(9,729 posts)Nothing like a little diversion to quell outrage. Not that there would have been any Repuke outrage anyway. By the way, Grenada is 133 square miles. Most US counties are bigger than that.

This is a stretch. Plus an admission that something bad happened there and maybe a tacit admission that we still don't know the whole story because it is being kept from us. Just saying.

A "stretch" - a STRETCH?! just saying Bwah-ha-HAH. What part of FOUR (4) dead is oomparable to TWO FUCKING HUNDRED FORTY ONE dead is a FUCKING STRETCH?!

My point is that the death of the Marines has zero to do with whatever happened in Libya. It's a diversion from the issue and the point. Plus, we KNOW what happened in Beirut because it was covered and exposed and written about. I don't know what happened in Benghazi but they're acting like sneaks and suspiciously and that's tru no matter how many Marines were murdered. And, yes, I didn't serve. Had a high draft number.

To which I said in my inimitable Dale CARNEGIE manner:
do you really believe your DEFLECTIONS?! Who said that Beirut had something to do with Benghazi 40 yrs later?! Do you really think everybody is as stupid as your audience? The subject is how Rethugs are frothing over NOTHING and the contrast is how they immediately dismissed the Rethug regimes screw up of SIXTY TIMES the dead, the same as they ignore that their fearless Leader/Declaimer RAISED TAXES nearly a half dozen times and granted AMNESTY (gasp!) to undocumented. As Bill MAHER told a wingnut, RAYGUN wouldnt get inside the door of a TeaBagger party. All he was was a professionally trained carnival barker.
As for sneakiness vs us KNOWING EVERYTHING, I notice you arent concerned about finding out what treason RAYGUN-BUSH committed with the October Surprise, dealing with the enemy and sabotaging elections, among MANY MANY other things, and these are merely the tip of the iceberg. William CASEY was IN A COMA when CIA trained Bob WOODWARD interviewed him for a cover-up book.
This idiotic DEFLECTION you tried is exactly what I saw Tim RUSSERT pull on a caller to C-SPAN. The caller said that, despite RUSSERTs very past background as a Democratic operative, he had changed into being as much a wingnut shill as Faux Propaganda Network. Of course, they disconnected the caller, and RUSSERT replied, The caller is mistaken. I work for NBC News. I do not work for Fox News. And he said it with a self-satisfied smirk as though he had outsmarted the caller. Actually, this is a common stupidity among D.C. inmates, thinking they are smarter with IDIOTIC GIMMICKRY than everybody else.
If you are too busy, which I do believe, for commenting, just dont reply instead of sending STUPIDITY.
