As soon as Hillary announces she's not running you will never hear about Benghazi again. That's where the republicans "caring" would end.

How many times will that one factoid put out by RT without context, then spun into a web of unsupporteed lies from that conclusion, be carried by so many?

Your name for Faux, 'gopropaganda' is so true. Remember how they lock step supported the narrative put out by Putin?

Beware their team for 2016:

truly funny President we've had in awhile. His sense of humor and timing and delivery are all first-rate. I'd have to agree. He does great deadpan, and I, too, like it when he breaks into a giggle at some of his one-liners. It's actually kinda cute!

(loosely paraphrased) "I try and read one letter from the American people, every even. Last night, I read one that was just heart-wrenching. It was from a guy, trapped in a part-time job, with no prospects for a future and a boss that shows him no respect ... I hate it when Eric Cantor writes me! Hey Eric ... use the phone."

been more lucrative than since 2008. Limbaugh et al. have made so many millions and have had so many people tune in to their shows that it might not be much of a stretch to wonder if they are closeted Democrats. Under Bush ll, they didn't have much to rail against (aside from women, gays, and minorities), but Obama basically gave them a treasure chest of material until 2017! Now they have a President from the opposite party to foam at the mouth over (and him having melanin in his skin has been a bonus).
