The petty behavior of the republicans to smear/remove Obama has become their signature. By their own admission, it was their mission to see Obama as a one term president and their behavior confirms it.

Now that there is something that is so very real, Benghazi, where seeking the truth is justified, it's easy to ignore the republicans quest to seek the truth and see it as part of their ongoing witch hunt. The republican cries and accusations cannot be taken serious based on their record since Obama took office, and this is one instance where they are within their rights to find answers to Benghazi. If this doesn't work for them, they will spend the remaining time that Obama is in office to find something, anything, just to be right at least once.

Signed: Neither a republican nor democrat am I.
During the election Obama was campaigning that Obama Bin Laden is dead and that Al-quada is on the run. Even saying al-quada was decimated. Benghazi was inconvenient for him and he tried blaming it on a video.

Liberals always acted as if Obama walked on water and it is sickening. The liberal media chose not to report on the cover up of the Benghazi attack during the election. Instead, all of the media outlets chose to cover up for Obama and deny it was a terrorist attack. Even as the evidence began to mount this was a terrorist attack, liberal talk show host Chris Matthews decided to make an example out of a kid on TV and tell him to read the papers it was all about a video.

Our founders believed a free media would balance out a corrupt government, but when the media is a part of the cover up, it makes one question if we still have free, fair, and open elections.

It also makes one question why they want this president in. Think about it with Obama always screaming for higher taxes, people still suffering and more and more people dependent on the government.

So, you are talking about a "totally objective" interim report from these 5 House members. Buck McKeon (R-CA), Ed Royce (R-CA), Bob Goodlatte (R-VA), Darrell Issa (R-CA), and Mike Rogers (R-MI)? OooooKaaaaay.

Think on this...

Presidents are "selected", not "elected".

KUHNER: Blowing a whistle on Benghazi - Washington Times
The ever-shrinking Republican minority just can't stomach the fact that Obama has become simply the greatest President in recent history and want to find anything they can to tarnish his legacy. It's not going to work. The American people are on Obama's side, especially people under 30. The more Republicans attempt stuff like this the worse they look.

This clearly shows that liberals support tyranny and not the laws that govern ALL MEN, regardless of class or position in the US. To do so is to accept a feudal system of men who are "above the law". It used to be, in the US, that no man was above the law. Watergate showed that to be true.

When you consider the actions at Benghazi to be "acceptable", it suggests that the rule of law is no longer relevant in the oval office. Do you really want that? What if a republican had done the same thing?

I think Nixon got what he deserved. Obama, however, has committed a far worse act and has gotten off scott free.
The funny thing is Nixon probably would've survived the scandal of Watergate itself. It was the coverup that knocked him off his throne.

Here is an example of how the liberal media again made up lies about Fox. Fox provided excellent continual coverage of Hurricane Sandy but the Huffington post made claims they ignored it. wow, unbelievable.

Fox News Focuses On Benghazi Attack While Largely Ignoring Hurricane Sandy

Can't debate the topic....so shoot the messenger

Obama Supporter Auto Response Protocolâ„¢

1. The source isn't valid
2. That's racist
3. But...but...but George W. Bush
4. Repeat 1,2, and/or 3 as needed then insult the opposition, declare victory, and move on


Y'all are just sooooo darn predictable.

Bury your head. Obama can do no wrong because he is "The One".
Just follow what Carney says.."misinformation" by the Repubs because they just don't like Obama.
