How's this new turn in foriegn policy working out?

Ben Bernanke, wiki:

Bernanke then served as chairman of President George W. Bush's Council of Economic Advisers before President Bush appointed him on February 1, 2006, to be chairman of the United States Federal Reserve. Bernanke was confirmed for a second term as chairman on January 28, 2010, after being re-nominated by President Barack Obama.


This is a guy who really understands the economy.
 
So is your position these attacks were spontaneous and caused by a you tube video?

Yes or no please...

If I had to just pick one I'd go with yes. These are people who not too long ago went pretty bat shit over some comics. The idea that a bunch of easily riled people who already have plans in place launched them when there was a convenient excuse and or they got butt hurt doesn't sound unlikely. If you're stance is that they did this because of 9/11 why this year? Did they not get the memo that last year was the ten year anniversary and thus ideal year to raise hell?
 
Old Glory strikes back.

In an apparent case of red, white and blue revenge, a Pakistani protester died yesterday after inhaling smoke from a burning American flag during an anti-US rally.

Abdullah Ismail succumbed at Mayo Hospital in Lahore a day after attending the fierce protest at the city’s Mall Road, where an estimated 10,000 people rallied.

Witnesses said Ismail had complained of feeling ill after breathing fumes from burning flags, Pakistan’s Express Tribune reported.

:D

Lisa Jackson announced the EPA is launching an investigation to ascertain if the flags were manufactured in the USA and if the manufacturer violated environmental regulations by using dangerous chemical dyes. :D

Perfect...
 
So now we have testimony by US intelligence officials that Benghazi was indeed a terrorist attack and was months in the planning.

Kinda blows that whole 'spontaneous' and 'YouTube' based bullshit right out of the water. And that being the case, we're right back to harvesting the fruits of this administrations foreign policy.

Many retirees are very productive in a social sense.

Many retirees do not have earned income, but have investments that contribute to the economy.

So they're just like someone who pays no income tax because they don't make enough? Funny.

Who is in that 47%? Does it include the elderly/retired or not?

A family of 5 making $50k per year will pay no income tax. Are they government dependent victim leeches on society like Mitt claims?

Iran is channeling arms and personal through Iraq to get them to Syria.


No good deed goes unpunished...

In what way?
 
Now we find out that the attack in Benghazi was carried out by a terrorist that Obama let out of Gitmo. In addition the lie that the former Navy SEALS were part of the ambassador's security detail is false. Turns out they were working for a contractor in other security matters and were in no way responsible for the Ambassador's safety. They jumped into the fight when they saw the Ambassador's security begin to crumble.

This is from your own boy Drudge and via Fox News:

Sufyan Ben Qumu is thought to have been involved and even may have led the attack, Fox News’ intelligence sources said. Qumu, a Libyan, was released from the U.S. prison at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, in 2007 and transferred into Libyan custody on the condition he be kept in jail. His Guantanamo files also show he has ties to the financiers behind the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks.

Who was president in 2007, Methuselah? A little too early for your Alzheimer's to be setting in, innit?
 
This is such a fuck up that it's difficult to find a place to start. But................

Rather than take a 'we're going to find out' stance regarding the attack they immediately spun a story and a motive, both of which have been relegated to the dust bin of bad fiction. It was totally 'knee jerk' and driven by domestic politics as opposed to any sort of cogent foreign policy.

Further, they may have been the primary cause of subsequent demonstrations by bringing continued notice to the video clip that they erroneously blamed the Benghazi attack on. And I will be the first to admit that this is mere conjecture, it can hardly be argued that by continually focusing on a non-motive they actually achieved anything constructive.

Regardless we are now faced with the fact that one of two things have occurred regarding this administrations foreign policy. Either they stepped up and tried to feed the US public, and the rest of the world, a lie, or they are so delusional that they believed every word they uttered. And It's really tough to call which of those two are the worse.

....and the old media sits in pathetic silence. If they did their job Obama would lose in a landslide. Now - not so much.
 
There's nothing quite like the smell of right wing desperation first thing in the morning.

Got to get those talking points our early with juuuuust the right amount of manufactured outrage. It's not easy to do get up and do it everyday.

What really makes my day is that they're not even republicans. Every last one is a *giggle* libertarian. :D
 
The MSM is turning out to be a major propaganda organ for the Obama re-election effort. They are the enemy. They have no respect for the concept of a free press.

You're so far off the sanity grid it isn't even funny anymore.
 
I guess I owe the President an apology. Thanks for pointing that out Zoomie. Bush and his lawyers were idiots too by the way, and you better hope that Obama isn't really thinking about letting the Blind Sheik go as a gesture to Islam.

while Bush was a fool

you have to remember, it was the D's and teh LIBZ like the ZUMDUMOH's.....that screamed about GITMO
