OK, Benghazi was talked about in hearing already, right? Decisions made, right?

Then why are the Republicans still beating a dead horse! I go to watch the news, or go to a news site, and there they are! That horse is never going to get up! Enough all ready, it is D-E-A-D, DEAD!! Like Trickle Down Economics! GONE!


Can we get to real problems like, oh IDK, helping the many people living under the poverty line, reinstating the WPA, freezing prices and upping the minimum wage. Things like that?

There used to be a brief period of time where the media would actually cover the main national and international events

The problem is that unless there is something new or revealing, THIS ISN"T NEWS. This is what happens when the new industry has turned into the entertainment industry.

If I watch the television for news I will only watch Bloomberg for national and international news, and local news weather and sports. All the rest are a waste of time

There is no doubt in my mind they are scared out of their minds that Hillary will be the candidate. If she is, there is no doubt in my mind that she will win

The repukes are running scared, and these thugs are as repuke as they come
