We all need to thank him for his courage and encourage him to continue holding their feet to the fire since no one else seems to want to do it. His DC phone message box is full, but I was able to get through to his main KY office and also sent him an email.

“”Anybody remember when Hillary/Bill hired a friend of theirs who’s resume consisted of being a nightclub BOUNCER””

Yes, I do but I sure don’t remember his name.. They threw him under the bus as I recall.

I didn’t get to watch 100% of the morning SHOW, but I didn’t hear her say, “I don’t remember”, “I don’t recall”, “I have no memory of that” which I expected. Maybe the questions will be tougher with the House Committee this afternoon and we’ll see some of that. Hopefully the questions will be tough and she’ll lose her cool AGAIN!

The Susan Rice debacle exposes the conspiracy and collusion of the Obamatons as they mulled over, "Wadda we do now that five Americans have been killed"

Tossing Rice a millstone and sending her to Sunday talk shows to tell The Big Lie WRT Benghazi proved to be the coupe d'etat----as Rice sank to the bottom of the Secy of State pool.

FALLOUT Fem libs musta lacerated Obama for forgetting himself and rushing to "rescue" a damsel in distress under Repub attack.

Fems don't like to see "manly" stuff inflicted on independent women.

BTW, was Susan at the inaug? (/snix)

RE :”Thanks for posting that video. Senator Rand Paul was superb in questioning Hillary. She as usual side stepped any responsibility. Whitewater redux.”

Hillary :’I take full responsibility even though I did nothing wrong and made no mistakes. It was those holdover Bush appointees that screwed everything up. I warned the President to can them but he is just too nice a guy for his own good’

Anybody remember when Hillary/Bill hired a friend of theirs who’s resume consisted of being a nightclub BOUNCER to head up security for the White House??

Yes, his name was Craig Livingston. He was a thug from their Arkansas days and he was the one who acquired the hundreds of FBI files on their political enemies.

The official line, accepted without question by the watchdog media, was that nobody knew who hired him. He just sorta showed up one day in the White House offices and got to work.

How is it possible that the Secretary of State does not know if we are shipping arms from Libya to other countries in the region? That statement alone should be grounds for her dismissal.

There aint’ no crying in Congress. If you can’t control your emotions there how can anyone trust your judgement anywhere? I would have demanded her resignation just as I would have demanded Powell’s resignation on September 11, 2001

The ruling class consists of the self appointed ELITE, and they are all above the law.

It’s noting but second rate kibuki theater with the hegemony’s top whore in review.

As good as his question were, she just blew them off and didn’t give any information about where she was during the attack, was she watching it in real time, where Obama was and why the orders to have the Marines that died to STAND DOWN during the attack.

IOW, Ryan failed. No one wants those questions to be answered.

No one ever raised the possibility to Hillary that Turkey was involved with some type of transaction involving Stevens. She does not even know that Stevens was meeting with Turkish officials just hours before the attack ? Should not the entire Turkish incident been a significant part of any investigation of Benghazi ? Our leaders are beyond useless and they are gonna get many of us killed.
