One doesnt need to know where the theater is that Abraham Lincoln was shot in, to know he's dead..
True that... but;
It would be nice if folks knew their scandals,
The entire Grant administration had so many scandals that it would appear that nothing else happened during his administration. One was the complicity of the administration in aiding an abetting Jay Gould and James Fisk's attempt to corner the gold market that led to the Gold Panic of 1869,
And aside from Watergate, the dozy of all dozies, Reagan's Iran Contra. Selling arms to Iran in violation of a two executive orders one that Reagan wrote himself and international obligations the proceeds of which were then used to violate the Boland Amendment, which explicitly forbade the arming of Nicaragua's Contras.
Had they polled democrats, the results would have been worse. Do you recall all of the street interviews with Obama supporters? I don't think many of them even knew thier own names, let alone what state they lived in.
So would the scandal have been more acceptable to you if it was committed in a different location? How many knew what and where "Watergate" was until the scandal unfolded and achieved more widespread coverage? Who knew where the Gulf of Tonkin (sp) was located?
Typical lib- diversionary logic. When the facts of the situation are uncomfortable and reveal that libs are dead wrong- they change the topic.
And I remember all the hillbilly southern losers who couldn't talk let alone know where they even lived themselves carrying on about that muslim socialist Obama. Benghazi is dead in the water, move on to something else.
Once I was in the U-district library in Seattle. A pretty little girl, probably a UW student, turned to me and asked which of the oceans was close to Seattle. She said it with a little smile as if to say "I know it's lame that I don't know."
Hey, this is what we get with our wonderful public education system. Run lock stock and barrel by liberals, btw. Don't about 95 percent of NEA donations go to Democrats?
"41 percent of Republicans say they consider this to be the "biggest political scandal in American history" compared to only 43 percent who disagree.
Of the 41 percent of Republicans who consider Benghazi to be the worst political scandal in American history, 39 percent are unaware that Benghazi is located in Libya. 10 percent said it's in Egypt, 9 percent in Iran, 6 percent in Cuba, 5 percent in Syria, 4 percent in Iraq, and 1 percent each in North Korea and Liberia, with 4 percent unwilling to venture a guess."
