Of the two mentioned, why not.

When is the Democrat ticket going to get straitened out? Is the VP going to run or not. Each time I hear it the VP will tell us later. Of the candidate so far, Hillary is better than what we have today. But the VP might end up being better than Hillary.

Actual choice won't really be clear until next spring. Then the real debates can start.
 

It's laughable to think that people REALLY want to vote for inexperienced and uninformed candidates. Would you go to an accountant to have your appendix out? Would you go to a mailman to have your taxes done? I simply don't understand this nonsense of wanting to elect incompetent people.. This is the office of the President of the United States we are talking about. I want someone who has some experience and knowledge of how things work.. Not some schmuck who is playing with Maslow's Hierarchy and working on the self aggrandizement level.. It's ludicrous and it's foolhardy..
 
Perhaps there is a desperation to vote for anyone who spouts the right stuff, regardless of ability, in a frenzied attempt to block a Democratic president in the next election. As time goes on, paranoia seems to be the name of the game.

Yes... that too.. along with the misguided belief that it's best to "Know nothing"... Education and experience are maligned in favor of people that can appear as ignorant as the electorate by spouting the same bigoted and distasteful remarks they wish they could say. It's sad to know that these candidates are speaking the views and thoughts of the Republican base.
 
No Evidence of Wrongdoing

More here.

Democrats on the House Select Committee on Benghazi have released a damning 124-page report that finds no evidence of wrongdoing by Hillary Clinton, but a mountain of proof that the Republican-led investigation is a partisan sham.


According to the Democrat Staff Report on the Select Committee:


In stark contrast to these baseless political attacks, the 54 individuals who have now been interviewed by the Select Committee have identified:

– no evidence that Secretary Clinton ordered the military to stand down on the night of the attacks;


– no evidence that Secretary Clinton personally approved or ordered a reduction of security in Benghazi prior to the attacks;


– no evidence that Secretary Clinton pressed the United States into supporting the United Nations campaign in Libya under false pretenses;


– no evidence that Secretary Clinton or her aides oversaw an operation at the State Department to destroy or scrub embarrassing documents;


– And no evidence that Secretary Clinton or any other U.S. official directed or authorized the U.S. Mission in Benghazi to transfer weapons from Libya to another country.


The evidence obtained by the Select Committee also corroborates previous testimony to Congress indicating that Secretary Clinton was deeply engaged during and after the attacks and took action to ensure the safety and security of U.S. personnel, even as intelligence assessments of the attacks changed more than once during this period.

The report exposed the political intentions of the House Select Committee on Benghazi. For example, the Republican-led committee has not held a single hearing with a member of the Department of Defense on Benghazi and has conducted nearly ten times as many interviews with State Department employees as they have with Department of Defense employees (27-4).


The investigation into the investigators also found that Chairman Gowdy’s (R-SC) claim that the Select Committee is not focused on Hillary Clinton to be completely false, “The Select Committee has been engaged in an aggressive press campaign focused almost entirely on Secretary Clinton, issuing 27 press releases related to Secretary Clinton since March, but only 5 on all other topics combined. Chairman Gowdy has referenced Secretary Clinton more than 50 times in nationally televised interviews since March.”

​
​
One of the witness interviews debunked the Republican claim that Clinton issued a stand down order.The former spokesperson for the Bureau of Near Eastern Affairs testified:

​
Q: It has been alleged that Secretary of State Clinton intentionally blocked military action on the night of the attacks. One Congressman has speculated that, quote, “Secretary Clinton told Leon Panetta to stand down,” end quote, and this resulted in the Defense Department not sending more assets to help in Benghazi. Do you have any evidence that Secretary of State Clinton ordered Secretary of Defense Panetta to stand down on the night of the attacks?

A: No.Q: Do you have any evidence that Secretary of State Clinton issued any kind of order to Secretary of Defense Panetta on the night of the attacks? A: No.

​
The report reveals that Clinton did nothing wrong and that the House Select Committee on Benghazi is nothing more than a partisan stunt that is designed to destroy the frontrunner for the Democratic nomination.The evidence is laid out over the course of 124 brutal pages.

Republicans have lied to the American people about the purposes and intentions of this committee. House Republicans have wasted millions of taxpayer dollars on an investigation that is finding nothing new.The only evidence of wrongdoing found is on the Republican side of the aisle.

The investigation into Hillary Clinton’s emails under the pretense of Benghazi is an illegal use of taxpayer funds for partisan political purposes.Benghazi has backfired and now Republicans are paying the price for their brazen abuses of power.
​
 
The best part of the interview with Jeb was that if GW was NOT responsible for the attack on the World Trade Center.. HOW is Clinton and Obama responsible for the attack on a consulate half way around the world in Benghazi. He didn't have a good answer... More proof this is a Republican witch hunt.
 
[h=1]Cummings Responds to Explosive New Report on Chairman Gowdy’s Links to Stop Hillary PAC (HRC GROUP)[/h]Rep. Elijah Cummings, Ranking Member, Select Committee on Benghazi:

Today, the Washington Post reported on newly discovered links between Rep. Trey Gowdy, the Chairman of the House Select Committee on Benghazi, and Stop Hillary PAC, which describes itself as “created for one reason only—to ensure Hillary Clinton never becomes President of the United States.”

This is the same group that last week aired a highly offensive new attack ad using images of Ambassador Stevens’ grave—without his family’s permission—and exploiting the deaths of four Americans to damage Secretary Clinton’s bid for president. Democrats have complained repeatedly about Gowdy’s connections to the group.

The Post article includes several new revelations:

Gowdy’s leadership PAC, Themis, shared the same treasurer as Stop Hillary PAC since 2013, an outspoken political operative and Clinton opponent named Dan Backer.

Backer also served as treasurer on three other PACs that each donated $2,000 to Gowdy for Congress in April. Only after being confronted with these facts by the Washington Post did Gowdy return these donations on Friday.

Just last month, STOP Hillary PAC spent $10,000 on robocalls and other efforts in support of Gowdy.

In response to this new report, Ranking Member Elijah E. Cummings issued the following statement: “These are shocking new revelations that directly contradict the promise we made to the families of the four brave Americans.”...

Oh good grief... Are these people obsessed or what?

http://www.politicususa.com/2015/10...proceedings-hillary-inauguration-day.htmlWhat a bunch of sickos

And in my judgement, with respect to Hillary Clinton, she will be a unique president if she is elected by the public next November, because the day she’s sworn in is the day that she’s subject to impeachment because she has committed high crimes and misdemeanors.

Brooks wants to launch impeachment proceedings against Hillary Clinton on Inauguration Day. There could hardly be a clearer signal that the GOP’s crusade against Hillary is politically motivated, than a member of Congress suggesting impeachment on day one of her presidency.
 
Yup, and she could be bi, just thinking as she has a thing for pantsuits...
 
If you think Benghazi has been over blown maybe you could tell us some answers to the following because I have not heard them.
In lieu of 4 dead Americans I think all Americans should know:


As Secretary of State, do you know who is responsible for security at the different American Embassy’s around the world?
If not, who's responsible for telling you such things, and did anyone get fired for the dereliction of duties for not informing you?
Where were you on that night? Were you in the war room? Where was President Obama? Was he in the war room?
Who gave the order to “Stand Down”? Were you informed of the order? If not did anyone get fired for the dereliction of duties for not informing you?

In the days leading up to the tragic events, after a 20 foot hole was blown in the Embassy’s outer wall, why was the request for additional security declined? Whose decision was it to decline the additional security requests? Were you informed of the denial? If not did anyone get fired for the dereliction of duties for not informing you?

If you think Trey Gowdy and the investigation a farce, why have the 7 or 8 investigations that have already been conducted failed to answer some basic questions? If anyone has the answers please share them with us.

Americans deserve them; especially the families of the deceased deserve answers.

Let me answer your question WITH a question..


Do you believe that George W Bush was derelict in his duties by not preventing the 9/11 attacks on the World Trade Towers? He was given briefings that an attack was imminent.. Should he have been able to prevent that attack?

If you have proof that I was imminent...Yes
All officials should be held in the same standard.
Do you have proof that was imminent or proof that President Bush stonewalled an investigation?

Go back to original question are we still searching for basic answers on Benghazi? Or do you have some? I sure haven't heard any. I tend to pay attention to these things and I'm sure you do and others here. So if none of us here have the answers for the families of the deceased let's give Trey Gowdy a chance. After all Hillary said she was looking forward to testify. Let the truth be told

George Tenet, the CIA director, knew in advance there was going to be an attack, and he said so to the president.


What I am saying IS.... IF GW wasn't responsible for the worst attack on US soil in history... with 3000 dead and countless others injured... THEN Clinton is not responsible for an attach half way around the world on some remote embassy....... PERIOD.... These hearings are NOTHING more than a political smear campaign completely designed to "Bring DOWN" Hillary Clinton. The committee should be disbanded and the RNC forced to pay the $4.5 million in taxpayer money back.
 
Hmm. Ostrich syndrome is alive and well, or perhaps the committee is looking for a miracle, aka Lucifer Son Of The Morning, appearing on Fox News in a puff of smoke, and revealing Hillary's true demonic form to the viewers? Eek! Get ready for Hallowe'en folks! Stay tuned......

The Gig is up for the GOP and their phony hearings... The entire world knows that what is long suspected is completely TRUE... and admitted as such. But like a Dog shaking a bone... they don't want to give up their scheme.. Guess we will have to let them know next November how most Americans feel about this charade.
 
Thanks for clearing everything up. I guess you were under the impression I was looking for bloviating and he said she said instead of answers.
We'll have to leave it up to Mr.Gowdy and the rule of law.
 
Also DUDE... while we are talking about the hypocrisy of Republicans concerning GW... How about this? STILL believe this Benghazi nonsense isn't a political witch hunt?
