    Hell the governments you have elected have lied to us too. We lived through them, and so will you.

    Well at least we know there is clarity in the position of the left ;it's OK to get lied to by the most transparent administration in history.
    Btw Ambassador Rice is a side-show too... the Adm is secretly thrilled every time they can deflect the issue. Susan Rice again proved herself to be the loyal foot soldier today ;and the President will be more than happy to let her be the focus ;just like the distraction of a couple weeks over Petraueus . I'm not particularly concerned with Rice's lies. I'm more concerned with what information the President had about the attack ;and the policies being pursued in Benghazi.

    I love how you eventually find a way to justify lies and corruption.

    I love the way a prolife congressman from Tennesee rides the tea party wagon to congress and wants one of his 5 mistresses to have an abortion.

    People are flawed... some more than others.

    Now that Jesse Jackson Jr. has stepped aside, his predecessor wants the seat back. Mel Reynolds, convicted of campaign fraud and having sex with an underaged campaign volunteer, announced his bid to get his old seat back.

    I bet he wins. Dems love their perverts.

    By destroying Rice and having Kerry at State the repubs hope to get Brown back in the senate. No wonder those former Brown supporters of his losing campaign are raising hell about a potential Secretary of State nominee.

    Post election politics since they want Kerry to be the Secretary of State.

    G.O.P. Unites Around John Kerry for Secretary of State - NYTimes.com

    Quote:

    The Kerry boomlet adds another level of intrigue to the uproar surrounding Ms. Rice and has real implications for the balance of power on Capitol Hill. If Mr. Kerry were nominated and confirmed, it could open the door to a return via special election of Senator Scott Brown of Massachusetts, who was defeated this month by Elizabeth Warren. A Brown victory — which is far from certain — could cut the Democratic margin by one and restore to office a man who was popular with his Republican colleagues.
    False outrage fits you guys like a glove.

    ? Doesn't make any sense. If Kerry becomes SEc State then Duvall Patrick gets to pick his replacement until a special election... some 150 days after Kerry resigns from the Senate .

    I no longer want stone face Kerry there than Rice. Rice was Kerry's foreign policy advisor during the 2004 campaign .Both their take on foreign policy sucks .

    YOU may feel that way, but obviously repubs have a different idea about Kerry, and Rice, and Scott Brown.

    Or political self interest. The prospect of winning an election turns you guys on like nothing else except extracting a few more bucks from those you hate like those lazy 47%.

    Hmmm Romey got 47% of the popular vote.

    By the way, as I've already noted her status as Benghazi patsy Isn't the only concern about Rice. Environmentalists aren't too happy about her financial ties to the Keystone Pipeline and now this:

    Rice holds stakes in firms that have done business in Iran


    Surely her current holdings are a little more of a concern than Romney's stakes that had been in a blind trust for a decade that the media raised hell about.

    Quote:

    “This news adds to the list of questions about Susan Rice — not only her public statements, but now there are broader concerns about her past record.” Democratic staffers also said on condition of anonymity for the same reason that the investments would prompt questions of her if she is nominated.
    Face it, Rice is a problem. She should not be the face of our foreign policy.

    So, a vet who LIED about his medals in Vietnam would be a better face??

    You're making the mistake tom corrected Tal about. I never said I wanted him, though he would sail through confirmation. Probably departing from his yacht in Rhode Island.

    Never mind the fact the Tour in Vietnam was 1 full year... how did Kerry get out of there in only 4 months...

    When I say YOU guys I mean the right as a collective, not you as individuals, which is hard to separate sometimes. YOU guys take things so personally.

    Just to clarify.
