Wouldn't it have been great to have Senators Ask tough questions about the other Sept 11?

The biggest Government disappointment of my lifetime is that Bush & Co got a free pass!

But now it's ok to ask tough questions...fucking soulless republican treasonous bastards!

NOW is not the time to hash it out, we have to focus on the troops in the field. There will be time to figure it out later.

About 5 years of that, then of course, you can't investigate them or prosecute them going out of office because they country just could not stand the divisiveness.

Now that is all water under the bridge, and of course half these jackwagons are screaming to impeach the Democratic President for having the temerity to be a Democrat.

W and company had 70 warnings and did nothing. Or how about
the farce "fast and furious" hearings that Darrel Issa ran and which
in the end showed zero links to Eric Holder?

For a party that is so worried about running up the debt they sure can
piss away money on phony ass hearings.

It was the GOP who had to answer the questions, but nobody had ANY. They treated 9/11 like it happened personally to Bush himself. And the 2.3 Trillion the Pentagon "misplaced" was never found. IMO it was the pay off for the attacks.

you were going to refer to the original Sept 11. The one in 1973. But since that was caused by us, it's gone into the memory hole.

are hung up on the "7 hours" talking point before any response to the Benghazi attack on Sept 11, 2012. However, there was NO RESPONSE by the bush administration or the military DURING the attacks (with an "s&quot on Sept 11, 2001.

Also, one r idiot before was beside himself that it took 4 months to get these hearings. But how long was it after the attacks of Sept 11, 2001 before there were hearings?

I hate these fuckers more and more every day and this Benghazi circus orchestrated by little r subhumans are specifically meant to tarnish a possible Clinton run for president in 2016.

Why are we told it's either "off the table" or "to look forward not backwards"?
