An ABC News reporter tried dressing down Rand Paul (R-Ky.) after the senator chided Secretary of State Hillary Clinton during todays Benghazi hearing. Curious: What is Rand Pauls foreign policy background? Did he serve in the military? Did he study, live, do business or charity overseas? tweeted Terry Moran, co-anchor of ABCs Nightline. It was Morans only tweet of the hearing.

Yes, there is no doubt in my mind that the MSM transitioned from being “biased” to “vital member of the progressive coalition” in early 2008.
One huge problem is that a lot of our R politicians refuse to acknowledge the fact.
For all you old Lucianne posters:
I just found out Terry Moron used to post as motp on Lucianne.com many years ago until he was outed. He then slithered away...
What a troll that guy was...
This is my official fatwa on the issue.
It’s such a wrong headed view that you need “experience” in foreign policy. That is essentially our problem. Our diplomats and politicans are so grounded in the sensitivites of the other countries and alliances, that they forget their true mission.
They are supposed to love, understand, and support the American nation and constitution. If you are well-grounded in that, it is almost impossible for a foreigner to cheat you.
The problems occur when worry about offending them by not following their protocol. In a proper foreign policy, an American knowing nothing about nation X should do fine. Treat them with friendship and open honesty. No secret deal behind hidden treaty crap. Let the whole world know we consider them to be a friend. Then nation X needs only to worry about being honest with us. If they are not, then they have lost or friendship.
In the recent wars, we let some nations loudly abuse us verbally, while secretly supporting us. Their meager assistance is not worth the price. If they will not support us openly, they are a snake in the grass.
The Queen of England should be told, “this is an American President” Americans do not bow to, or recognize royal courtly behavior.
A Saudi King should be told, “do not try to walk holding hands with an American president, you might insult him. Americans think you look like a homosexual”.
When you treat someone fairly, and stand by your own principals, you show them TRUE respect. When you grovel and kiss ass, and have woman ambassadors wear a headrag, etc, you are being disrespectful.
You only treat savages that condescending way so you do not frighten or upset that lesser people, who think an eclipse is the moon eating the sun,,etc.
When we used to think and act that way, Americans were respected and largely unmolested around the world.
“Experience” means buying into the elitist new world order crap that America is just one nation, no better than any other.
What did Obama Know about foreign policy outside of the Liberal mantra of White People bad, colored people good?
Rand knows a heck of a lot more than the Democrat butt kissers on that committee.
Terry Moran is a GUY?
All this time, all the angst, I thought only a chick could whine like that.
And I am a chick, I can use that term. :-)
Dodging sniper fire in Bosnia, remember?
What does Terry Moran know about reporting? All I’ve ever seen out of this Propagandist is regurgitation of talking points spoon fed him by the White Hut.
What experience does he have?! We can’t have an eye doctor run the country! This is ridiculous! There are much better wise overlords on the Democrat side...
And just who is this reporter to question what Rand knows about foreign policy????
Duh. Rand Paul is on the Foreign Relations Senate Committee. He more than qualified to analyze the situation as anyone on that committee.
You don't have to know diddly about Foreign Policy to recognize executive fail staring you in the face.
A helluva lot more than one Baraq Hussein 0bama and Hitlery Rodham klinton COMBINED!
Don’ t forget his childhood in Indonesia, his expert handling of the embassy attack in Benghazi, directing the OBL hit from a golf cart, and supplying Mexican drug cartels with weapons.
Obama and Hilliary are complete failures. What does Clinton do to start the meeting off? She talks about how damn busy she was on 9/11, and; then proceeds to make excuse after excuse. We are supposed to, according to this witch, give muslims in North Africa a chance to develop their newly formed democracies. Well, we next heard that this nation has no frigging idea where Ghadaffi’s chemical weapons and other weapons of mass destruction are such as his nerve gas. Now, it was Obozzo who decided to help over throw Ghadaffi, so; it was his damn job to ensure those weapons were secured. This entire three ring circus of this Admin is inexcusable. Not a single LT, much a general, would not be relieved for the incompetence Clinton and Obama displayed. Both Clinton and Zero damn sure knew that the ambassador had asked for help/reinforcements time after time, but; she, like Obozzo, blames the Republicans in Congress for not giving them enough money? It is always money with these damn LIBS. Sorry to inform them that no amount of money will help totally incompetent people. Being a Secretary of State and flying 1 million million miles means zip as those men were killed because of your incompetence.
Aww, aren’t these O-bot presstitutes precious...
They’ve suddenly decided to play “vet the politician.”
We know that Obama is pro-Islamist and anti-Israel, that is as easy to see. Hillary is involved with Huma Abedin (Mrs. Weiner) in some way, obviously she is a water-carrier for the Muslim Brotherhood (no, I didn’t go there).
Someone told the military to stand down, who was it? Why isn’t the media is a fury over this? If this were Bush or even (dare I say it?) Clinton, the TV would be awash with foreign policy types and pundits RAILING about incompetence and resignations. Not with the Kenyan Marxist, they are choirboys who toe the company line, with no criticism and willful omission of actual facts as to not indict Obama.
The press is corrupt and wants the downfall of America via the Jihadists and the Liberal economic collapse (Cloward & Piven), they fancy themselves the new elite Pravda who will let the “masses” (to quote Andrea Mitchell) know the “right” news as they chatter on ObamaPhones, get their ObamaCare at the clinic and work at a unionized, make-work Government job.
It’s all there, Comrade, and Soros and the Dem mad hatters are pushing the Global Marxism as fast as they can. Complicit media, low-information voter, welfare state...
Moron visited a ladyboy in Thailand.
he has experience.
Excellent. I agree completely.
Apparently just being in the White House a few years makes you qualified to be President. So that means that this fellow below is qualified to be our next President.
and when exactly did SHE serve in the military? Oh yeah, she did take sniper fire, I forgot, silly me!
= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = =
Well she did try to join the Corps BUT they weren’t interested in Strong, Self Sufficient Women.
As to ‘taking’ sniper fire, I think she did ‘fluff’ it off (after much ridicule, mostly from the people that were with her) by saying “It was a big airport, there were rebels around, and they supposedly sprayed part of the airport, maybe, but they coulda woulda shoulda if they had know such an intelligent person as myself was in country” (not quite an exact quote BUT we are dealing with D’s here so it could be word for word for word and, if not to their liking, they would deny deny deny”.
