    Give me some time Petro and I'm pretty sure I can come up with a few Trumpisms that dovetail with the Klan's vision of immigration among other things. Substitute the words "great" and "white" and you could very well be at a Klan rally.

    It pains me to say this, but Kasich still seems like the only one in the bunch that isn't waaay off the reservation when it comes to what mainstream America is about from the GOP side. Hell, even Michael Steele is worried and you gotta go some to make him admit there's an issue with the GOP. I'm more comfortable with Kasich vs. Clinton than I am Trump vs. Sanders any day and twice on Sunday.

    BTW, was there a Palin sighting today? Heard Christie was dragged away from New Jersey today too. Better answer the call when it comes from The Don or else.... :D

    I thought Trump had to come up with the cash to pay for the 80year old slugger.

    While Kasich is closer to Clinton than Cruz is, to say they are not that different is inaccurate. Ftr I would love to like Kasich a lot more, but on fiscal and tax policy, he is very conservative. He's a hard money guy for example, and that defies common sense. If it were not for the low interest rates the Fed has adopted since the financial crisis, we would be in a deep depression right now. Same for his tax policies, they are just a variant of the trickle down supply side bs the GOP has been in thrall of for decades. More to the super rich, and piss running down on everyone else.

    Same thing I was thinking. Perhaps it didn't support the narrative?

    She was talking about the Gaddaffi overthrow. By cutting it short like that opponents can make their narrative that she meant we never lost any lives in Libya. I'm sure she's well aware of what happened in Benghazi

    Right. It's sort of like if GWB said that we lost just a handful of soldiers when we toppled Saddam Hussein. Who cares what happened afterwards?

    So, you think HRC didn't care about what happened at Benghazi?

    Based on what?

    I only posted what she said. If GWB, whom I can't stand and voted twice against, said something like that about Iraq, we'd witness an instant media firestorm.

    As far as Hillary is concerned, she just come across as a fake. I asked many people about this, including quite a few who are going to vote for her, and not a single one said that she looked genuine. She's as fake as it gets. Even if you look at the way she laughs, it's artificial, achieved by probably practicing for hours in front of a mirror.

    She no more puts on a show than any of the others, including your entertainment tv guy.

    And you did not answer the question, so I will assume you know she does care about Benghazi. Your link was almost certainly cut when she was only talking bout the removal of Qaddaffi, which ftr did not cost a single American life.

    Context is important.

    Right. The removal of Qaddafi directly led to the attack on the US compound where the four Americans died. In Qaddafi's Libya, just like in Saddam's Iraq, radical Muslim nutjobs weren't running rampant, blowing stuff up and killing people. The removal of Qaddafi did cost American lives whether you want to admit it or not.

    Benghazi occurred nearly a year after Qaddafi was killed.

    Lots can happen in a year, but you obviously just want to conclude the worst about someone you hate. You are entitled to your opinions, but the facts are there was no more a direct connection here than in any identification of a correlation in time, or what lawyers call but for causation. There was no proximate connection, and Benghazi happened well after Qaddafi was deposed and assassinated.

    A year passes = "directly!"

    Alrighty.

    I'll say it again. When Qaddafi was in power, Muslim terrorists were kept under control in Libya. The attack that killed those four Americans would not have happened in Qaddafi's Libya. So, yes, the removal of Qaddafi was the direct cause of that attack.
