Romney/Ryan/Akin/Walsh/Mourdock = The American Taliban!

First they came for the Socialists, and I did not speak out--
Because I was not a Socialist.

Then they came for the Trade Unionists, and I did not speak out--
Because I was not a Trade Unionist.

Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out--
Because I was not a Jew.

Then they came for me--and there was no one left to speak for me.

When fascism comes to America, it will be wrapped in a flag and carrying a cross - Upton Sinclair!

Link, link come on we all know the right wing believes that having sex with there own close family members is best. All you have to do is look at Romney's Family. They all look the same very creepy and not normal.

Remember the history of Mormons they had alot of inbreeding. So rape is ok with Mormons it's a woman job submitt and shut the hell up, and if they don't they will not go heaven.

You know, David Gregory has been having a 2-1 split lately on Meet The Press--2 Republican guests to 1 Democrat. He pretends to be fair and above board but he's actually moved to the right in his efforts not to appear as part of the so-called 'liberal media'.

And sadly, Gregory and Brian Williams and company (including other networks and members of the press) have utterly failed to call Romney on his position shifts and his failure to take reporters' questions. And the media have simply ignored Romney's undisclosed tax returns, as if that's either alright or not an important matter. Romney's carpet-bombing ad approach, ratified by the Citizens United case, is perilously close to working.

I worry too that the Romney campaign has methods in place to discount the actual vote, which is illegal of course, but if done secretly, undermines democracy without anyone being the wiser. I still think Jeb Bush dumped 30,000 Democratic party votes in the Everglades. I wish reporters would cover that (vote fraud) as the actual vote takes place. And by fraud I mean what the Republicans practice every four years in national elections.

I don't recall the Republican party tying the democrats to the Democrat legislator raping that kid at the rest area in Minnesota, but I guess they could. The democrats have been done that for 4 years to America.

GET OUT AND VOTE FOR A REAL LEADER!!!PRESIDENT OBAMA WILL SAY WHAT HE MEANS AND MEAN WHAT HE SAYS!!!! Romney will run and ignore when It does not benefit him... ASK Romney about an issue he does not care about.... 3 reporters tried to yesterdeay Romney ignored!!!! That is a SCARED RABBIT who will run... WE NEED A LEADER PRESIDENT OBAMA!!! VOTE FOR HIM and DEMOCRATS WHO WILL PROTECT WOMENS RIGHTS... MOVE OUR COUNTRY FORWARD and KEEP our CHILDREN AND GRANDCHILREN from being killed and mamed in unwanted wars!!!!

Biden links GOP ticket to Mourdock, Akin

Both are ignorant, FACT

So which one is it? Mourdock says if a woman gets pregnant from a rape it's something that God intended. Akin says a woman can't get pregnant from a rape. All I see is two ultra-conservatives trying to impose their religious beliefs on abortion upon the women of the United States. I always thought the GOP was supposed to be the constitution party. Guess they never heard of separation of church and state.

It is in their platform, of course the Vice President would make the link.

You do accept now the Governor is clinically insane right? We were bleeding 3/4 million jobs a month when this President took office. Don't get Romnesia.

The Governor said in his 'big speech' today 'I know what it takes to lead, I am a leader.

How silly..

The Governor has NOTHING to say to concerned women.The Governor has shown us time and time again what kind of leader he would be when the going get's tough.EVERY TIME there seems to be an issue that is 'hard', he avoids it like the plague.His mode of operation seems to be that if he just avoids anything 'tough' people just give up and move on to something else.That is not leadership, that is extremely weak and spineless.

Mr Mourdock is a man Governor Romney ENDORSED this week for high office and will certainly oversee women's health legislation at some point and NOW Governor Romney has 'no comment'.

'Gods Will' has NO place in the same sentiment as 'rape'. Not even in some abstract Lenny Bruce joke.

My boy just returned in August from whatever it is they are still doing in Iraq, and we SEND kids overseas to combat extremism brought around by the 'Gods will' mentality. It has ZERO place here at home in the US Government.Governor Romney is a disaster, you can not like the President, but at least he takes stands and you know where he stands on stuff like this.

The Governor is acting like a pathetically weak and spineless chicken. Expect for Governor Romney to continue him to exhibit ZERO leadership when it is needed.

Wow. I don't like posting very much but I really want to comment about this. I work with sexually abused children. I have seen kids from the ages of 18 - to infants (as young as 6 months) EVERY day (some of them pregnant) come in with these horrific stories. I am a firm believer in God, but God gave us free will and that is why these come into our building every day not because of God's will.

Rachel Maddow insists 12 GOP Senators are of the Akin- Mourdock ilk. And how many of those twelve believe in evolution? The new GOP = dumbass. They are the lowest creatures that have inhabited the Congress in 100 years.

Wow...from the tenor of these comments, the lefties are really going off the deep end.

Mental health counselors will be doing a lot of business after Nov 6 with shellshocked liberals.

This is a necessarily-long post detailing what we know so far about the Benghazi attack. I believe I have brought together information from multiple sources that has not been seen in one place before:

1. Ambassador Stevens believed strongly that an attack was likely, and made multiple unambiguous requests for additional security in Libya.

2. In June 2012, the Consulate in Benghazi, Libya was damaged by an improvised explosive device. Stevens reported to his superiors that an Islamist group (Ansar al-Shariah?) had claimed credit for the attack. Shortly after that a British Embassy convoy in Benghazi was also attacked. And again, Ambassador Stevens requested more security forces for Benghazi.

3. Eric Nordstrom the State Department's Regional Security Officer, and Karen Keshap and Shawn P. Crowley, State Department employees, had all made multiple complaints about the inadequate security in Benghazi. Crowley, had even apologized in an email for "being a broken record" on the subject of inadequate security in Benghazi.

4. In response to all these requests, the Obama Administration refused to increase security at the US Consulate in Benghazi at all.

5. On the morning of September 11, Ambassador Stevens signed a three-page cable, labeled "sensitive," in which he noted "growing problems with security" in Benghazi. As before, he was ignored.

6. On the night of September 11, in what would become his last known public meeting, Stevens met with the Turkish Consul General Ali Sait Akin, and escorted him out of the consulate front gate at about 8:35 PM.

7. Possibly related to this meeting with the Turkish Consul General: There was a CIA annex about a mile from the U.S. Consulate. Part of their mission was to track and repurchase arms in Benghazi that had proliferated in the wake of Muammar Qaddafi's fall, including 20,000 missing shoulder-fired antiaircraft missiles. Stevens may have been in Benghazi to negotiate a weapons transfer in an effort to get such missiles out of the hands of Libya-based extremists. Five days previously, the Libyan-flagged vessel Al Entisar, was received in the Turkish port of Iskenderun -- 35 miles from the Syrian border. According to a September 14 report by the Times of London, Al Entisar was carrying 800,000 pounds of cargo. Some of it was humanitarian, but it also included a large consignment of weapons headed for the Syrian rebels.

8. One hour later, at about 9:35 PM on the night of September 11 2012, the Consulate in Benghazi, Libya was attacked by 20 – 100 heavily armed terrorists with rocket propelled grenades and machine guns. Ambassador Stevens, and four of his personnel moved to the compound "safe haven". The terrorists torched the compound with incendiary devices. Information Management Officer, Sean Smith, was killed during this period.

9. Former Navy SEAL Tyrone Woods was at the CIA annex about a mile from the U.S. consulate. When he and others heard the shots fired, they informed their higher-ups at the annex to tell them what they were hearing and requested permission to go to the consulate and help out. They were told to "stand down." Soon after, they were again told to "stand down."

10. To emphasize: The first communications to CIA, reporting the attack, were almost simultaneous with the first shots fired.

11. Woods and at least two others ignored the orders to stand down and made their way to the consulate which, at that point, was on fire. Shots were exchanged. The rescue team from the CIA annex evacuated those who remained at the consulate and the body of Sean Smith. They could not find the ambassador and returned to the CIA annex at about midnight.

12. Ahmed Abu Khattala, a leader of the Benghazi-based Islamist group Ansar al-Shariah, or "Partisans of Islamic Law," was observed commanding the attack that night.

13. Tyrone Woods was joined at the scene by fellow former Navy SEAL Glen Doherty. They were later killed by a mortar shell at 4 am, nearly seven hours after the attack on the consulate began. Four mortar rounds were fired at the annex. The first one struck outside the annex. Three more hit the annex. The team inside the annex captured three Libyan attackers, but were then forced to hand them over to the Libyans. U.S. officials do not know what happened to those three attackers or whether they were released by the Libyan forces.

14. Two military surveillance drones were sent to Benghazi shortly after the attack on the consulate began. Both were capable of sending real time visuals back to U.S. officials in Washington, D.C. Any U.S. official or agency with the proper clearance, including the White House Situation Room, State Department, CIA, Pentagon and others, could call up that video in real time on their computers.

15. Two hours after the attack started, Obama was informed through unclassified channels that "the diplomatic mission is under attack. Embassy Tripoli reports approximately 20 armed people fired shots; explosions have been heard as well." The SBU (Sensitive But Unclassified) email did not report any crowds, demonstrators or protestors. It is safe to assume that the urgent classified communications from CIA came to Obama and Clinton much sooner, and with far more detail. Other SBU emails, obtained by Reuters, specifically mention that Ansar al-Sharia had asserted responsibility for the attacks. Again there was never any mention of crowds, demonstrators or protestors.

16. At about the same time that Obama received the unclassified emails two hours into the attack, CIA operators at the Annex called again for military support and help because they were now taking fire. The request was denied. There were no communications problems at the annex, according those present at the compound. The team was in constant radio contact with their headquarters. One member of the team was on the roof of the annex manning a heavy machine gun when mortars were fired at the CIA compound. He had a laser pointing at the Libyan mortar team that was targeting the CIA annex, and the operators were calling in coordinates of where the Libyan forces were firing from. They repeatedly requested back-up support from a Spectre gunship, which is commonly used by Special Ops forces to provide support to teams on the ground involved in intense firefights. The Gunship was never allowed to take off.

17. The fighting at the CIA annex went on for more than four hours -- enough time for any planes based in Sigonella Air base, just 480 miles away, to arrive. A Special Ops team that specializes in counter-terrorism rescues was also on hand at Sigonella. They could have flown to Benghazi in less than two hours. They were told to “wait.”

18. Throughout the attack, which lasted for approximately seven hours, classified and unclassified information, real time surveillance video, requests for support, and reports from on-site personnel were pouring into the White House Situation Room. The big missing piece of the puzzle at that point was who denied permission for the CIA operators to rescue Ambassador Stevens when the attack started? Who denied the request for military support? Who grounded the Spectre Gunship? Who told the Special Operations Forces to “wait”?

19. Defense Secretary Leon Panetta on October 25 defended the lack of U.S. military response, saying the situation on the ground was “too confusing.”

20. Twelve hours after the attack began, the body of Ambassador Chris Stevens was finally found being dragged through the streets of Benghazi. A Libyan official said “He died suffocation,” but a news report made by the Libyan Free Press reported that Ambassador Stevens was sodomized before he was killed. Question: Where was he during those twelve hours, and what was being done to him? Dragging his body through the streets may have been to obscure marks of brutal torture while he was still alive.

21. The following day Obama made an ambiguous statement that may or may not have acknowledged that this was a terrorist attack.

22. Immediately after Obama's statement though, administration spokespersons, including White House spokesman Jay Carney, maintained for two weeks that the attacks likely were a spontaneous protest against an anti-Muslim film. They offered no evidence to support that contention.

23. After two weeks, faced with all the mounting and incontrovertible evidence, Obama finally admitted that it was a pre-planned terrorist attack.

24. On October 17 The New York Times reported that "Libyan authorities have singled out Ahmed Abu Khattala, a leader of the Benghazi-based Islamist group Ansar al-Shariah, or "Partisans of Islamic Law," as a commander in the attack." This confirmed the unclassified email that Obama had received on September 11.

25. Had Obama told the truth at the time, he would have been admitting that he had committed a huge error in judgment not to grant the consulate's repeated security requests, especially on the anniversary of 9/11. He clearly had a great deal of motivation to call it a "spontaneous demonstration," and that is exactly what he did!

26. On October 25, leading congressional lawmakers applied new pressure to the Obama administration for information on the attack: "The American public is increasingly reading information contradicting early accounts by your administration of the causes of the events of the day. "In the absence of your direct engagement to clarify these concerns, the public's frustration and confusion is likely to discredit efforts to achieve our shared goals of justice and accountability for the direct assault on American interests and the deaths of four public servants."

27. On October 26, A man suspected of involvement in the Benghazi attack was killed in Cairo, Egypt. Authorities named the man only as “Hazem”.

Sorry for the long post, and I'm afraid it will get longer as more and more information comes to light.

That was quite the comment from a GOP Senate candidate. Did anyone expect anything different? Maybe that is how he found his spouse. After paying her father 50 shekels.

Way to go msDNC. These are the big stories and not things like the coverup of Libya. When it comes to investigaing news, there is no such thing anymore with NBC(national bama corp). I see why most of these obamazombies do not even know who is vice-president or the very real topics that need to be addressed on the ills of this country. We have a pathalogical LIAR of a president that missed over 60% of the morning intelligence briefings and are the cause of a diplomat and 3 American treasures being slaughtered while our embassies and consolates are ravaged and burned while not meeting with his security counsels,,,not meeting with his own employment counsels,,,but has to go to Vegas and be on Letterman, the view, and interviewed by "pimpy wimpy" all while these acts of war are committed on us! And for weeks afterword, this puke of a president and administration blames it on a stinkin video! This weak COWARD failed leader murdered these people and msDNC covers up this scandel that is worse then Iran contra or watergate at any level. No puke obama or any socialist godless babykiller libtard democrat on Nov 6th! Romney/Ryan 2012!!!!

way to go NBC, when joe(bite me)biden is your honored piece of news it shows just how much out of touch you phonies are. The majority of American's who are aware of bidens line of bullsh*t are continuing to have a conversation on how is it joe can prositute him self and the left just eats it up. Two of the biggest mistakes in presidential history are obama & biden. It's one of America's saddest times and obama & biden are having a swell time telling everybody it's not their fault, but they can fix it all in the next 4 years, what happened the first 4 years ? besides blaming bush, nothing good, voters will have to be complete fools to allow obama/biden to reside over them again.

Watch this short debate, Biden vs. Biden. And to think this clown wants another 4 years only a heartbeat away from the presidency?

A Special Olympian with Down Syndrome castigated right-wing flamethrower Ann Coulter for calling President Obama a 'retard' after the final presidential debate.

A Special Olympics athlete with Down syndrome has shamed conservative pundit Ann Coulter in an open letter after she called President Obama a “retard” this week.

“Come on Ms. Coulter, you aren't dumb and you aren't shallow,” wrote John Franklin Stephens in a blog post. “So why are you continually using a word like the R-word as an insult?”

Stephens, 30, told Coulter that he has “struggled with the public's perception that an intellectual disability means that I am dumb and shallow.”

“I am not either of those things, but I do process information more slowly than the rest of you. In fact it has taken me all day to figure out how to respond to your use of the R-word last night.”

Coulter used the offensive term when commenting about the final presidential debate on Twitter.

“I highly approve of Romney's decision to be kind and gentle to the retard,” Coulter wrote Monday night.

John Franklin Stephens is a Special Olympics athlete.

Despite widespread outrage about the tweet, Coulter doubled down on her word choice on Tuesday.

“If he's ‘the smartest guy in the room’ it must be one retarded room,” she wrote about Obama.

In his open letter, Stephens wondered whether Coulter had used the word to suggest that President Obama was “bullied as a child by people like you” or that he “has to struggle to be thoughtful about everything he says.”

“After I saw your tweet, I realized you just wanted to belittle the President by linking him to people like me,” he wrote. “You assumed that people would understand and accept that being linked to someone like me is an insult and you assumed you could get away with it and still appear on TV.”

“Well, Ms. Coulter, you, and society, need to learn that being compared to people like me should be considered a badge of honor,” he said.

Stephens invited Coulter to attend the Special Olympics, challenging her to “walk away with your heart unchanged.”

Coulter has not yet publicly responded to the open letter, which Stephens signed “a friend you haven’t made yet.”

The conservative commentator has a long history of using inflammatory and offensive language.

Her latest insensitive remark comes just weeks after she was criticized for joking that national “coming out” day would be followed by national “disown your son” day.
