    Hello again, Steve:

    If four dead is a scandal, what do you call 4,000 dead in a phony war? By the way, it's the war we LOST!!

    White House outrages Benghazi attack victim's mother as Obama continues to call the deadly assault a 'phony scandal'

    Like I said, that would be the Tal, the administration and Hillary "what difference does it make" Clinton who calling the deaths of Americans a "phony" scandal.

    Well, yes. Since I was referring to you misrepresenting the posters that you mentioned in the post I quoted.

    Um, Obama is the one that snatched defeat from the jaws of victory and my comment was about the very selective liberal outrage, not the deaths of Americans.

    More of them died on Obamas watch than on Bushes. And Obama still has almost 3.5 years to go on his second term.

    Yeah.. every year under Obama the numbers were WAY higher than under bush... and this year its well on its way with 5 months to go as well

    And we were on our way out of Iraq while Bush was still in Office.

    I like how you completely overlook the Iraq war stats. Pretty typical of the righty mentality."If it doesn't fit the narrative..."

    I know you are a bit slow... But that would be comparing apples to Oranges since we were on our way out before Bush left office... Unlike Afghanistan.

    So now there are revelations of large scale CIA activity in the middle east and this is a surprise to someone? What were a large number of CIA operatives doing in Benghazi? Why didn't they rescue the ambassador? This sounds like boots on the ground to me

    They HAD boots on the ground in the way of Rapid Reaction force at the Airport in Libya. (those were NOT CIA)... they were ordered to stand down.

    Yeah we all want to hear the real explanation for this... and they are stonewalling and obstructing to keep from doing it...

    Hello again,

    Look.. I want to know if my president is a coward and a liar... I want to know if he left his men on the battlefield. If he did, I want his a$$.

    But, what we've got here is a terrorist attack and four of our men died including the ambassador. Nobody could have saved them. Nobody is saying they could. Obama was slow to call it a terrorist attack. Big Deal. You have some problem with the talking points given to Susan Rice. Big Deal. If the station was a CIA black ops office, big deal.

    I'm waiting to hear what was covered up, and who should be hung for it. Yawwwwwwn...
