Personally I feel that the Select Committee now in the process of being formed, to really investigate the murders is absolutely essential. I hope that the committee is run by a prosecutor, and that all the political posturing and posing by the Congresspersons will not be permitted.  It must be a search for the truth, nothing more, nothing less.

We know with sublime certainty that the tragedy was a screw up of cosmic proportions. Now we must find out why it happened, we must know exactly who screwed up and how. We have to know all of that so that we can prevent it from happening again.  We must find out if the Secretary of State put in place appropriate security measures, sufficient personnel, and appropriately managed those security measures in this growing time of hate and disresp ect for the United States in the world.

Now there is no question but that the public was misled by the Team Obama “talking points”.  Now we must learn if that misinformation was simply a screw up or if it was it an intentional plot to mislead the public. Now, the evidence suggests that it was the latter given that the presidential election was just around the corner, and that the murders strongly and urgently suggested that Team Obama’s braggadocios claims that AQI etc., were on the wane were nothing but male bovine excrement. We must know if the misstatements of fact were lies that were authorized by Obama and/or by Clinton. There is a huge difference between intentional lies and simple errors.

As it stands now, Hillary Clinton, then Secretary of State, must shoulder most of the responsibility for the tragedy. The consulate was her turf, its security was her responsibility. Even if you choose to discount the very strong likelihood that she purposefully lied about the tragedy, it is nearly impossible to deny that the tragedy was caused by incompetence and/or a politically motivated decision not to appropriately secure the facility so as to present a “friendly face” to the Libyans. And to suggest to the American public that Team Obama’s policies were working. It’s likely that if the truth had been revealed at the time of the murders, Obama would not have been reelected.

Clinton’s role in the entire affair will determine if she is worthy or even capable of leading our nation.

A White House official with fingerprints all over the affair recently said on national TV dismissing the importance of the tragedy: “Dude, it was two years ago.” Clinton infamously said: “What difference does it make…” It’s hard to imagine more callous statements about the deaths of 4 American public servants who were murdered in the service of their country.

Team Obama promised to bring the murderers to “justice.” Since then one of the murderers was interviewed on TV by an American journalists in a friendly country. The subject, purportedly the leader, told the CNN interviewer: “Even the investigative team  (FBI) did not try to contact me.” The murderers are still free. Even though Team Obama is desperate to have the investigation “just go away”, it must not.

Part 2) What follows is a direct cut and paste from an article in the NATIONAL JOURNAL written by an ardent supporter of Democare. It chronicles a recent poll by the WASHINGTON POST and ABC. The author of the article is Ron Fournier.

By a two-to-one margin, more people think the quality of care they receive is getting worse rather than better under Obamacare (29 percent to 14 percent). A majority says the quality has stayed the same.

By a two-to-one margin, more people think the nation’s health care system is getting worse, not better (44 percent to 24 percent). Less than a third say the quality of U.S. health care is about the same.

Nearly half of Americans say their personal health care costs are increasing under Obamacare (47 percent). Just 8 percent report decreases.

A strong majority say the over all costs of the U.S. health care system are increasing (58 percent). Just 11 percent see decreases.

Deer Friends, please consider carefully that Fournier, the author, is a strong supporter of Democare. Make no mistake about it, the mid terms are going to be a referendum on Democare and Obama.

Part 3) It looks like petroleum company bashing is coming into vogue again. I respectfully suggest that the bashers, before they can have any credibility, must get rid of their vehicles, all vehicles including bikes, because not a single one of them would be in the hot little hands of the bashers if it were not for oil. I suggest that they must move out of their houses as well, because every damned thing in and on that house got to that house because of petroleum, and/or without petroleum would not exist.. Lean-to’s and chickee huts are largely petroleum free. Mosquito repellent is verboten. I respectfully suggest that the bashers go naked, because every stich of modern clothing has chemicals in it that are petroleum products, and not a stich of their clothing could have gotten to their hot little bods without petroleum. They must forsake their computers and smart phones, TV’s, and every other electrical goody that they own or lust for. Face it bashers, our society, the world, our civilization is petroleum dependent. On the other hand we could surrender to the Muslim jihadists, return to the 13th century and live pretty much petroleum free. Come to think of it, some of the ladies I’ve seen lately would look better in a burka. Look about you, there is not a single thing that you own that could have come into your possession without petroleum. Please pass the goat.
