In reply to the discussion: Prediction: Petraeus conspired with GOP on Benghazi to undermine Obama for Election [View all]CoffeeCat
(24,411 posts)The timing was so convenient for Republicans, during the election. And they jumped on Benghazi and tried to control the messaging so quickly. Clearly, they were out to destroy Obama with it.
I also saw the look on Hillary Clinton's face. It was more than sadness. It looked like resigned anger. She knows, better than anyone, what these mafia psychopaths are like and that no act is too terrible for them.
I believe the reason that Obama and his administration has been tight lipped--is because they are avoiding saying anything that would give the Republicans impeachment fodder. They are all insidious.
According to the Global Terrorism Database compiled by the University of Maryland National Consortium for the Study of Terrorism and Responses to Terrorism (START), there were 64 attacks on American diplomats when George W Bush was President.
These events, while tragic and horrible, happen frequently. They occur, we analyze them and move on--and hopefully figure out ways to keep our people safe.
Leave it to the evil, manipulative Republicans to take this unfortunate incident, politicize it, lie about it and float half truths and conspiracy theories around it--all so they can attack "gate" to the end of it and try to destroy a political opponent with it.
Republicans are really just the most vile and psychopathic people on the planet.
