We have our own problems in this country with "raving fundamentalists," as was demonstrated yesterday by the Republicans on the "Get Hillary on Benghazi No Matter What Committee."

I think the GOPers, in a way, provided Mrs. Clinton with the opportunity of the first real presidential debate. She is formidable in an adversarial venue in ways that her GOPer competitors are not. Except she wasn't "debating" a candidate for POTUS. It's hard to imagine Trump, Carson, JEB or any of the other GOP potentials scoring points against her in a debate but we'll have to wait and see. Her knowledge and command of international facts is certainly impressive. |

Well, she was pressed pretty hard, harder than she would be by reporters or by any of the GOPer wannabes, and her performance was close to flawless. She'll have a lot of fun with the two know-nothings, Trump and Carson, and will easily handle any of the others. |

That was the problem with the hearings. They were trying to make bad policy a criminal matter. It is as stupid as saying Dick Cheney should be hauled into the dock for his bad policy decisions. If we did that Sudan could charge Bill Clinton for murder in his aspirin factory bombing. |

It is hard to understand where you are going with these brain farts. Are you saying the policies in North Africa were sound? Are you saying bad policy is a criminal matter? Are you saying they didn't bomb an aspirin factory and kill an innocent night watchman? |

And I don't for a moment believe that "bad policy decisions" were the reason for Cheney's helping to lie us into two unnecessary wars that required massive numbers of American troops on the ground. |

The "lie" may be faulty intelligence but it would not be the first time it happened and it won't be the last. It is still a policy decision. That was a decision supported by the current front runner on the Democratic ticket, the UN and most of our allies, some of whom fed us the flawed intel in the first place. . I have never even heard the allegation that Afghanistan was a lie, that is all you. The problem there is Democrats were saying that was the "good war" and encouraging Bush to go bigger. The reality was we missed OBL in Tora Bora and we should have left as quietly as we entered. |
