quade 4 #987 May 14, 2014 rushmcWhere was Obama when the Benghazi attack was going on? At the White House. There is absolutely no question on that. NONE. Some people want to know precisely and minute-by-minute what he was doing in which rooms over night, but there is NO QUESTION WHATSOEVER that he was at The White House. Here he is arriving back at The White House that day from attending events. http://www.whitehouse.gov/schedule/president/2012-09-11 Here he is delivering a statement the next morning. http://www.whitehouse.gov/schedule/president/2012-09-12quade - The World's Most Boring Skydiver Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mirage62 0 #989 May 14, 2014 So??? And as you say "I know I'm going to regret this"" So what that he was at the WH. IF this was Bush you be screaming the same questions - but it's Obama so you just "believe" he was doing something great. It's a legit question, where was he during the attack? What was he doing? You'd want these questions answered if it was any Republican.

mirage62 0 #992 May 14, 2014 No shit, Quade. Which btw Obama could have been taking a dump the entire time. Your an intelligent person - you know that every moment of the Presidents' Day is tracked. Can't you just get off your one sided view just for a moment and wonder WHY the WH hasn't released where he was?? We all know that if it was Bush you'd ask, and when you didn't get an answer - at all - you'd go ape shit. I know this is a waste of time but why do you just believe so hard??

Nixon did not get forced out of office for the actual break in He got forced out because of his lies and attempted cover up I disagree, I'd say it was because of the break in. There are politicians who've lost their jobs by lying and perjuring to cover up actions that were embarrasing but not in themselves illegal, corrupt or relating to official misconduct - in Nixon's case he was up to his neck in corruption and criminality before the story ever started. He could hve been indicted with or without the cover up.Do you want to have an ideagasm? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
