No, Romney lost the Crowley a..."rfules"?<br /><br />No, Romney lost the Crowley argument, though he was right.<br /><br />A propos, Figaro says the recently released US govt report on what really happened is exactly what Republicans say happened, right down to no role at all for the Mohamed video, no mobs, etc.<br /><br />Just one helluva successful terrorist attack on the anniversary of 9/11.<br /><br />An anniversary publicly celebrated in Cairo and many other Muslim cities with the usual, pro forma references to "disrespect" for the prophet, murders, and so on.<br /><br />Followed not too much later by another Cairo crowd pleaser, the attack and rape of a pretty, young Western journalist, this one French.<br /><br />You have to wonder how much hammering the Libya episode since then and yelling about Iran has helped the GOP hold down any Obama rebound from the last debate.<br /><br />If he loses the election Democrats will say Obama blew it with the first debate, his performance there costing him his solid and steady lead.<br /><br />But Republicans will add the Libya affair.<br /><br />Not just the killing of the ambassador, but the administration's handling of the event that the GOP has very successfully attacked, almost daily, since then.<br /><br />Given the opportunity, expect Romney to hammer Obama for not defeating al-Qaeda, not stopping Iran, not defeating the Taliban, not stabilizing Iraq, and not preventing a sweeping rise of Islamism under the rubric, "Arab Spring."<br /><br />The fact that no one could have done better and the American cause in the region is a lost cause and was from the day GW started his hopeless invasions will not stop them hammering Obama.<br /><br />Successfully.<br />Philo Vaihingerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17150326435392881297noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3856837.post-19004323101533539352012-10-21T11:47:51.400-04:002012-10-21T11:47:51.400-04:00It's going to be interesting to see what Mitt ...It's going to be interesting to see what Mitt says about Iran, and if he tries to bring up Libya in some way.<br /><br />I'm sure Mitt's line on Iran will be, 'Well, sure they want to negotiate with this pussy. They can't bear by firm resolve, and won't be able to look into my steely-eyed gaze.'<br /><br />In other words, more tough talk from another war-loving pussy who dodged Vietnam.<br /><br />If Mitt loses, hopefully that will be the last of the Vietnam War draft-dodging war-loving pussies to run on the Republican side. FSM, I'm sick of these cowards stomping around like they're John Wayne - who also conveniently skipped-out on serving in HIS war - unlike Gable, Stewart, and others.<br /><br />Oh, and farewell to great, George McGovern.<br />RIP.<br />We shitty American people didn't deserve a good man like you as President.<br /><br />And, much as I don't like ALL of Obama's policies, I sure as hell hope he wins big.<br />If the stupid Americans vote for another amoral sociopath for President, they'll get what they deserve. <br />Too bad so many of us will have to go down the shitter with these rubes, racists, misogynists, xenophobes, and homophobes.<br /><br />USA = United States of Assholes.Victorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06609452382111686086noreply@blogger.com
