| Lawrence O’Donnell took on senators John McCain and Lindsay Graham tonight over what he deemed their brand-new standards for how to decide whether or not to support someone for a Cabinet position, and found their opposition to U.N. ambassador Susan Rice as the possible next secretary of state not only hypocritical, but McCarthy-like in rhetoric. (Snip) O’Donnell boiled the two senators criteria down to one simple fact: anyone but Rice. McCain and Graham both said that they would not support her nomination because she went on television and misrepresented the facts on the Benghazi attacks.
|
Comments: You can see exactly what direction this is taking. And the moron James Clyburn has accused the critics of Rice racist so they´ve got that area covered. This is going to get very ugly.

Not one single word about the glaring truth that Senator Joseph McCarthy was right as was completely supported by the venona decrypts.
Lawrence O donnel´s ignorance is complete.

OK, I get the rules. You can be as dirty, and vile, and racist, and sexist as you want to be if you are a Demon-RAT. That is just ´´playing tough´´.
But if you are a Republican, you have to ´´play nice´´ all the time.
Forget that. I say we get in the gutter and be every bit as vile and evil as the Demon-RATS. I´m tired of ´´playing nice´´. We all know where nice guys finish. Apparently it´s the same for nice political parties...

Beat them at their own game. Say that the ambassador appears to have been ignored or even targeted because of his rumored sexual orientation. Say it was known that the locals were offended and that he may have been offered up by the administration, which may not itself be homophobic but may have given in to the feelings of the locals (pandering, if you will), who did not want their guns coming from such a man. See, that´s how the Dems would do it.

No one listens to Lawrence O´Donnell. Were it not were for his blatant bias and prejudice to go along with his stupid rants, even the left wing media, like Dan Abrams´ mediaite.com, would pay any attention.
McCain and Graham criticizing Susan Rice is certainly not the same as what he views as McCarthyism. At least McCarthy was correct about the Communists in our midst. Susan Rice merely toed the line and lied as instructed by her boss.
It was humorous when O´Donnell questioned why Romney didn´t enlist and go to Viet Nam. He never asked the same of Bill Clinton, or of Lawrence O´Donnell, for that matter.

There are only two possible scenarios here.
1. Susan Rice was briefed by the administration and the CIA that the Benghazi attacks were the result of a spontaneous protest against an unknown film clip no one has seen. And that that is the official position of the Administration and the US.
2. Susan Rice knew the attack was Al Queada but was instructed to say otherwise, or chose to say otherwise against the information she had been briefed with.
In scenario one she is simply incompetant, accepting verbatim a briefing that defied both the logic of the situation and the already known and publicised facts on the ground. In short she was simply a toady in blnders parroting whatever her puppetmasters told her. Not a strong recomendation for SecState.
In scenario 2 she was well aware of the reality and chose to lie to the American public and the world leadership, in blatant denial of the facts as they were known and most likely on the orders of the President or Jarrett. That disgusting behaviour would definitely be the death knell for any high office hopes in a rational world.
In short the administrations complete defense is either We´re incompetant (holder and the F&F e-mails), or we´re lying (Pick any of a dozen). The Obama Administration has used this excuse at least a dozen times and the press continues to allow them to get away with it. How long would a republican last floating the I´m not corrupt just incompetant excuse?

Don´t back down. Tell the truth. Pursue the truth. Throw it back at them. let ´em hurl the invective.
Ask them then, Don´t you care about the truth? Don´t you care about the FOUR men who died brutally? How about the dozens of injured? How about the US property?
How about for once, you dolts on the Left, YOU look at something other than skin color? You´re the racists. Wait! they are ideologues! For we have seen how viciously they treat minority Conservatives/Republicans.
Oh yeah. Those lefties are lousy hypocrites.

McCain and Graham? I guess he´s not mad at Ayotte?
Notice how they keep skipping her. She doesn´t fit into the War on Women narrative. Two old white men are the perfect targets for the scam.
And guess what, the Obama electorate is just stupid enough to buy it.

Why do you guys prop up O´Donnell and MSNBC by constantly posting their stuff -- you only increase their ratings and then they turn around and slap us all in the face. I refuse to watch, read, or listen to any more liberal media. And, no, I didn´t read this article..just posted.

The Obama regime is turning up the racist heat when they don´t get their way. According to the regime, McCain and Graham are two "old White Guys" beating up on a black woman. This is what Obama´s "Hope and Change" will be bringing us for another 4 years. I hope the selfish idiot low-information voters are proud of this.

In 2007, then Senator Barack Obama appeared on CNN´s Larry King Live and called on U.S. Attorney General Alberto Gonzales to resign. Obama said Gonzales was acting more like the president´s attorney than the people´s attorney and viewed himself as an "enabler of the administration." "Well, I voted against Alberto Gonzales confirmation for precisely the reason we are seeing now. I said this on the floor of the senate, that although he seemed to be a capable attorney, he seemed to conceive his role as being the president´s attorney instead of being the people´s attorney," Obama said.

MARK LEVIN: So why didn´t Chairman Issa hold an investigative hearing a year ago? Why didn´t Chairman Camp, all Republicans, hold an investigative hearing a year ago, and all the other tripping over themselves right now? I´ll tell you why. Because the establishment Republicans, the RINO Republicans, despise the Tea Party. They despise the conservative movement. We exist to be managed, to be shuttled to the polling place, to vote for their candidates. The Karl Roves of the world, and all the rest of them. They fight us in the primaries, they fight us at the grassroots.

The way to prevent abortionists like convicted murderer Kermit Gosnell from occurring again is to build more Planned Parenthood clinics, Rep. Jerrold Nadler (D-N.Y.) said at a House Judiciary Subcommittee hearing on Thursday about legislation that would prevent abortion after 20 weeks nationwide. “I would urge my colleagues to think about the extent to which he, Dr. Gosnell, represented the poor quality of health care services available in poorer communities,” Nadler said at the Subcommittee on the Constitution and Civil Justice hearing. “We should be working to make sure that high quality

House Speaker John A. Boehner on Thursday flatly ruled out chances of the House passing the Senate’s immigration bill, saying his chamber will debate its own bill instead. The Ohio Republican and his top lieutenants in the party issued a joint statement that seemed designed to tamp down some of the momentum behind the Senate bill, which emerged from a committee on a bipartisan 13-5 vote this week, and to stake out a House GOP position. “While we applaud the progress made by our Senate colleagues, there are numerous ways in which

During friendly questioning from Rep. Hank “I fear that Guam will capsize!” Johnson in Congress last week, Attorney General Eric Holder offered the following statement. In regard to potential prosecution of the press for the disclosure of material. This is not something I’ve ever been involved in, heard of, or would think would be wise policy. He made that statement before the facts about the sweep on Fox News’ James Rosen were known. Since then, it’s come to light that Holder himself approved the subpoena that, among other things, named Rosen as a criminal co-conspirator.

As the saying goes, scratch a liberal and you’ll find a tyrant underneath. NY Gov. Andrew Cuomo is but the latest example. He shoved a very restrictive and ill-considered gun law through the state legislature in the dead of night. Among its flaws, the law criminalized police officers who tote firearms with magazines that hold more than seven rounds. Sheriffs around the state have objected to the law. Cuomo summoned them to the state capitol under what appears to be a false pretext, and used the meeting to threaten them into silence. Cuomo invited

The National Council of La Raza (translation: The Race) has partnered with the Office of Personnel Management to encourage Hispanic activists and members to burrow into the federal government. A workshop sponsored by La Raza/The Race will take place in New Orleans on July 23, 2013. Senior Executive Service (SES) employees are federal government employees in special executive management positions, often with salaries approaching $200,000 per year (and well past that with benefits). OPM, a federal government agency, is cooperating and partnering

When you get right down to it, the political targeting and stalling of tax-exempt applications by the IRS was an effort to defund the Tea Party. Rick Santelli, one of the Tea Party founders and my CNBC colleague, was the first to make this point. I’ve taken it a step further: The IRS was taking the Tea Party out of play for the 2012 election, as it looked to avoid a repeat of 2010 and another Tea Party landslide.There are a lot of numbers out there.

Very excited to graduate for my master´s degree in Chicano studies! You´re never too old or too busy to continue your education!" the actress wrote on her Who Say site Wednesday, sharing loads of pics of her big day, posing with her family, cohorts and diploma.

Conservative radio host Mark Levin is very skeptical of the idea that President Obama had absolutely no idea about the IRS tea party targeting before the story broke in the news mere weeks ago. Levin declared adamantly that it is a “flat-out, bald-faced lie” that Obama didn’t know beforehand, citing prior reports by a few conservative news outlets picking up on the news well before the 2012 presidential election. Levin said, “I don’t believe for two seconds that Obama wasn’t aware of this.”

President Obama on Thursday nominated Victoria Nuland, a State Department official involved in the editing of the administration´s talking points on Benghazi, to be the next assistant secretary of state for European and Eurasian affairs. Nuland, a career foreign service officer who was until recently State´s top spokesperson, had long been expected to be nominated the post to replace Philip Gordon, who Obama picked to serve as Middle East coordinator for the National Security Council. Nuland´s nomination -- which requires Senate confirmation -- could come under scrutiny from Republicans who see her as playing a central role in shaping

The fact that this bit of information was conveyed to the protesters by a Department of Homeland Security officer who was also in attendance.

Anthony Weiner’s New York mayoral candidacy was only made more improbable today after he revealed that he visited a Houston psychiatric facility following his resignation from Congress in 2011. Haunted by scandal surrounding his sexually explicit online communications with women, the Democratic former congressman sought treatment for his compulsive behavior from mental health professionals at the Gabbard Center. According to its website, the facility provides “3-day outpatient psychiatric evaluation,” particularly to “professionals who are in personal or professional crises.” While Weiner did not disclose

On “Fox News Sunday” last weekend, White House aide Dan Pfeiffer was asked about President Barack Obama’s whereabouts the night of the Sept. 11 attack in Benghazi. This was the night when we lost our first ambassador in 30 years, and when three other Americans were killed in an attack that lasted all night long at multiple locations within the eastern Libyan city. Since the president is commander in chief, one would think where he was and what he did during such an event would be of obvious public concern.
