The T-GOP Haz A Sad!





NO BENGHAZI SCANDAL!




The T-GOP blogsphere haz a sad!  

What we "libtards" have known all along has been acknowledged by a GOP House report:  

NO BENGHAZI SCANDAL!  



Here's the juicy non-scandal part that will be ignored by every conservative pundit, pol, and blogger:

After nearly two years of investigations, millions of dollars spent, tens of thousands of pages of documents handed over by the administration, a Republican-led committee is about to release a report stating that there is no evidence of wrongdoing on the part of the Obama White House.



No matter how the T-GOPers banged their ideological pots and pans, howled at the top of their vein-popping tonsils, and stamped their little hooves to create as much noise as they could, nothing ever came of it.  

Because there was no there there.

Two years of investigations turned up NO BENGHAZI SCANDAL!

Too bad, so sad.  





From The San Francisco Chronicle: 

 WASHINGTON -- The House Intelligence Committee, led by Republicans, has concluded that there was no deliberate wrongdoing by the Obama administration in the 2012 attack on the U.S. Consulate in Benghazi, Libya, that killed Ambassador Chris Stevens and three other Americans, said Rep. Mike Thompson of St. Helena, the second-ranking Democrat on the committee. 

The panel voted Thursday to declassify the report, the result of two years of investigation by the committee. U.S. intelligence agencies will have to approve making the report public. Thompson said the report "confirms that no one was deliberately misled, no military assets were withheld and no stand-down order (to U.S. forces) was given."



So there's that. 



But don't expect our dear Tea Party friends to let go of their fantasies of an ugly, presidential career-ending Benghazi scandal. This will be very difficult for the poor scandal hounds to let go. They wanted it so badly and believed it so fervently.  If you read their blogs, you'll see them declare IN ALL CAPS that BENGHAZI! BENGHAZI! BENGHAZI!  STILL LIVES!!!111!

How to deal with it? If you love them, as we should always love our misbegotten neighbors, you will remove all sharp objects from their surroundings, "...prevent the dog from barking with a juicy bone, silence the pianos and with muffled drum bring out the coffin, let the mourners come.*

Valerie Plame-The apology that never came

Shaw Kenawe said...

Yes, true. Big Dick Cheney owed that family an apology for what he did to the Wilsons.

Yes, but IRS! Birth certificate!! Executive orders!!! And he's bringing unaccompanied minor Islamic terrorists with Ebola into the US!!!! And he causes meteors!!!!! SATAN!!!!!!

Like you, I don't think the real crazies will stop ranting about Benghazi because of this, though the saner ones may, at least for a while. But they're just too emotionally invested in their image of Obama as "scandal-plagued" to give it up just because of actual evidence. Just look how thoroughly the birth-certificate thing has been debunked, and I still see wackjobs claiming Obama isn't really American.

At least it's somewhat reassuring that the Republicans on the committee let their conclusions be guided by evidence rather than ideology. These days, you can never be sure.

Really, Shaw, Benghazi is so last season.

His attempt to stay in office by causing an Ebola pandemic is picking up traction right now.

Obviously, Issa is a Democratic plant. After all, he is from California.

Well with the Republican'Ts, it is clearly - "Reality is a concept whose time has not come."

No evidence of a cover-up is absolute proof of evidence of a cover-up. Don't think for a split second any of this will stop the Republican'Ts.

Prediction: ... Republican'Ts will vote for articles of impeachment before the end of the year.

Ineptness is not illegal no matter the position or the party.

Ducky's here said...

Well so much for the Ebola talking point.

Early stories are that the two doctors being treated in the U.S. aren't here to generate a pandemic to allow Obama to declare marshal law but for initial human testing of a vaccine developed by the dreaded public sector.

Surprise, surprise.

Famous quotes by GOPers who dreamed of a far away land with a Castle Impeachment high on a hill:

James Inhofe (R-OK) openly declared that the president should be impeached over Benghazi,

“Of all the great cover-ups in history, the Pentagon papers, Iran-Contra, Watergate, all the rest of them, this is going to go down as most egregious cover-up in American history.”


This guy is a US Senator, ferchrissake! When we "libtards" keep reminding people that the T-GOPers are nothing more than frothing Obama haters on meth, we're understating their malady.

Inhofe's "...most egregious cover-up in American history." fell flat on its non-covered-up face.

Epic FAIL, Inhofe!

Next:

Steve King (R-IA):

“I believe that it's a lot bigger than Watergate, and if you link Watergate and Iran-Contra together and multiply it times maybe ten or so, you're going to get in the zone where Benghazi is.”


Steve King is the Franz Reichelt of T-GOP politics.

More later.
