Because Trump LIES so much they can't use the excuse that she was a liar.

I saw a car sticker here in TV recently which said

HILLARY LIED AND 4 DIED.

Problem is Hillary "lied" after they are already dead!

They might not talk about it now, but Benghazi will always be important. It just needed to stay front and center during the election because the one who failed to do her job and protect those men was running for the highest office in the land.

There are those that would have us all forget about the first 9/11. Remember, Benghazi happened on the anniversary of that attack to send a message.

To forget either would be wrong.

If Hillary failed to do her job which caused a terror attack then G W Bush failed to do his job when the biggest terror attack on American soil occurred.

And then he started a war he couldn't finish.

Before you label me a lefty....

My nephew Brian is a Gunnery Sargent in the Marines with a Purple Heart in Iraq. (5 tours)
My nephew Dan is a Captain in the US Army Reserves who is currently in country as I write this post.

I worry about them all the time....be more so now that one is in harms way.

If Hillary failed to do her job why could 5 million dollars and years of investigation could find nothing. The Sec of State is NOT in charge of the security of the bases. The Congress cut the budget. And the Ambassador was told NOT to go to the Benghazi station as it was NOT a secure location. He was NOT at an embassy when the attack happened.

It was the very very dishonest press, as Trump likes to say, but I call it Faux News!

Just because someone in your family has guts to serve his country, that does not give you a pass on being a libtard.

All of us that served, served our country because we felt an obligation. Libtards have no such patriotic duty in their selfish ideology. All they do is hold their hands out and want them filled, as well has telling us how much and what to give them. When your nephew joined, he knew that he was joining the military, not a prep school. He joined, knowing he might have to fight. He trained to fight, not build schools and churches. Do NOT belittle his commitment by using him in your liberal agenda.

I did not say that Hillary caused the attack. Her failure was due to her inaction when the attack was occurring and when they requested additional security prior to the attack. Her INACTION was the problem and then her calling of the parents liars. How would you feel if they had been your nephews, she told you one thing, and then accused you of lying when you repeated what you had been told?

With all the complaining of the airport "inconvenience" because of Presidents Trump travel suspension, can you imagine the hell Bush would have received had he closed the airports over intel received about terrorists planning to use airliners for an attack? They had it, but mistakenly thought that the plans were for planes in other countries. As for starting a war, he did rely on the intel received and later was branded a liar for acting on that.

I have two sons retired from the Navy. Both served overseas, Mediterrean and Gitmo. One of them even wrote on one of the bombs that it was compliments of us. Thank you for the service of your nephews, as well.

:BigApplause:

When my sons joined the Navy, they both told me that it was their choice to serve and that they knew the risks going in. They asked me please to never berate anyone if something should ever happen to them in combat. Remember the one Mom who raised such a stink because she lost her son?

I promised them that I would never do that because I supported their decision and trusted their judgement. When they wanted to sign up, the only thing I ever told them:

"If that is what you want, then don't let anyone talk you out of it. If it is not what you want, then don't let anyone talk you into it. It is your decision and yours alone."

It is an established fact that when it comes to scandals progressives circle the wagons and continue their campaign of denials, lies, cover ups procrastination , name calling , etc.

conservatives on the other hand band together against the offender and do the honorable thing and drum the offender out of the corp. some of these offenders are honorable enough to resign.

Hillary by any measure belongs in jail. Obama's stooges were told to leave her be.

Imagine what would happen if the DOJ announced it was going to continue the investigation into Hillary malfeasance.

Trump attempted to protect the nation with a warning shot to sanctuary cities and we see what happened. he attempted a travel ban and the progressives went manic. You can't deal with the kardashian nation

Let's hope that Hillary doesn't get to slide because we are a nation who are bound by the rule of law and no one is above the law.

I did last Sunday a brunch. There was a Army Veteran there in a wheelchair which indicated he holds the Purple Heart.

I said "Thank you for your service" and you should have said "Thank them for their service"

Actually there are several responses to your question. One of them is the left stalls, recognizing that Americans have a short attention span. and here you are bringing up this uncomfortable issue again. watch it your lefty big brothers will be all over you.

But what intrigues most is that when it comes to issues of national prominence such as Benghazi, IRS, scandal Fast & Furious etc the left isn't patriotic enough to simply demand that our elected leaders come clean. No its always party first and never country first. Hmmmmmm

ONLY if you make it "white" again. We're on an express elevator to 3rd world hell. Minorities are already the majority according to Joe Biden...minorities ARE the majority below age 7. Within 30 years, the country is lost, becoming Mexico II. It's a mathematical certainty.

Unless we act decisively and quickly. The anchor babies MUST be declared non-citizens and sent back. Along with their children. "Under the jurisdiction of" is NOT here illegally.

The Constitution says..."under the jurisdiction of" but someone here illegally is NOT under the jurisdiction of...they snuck in and are sneaking around so as not to be discovered. If you snuck into my house, are you under my jurisdiction? If you break into a building, are you under its owners jurisdiction? NO you are not.

Let me address your overall concern and that is the proportion of white to non-white population. Its too late the die has been cast. There simply a greater percentage of whites dying to whites being born. Minorities are having more babies and add to that legal immigration.

simply look at sports teams, movies, television, advertising, music industry etc and already minorities prevail. yet the laws pertaining to discrimination, quotas, etc continue on the books. Hate crimes protect the protected classes but not white heterosexuals.

We should all be on equal footing with equal opportunity. progressive overreached with their social justice campaigns which have gain momentum.

I believe that I have discussed this at length including my sister's personal story during and after her divorce. But perhaps that was in a different thread.

I come from a working class background my father witnessed the stock market crash and the great depression, my mother was born during that period. My bedtime stories explained the impact to their lives and the ray of light FDR provided to bring the nation out of the darkness. Therefore I have supported welfare as a means to help people up when they have fallen on hard times. However, this summer I had an eye opening experience which has reshaped my views. I had a discussion with a women whose husband's ex wife has been on welfare for 16 years. Honestly, I didn't realize anyone could receive welfare for that long! What happened to Workfair? It got worse when she explained that welfare now included section 8 housing, cable TV and a cellphone. WHAT?

Then I read Hillbilly Elegy by JD Vance which I found very enlightening. JD Vance is no liberal and his book helped to reshape my views on welfare.

It appears, at least to me, life on welfare is so good that for a section of the population it enough! We could also discuss the abuse of the disability program.

The welfare system should be a hand up NOT a vocation.

I do have ideology which appears, some areas, to the left of you.
My remarks are not stupid you just don't agree with them.

So if it makes you feel better continue the childish name calling!

I believe that I have discussed this at length including my sister's personal story during and after her divorce. But perhaps that was in a different thread.

And yet, you continue. Oh well, if you are that sensitive, I will reiterate that Libtard is just a descriptor not a vulgar word....that is unless you consider it a slur. In that case, you may be right. It may very well be an insult if I called a conservative a libtard. On the other hand, you should own it. After all, you libtards continue to whine about your election lose, attempting to make excuses or demean Trump's total annihilation of Killary.

Too bad about you being too sensitive to have a legitimate discussion. You would rather deviate from the subject to complain about your personal issues. Perhaps you should allow the men to converse since you obviously are too sensitive for political discussion. Just a suggestion.

"President-elect Donald Trump rang in the new year together with Joseph "Joey No Socks" Cinque — a convicted felon with ties to notorious Gambino crime family boss John Gotti, a recently released video has revealed.

Cinque can be seen in a video obtained by the Palm Beach Daily News, cheering loudly as a tuxedo-clad Trump runs through a number of campaign promises before the hundreds of guests attending the New Year's Eve bash the President-elect threw at his Mar-a-Lago estate in Florida on Saturday.

"The taxes are coming down, regulations are coming off, we're going to get rid of Obamacare," Trump can be heard saying as an exuberant Cinque stands next to him, pumping his fists into the air."

Trump appears with mobster-affiliated felon at New Year's bash - NY Daily News (http://www.nydailynews.com/news/politics/trump-appears-mobster-affiliated-felon-new-year-bash-article-1.2932315)

"Beyond a 1989 felony conviction for possessing nearly $100,000 worth of stolen artwork, Cinque "used to be friends with John Gotti," according to a New York Magazine profile from 1995.

Cinque was also "shot three times and left for dead" in a 1980 incident that authorities described as "a hit," according to the profile.

Further, Saturday's Mar-a-Lago party was far from the first time Cinque cheered on Trump. "

Not so. A felon is a person that commits a felony. Hillary has committed several felonies, but has not YET been indicted. It's just a matter of time, unless she disappears. Most likely she will drink herself to death or have a fatal drunken accident. No one will miss her. Scumbag traitors are not missed.

I am sensitive to the word Libtard because I don't see myself as a liberal in many areas. I believe I have endeavored to carry on a peaceful intellectual discussion perhaps that is not possible in this forum at this time. Political discussion need not be a blood sport, both sides have a view point and should be respected. Sometimes we can learn from each other as I have done in the past year in regard to welfare.

I haven't whined about the election loss because I didn't want Hillary to run. Again you get me wrong, she had to much baggage to win and it got her!

Good post.

Let me explain something. And I recall you from the past...this is BUCCO....and you and I are not normally on the same wavelength, BUT I came back to post for TWO reasons..

1. I find the election of Trump or Clinton to be terrible. I voted third party, but after watching a man who I have followed for years simply manipulate people, set a new low for lying, I need to vent.

2. When I first returned here I found a few things. People who I once respected, I find are total hypocrites. When I was on TOTV in the past, they touted morals, honesty and character and now simply the opposite. The other thing I found were uninformed extremist simply taking over this place. It seems un managed, but while I would consider a discussion of policy issues and accept any side, these are extremists that appear to represent the alt right group. I was anti Obama...I probably criticized him more than anyone, especially in his first campaign, but my heart is not so filled with such hate as these people, and as much as I can, I will not allow hate filled rhetoric, based on this Trump character.

These people know nothing. All they can do whenever you bring something up is attack Clinton or Obama, neither of whom are around in office any longer. They will defend Trump using whatever means...truth is not an option....but mostly they just keep making false, needless, passe claims. They. Like Trump cannot get past the campaign and rehash at every opportunity.

Wonder if this is a symptom.

By the way, this is NOT a leftover...THIS was put in place by the Trump admin. This guy is a Trumper.

"The White House abruptly dismissed a senior National Security Council aide on Friday after receiving reports that he had publicly laced into the president and his senior aides, including son-in-law Jared Kushner and daughter Ivanka Trump at an event hosted by a Washington think tank.

The aide, Craig Deare, was serving as the NSC's senior director for Western Hemisphere Affairs. Earlier in the week, at a private, off-the-record roundtable hosted by the Woodrow Wilson Center for a group of about two dozen scholars, Deare harshly criticized the president and his chief strategist Steve Bannon and railed against the dysfunction paralyzing the Trump White House, according to a source familiar with the situation."

Sure, you are right up there with Billy Graham and the Pope. Why not be honest and quit with the false indignity?

Why do we doubt you? Well, you start off almost every post with you being a conservative. Then you set about posting liberal talking points regarding Trump. Why do we bring up Obama and Clinton? Because as long as you keep talking impeachment, his morals because he said something that you are probably just as guilty of saying, over a decade ago, and assuming he has a relationship with Putin, then he will be compared with Obama and Clinton. Bill Clinton will also be brought into the fray, as well as any other scumbag liberal that is Anti-American.

Instead of talking policies, you liberals (yes Republicans are liberals also) you want to disparage the president on a personal level.

Several posters on here have claimed to be registered Republicans or conservatives and then go about giving us the same lowlife liberal talking points that prove otherwise. Funny thing is that one poster that I will not name but I have learned quite a bit about once he decided to pursue me on a personal level to the point of almost stalking, really is registered as a Republican. And he also rides with the radical left on here.

But, it's no big deal. I came on here originally to discuss politics in a civil manner, and got attacked for it. Now I give back as much if not more than I receive. But, I am tiring of the diverting from subject and have started spending more time with my hobbies and less time on here. My injuries have healed to the point where I can go back to a more active lifestyle and less goofing off on the computer. I plan to spend less time on here and more time with other activities, so that's why none of this bothers me much anymore. Trump won and I am satisfied that America has been somewhat steered away from the cliff that we were headed for. Maybe socialism and communism has been averted for a while longer. It's not about winning but about AMerica. Not about who steers but where they want to aim us. It will be nice if we can get back on the road again. America is not operating with power steering. It's taking a long time to turn this great vehicle. It going to take some rough riding and some big bumps to get us back on the road to recovery.

And I do not have to like Trump to support him. I like what he is doing and what he says are his intentions for America. So far he is living up to my expectations.

Oh I intend to.

I envision most of these posters...the extreme alt right, sitting in a basement somewhere sneaking time on the computer. I know that's not true, but that is the image they portray.

Yeah, I recall those days where folks like you and I could be on opposite sides, but respect each other, motivate each other to read even more to confirm our thoughts and present them without preaching.

There are a few posters on here from those days, but from what I see...well, thinking if only 3 right now, but they are hypocrites of the highest degree. They would join folks like me extolling truthfulness, moral character, etc., and if you recall..I was a leader in talking about Obamas relationships wit Wright, studies of Alinsky, etc.

Now, the hypocrites who joined me just do not care about a liar if such epic proportions, when you lay it out it doesn't even seem possible, don't care about his associations with the mob, don't care if he screwed every woman on the planet, etc. A man who adopted the alt right, appointed people like Bannon and Flynn to his staff...well, Alinsky and Wright sound pretty darn tame.

Those same hypocrites do not see what he is doing to our country...have the President of the United States look into American citizens eyes and just lie is scary..

You and I probably still have our basic differences, except for this man in the WH.

These folks pass him off as some sort of change maker. He is not even close, and I suppose he simply allowed them to openly hate.

This is a take over by Bannon and his ilk. They have their poster boy, are good at communicating and not say anything.

Folks on here do not read the international press...but then again it is all fake unless it is good for you, but if they did, they would understand...

Well, let's say it this way....as you well know, I opposed Obama and strenuously. But hearing this punk say what a mess he inherited, when I recall being in here discussing our dire financial situation in 2008, the numerous wars going on, etc. and while I literally did not like Obama policies, this is not a mess.

Back to these extreme folks on here...they do not respect facts, only 3 things..whatever Trump says...hate for Clinton...and hate for Obama.

You must be confused too. Seems like many on here are confused. You insist that you do not like this or that, and then use half a page to justify your position. You say that you do not want to defend Obama. Ok, so don't. You say we are all ignorant and uninformed for voting for Trump. That we do not know anything about him and that he must be evil. I noticed that you did not say anything about Hillary. I wonder if you voted for her. Since you are all knowing and know everything about Trump, I assume you also know everything about Hillary. So, I know you would not be able to vote for her. So, you said you voted third party. And we know how that went. That means you probably either voted for the dope head or the tree hugger. Little difference.

You have a right to be critical of Trump. But, you decided that you are far superior than those on here that voted "ignorantly" for Trump. Sorry, but you lost credibility when you admitted to voting for the loser.

So, next I expect that you will attempt to say that Trump is a bad guy and that he says bad things. OK, we know that. We also know that he has run on and is attempting to do what we elected him for. He is the hardest worker the White House has seen in decades. He may not be nice, but I don't care if I like him or not as long as he does what I elected him to do. And he is doing it. So, disparage him all you wish and be corrected when you are wrong, but you are arrogantly showing your @ss by disparaging those that support him. Maybe those that voted for him, had to hold their noses to vote. Maybe we voted for his policies not his personality. Maybe some of us voted against the felon Hillary and did not want her to win at all cost.

There you go. Now, don't you feel much better getting that out in the open.
So, you knew she was a felon and that she was likely instrumental in getting Americans killed. You knew that she was a pathological liar and a thief. You knew that she had/has a scam going with her charities and a pay to play scheme. You knew that she voted for the sale of 20% of the world's uranium to Russia. You now say that Russia is evil and that Trump has a relationship with the evil Putin. I guess now you realize that Hillary had more of a relationship with Russia than Trump. So, even though Hillary is a criminal felon waiting to be prosecuted, you voted for her.

You just can't make this kind of stupidity up. You didn't want to vote for Hillary but someone made you do it. Could that someone have been the Devil, as in "the Devil made me do it"?
