   I must concur, this cartoon is not bragging up the thinkings skills of the artist.

   Let me see if I understand the objections. An ambassador and three guards are killed at an embassy. Nobama goes to Las Vegas for a fund raiser like nothing happened. Let’s his mouth pieces do his spin on the event for him. Then everything is supposed to be hunky-doriee with everybody. That is everybody except the families that lost there loved ones. Oh and one more thing, they are still blaming Bush for all of there mis-steps.

   How quickly the right started ginning up a bunch of bull. The disrespect for those killed by turning their deaths into political fodder is simply despicable.

   Condoleezza was the screwup rice, and why doesn’t anyone notice that most of the staff were evacuated from Benghazi?

   
   Republicans should focus on what their constituency really cares about, and can follow the details of , like Lady Ga Ga gaining 35 pounds.

   Aaah cut the guy a break. It was right near an election and the peace prize president did not need the blood of 4 on his hands. No that would look bad. So who could blame him for blaming a YouTube Video and everyone knows that it was spontaneous, both there and Egypt on 9-11, These things just happen.
   And just because that CIA guys says he sent a memo stating it was terrorist, who can blame him for editing that out. I mean Obama had to go to Vegas the next morning and then there was the Letterman show where he had to have the story straight that it was not terrorist. If it was then Obama might have to have met with Israel. And Obama thinks the guy a liar so why should he meet with him…..

   It probably doesn’t matter to you, but I quit reading after this:
   "Steve, yo’re an idiot .. Sorry someone had to point that out

   Rethuglicans in congress."

   ET2008, if you expect people to take you seriously you need to present something to rationally convince someone of what you say, not immediately alienate them and allow them to discount all you say as a hostile partisan dialog. It’s human nature…

   Mind scraping that “patriotic” eagle of yours? Prevents me from even considering most of your posts for reading…

   From Steve Benen at Maddowblog:

   She explained that it was too early to draw “definitive conclusions,” but the “best information we have to date” suggested the violence “began spontaneously … as a reaction to what had transpired some hours earlier in Cairo” in response to the anti-Islam internet video.

   The ambassador then added, “But soon after that spontaneous protest began outside of our consulate in Benghazi, we believe that it looks like extremist elements, individuals, joined in that effort with heavy weapons.” Asked about a possible al Qaeda role, Rice said this was unclear, explaining, “I think this is one of the things we’ll have to determine.”

   All of that is exactly what the CIA had supplied to her in talking points. The scandal is that the foreign service is seriously underfunded by the house, who would like to drown it in a bathtub; not that Susan Rice reported to the public what was known at the time.

   If Republicans EVER want to be taken seriously, they have to start arguing about stuff that’s actually true.

    Good. Don’t read them. You’re a German who obviously hates America. We have enough Americans posting here insulting each other without constructive input, we don’t need any Europeans.

    Steve has shaken the troll tree. Seems the trolls are more concerned about their President’s honor than people under his watch that got murdered while he stood by doing nothing.
    He is no person to call at 3 am.

    Republicans trying to light the fires of coverup. Democrats running a smoke machine to correct (erroneous. probably unintentional) information released. Nobody doing anything to mitigate the next probable occurrence of a “Benghazi”. Ah, yes. D.C. at its finest where image is more important that substance. No one in D.C. has yet to explain how a group of people “spontaneously” appear with guns and RPGs.

    “Nobody doing anything to mitigate the next probable occurrence of a “Benghazi”.” And you know that how, exactly?

    This cartoonist is an idiot, based on his inability to think critically. I won’t be reading his junk, after today. Too much crapola, too regularly…
