They realized that with the 2016 election on the horizon and the possibility of Hillary running they can only spend an allotted amount of time on ecah one to see if they will stick. They are fomenting a new batch of phony scandals as we speak.

Yep, they are eternally searching for their elusive Holy Grail...the left wing version of Watergate.

Personally I am so turned off to the entire Presidential administration and Congress I don't even listen anymore. Dem or GOP, totally wrapped up in themselves, do what THEY want, not the will of the American people. I feel like my hands are tied, so why bother? Guess it's like a dictatorship...

Does your mom know you're using that sort of language? Condom indeed. I'm going to tell her. If she's a proper right wing extremist like you, she'll use corrective measures to get you back into proper behavior.

It's the same tactic used against Clinton. An endless series of claims of “scandal”, creating the sense of a tainted administration even though all the alleged scandals would turn out to be either trivial or nonexistent. Remember, after all those years of front-page headlines and $70 million in public funds, the GOP House dropped the Whitewater investigation the day Clinton retired.
War Crimes Panel Finds Croat Troops 'Cleansed' the Serbs - New York Times

Just because liberals find stories like that a non-starter while simultaneously trying to bring Reagan to the guillotine over arms deals with Iran does not mean they actually aren't egregious.

Quote:
Iranian arms shipments to Bosnia: The Clinton Administration concealed its active cooperation with the Iranians for arms shipments to the Muslim fundamentalist regime of Alija Izetbegovic in Bosnia in violation of the United Nations arms embargo on the former Yugoslavia. [For details on the Clinton Administration's active connivance with the Iranians, see RPC's "Clinton-Approved Iranian Arms Transfers Help Turn Bosnia into Militant Islamic Base," 1/16/97.] This track record undermines the Clinton Administration's insistence that Russia, as a permanent member of the U.N. Security Council, is obligated to observe the same embargo with respect to Serbia [as stated by State Department spokesman James Rubin, daily briefing, March 24, 1999].

Yeah, we know how deep the liberal double-standard runs...

How high does the dead American body count need to be before the Lame Stream Media begins to question what's going on?

Comparisons to Waterloo were probably bandied about as well. But when similar incidents occurred during the Bush failure years, not a peep. Why is this? I think it's not because such attacks are particularly scandalous, but because losing turns Republicans into whining crybabies. It was thus during the Clinton administration as well.

But if you feel I'm in error, and that there's another reason the right didn't regard similar incidents during the Bush failure years as being not worthy of mention, never mind being worse than Watergate, I'd like to hear it.
You'd think liberals would be more curious about the how's and why's of a secret C.I.A. annex in a country that Obama just funneled arms to for a "grass roots" revolution and where many of the arms where used to kill an U.S. ambassador, the first since 1979.

Yeah, nothing to see there. Unless it's a republican in power, of course.

Great, that'll make it all go away and we'll all feel better.
