared Republicans more than we thought! Now they're going for a nonsensical special committee. Is Ken Starr busy these days?

Re: 2nd Term Part VIII - The Thin Red Line
You make an excellent point, except for one tiny detail. The claim that "we don't know anything for sure" has been shown comprehensively and indisputably to be a LIE! Richard M. Obama and all the little Obamas knew almost immediately that the attack was an AQ function. Yet they lied, distorted and dissembled for weeks about its true nature. I mean, the guy had an election to win. Presumably he would have drawn the line at sending burglars to Romney headquarters, but we'll never know.Originally posted by ScoobyDoo View Post
The fact is you know very well what the significance of this event was: it showed that jumped up community organizer put his re-election ahead of the lives of four Americans who died for their country. Deaths in no small measure attributable to his disgraceful lack of leadership. As a bonus, it gave him an opportunity to do a little groveling to Islamists on spec.Last edited by Old Pio; 05-03-2014, 02:34 AM.2011 Poser of the Year & Pulitzer Prize winning machine gunner.Comment
