Breitbart ^ | 5/10/2014 | Jeff Poor

Posted on 05/11/2014 1:21:53 PM PDT by Tenlein

On this weekend’s “The McLaughlin Group,” Daily Beast columnist Eleanor Clift laid out the same reasoning for the Sept. 11, 2012 terrorist attack on the U.S. consulate in Benghazi as Bill Maher had on Friday, which was to still blame the now infamous YouTube video.

Listening to Liberals and Socialists in the Democrap party talk, I keep hearing Bill Cosby saying, “Brain damaged.”

The lies are beginning. The demonization of Trey Gowdy should pick up steam this week.

"...They must be counting on the short memories of low-info voters..."

Unfortunately, that seems to be working pretty well for them.

I suspect the proximate cause of death for many who died in the original 9/11 attacks was smoke inhalation, but if may suspicion is correct, it does not change the fact they were murdered or died in an act of war by non-state actors. Likewise should Ms. Clift somehow be proven correct as to the proximate cause of Amb. Stevens’ death, it would not change the fact he was murdered or died in an act of war by non-state actors.

The latter view as an act of war, rather than murder, justifies not seeking to bring his killers to trial, just bombing, shelling or shooting them and their sponsors, while the former suggests a legal proceeding against them would be more appropriate — I think most FReepers incline to the latter view upon sober consideration, despite liking to say the victims in Benghazi (and in Washington, New York and Shanksville) were murdered, for rhetorical effect.

“If Trey Gowdy is able to get at the facts, and he seems to be a man who will try as best he can, there will be zero acceptance of those facts by the liberal base and the administration. Then what?”

Frankly, I don’t care what they think, for the same reason that I’m not terribly interested in what Charles Manson thinks. I care what independents think. They win or lose elections.

So... if I throw a Molotov cocktail into a house and the people inside die of smoke inhalation - I have NOT murdered them. Got it.

I remember her comments when it became clear that Clinton was lying and Monica Lewinsky was telling the truth. She continued to defend Clinton, saying that ‘powerful men had advanced sexual appetites’. Unbelievable. This is just more of the same from her. She is just another member of the Goebel-like propagandists with a press pass that have propped up the democrats and liberal ideology for decades now.

Democrats do. When one changes from asset to liability their time on this earth is very short. This was amply demonstrated by Bill Clinton. Now his cousin is following suit. One would think that their disciples would see this, but thus far, they haven’t.

I guess they don’t teach logical thinking in journalism (ala socialism) school.

Abe Lincoln wasn’t murdered. He died from lead poisoning.

And who set the fire that caused the smoke? Oh, that’s right, the terrorists. Care to explain that, Eleanor?
