RealClearPolitics Video ^ | MAy 8, 2013

Rep. Elijah Cummings (D-MD), ranking member of the House Oversight Committee, tells Benghazi witnesses that "death is a part of life."

CUMMINGS: And, as I listen to your testimony I could not help but think of something that I said very recently -- two years ago now -- in a eulogy for a relative. I said that death is a part of life....

This guy has a hard drive at about 10 GB...and RAM at about 5

Why he's elected year after year...is telling us what we are up against.

The demoncrats are soulless creatures who provide nothing but affronts to what used to be common human decency. When will we have had enough of this? When will our military have had enough? The time for reckoning is fast approaching and I no longer think that it will be the result of an election.

You are right. It is no longer possible to defeat these animals by peaceful means.

Luckily, the founders of this nation were geniuses. We have the second amendment to keep the animals somewhat at bay and if we relinquish that...each and every one of us deserves the misery which follows. Innocents killed by the leftist vermin will fortunately be rewarded with something far better than an Earthly country.

You know what's REALLY interesting? Surprised that nobody has mentioned this so far...

Ambassador Chris Stevens was a homosexual and yet Conservatives are still outraged by his murder....while leftists couldn't give a rats ***.

They only pretend to care about "human rights" when they can somehow blame their enemies and use the political brainwashing to dominate over and destroy anyone and everyone they can. This is why they are in a tentative alliance with Muslims: mutual goal of indiscriminate annihilation of all life and goodness on Earth

Undeniable proof that leftists are 100% pure evil. Some accuse them of "catering to politically correct victim groups" but the fact of the matter is that they don't even care about those. The ONLY thing that interests leftists is being as freakin evil as they possibly can 24/7.

I really don't understand why we still treat them like humans. They are NOT human. They and all the subhumans who voted them in are worthless and have no right to live.

Would Cummings have said this, say during the Warren Hearings, investigating the Kennedy assasination? “Death is a part of life,” so what does it matter who killed Kennedy? Or how about in the Medger Evers murder? Or the Malcom X murder investigation?

Un-Fricking-Believable!

Par for the course today.. FOUR!!!! (Dead Americans in Benghazi. o plays thru)

If you add in Fast & Furious, you can bump the number of Dead Americans to 6, and the number of dead innocent Mexican citizens is approaching ONE THOUSAND (last I heard was in excess of 800)

I’m reminded of the motto of the Hitlerjugend.
“Born to die.”

Islam wants it’s followers to die for allah,
socialists want their followers to die for the State.
Liberals want everyone else to die for the state.

I thought he was quoting from Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith, from that “death is a natural part of life” spiel Yoda was giving Anakin.

I cannot believe this, hearing it several times today on national talk.

More embarrassment for MD, and for me since this jerk is my rep.

I was listening when he said that. My ethos, like that of my Brother Celt, Dylan Thomas, is to "rage against the dying of light!"

Our men and women in uniform are trained, and are naturally disposed, to run to the sound of the guns. Who is the traitor who stood our ready, willing and able troops down during the course of that seven hour long massacre?

I think we all know the answer to that question, and in his own words, he must be held accountable. The blood of our patriots who fell at Benghazi demands nothing less!



"Riamh nár dhruid ó sbairn lann!"

Genuflectimus non ad principem sed ad Principem Pacis!

Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from far; The LORD hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother hath he made mention of my name. (Isaiah 49:1 KJV)

Maloney lost her mind when her husband was killed by a black racist Colin Ferguson, on a subway train.

That qualified her to get elected as a Democrat to Congress.
Just goes to prove that being a crazy person qualifies you to become Democrat politician. Anyone who has heard Kucinich and McKinney at their “best” know exactly what I mean.

What does it matter? Death is part of life. Get used to it. Obama won. Resistance is futile.

With Obama as President it's not just Party before Country, it's Color before Country.

Democrats are the most bigoted group of Reptiles, from the Head to the tip of the Tail.
