More on a long list of treachery is Reagan arranging to have young innocent Americans, you know - pawns, held hostage in Iran until after his election. What a bunch of "super patriots" righties are.
Just part of the innate mentality...
I consider that whole thing to be TREASONOUS!

Exactly. What country will allow forces from another country to come into one of their major cities and get into a firefight?

SURE WOULDN'T BE ALLOWED HERE AT ALL.

I think the point is they should be discussed in the mainstream corporate media and with the same fervor as Benghazi for all to see - not just on this forum.

I'd fear Republicans who have such clear 20/20 hindsight and willingness to vilify people for problems they see in the past yet made NO mention of previously while being blind to the present and the future.

BTW, kinda funny we never heard any peeps from the right about a Marine barracks in Beirut and its own lack of security and subsequent carnage, eh? I don't recall anyone trying to place the blame on the POTUS and/or SoS then.

One wonders what they would be saying if POTUS on 9-11 was a democrat.

I haven't read this entire thread but I suspect they are afraid we'll find out that Obama was funneling weapons through Libya to Al Qaeda in Syria to de-stabilize the Syrian government. Once people from the embassy start talking the game is up. Obama couldn't care less but Hillary is worried because she went along.

LOL!

The silent majority barks after the wrong guy get placed in office.
Happened with Clinton, it happened with Bush and it happened with Obama.

It is just how Progressive politics works. Good cop, bad cop both against the People that wrote the rules.

Seriously? You're saying that they don't count because they weren't set up and carried out precisely and exactly in the manner that the attack happened in Benghazi? That's your argument?

Nothing was said about those attacks on the Sunday news shows as conservatives own all the media nowadays. You're absolutely correct, Rush Limbaugh never said a word about all those deaths. Come to think of it, Sean Hannity was quiet as well. Darrell Issa would never dream of putting Bush or anyone in his cabinet in the hot seat. These deaths don't count, they happened when a republican was in office?

What totally specious arguments you present. Those deaths count just as much. Period.

Of course they do, and the right wingers know it. They have zero concern about all the previous deaths - including those in Iraq. Their concern is not about four deaths in Benghazi, but Hilary in 2016 - nothing else.

What Are The Democrats Afraid Of?
Absolutely nothing.
Shame watching the Pubs self-destruct when there are so many pressing issues.
Never mind doubling down on Benghazi. You guys should go all-in.
I think this is a very productive approach.
It'll make winning the midterms that much easier.
