A Deadly Mix in Benghazi

That wasn't the question counselor; were the deaths in Iraq and Afghanistan the terrorists fault or Bush's? Try to be honest at least one time in your pathetic life.

The question cannot be answered. Some of them were more on Bush's shoulders than terrorists because they were not caused by terrorists. Some were the fault of the terrorists because they were caused by terrorists.
 
And you are asking me for a citation that somehow would show the ABSENCE of democrat's complaints about the embassy attack? Do you realize how fucking stupid that is? DUNCE?

For Commander dunce who is historically myopic and dishonest:

LAPSES BY REAGAN PLEASE DEMOCRATS
By HOWELL RAINES, Special to the New York Times
Published: October 1, 1984

WASHINGTON, Sept. 30— The unexpected sight of President Reagan struggling with political problems created by his impromptu remarks on foreign policy has made some Democratic leaders hope Walter F. Mondale can claw his way back into contention in the Presidential race.

On Thursday Mr. Reagan accused reporters of distorting his statement linking the Sept. 20 bombing of the United States Embassy in Lebanon to cutbacks in the American intelligence services before he took office.

PERCY ORDERS AN INQUIRY INTO EMBASSY SECURITY
By HEDRICK SMITH

Published: September 22, 1984

...............

Democratic leaders such as Walter F. Mondale and the Speaker of the House, Thomas P. O'Neill Jr., sensing an opportunity to step up election-year criticism of President Reagan's handling of foreign policy, especially in the Middle East, accused the Administration of taking inadequate security measures for the embassy. President's Style a Target.

¶ Democrats suggested that the possibility of security lapses in Beirut pointed up the risks of President Reagan's detached style of leadership.

¶ Campaigning in Birmingham, Ala., Mr. Mondale blamed a ''serious failure of security'' for the bombing and accused the Administration of a ''lax response'' to a ''perceived threat'' and to recommendations of the State Department and Congressional committees that had investigated previous attacks on the United States Embassy and the Marine barracks in Lebanon last year.

¶ ''I think it's an absolute disgrace,'' Mr. O'Neill said angrily during a breakfast session with reporters, after he was asked about the truck bombing.

¶ ''Someone was remiss and someone has to take responsibility in the Administration,'' the Speaker declared. He focused particularily strong criticism on the Administration's decision seven weeks ago to withdraw a contingent of 80 marines who had been protecting embassy facilities.

¶ Mr. O'Neill quoted Robert E. Lamb, Assistant Secretary of State for Administration, as saying in a briefing Thursday that the marines would have been in a better position to guard the embassy complex than the Lebanese militiamen who replaced them. Investigation Disclosed

MONDALE ATTACKS ADMINISTRATION ON BEIRUT BLAST
By BERNARD WEINRAUB

Published: September 22, 1984

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. Sept. 21— Walter F. Mondale blamed the Reagan Administration today for security lapses at the United States Embassy in Lebanon and said President Reagan ''owes the American people answers about this tragedy.''

''It is abundantly clear that protection of our embassy was clearly inadequate,'' Mr. Mondale said at a news conference a day after a suicide car-bomb devastated the Embassy in a suburb of East Beirut.

''Yesterday's tragedy indicates a serious failure of security,'' Mr. Mondale said, ''and it suggests that few lessons have been learned and applied from the massacre of our marines and the earlier attacks on our embassy in West Beirut and our embassy in Kuwait.''

The Democratic Presidential candidate repeatedly declined to use the word ''blame'' when asked about President Reagan's responsibility, but said at one point, ''The President is clearly to blame - let me put it this way - clearly responsible, for overall policy and direction'' in Beirut. President Is 'Satisfied'

The question cannot be answered. Some of them were more on Bush's shoulders than terrorists because they were not caused by terrorists. Some were the fault of the terrorists because they were caused by terrorists.

So if a soldier was killed by an Iraqi soldier, that wasn't the Iraqi soldiers fault or Saddam’s, who started the war, it was Bush fault? Is that the desperate, yet buffoonish, logic you are attempting here? Please do clarify.

Let me answer this for you; blaming the deaths of soldiers on the Commander and Chief in time of war is about the dumbest most moronic claim anyone can make. That blame lies squarely with the enemy who brings that war upon themselves.

Saddam brought the war on Iraq; US soldiers didn't die because of Bush, they died because of loyalist elements and terrorists.

Now if you want to continue with your illogical buffoonery, by all means, don't let me stop you.
 
But we must be careful not to put all R's under the same umbrella. A lot of them are horrified at what Bush did in the middle east.


I understand.

I wish I could still think that.


it has been driven out of me by cons themselves by over a decade of their lies
 
Dead Americans was the result, and the response was - "What difference – at this point, what difference does it make?"

Personally, I would prefer someone who cared a tad more for Americans abroad, and the truth.
 
So its not the terrorists fault? You are going to blame Secretary Clinton over the terrorists? WOW!

Dear dunce; no one is blaming Clinton for the deaths; that clearly is on the terrorists head, who are still free.

What we are blaming is the incompetence that RESULTED in these deaths and the subsequent cover up.

For a lawyer, you sure seem to have a difficult time following topics and debate. I am thinking your stupidity is not feigned, but that it comes rather naturally to you.

Do you know what she was responding to when she said the above quote?

Yep, I sure do. And I don't think ANY politician, especially those in charge of decisions, should ever be bypassing answers within an inquiry and stating it no longer matters. With Americans dead, we deserve to know ALL the answers. I've never seen so much dodging questions, at least since the fast and furious debacle, which also killed Americans.

"We still have four Americans dead because of Hillary"

Really, nobody is blaming Secretary Clinton for the deaths?

Really?
 
Do you know what she was responding to when she said the above quote?

Yes, it was her desperate and despicable deflections to avoid answering the question as to why this Administration KNOWINGLY LIED to the American people.

You thought it was something else? Please notice in the video that she refused to acknowledge or answer the question as to why the Administration lied. This is a common tactic of deceitful liars under oath; attack the questioner but never answer the question.


 
The question asked of her was whether or not it was due to a protest, or if some guys went out for a walk and just decided to kill Americans. I think it was a valid question, not one worthy of stating it no longer matters.

I guess you missed those tapes of R. Regan being deposed in the Iran Contra Affair.

Really?

Who made that quote? Someone on this forum? And that changes the dialogue and attempts by Republicans to get answers? Really dunce?
