The facts on Benghazi will come out and I believe the President will be found to have done nothing wrong. It may be some of the people who are delegated to handle matters of state and security for diplomats may be found to have dropped the ball, but nothing criminal will be found. The Republicans have control of the HoR and will be able to continue investigating. While that is going on, can we work on making the healthcare bipartisan and more functional than it is? Can we move on getting off shore windmills built? Can we fix some of our thousands of bridges that are in need of repair? Can we improve our power grid to protect it from computer attacks and other threats?Benghazi is under investigation. In the meantime, let’s fix something.Respectfully,C.
Michael, the middle class is beginning to understand the GOP does not have its best interest at heart. The Republican party is going to really have to start lying big time to get the middle class to vote for them in the future.
“posting everywhere for “right wing types” to be gracious but totally ignoring the “left wing type’s” gloating and mean-spirited snipes”I absolutely agree. The mocking and gloating are unwarranted and even un-American. We really need to get beyond the foolish name-calling. And get to work.
@ninety_nine_percent, it is clear that the Democrats only care about their own interests of making the rich poor and the poor even more poor. In 1961 John F. Kennedy said, “Ask not what your country can do for you – Ask what you can do for your country.” Today, the Democratic party has flipped that on its head entirely. You just gave the perfect example of the Democrat stance, it’s about you and how you benefit from the government.
Also, stop with the class warfare stuff, I bet you are in the top 1% of the world. What are you doing to make the world better? Stop complaining about the 1% and start doing something productive.
I’m not talking about Benghazi anymore until new information is presented. However,Aren’t bills often redrafted and improved by functional congresses? “Obamacare”, a product based on “Romneycare” was ramrodded through because Nancy Pelosi was proudful and arrogant. Republicans had also threatened to block anything that wasn’t funded or called for tax increases. The healthcare product we have is not the best that could have been drafted. I would like to see the healthcare bill reviewed by the committees and for sensible, bipartisan changes suggested. Howgozit, we need a better healthcare system, or our hospitals need permission to turn people away who come to emergency rooms with no way to pay. Are you telling me that healthcare should only be for people with money?I know you are angry, but how can we channel anger into communication with those we elect?Respectfully,C.
So, I expect to be hearing the liberals and the Democrat Propaganda Ministry, a.k.a., the main stream media, absolutely attacking Chris “Obama gives me a thrill up my leg” Matthews for being happy hurricane Sandy hit-
“To all the millions of victims of superstorm Sandy, Chris Matthews has a message: “I’m so glad.”
The MSNBC host, on a panel of pro-Obama pundits including Rachel Maddow, ended election coverage overnight by saying he’s “glad” the storm hit, suggesting it served a greater good by boosting President Obama to a second term.
“I’m so glad we had that storm last week,” Matthews said, after interjecting to give some final thoughts. Somebody off-screen could be heard saying “ooo” at that remark, but Matthews confidently put his hand up to explain.
“No, politically I should say — not in terms of hurting people. The storm brought in possibilities for good politics,” he said."
Our president is an expert at stonewalling – The investigation will never get a straight answer – Example = Fast and Furious.The guilt will be buried under a pile of lies and stalls.Oh well, if HE were found guilty – no punishment would ever be applied – only that we would not be allowed to vote for himin 2016.
I turn to Ramirez to find out that Romney won the election, but for some reason he is avoiding the subject. What gives? Oh, wait, maybe it’s Ramirez who has the black eye and can’t see the results.
Well, the extreme left loves the media and have no clue what you are saying. Benghazi should not be forgotten but investigated to determine what went wrong. I suspect a State Department liberal didn’t want marines there to make the US look mean by carrying a big stick. They felt just because the country was fresh out of a civil war there was no need for security because “Peace and Love” should prevail. CBS is a corrupted news source.At least under Uncle Walter we ate up whatever he said in the 50’s – 70’s because he sounded so reassuring. Then reality hit home about corruption in the CBS news when Dan Rather took over. It hasn’t changed since then. They need to fire producers and hire reputable reporters to appear on screen. Michael , You keep up with the great editorial cartoons. Love your work!
