>> Can you believe these folks are actually in the senate and congress? Can you believe we have a president who voted three times to allow babies to die in broom closets? You see how this works?

What I said is that it shouldn't be ignored. I don't think I was suggesting any illegal actions. Why did you come to that conclusion? Don't know. Reading a lot of crazy shit coming from the republican side I suppose. Look at my last post to inode. Can you believe these folks are actually in the senate and congress? I am acutely aware of how crazy and incompetent they are. Congress has come to a virtual stand still. Its beyond frustrating. Here's a typical example.............this country has some serious problems but all Rs can do is focus on one or two issues like Libya......working over time to discredit Obama. McCain who sadly is one of their better pols is at the forefront: Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) hosted an event in his home state yesterday, ostensibly about immigration policy, before repeating one of his favorite talking points. "I'm glad you got up Benghazi," the senator told a constituent. "My friends, it's a cover-up." McCain neglected to explain what "it" is. "It's" a cover-up? What's a cover-up? When he appeared on "Meet the Press" recently, host David Gregory asked this simple question: "A cover-up of what?" McCain turned belligerent and dodged the question. It's been that kind of controversy for months -- Republicans and Fox News continue to ask questions that have already been answered, and continue to insist there's an amorphous scandal hiding just out of sight, which they can neither identify nor explain. What's more, they just can't let go. And now they are starting to do the same thing with the Boston bombing. Meanwhile other important issues remain ignored and unattended. Its a mistake for Rs to think the other side is quietly putting up with this shit and is intimidated by their behavior. On the contrary, the attitude increasingly is to bring it on.
