let's take a moment to remember the benghazi "scandal"

[unblock]

remember how the republicans and the oh-so-fair media raked hillary over the coals over benghazi?

they accused her of leaving an embassy unprepared.
will they treat donnie the same after leaving america unprepared for covid-19?

they accused her of neglect and incompetence for delaying a few hours before she deemed it a "terrorist" attack.
will they treat donnie the same after delaying for months before deciding covid-19 wasn't a "hoax"?

they accused her of being responsible for the death of *four* people.
will they treat donnie the same after, already, nearly four *thousand* people have died, and he shrugs his shoulders that the number might be 50 times even that?

they insisted that this essentially disqualified her to be commander-in-chief.
will they treat donnie the same?

they held multiple investigations and spent millions and made her testify before congress.
will they treat donnie the same?


of course not. instead, they'll let him run campaign commercials free on the so-call news channels.
they'll let him plug and promote specific corporate interests while on government property.
will they call for an ethics investigation or a criminal probe?
you know damn well they would if a democrat had done that.



i'm a little bit steamed by the notion that cnn and/or msnbc deserve kudos for maybe thinking about cutting away from his daily white house campaign commercials.

if they do, they don't deserve praise. they need to be told that it's over a million dollars short and over a thousand days too late!

5. And the same people who never, ever gave Hillary the benefit of the doubt

are lecturing us how we shouldn't use many times more deaths - not in a strife torn distant land but here at home - as a "an opportunity to score cheap political points."

6. I couldn't agree more

Corporate media always goes easy on rethugs also much of the blame should go to the American voters. We all saw who he is during the campaign. Shame on America, we're getting our comeuppance.

7. Revenge, sweet revenge

I've said here before and I'll keep on saying it...when we win all three branches of govt, we must go at the repubs hammer and tong, tooth and nail, no quarter, no mercy.
It's time to crush these thugs and not look back, impeach the latest clowns on the supreme and lesser courts and increase the supreme member count so that we NEVER lose the majority on the bench again (how about Barack AND Hillary as supremes?).
Undo EVERY backward and wrongheaded move drump made and get to work on hearings to uncover the evil deeds done by trumpets, ASAP.
I figure this would take a year, (not allowing for the trials and jailing of most of them) then we can get to work on healthcare for Americans, cleaning the environment, new deal type programs, uplifting the downtrodden, educating the children etc, etc, etc....
But there will be NO seat at the table for faux news addicts, none at all.

8. We may not be able to do that right away.

The government has been hollowed out. We will need to place thousands of experts and workers in jobs that have gone unfilled. You know, the "deep state." That could take a year.

9. Because this IS a national emergency

We DRAFT the people needed to clear the baffles, some if not most Obama folks that moved aside gracefully and those that were fired by drumph plus perhaps some of the sharp minds that have been popping up on Rachel.
This is war and our army's ranks are depleted so it's "Greetings citizen" time again but this time for brain power not trigger fingers.
