What is funny is the republicans can never let this go, as their base full of howling idiots simply won't let them. If you show a bit of intelligence and compromise, you will get primaried and replaced. Millions will continue to be wasted, up until the 97th Bengahzi committee finds that Obama's gravesite finally guilty.

You know what's really funny? Proggies only concern themselves with money spent by government when it isn't for one of their own harebrained ideas! I've got a pain in my side from laughing so hard about it. I get laughing so hard that I can hardly sign the check I write to the IRS every spring!
 
In order create a mass psychosis you need a hypnotic device to attune the minds of the crazies so that, like Pavlov's dogs, you can get them to salivate and bark on cue. Words like Bengazi do nicely. You don't want to use German words because they make you sound like a Nazi, and stuff like ugiboobi is also out for racial reasons. Something sounding Islamic is perfect. All you need to do is attach all the moral outrage of the CBD to a single work and presto change you have your psychotic trigger. All you have to do then is yell Bengazi Bengazi Bengazi in a crowded country and the stampeding madness will burn it down much better that real flames. It must be fun to be a psychopath but you would think the Bengazi strings that run up ones ass would tickle.

Quoted for truth.

Also, ACA/Obamacare - Ted Cruz tried to vilify net neutrality, by trying to make it synonymous with ACA.

Big Government - did a government employee suggest placing a piece of fruit into your s'more,.. OH NOES, it's teh Big Gubnaments!

An ass tickling would be the least of their problems frankly, because all this buffoonery is just making the Right look REALLY REALLY wrong and down right stupid.

There is a price to be paid for denial of reality. The CBD leads to only one madman left standing, the one true representative of the one true psychosis. And then the last cannibal dies of hunger. The T party will devour more moderate Republicans and then fracture and fracture again as it consumes itself.

Like how Lindsey Graham called this very investigation 'full of crap' - this man has eaten his own on this issue.

Yeh, I was chuckling out loud while watching him lambast his fellow Repubs for the lousy job they did on the latest edition of their Benghazi rabble-rousing-red-meat-tossing "investigation" that didn't turn out the way 'ol Lindsey wanted it to: Roasted Head of Hillary on a pike with a side order of Obama pyre 'de flambe in front of the Alamo.

I can't wait for the next edition, which should start as soon as some Repub lackey gets the order from someone higher up in the RNC Propaganda Ministry who feels the need to bash Hillary over the head with it.......again.

What tickles me is that your denial is more affirmative of my truth than his support. You are like a weathervane that can always be counted on to point in the direction the wind is blowing instead of coming from.

No, I just point at the hot air and it is almost always coming from you.

How about defending this "hot air".... name the last Republican presidential admin. that actually shrank the size of the civilian gov't payroll or the amount of federal gov't spending.

I'll wait while you search, and yes, you can go back to Eisenhower. That won't be back far enough, tho.

You want to show me where he is mentioning the size of government or payroll? It is beyond his one dimensional Conservative Braindead thought pattern.
 
Well, seeing as if Hillary hasn't had any kind of fresh controversy that the Repubs can crap on, and most of what's been thrown at her has already been whipped down to the bone, I'm wondering what the Repubs will come up with once the heat really gets turned up.

Or is it that they've found a way to freshen up the stink without sounding like a looping robocall? I wouldn't put it past them as desperation has a quality all of its own.

Given Clinton and State reluctance to turn over documents, it allows the situation to fester.

As long as Clinton continues to "seem" to act shady, people will dig.

Yeah, except it's not showing up in any meaningful way in the polls. People will chose HRC because the Repub alternative still looks too batshit crazy ATM.

On top of that, the entire email "Don't worry we sorted through them and gave you all the ones we thought were okay" attitude, printing them out just to be a-holes, offsite server in the first place, etc etc....it SO opens her (or anyone doing something similar) to not just digging, but any sort of wild speculation.

Maybe she had some unflattering things said, or sketchy policy discussions at an early stage while they were being worked out, whatever, and didn't want those to be seen. By doing this whole thing, it leaves it open to "SHE HID THE SECRET BENGHAZI EMAIL THAT ALSO CONFIRM BILL IS ONE OF THE LIZARD PEOPLE" and to the right people, there you go. Truth.

Tens of thousands pages of documents have been turned over. At this point Congress has spent considerably more time investigating the Benghazi attack where 4 Americans died than it did the 9/11 attacks where ~3,000 Americans died.

It is transparently obvious that Republicans are trying to use these investigations to attack their political enemies, but at this point it's become embarrassing for them. They look insane.

They look just like the other party.

Two parts to each of them: pandering to the extremist base (ie, Benghazi investigations, hollering about ObamaNet, etc) and then boning the country as a whole while doing their corporate masters bidding (when both parties are cooperating to try and pass various trade agreements, you know it's bad).

Honestly I would probably vote for someone off ATOT to run the country before any of these morons.

Meh. I fell for the "both parties are the same" thing back in 2000 when I voted for Nader but I think an objective look at the situation makes it pretty impossible to claim that.

For example, do you think the US would have invaded Iraq if Al Gore was president? I find that very unlikely. Do you think the ACA (or something similar) would have been passed if John McCain were president? I find that very unlikely too.
