Benghazi "Scandal"

It might be because i'm really tired, but holy [poo] MD you just made my day with that and I don't understand why

I think in the final analysis, the original question of cover up is the least of our worries. Politics has derailed this line of thought to the point that the real problem is never going to get looked at, let alone resolved so that it does not occur again. The problem is that we left our ambassador woefully understaffed and under-secured to the point that any attack would cause casualties. That is unnacceptable. Instead of thinking logically, tactically, and with common sense, we have politicians, people appointed by politicians, and morons who never stepped into Libya, making decisions that cost us an ambassador and three men assigned to keep him safe. I don't give a flying [m'kay] what side of the aisle you claim is "yours", four people had the ultimate bad day.

Look folks, you can go back and forth all day about which side is "better" and which side screwed the pooch. One thing remains. Terrorism is still here, no er how much our President and crew want you to believe they are on the way out like the dodo bird. It is still killing, destroying, shooting little school kids, blowing up busses, . . . etc. Hiding our heads in the sand of politics is not going to get the job done.

Guess everyone skipped my post about politics
Obama blaims Bush, if rodney gets elected he'll blaim Obama.

Just in case

All i can say is, different continents same bull-[poo].
It doesn't Mather who's voted at this point, one person makes a debt, the next will have to pay it.
The government is just pumping money into dying project, or stupid ideas, they created a gigantic debt during the good times, and now in this crisis they want the people to pay for their mistakes.

It's fairly pointless at this stage, even if Obama loses, i can bet the next person won't be any better, he'll just make up some dumb excuses about why he can't get things done.
And he'll keep making up excuses for the next 4 years, and after that he'll start making new promises in the hope the people give him another 4 years to actually do them.

How many politicians have said they will make the pay for woman's equal to men? and how many countries have this?
All BS just to get up the big chair and start hoarding money in.

First, could we not quote entire pages filled with images and nested quotes?

About Romney we say he doesn't give specifics. Ask yourself this question: What specifics has Obama given about his second term agenda?

This may come to mind:
1)Hire more teachers
2)Raise taxes
3)Invest in the middle east= give money to people that want to kill us.

That's daring, that's going to create jobs

Romney's agenda:
1)Reform the tax code
2)Become energy independent
3)Make foreign aide conditional on the basis they do not attack us and protect our embassies and consulates.

I know this is simplified but this post has to end somewhere. Ask the question has Obama given anymore specifics then Romney?

See, even amid the absurd connotations you posted up there, you still gave Obama a concrete plan (income increase from taxes, matching increased spending on education and foreign aid). Even you can't make Romney's plan sound plausible - you just say "reform" as though that's going to suddenly cause the entire plan to make sense.

Aside from that, as said previously, if they were exactly the same on economics I would vote for the party that isn't living in the 1800's on social issues.

EDIT: also, "hire more teachers" by definition creates jobs, in a much less sarcastic sense than you intended...

Crater I think you are missing the point whenever Obama is asked about his 2nd term agenda, the answers he gives are not solutions to our current economic situation. Hiring teachers in a literal sense creates jobs, my pint was improving education should be much lees of a priority than fixing the economy.

Hobo, in my opinion we are not recovering, my proof average income has been down by almost $3,000(inflation adjusted). My proof:

1967 60,813,000 $6,140 $42,056

So we may differ in opinion, but in the age of rising inflation income should at least hold steady, but certainly not decrease, plus the reason the unemployment rate is down is because the workforce is shrinking and less people are actively pursuing work. The data:
