Democrats Walk Out On Families' Testiomny of Slain Benghazi Heroes

Those are a list of terrorist attacks on state department targets. None of those are comparable to Benghazi so far as I can tell. Sorry, but they just are not. A suicide bombing is not comparable to people fighting off attackers and pleading for help.

As for the original story. I hope there is another explanation for this like they all had somewhere else important to be. Regardless of the politics, I would have sat there as long as any of them wanted to talk. It is about basic human decency and respect for the speakers and their loss, regardless of why who was doing what for whichever reason. There is nothing any more political about this hearing than Obama using their coffins as a photo-op when they came back to Dover.

 

This theme is a manufactured distraction to divert the bobble heads away from the fact that Mullen and Pickering totally punked Issa, and that the circus is effectively over.

I have no doubt that these themes will continue to reverburate throughout the right wing echo chamber until 2016, just as the fake stories about Vince Foster did during the 1990's.

When confronted with reality, these people have to cling to a trumped up cause celeb. It doesnt' have to be true. It just has to feed their prejudices.

 

Democrats Walk Out On Families' Testiomny of Slain Benghazi Heroes


You know that this bull(*)(*)(*)(*) thread has been completely debunked, right?

Right?

 

they probably know, but they're not going to admit it

 

Well, I'm going to go ahead and be helpful, since I love to make wingnuts like Darrell Issa and the people who lap up his bull(*)(*)(*)(*) look like the complete fools that they are.

Just how cheap is this story? Well: There are 24 Republicans and 17 Democrats on the committee. Democrats sit on the left, from the witness's perspective; Republicans sit on the right. Here's a screenshot from the moment Gowdy started speaking to Woods and Smith.




There don't seem to be 24 Republicans sitting down for this; there seem to be six of 'em. So does Rep. Patrick McHenry not care about Benghazi victims? Does Rep. Thomas Massie not care about Benghazi victims? Does Rep. Doc Hastings not care about Benghazi victims? No, I'm sure they do, and they'll vote for more investigations if they can, and whether or not they're around for one hearing may not tell us much.​

I have won yet another thread. Yay me!

 

Issa's one-sided pic is just more proof that all he's doing is seeking political points.

The man is a scumbag of the highest caliber and just wasting taxpayers' money to toss red meat at his incessant base.

 

Nobody seated in a leather chair is an aide. Post a picture, and point to someone you THINK is an aide, an d I will tell you who they are.

 

For the third (*)(*)(*)(*)ing time, that photo does not show the whole panel, and you cannot count if that sums six in your head. Stop plagiarizing (*)(*)(*)(*)ty leftist websites.

 

I never said the deaths of Americans was acceptable. But in general, the partisan conservatives are trying to blow this up far more than similar instances that took place under Bush. All this talk about the deaths of Americans from the far Right is nothing more than political grandstanding.

 

Who dey think gonna beat dem Benghazi?

Yup. Where you stand depends upon where you sit. It's like a warning, because anyone can go through this thing, debate whether or not Democrats walked out of the hearing, but there's a deeper question why. You don't just make something like this up to play a game of political football. These are people's families, so it's likely that even if Republicans are exaggerating about what happened at the hearings, it's still sending a message to the Democrats something like, "you better take a seat because it's some bad news, will be a lot of grief." I think Obama's about to learn the hard way just how Washington works like a casino, the House always wins.

Michelle.

 

It's a manufactured talking point. It's fake.

All the wingnuts here know it is too. That's why they're being so loud and strident. They've been punked by their own sources yet again.

 

Another right wing lie...........the noise machine really thinks you are stupid.

 

this story was started by one photo or the Democratic side. The Republicans didn't have a quorum either. Issa and the right wing noise machine think you are stupid. Will you make them right?

 

OK, I get it, you can't count and you don't understand that the count doesn't matter.

 

It's what happens when cult members have their beliefs exposed as false.
Rather than say "Gosh, I was lied to" like a non-cult member would if their belief was exposed as false.
A cult member redoubles belief, and concocts a twisted explanation of why it's not really a lie, why it's really true.
So "Look at all those Democrats who skipped this important testimony from the families of the slain", which carries the implication that every Republican was there, showing a deep respect for the sacrifice of the noble heroes, when that gets exposed as a lie, because most of the Republicans weren't there either, it suddenly is all about the count and the percentage of those in attendance, and the relative numbers, the fact that they got lied to again, and that most of what they believe is based on lies, is buried in nonsense about counting people seated against the wall in folding chairs as congressmen to vary the percentage in attendance numbers.

 

Please demonstrate how a suicide bombing is anything at all like a prolonged eight hour attack. Add into the mix the fact that the White House sent no one to the aid of the people under fire and then lied to the American public about the source of the attack and their reaction to it and you really have your work cut out for you.

I'll eagerly be awaiting your reply and explanation. I do so love a good story.

 

Why don't you post a picture, rather than keep making vague unspecific references?

 

That's what I thought. So since Obama does everything same as Bush did (except Michelle) it means that the problem is not in his actions. If it is not his actions then it must be his looks. And this is a question that even conservative can figure out. How is Obama visually different from Bush?

 

Six Republicans. I'm so sorry you cannot count.

And I'm not plagiarizing anything. I included the link prominently.

 

14 seats visible in this shot. Do you think there are perhaps at least 26 chairs?

Here are 7 republicans.

You can add 2 more from your quoted image, Issa and the guy next to him... and... you will notice that dark haired gentleman next to jacket-less in your image... is not in any of mine. It would appear he went to the restroom or, voted on something at that time, as he showed up after the recess... So that is 10. Your source is simply wrong.

Embarrassingly, you WERE correct about me possibly counting aides behind the chairs, though I am pretty sure that was DesJarlais 4th from Issa in your quoted image.

Here is the republican presence for the first half of the days hearings.



We gained members for the victims testimony... however I must concede that this was a poor showing on the republican side as well.

 

Thank you for conceding that you have no point at all, and that the OP is a lie of omission, dishonestly posted to try to gin up false outrage.

 

When I make actual concessions, you don't have to gin them up. I admitted my error(s). I don't require your help doing so. Are you ready to accept your errors? Were there more than 6 republicans?

 

Why don't you go and listen to or read a transcript of their testimony and then you will know.

Is that about a good as you have on this issue? Are you in the "what difference does it make" how those four Americans came to their death camp?

Tell me who was responsible and what have been the consequences?

 

What exactly is the politicizing that you are accusing? Wanting to know who was responsible and holding them accountable is politicizing? Or is coverup and withholding witnesses and diversion and deflection and claiming the otherside is just on a witchhunt and other invective the politicizing?

Hillary said she is responsible. Why hasn't she been held accountable and how should she? Should she be elected President after her handling of this matter and her responses to the aftermarth? Those are salient questions towards one who wants to the CnC and in TOTAL charge.

 

They can't and they refuse to answer such a question.

The 3 AM Call that Hillary eluded to in her commercial rang to her and Barack Obama... and they slammed the phone down on our heroes and went back to sleep leaving them to be murdered.
