Something stunning that I just heard about Benghazi from Geraldo (of all people!)

33. And this is what pisses me off more than anything!

You are exactly right.

In their rabid effort to dig and dig--and find something on which to trip Obama--they unearthed the fact that they were wrong, impulsive, reckless and that Obama was not the villain that they painted him to be.

In fact, quite the opposite is true.

I watched a lot of Fox News during the Benghazi unfolding. I watched hours of Sean Hannity, O' Reilly and the rest of the peanut gallery accusing President Obama of covering up an Al Queda attack and saying that he did it for political gain.

The political implications of this are enormous!

Right-wing radio spent weeks on this. They repeatedly said that Obama "wasn't being straight with the American people" and painted Obama as an opportunist who would lie to the American people about Benghazi in order to increase his poll numbers.

It's just revolting! These people affected the Presidential polls! The Republicans used this issue to suggest that Obama was lazy, and unwilling to get to the bottom of Benghazi because he just didn't have the will or the energy to do it. They claimed--The Middle East was on fire, Syria is a battlefield---and it is because of Obama's failures--and they used Benghazi to suggest that Obama's cover up is symptomatic of other foreign-policy failures.

So now, we find out that the underlying suppositions of their arguments were nothing but PURE BALDERDASH!

It's just so SICK that these political vampires are allowed to rum rampant in destructive toddler mode--and then when the truth is unearthed, do they really get to say, "Oh never mind..." and just slink away???

They'll be on to the next destructive rumor and conspiracy theory in a few hours I bet!

We need to use this situation to demonstrate how unfit for command Romney is (after all, he touted their nonsense)!

Unbelievable, if the Republicans and Romney get a free pass after they spent a month spewing LIES!
