Benghazi Impeachment Suddenly Not So Far-Fetched

wrong, the findings have been substantial. It has been proven that hillary, obama, and rice lied to the american people for weeks about who did it and why they did it. the whole video thing was a huge lie-----and the guy that made the video remains in jail--------for what?

the incompetence of the clinton state dept is evident, the non caring attitude of obama is evident. the cover up is evident.

Hillary is done, obama is a lame duck. liberalism is dying. Maybe the USA can be saved.

The findings were no different than the findings after any embassy attack

You can always come in after the fact and say this or that could have been done differently. We did the same thing after the attack on the Marine barracks in Beirut under Reagan. Analysis showed that the barracks were not defended against a truck bomb. After the attack, all compounds had barriers to prevent vehicles from getting that close

The only difference is that nobody called for Reagan to be impeached

On March 6, 1987 Rep. Henry B. Gonzalez, Chairman of the House Banking, Finance, and Urban Affair, introduced articles of impeachment against President Ronald Reagan. This resulted in appointment of a special prosecutor and an investigation costing something over $40 million - roughly $60 million in today's dollars - and joint hearings that dominated the summer.

Further Democrats took to the House floor night after night after night in full view of the Cspan cameras giving long speeches during a then House privilege called 'special orders' and accusing President Reagan and those in his administration of all manner of hateful things. Gonzalez continued those well into the George H.W. Bush adminisration accusing President Bush of ridiculous conspiracy theories.

The special prosecutor, appointed by a Democratic controlled Congress, found that laws were broken, and some indictments and convictions resulted. But though they did their damndest to hang Reagan and, if possible, Bush 41, they were unable to link either one to any crime.

But I don't recall any Democrat or even any Republicans referring to all that as a 'witch hunt', nor did President Reagan object to the investigation in any respect. We deserve to have a government that welcomes investigations.

GTFO. lol. yeah the reagan admin cooperated fully with iran contra. I'd be happy to post why iran contra was largely a political turf battle, and why Reagan's legacy should get a pass .... but dang with crap like that I'm not gonna bother. I wish you well with self immolation.

The difference is that Reagan didn't lie and start a huge coverup campaign.

The truck bombing in Beirut is a non seuqitur. The Reagan administration had no forewarning that the barracks was going to come under assault. However, the Obama administration had ample warning, and they ignored it.

Here is President Reagan's immediate response to the bombing in Beirut:

But our current administration seems quite a bit more ambivalent - acknowledging that this is an edited youtube clip, intended to criticze Obama et al, using quotations out of full context, but I don't believe putting them in full context will significantly change the points made:

It doesn't matter, why continue to waste our tax dollars, they are never going to remove a sitting president. EVER! Nixon resigned. Clinton, who said if a president lies to the American people he should be removed from office, never resigned.

No one was ever punished, nor will any politician, dem or rep be punished. They're all a bunch of crooks and every so often they do these "investigations" to make us think they are actually working for us instead of corporations and big business.

We know the truth and the American people either can't or won't do anything about it, why continue to waste our tax dollars? Or is it that the congress people involved just need more money?
 
Many said the same about Nixon.
Sometimes, just sometimes, things work the way they are supposed to.

Reagan did not lie about it and try to cover up the truth------obama lied, hillary lied, rice lied-------thats the difference.

Reagan tended to say ...."I forgot" a lot

And the following:

"Mistakes were made." ...of course, without attributing those mistakes to anyone in particular.
 
Reagan did not lie about it and try to cover up the truth------obama lied, hillary lied, rice lied-------thats the difference.

What difference does it make whether they lied to the people about what happened? Nowhere in the law of the land does it say that the government must be honest with the American people about what happens at their Embassies abroad. Presidents have been lying to the public since the first President was elected. In this case the lies were told at the behest of the CIA because they hoped to catch the terrorists by continuing to monitor their radio communications. But the Republicans ended that opportunity when they outed the CIA's role in this.

No one has ever told the truth to the public about national security matters or what the CIA has been up to. Why is Obama and only Obama being called out for national security lies?

Reagan said he never supplied arms to the Iranians and that was a lie. Nixon said he didn't help Pinochet in Chile and that was a lie. American Presidents have lied to the people endlessly. Why are Obama's lies worse?

Leftist trash^^^^
 
The GOP won't impeach Obama because even they have the sense to try to retain some chance of winning the presidency in the next twenty years.

Impeach Obama and he'll end up like Clinton, only without the baggage.

Impeach Obama and his approval rating will go up even further than Clinton's did.

Impeach Obama and he will successfully help Democrats win races, including the presidency, for the next twenty years.

Without a doubt , the rightys already look like a bunch of political hacks as it is :eusa_drool:
 
Impeachment is about all the Republicans have, and Republicans love to talk impeachment. Impeachment talk has sort of an official ring about it and sounds so official and scary. I wonder if there is any Democratic president, since Truman, that Republicans have not used the impeachment threat? Strangely enough I don't remember any talk of impeaching FDR, and if anyone gave Republicans the willies it was FDR. Have to do some homework and see what the FDR impeachment threats were.
 
Seems to me the Democrats are talking about impeachment a whole lot more than one or two right of center here is. And certainly more than any Republicans on Capitol Hill are. There must be evidence of high crimes and misdemeanors and that is something different than being a lying, opportunistic, deceptive, dishonorable person. Obama rarely goes on the record about anything, and when he does and it turns out badly, he denies that he did.

But even though impeachment is not on the table--and it never was--I still hope there are more Americans who want the truth than there are those who continue to divert attention away from it just because it is inconvenient to their ideologoy and the day's assigned talking points. And throwing out the 'impeachment' word must be the current assigned talking point.

So it's okay with you if Obama lies just because he has a D after his name? And because other politicians have lied? You justify lying to the American public to further their personal advantage and interests because 'everybody does it?'? When the standards bar is set that low, how do we ever correct anything that is wrong in government? In our nation?

Limbaugh's description of this administration as a regime is seeming more and more apt. The IRS has admitted criminal wrong-doing that is stunningly obviously politically motivated. Of course there is Fast and Furious--all of these incidents demonstrates Obama's willingness to conceal the truth, smear those who tell the truth, and exert presidential powers in preventing the truth to be told.

This is a criminal presidency, and it is only a matter of time before the truth will come out and the motivations, which should be obvious to anyone that has an understanding of Obama's history, behind the actions of this regime are plainly highlighted.
 
A trumped up partisan GOP impeachment of Obama would be fitting end to the fake 'new' Republican Party's fake outreach to minorities.

LOL. Let's put that up as a photo:

Actually I've felt a little sorry for Jay Carney lately because even though he was no doubt chosen to be press secretary because he looked so studious and innocent and could sound sort of credible no matter what they send him out to say, even he has to be uncomfortable repeating some of that stuff to the media and the world. It is so far off the track of the honest truth and he has to know that.

And even though he has reported that the e-mails won't be released, we now know that they were heavily redacted and rewritten for Jay and Susan Rice et al to use to deliberately and intentionally create a false meme re what happened at Benghazi. We know the e-mails exist and will eventually be forced into the open because even Huffpo and CNN are now reporting them.

Summaries of White House and State Department emails -- some of which were first published by Stephen F. Hayes of the Weekly Standard -- also contradict the White House version of events that led to U.N. Ambassador Susan Rice misleading the public about the cause of the Sept. 11, 2012, attack on the U.S. installation in Libya.

Where does this all lead?

Politics: It would be naïve to expect any White House to ignore the political implications of a foreign policy crisis occurring two months before a presidential election. But there is a reason why no White House admits to finessing a tragedy: It's unseemly. State Department spokeswoman Victoria Nuland injected politics into the U.S. response to Benghazi when she raised objections to draft “talking points” being prepared for Rice’s television appearances.

One paragraph, drafted by the CIA, referenced the agency’s warnings about terrorist threats in Benghazi in the months prior to the attack, as well as extremists linked to the al-Qaida affiliate Ansar al-Sharia. In an email to officials at the White House and intelligence agencies, Nuland said the information “could be abused by members (of Congress) to beat up the State Department for not paying attention to warnings, so why would we want to feed that either? Concerned …”

The paragraph was deleted. The truth was scrubbed.

Nuland still had concerns. “These changes don’t resolve all of my issues or those of my buildings (sic) leadership,” she wrote.

(An administration official familiar with Nuland's thinking said she was worried that the CIA was trying to exonerate itself at the expense of the State Department by suggesting that security warnings were ignored. Nuland was focused on interagency politics, not presidential politics, said the official who refused to be identified. Nuland declined to comment for this story, and thus the official's characterization of her motive could not be verified.)

Did she have good reason to believe that Republicans or the CIA would undermine then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton (the building leader)? Yes.

Could she trust the GOP or CIA to play fair? No.

Could Benghazi be a campaign issue if not carefully managed? Yes.

But regardless of Nuland's motive, this is now clear: The Obama administration let political considerations cloud the public record. For far too long, the White House shied away from calling Benghazi a terrorist attack and stood behind Rice’s initial statement that it was inspired by protests over a crude anti-Islamic video.

But yesterday Carney threw Hillary under the bus--it was subtle and low key, but he absolutely said the White House had a teensy role in the whole thing and everything else was the doings of the State Department.
