Don't you ever get tired of posting distorted facts?

The DEM controlled Senate voted in favor of the actions. In fact the DEM Senate Majority Leader co-sponsored the bill.

If your beloved dems are so innocent explain the above.

This is just a short list and there`s a good chance that Bush til this day still doesn`t know these things happened.Why no outrage from the righties then?
Because it is over your head and mentality.

Being you are so indigent about these events, I'm SURE you can post the details showing how each of these events were covered up. Post for us lies the Admin told.

You just don't get it.

Why didn't they notify Obama? Were people at an American embassy being shot at not important enough to even bother him? Pathetic.

Those aren`t facts. There was never a vote to invade Iraq.One man and one man alone was responsible for that fiasco.

Because we were in a crisis, and unlike now, the D's bit their tongues and backed their president. They were acting like Americans vs. petty party back biting.

Some of you seem to think that everyone in this country is STUPID and they don't remember events from 10 years ago. What makes it even worse is that the administration lied about the WMDs to get that support. And you wonder why people, even middle of the road conservatives, are starting to hate the R party? This has been building for DECADES. It's turning into a "if they talk, they're telling a lie" scenario.

Sorry, I won't engage with you any more. You are so blinded by hatred you twist and turn every phrase to suite your hatred, just like this,

Those aren't facts. There was never a vote to invade Iraq.One man and one man alone was responsible for that fiasco.

If you look at the post with the videos of the hearings and want to have an adult discussion, I will engage.

If you continue with your previous type of posting, you can talk with yourself.

It is hard to imagine that this does not raise the hackles of all Americans. The President of the United States was "unavailable" (according to Leon Panetta) during an emergency situation, which at the time we had no idea of the extent to which the situation might escalate further.

It is unconscionable that the Commander-in-Chief gave no orders to send in help, even though we had military equipment and personnel within striking distance, and did not make himself available to give such orders. Our Commander-in-Chief was AWOL in a national emergency.

This does not bother you?

Yet, on September 11, 2001, some strongly criticized President George W. Bush for his (alleged) lack of response to the terrorist attacks, and to this day, use that to speculate that it was "an inside job," and have used it as an excuse for all manner of vitriol and hatred for the President and his administration, and still do today.

It is shameful and disconcerting that our President put politics ahead of national security (at a bare minimum, the security of our consulate, and those American lives), and fashioned so lame an excuse, and further, sent other administration officials out to promote what he knew was a lie, in a propaganda campaign designed to shield him from culpability for the lack of security, before the election.

I find myself in utter disbelief that you (and those on the left) do not find this abhorrent, and worthy of the strongest condemnation, clearly rising well beyond the level of an impeachable offense.
And I'll bet you were just screaming, SCREAMING for the impeachment of Bush when this happened the first time, second time, third time....under his watch.
