So after going on TV to trash Susan Rice McCain doesn't even show up to the classified HSC briefing on Benghazi today? http://www.politico.com/news/stories/1112/83879.html?hp=r1

(8,377 posts)There weren't any forces nearly close enough to effect a rescue. Are they asking Obama to violate the space-time continuum -- break the fabric of the universe in order to retroactively put a force in place to save the day?
These people are freaking nuts. And just for the record, did any of them ever hold a press conference asking why Bush didn't rescue everybody who was trapped in the WTC towers on 9-11? After Bush learned of the attack, did he issue any orders proclaiming that the law of gravity be suspended so that the towers would not fall down? Well, did he?

(2,514 posts)I would have thought, after President Obama pinned Willard's ears back in the second debate, that Benghazi would have been toxic..
it continues to amaze me how in penetrable the right winger bubble is to facts....

(67,697 posts)His father was, indeed, the admiral in charge fo the war for a while. When the Vietnames found that out, they offered him a way home if he would talk. He refused and spent all that time there as a result. On that particular score, he was a stand up guy.

(85,920 posts). . .it's frightening to consider, for them, just how much their agenda is based on made-up stuff that they used in the election. Here we are, thinking that they're smart enough to abandon the over-the-top accusations and scandal-mongering, but their losses have made them absolutely rabid. Is it that they can't let go of the lies because they'd have to admit what horrible frauds they are, or, have they come to believe their own manufactured bull?
I suspect McCain is safe until he decides to retire.
