I am a little surprised the Beast lied this badly, though.
BOR is a dope if he doesn’t this.
For one thing, no military commander would ever allow the First Lady to land in his area if there was any hint of sniper fire, etc.
The plane would have been diverted immediately.
If the incident had occurred anyway, there is no way the military would just continue on with the visit and engage in sing-a-longs with Sheryl Crow et al. Please! The whole group would have been out of there IMMEDIATELY.
And the chain of command would have been under investigation to ensure they did all they could to foresee and prevent the threat on the First Lady’s life.
That’s just for starters, Bill. You big dope.
The demadopes could not do a better job in giving Rush amo for yet another great show.
Chelsea said her mom misspoke because she mixed up what she saw watching 24 on the plane with what really happened on the ground.
Except that 24 wasn’t on the tube then.
True!
There would have been an immediate and HUGE investigation of the entire chain of command, just to find out how such an incident-—an attempt on the First Lady’s life-—could have happened on the command’s watch.
And there sure as hell would not have been any sing-alongs that evening.
The First Lady and her party would have been extricated from there immediately-—under fighter escort or in a tank in echelon-—and the entire base would have been locked down and on red alert until people figured out what the hell had happened and how.
At first glance you’d think Bill O’R supports Hillary, but he’s also made similarly stupid arguments for Obama. Partly, I think he bends over backwards to appear fair and balanced, but also I think he wants a ‘Rat for President, whether Hillary or Barack Hussein Obama. He and Lanny seemed to be having a love-fest at Col. Hunt’s expense, but not just Col Hunt—much more is at stake.
Aside from the military insult (now from O’R as well as Hillary), I join all those others who say, if you’ve been shot at, you’re not going to forget it. Heck, I wasn’t even exactly shot “at”—but one New Years Eve a bullet zinged by my head and lodged into the wall of my house from idiots “celebrating” by shooting randomly into the air. I will NEVER forget that. How much more so if it had been deliberate? I shudder to think.
O’Reilly has also cleimed that Hillary the Eva Peron wanna-be isn’t a socialist.
Not just that, but wouldn't we have heard about it already, seen the footage on the news at that time, the press covering an overseas trip of the First Lady?
As so many others have said, how anyone can defend this tripe, considering it is just the latest in the long line of lies she's told about her life, "I was named for Sir Edmund Hillary," "I decided at the tender age of 27 to leave a comfortable life with Bill and join the Marines," "Of course I had no insider info, I was able to turn straw into gold by studying the Wall Street Journal," etc., etc., ad infinitem, ad nauseum, is beyond my ken.
I think the Red Queen is going to be on Greta. I doubt she would ever be on with BOR..
Great cartoon. (Note: the chastity belt on Bubba. lol.)
Actually, I think this is exactly what it is rather than any left leaning desire. Same with when he dissed FR without ever reading FR. He just needed a counter part to diss and try to balance out his mediamatters/Daily Kos tirades. Somebody had obviously told him FR was a "right wing hate site" so he went with it without checking it out, all trying to look balanced. Actually, he backed off a bit and admitted FR wasn't "as bad as those others" (thanks to FR Kristen) but never did apologise for the blatent misrepresentations he originally made about the site.
Thanks. I probably misheard it, then.
Exactly.
This could never have occurred without it instantly becoming worldwide news-—then and for weeks thereafter.
Maybe he thinks there’s a workable distinction between being a socialist and a communist?
More popcorn, please...
