Yeah, but then he escaped to Libya and killed those diplomats while Obama held them down.

What the Obama years will be remembered for, is (1) Obama, and (2) the self-destruction of the Republican Party.

benghazi has never been - and never will be - anything other than groundwork for smearing hillz in 2016. well, and a talking point for john mccain to bitch about not getting elected president. i imagine (and sincerely hope) it will die a firm and lasting death now that there are more meaty bones to gnaw on.

the irs scandal is likely local and will also probably die after a few sorry heads are scalped in the cincinnati office (sorry folks! it's a tough job market out there. but i can't say i don't feel for you going after baggers. they are a pathetic lot who are as far away from a 'social welfare' organization as is karl rove - or my little theatre company. but elections have consequences and america elected W twice and now we have a batshit SCOTUS).

the AP scandal is definitely more serious but the more i hear about how congress was forcing the investigation of leaks the more i think it too will not go very far. also: no one on the right really gives a shit about wiretapping and eavesdropping except as a cudgel against a democrat.

however, the president was and still is black.

It is kind of odd that they blame the IRS-looking-into-them-then-granting-them-tax-exempt-status all on "OBAMA!!1"

Especially since they only started their stupid tax-exempt "social welfare" group because of OBAMA in the first place.

I'm sorry but I don't think any of these "social welfare" groups are anything more than a method of hiding profits.

The fucking South Beach Diet was a ostensibly better for all of society than every teabaggerty group handing out free pocket constitutions, yet those authors didn't get to claim some "tax-exempt" status while profiting on the latest fad.

<blockquote>So let’s forget them and luxuriate in the fact that we won’t have to hear about how the deficit is molesting our children for the next few minutes.</blockquote>

Has this man ever even met a Republican?

No, no, you have it wrong. Austerity could have <em>saved</em> us from Ben Ghazi, but O-Bam-Bam wouldn't let it...

And now Ben Ghazi is on the loose. I bet the Usurper isn't even looking for him in caves.

As our author has pointed out, you cannot divide by zero.

The CBO went out of it's way to attribute the reduction to increased revenues.

ofc, according to the right, the CBO is radically partisan, except when it agrees with them.
