(2,049 posts)This is a perfect example of what the Dems get wrong; the message. We had this failing already with the ACA. We sat back and let them describe it as a socialist rationing plan to kill granny and they got away with it because the Dems, including the admin, didn't publicly disagree with that assessment and fight back. If i see someone come up to you, call you a thief, slap your face and walk away, and you are just standing there looking at the ground, I'm gonna suspect that there's something to the charge. That's what happened with the ACA, we didn't fight back, and the half-awake masses took that as a guilty plea.
The administration is not in the best position to do it yet, but the rest of the dems should be shouting down the media with the truth of the Benghazi matter, instead we're all just sitting here letting the bogus charges stick. Rice told what SHE was told, period. There was a CIA operation going on. Since when do we come out right after something like that, a criminal act is committed and before anyone is caught we tip them off as to everything we know? It doesn't work that way. They have nothing on the president about Benghazi.
As for giving up Rice and then they will be done? laughable. That would be the starting gun for the rabid right.
