King would know about doing nothing right.

Joy. Congressman King, the GOP’s leading surveillance-state advocate, shoots off his mouth again.

Why they didn’t have all those people wearing radio collars, he’ll never understand.

In my opinion, the only thing King does is count his bribe money, kiss Democrat butt, and upon request perform fellatio on Democrats. He has no justification to criticize anyone.

Why is this a Congressional matter?

“I hate to be, you know, the Monday morning quarterback, but it appears as if they’ve done nothing right so far,” King said.”

Said the renowned aeronautical expert. Isn’t it amazing that once you become a member of Congress you become an expert on just about everything.

Mic, Lights, Camera, non-Action?

"King is the chairman of the House committee that deals with counterterrorism and intelligence issues...

...and an unapologetic past supporter of the Irish Republican Army.

“Congress baffled”

Stop right there. That’s all you need to know. About anything and Congressional competence regarding it.

Rep Peter King: Malaysia "done nothing right so far"

King shows yet again that he is a maroon, as are many of the media personalities mouthing off. The combined military budgets of Russia, China and the US are $1T, compared to Malaysia's $5B, roughly 200x its number. Sigint, satellite recon and so on have yielded bupkis. The idea that anybody else could have done better is risible. Remember the media circus surrounding Jessica Lynch? That was way worse. Unlike the Lynch circus, this is a bona fide mystery. The government is trying to provide answers where none exists. Nobody knows what people really want to know - what happened to the plane.

No kidding.

They now admit that they knew the plane continued to fly for hours but decided to search where it was convenient.

I agree with you that they are a bunch of corrupt morons, but in ways that have nothing to do with this incident. The media are doing a lot of hand-waving over something the government has no control over - where the plane finally ended. They are providing ad hoc answers to a question they cannot answer. Remember the Jessica Lynch fiasco? That was far worse than this, and a lot of the answers were knowable.

My thoughts exactly. Like he knows anything about anything but lining his pockets and being a sleazeball politician.

The plane will surface when it is used as a missle on some target and them all the sucka## media outlets and the criminal politicians will rejoice, “there it is” see we told you we would find it!
