Come on, Big Girl and NewTobie- what do you think?

[westend1]

Ask me.  The guy is an idiot

[stevenash]

Ok- Since you have offered your opinion, can you highlight a couple of statements that he made that render him foolish?

[westend1]

"that's why I wrote the book"            You need more?

[stevenash]

Is the suggestion that, since he wrote a book, he told a bunch of lies in order to make money?

 

Hillary also wrote a "book"

 

I honestly want your perspective on why this individual should not be believed.  Are there glaring and obvious lies in the article?

[smitty]

"that's why I wrote the book"            You need more?

??   :huh:

[westend1]

Plenty of right wing nuts will buy it if it is juicy enough

[LumRaiderFan]

Plenty of left wing nuts will simply dismiss it because it dares to be critical of obama.

[baddog]

Funny how Obama can NEVER stand on his own merits. Everything is comparable to previous administrations. Big girl cares about Beirut but cares nothing about Benghazi. I care about both. With two degrees in burger flipping, one wonders why she can't think past her nose and say Obama should have responded to Benghazi.

[westend1]

So Baddog.  Were the deaths in Benghazi the fault of Obama or someone else?   Simple question. 

[stevenash]

Westend,  I dont think the deaths in Benghazi were the fault of Obama.  Now it's my turn to pose a "simple question" for which a simple, non evasive answer would be appreciated.  Do you believe the video theory was promoted for political purposes?

[westend1]

Not really sure.  and, I don't care.  I will say that the only witness that we have so far seems to be saying that it played a role.

[stevenash]

You don't care?  You don't care if your government lied to you about how the events played out?  Could you please identify for me the" one single witness we have" and tell me how credible you believe that witness is?  I have a sneaking hunch that you would "care" if Mr. Romney was the current occupant of the office.

[westend1]

Let me say it again.  I dont care.   I don't care if Obama tries to use the deaths to political advantage,     I  care that we figure out why it happened and how we prevent it from happening again.    Right wing losers don't see it that way.

[LumRaiderFan]

Everyone's a loser with this administration... left and right.

[westend1]

Exhibit a

[LumRaiderFan]

I guess I could put on blinders and a cheerleader outfit like yourself...would sure be less taxing on the brain.

[baddog]

So Baddog. Were the deaths in Benghazi the fault of Obama or someone else? Simple question.

Simple answer.....someone else. There were cries for help that were not answered. May not have prevented it, unfortunately, but it could have been avenged.

Being honest, I'm really not sure what happened in Beruit. It was so out of character for Reagan.

Obama's non-response and Clinton's "what difference does it make" remark make me furious. I truly wonder how even the Obama supporters are not outraged by this.

[westend1]

Out of character for Reagan?    Are you drinking?

[baddog]

Just a little Patron. Jk

That's all you took from my post?

[westend1]

That's all I got.  But then, did have a weller and water while mowing.    In all honesty, I just don't get the Benghazi hysteria.   We got hit.   It has happened before and it will happen again.

Oh you get it alright!!  Yep we go hit and yep we will get hit again.  That said, the narrative presented and the response of the current admin when it does happen matters greatly!!   

[stevenash]

Westend- You don't care if they use it to political advantage?  Then the IRS scandal is acceptable as well?  Lying is ok if some other things are handled properly?  Yeah, right.  Big Brother only wants to help us.  Wasn't/isn't Mr. Obama all about fairness, equity, and "if you work hard and play by the rules, everyone has a fair shot?  So the rules apply to everyone else except the guy making the rules?  Interesting.  Particularly for one who vigorously criticizes blogs that he thinks are not truthful. Enjoy your fantasy.

Wasn't it Reagan who bombed Ghadaffi (sp.) palaces and killed his son? See, I like that. Cheers. It's Patron shot time.
