Obama raises money off Benghazi

Saddam Husein deposed. End of report.



First of all, you claimed we were exacting retaliation for 9/11. Now you're saying we were trying to depose Hussein. Which was it?

Secondly, this is your position (as I understand it):

1. Ends justify the means.
2. The US should continue to be the world police, invading every country that has an evil dictator.

If so, that's very scary.



Both.

The end times are scarey.:

You know, it would be nice if, just once, you would actually think about the positions you hold and the sources you quote. Maybe one day, one time, you won't blindly believe a man who has (among other things) previously claimed that McCain collaborated with the VietCong in return for prostitutes and Hillary Clinton had a lesbian affair with a Saudi spy just because he's now saying something you wish to be true.

I won't hold my breath though. See, the point I was making earlier is that I don't accept royalty, I'm an abolitionist - but you'll happily bend the knee to anyone who tells you what you want to hear.
Do you want to have an ideagasm?

*********
From the Dailybeast:

When I heard that the House of Representatives has established a select committee to investigate the attack on Benghazi that left several Americans dead in 2012, I couldn't help but wonder what these same legislators might have done had Barack Obama been president in 2003, and had the audacity of George W. Bush to attack a sovereign country that had no relevant connection to the 9/11 attacks with the result that nearly 5,000 Americans and well over 100,000 Iraqi civilians (many of them women and children) perished. Had Obama’s war in Iraq also cost American taxpayers $1.7 trillion, with another $490 in veteran expenses (thus far)—with a total cost of $6 trillion projected—I have no doubt that a select committee would long ago have sent him to the Hague for trial as a war criminal.

So where is YOUR outrage, Ron, over the THOUSANDS killed in Iraq following an invasion based on lies?



You keep bringing that up. I have no outrage.

In 2003 the known FABRICATED evidence justified the invasion period.

FIFY

Do you always make decisions based on hindsight? That is like making a grocery list to go shopping yesterday.

Well, if you look at the threads from 2003 prior to the invasion, several of us (myself included) warned that the so-called "evidence" looked and smelled like BS. People like you ignored the warnings because you wanted it to be true.

I didn't start posting regularly in SC until my retirement in 2009. I have no reason to go back and read old threads. I am satisfied with the fact that following 9/11 we went into the Mideast and kicked ass. Like I said before, there is Israel and Israel's enemies. Israel's enemies are my enemies.

I tried to go back in the military in 1991 and was rejected due to my age. Some of my contemporaries went into contract and other services following the bombing in Beirut. IMO it's all the same war.

Unbelievable.



It's no wonder Americans have become the laughingstock of the world. And it happened way before January 2009.

Be humble, ask questions, listen, learn, follow the golden rule, talk when necessary, and know when to shut the fuck up.

It is useless to argue about the invasion of Iraq. SH needed to be removed and we did it.

The point now is to investigate the BHO administration and their political motivation for the Benghazi murders. I especially would like to see HC fully discredited in the process.

Do you think it might have begun around 1945? Or, maybe it was with the institution of the Marshall Plan.

Some people simply do not recognize what is and isn't "good for the country."

Be certain you understand what you mean by that phrase.

A country, "of the people, by the people, for the people," "and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal" is not just for the benefit of a select few.

That said, I hope Hillary doesn't get the nomination for the exact same reason I hope Jeb Bush doesn't get the nomination. Too much power held by too few people. I do not like the idea of the US becoming a de facto dual monarchy and simply switching families back and forth every four to eight years.

I'm OK with that. However, I my case I do not want another socialist in the White House.

Selective memory much?

You seriously can't remember how low US prestige was under GWB?



any way you look at it, it is much worse now

Still upset that we haven't started an illegal war recently?
