And the RNC adopts the whole Obama is a Socialist meme.
Both sides are reaching out to their retarded base underlings that need simple memes verses comples discussions.
Personally I think Bush is incapable of lying. I also think he was incapable of having foresight, filters, leadership over his staff (Cheney/Rumsfield), or a good ideas..but he was a "good guy" overall...
Kinda guy you would have a beer with
but not one you would want running the nation.
which was my issue with him personally...he was barely even existant..a mouthpiece for Karl Rove and company's agenda...and I don't like Karl's agenda.

You can dissmiss others as being mindless, shills, but cannot I say the same thing about you? I've actually not accused you of any such behavior yet I wonder why you jump on me with this? Some form of projection? I like polite discourse and ask you to do the same. Is that so difficult?
ONe can say that Obama is the frontman of Soros or Axelrod or Jarrett. I don't like any of their agendas either.

Please show me where I singled you out...
are you the RNC?
If you however believe Obama is a socialist, then you do not understand the term.
Although there are many different sub groups of socialism, overall, the general push is that he is a marxist-Leninist (which is communism incidently, not socialism) moreso than a libertarian style socialism..which is utter rubbish. Obama is, like pretty much every president before him, a capitalist who uses a bit of socialism for reinforcing the safety net.
If he was a true socialist, there wouldn't be a insurance mandate, there would be a single payer healthcare system run by the government. Instead, we get this capitalist/corporatist trash about purchasing insurance.
Corrupting a word does not make a person fit that word..it just corrupts the word, and makes the corrupters seem unwilling or unable to read a simple definition.
And every leader in every nation, state, kingdom, fifedom, tribe, etc has been responsible for setting up the redistribution of wealth...This is the very core nature of taxation.
Obama likes to breath air also, that doesn't make him a balloon.
Anyhow, back to the first point
Please show me where I took a general view about memes and said this is you?
You may be part, but I was not directing it at you..in the same way you were not directing at me the bush lied, people died meme of the dnc.
And the RNC adopts the whole Obama is a Socialist meme.
"I chose my friends carefully. The more politically active black students. The foreign students. The Chicanos. The Marxist professors and structural feminists and punk-rock performance poets." - Barack Obama (Dreams of My Father)
Political discussions, the kind at Occidental had once seemed so intense and purposeful, came to take on the flavor of the socialist conferences I sometimes attended at Cooper Union" - Barack Obama (Dreams of My Father)
The Washington Post reports that a troika of female advisers--Hillary Clinton, Susan Rice, and Samantha Power--are, by and large, responsible for persuading President Obama-- against the advice of Robert Gates and other members of the military establishment--that bombing Libya is a good idea. Power has condemned American foreign policy for failing to intervene sufficiently to avert genocidal wars, particularly in Bosnia and Rwanda. Bill Clinton has himself said that his biggest regret was not intervening in Rwanda to stop the carnage.
Now these Valkyries of foreign affairs want to come riding in on a new humanitarian mission to rescue the Libyan people from their oppressor. But will it end happily? Or will it be a new chapter in the twilight of the Gods--another blow to mighty America's reputation?
America's Foreign Policy Valkyries: Hillary Clinton, Samantha Power, and Susan Rice
That a diplomatic team led by Hillary Clinton, Susan Rice, and Samantha Power advocated military action against Gaddafi may be a footnote in the Libyan conflict—but it is a significant mark of our nation's evolution, argues John Avlon.
The Libyan airstrikes mark the first time in U.S. history that a female-dominated diplomatic team has urged military action.

For starters, McCain and Graham are going to regret making the statements they've made regarding Susan Rice. They have no evidence to indicate that she lied about anything. All indications are, that she relayed the information as it was given to her and nothing more.
McCain and Graham are a perfect example of "The Problem" facing american politics today. They are both incompetent cowards who choose to make false & inflammatory statements to the press instead of attending the intelligence hearings designed to disclose the facts surrounding the incident. Cowards because of the fact that they have chosen to attack the messenger, (namely Susan Rice) and make her the scapegoat for their lack of knowledge, when it is they who choose not to be properly informed.
Not to worry though. I would imagine that by the time the 2014 mid-term elections are over, these two hypocrites will be driven to extinction, like the dinosaurs they are.
In case you couldn't tell, I think I'll be siding with the House women on this one.

That is hilarious...Mitt Romney was "Demanding answers!!!" before the attack was even over. The GOP was frothing at the mouth to exploit American deaths.
So in response to an apparently insincere call for immediate transparency...she says...
RICE: Well, Jake, first of all, it's important to know that there's an FBI investigation that has begun and will take some time to be completed. That will tell us with certainty what transpired.
...our current best assessment, based on the information that we have at present,....
...We'll wait to see exactly what the investigation finally confirms, but that's the best information we have at present. ....
She qualified the statement at every turn...Sure they could have waited until they had confirmed answers...but the GOP wouldn't.
