But Pelosi already got the people's attention off impeachment by not submitting it to the Senate.

What you are saying is so off the wall, I'm not even sure exactly what you are trying to say. Are you suggesting that Hitler was attacked and his war was of retaliation or that what Iran is doing is similar to what Hitler was doing in the lead up to WW2?

Either would be completely off base, but I'm curious which one you were going for.

You could say the same for Benghazi.

If Obama/Hillary had not illegally destroyed Libya, Benghazi would never be attacked.

Of course he hasn’t been bad, you could argue he’s been great. Now, a war with Iran could change that quickly. Why don’t we listen to Iraq and get the hell out? Stop sending more troops to the region

Obama like LBJ before him chose not to send assistance. Or do you mean when he sent an FBI team to look through the ashes? People died because their pleas for help were answered? Odd.
you mean Obama wouldn't even send blankets? That was his signature move when faced with conflict.

Bobby, it happens to be a war crime to intentionally bomb historic sites.

2) So you admit that Obama and Hillary did not do their jobs when a) they ignored the Ambassador's 300 emails pleading for additional security, and then, b) did not send help when the embassy was under attack and American lives at stake (and eventually taken)?
#1 it wasn't an embassy, learn your history before speaking.
#2 By the time word got out, it was way too late to respond, they were already dead.
#3 Republicans in Congress investigated it 8 times and found the administration did nothing wrong and responded properly.

No but Obama did manage to drop it from a high of 9.7% down to 4.5% with no thanks to the obstructionist, traitorous Republicans. Trump has only managed to drop it less than 1% from there. Now tell me who did the better job? Hint: It wasn't Trump.
