Makes me wonder what the leftist freaks are going to dump into the news TOMORROW afternoon to be forgotten over the weekend.

Maybe this is why. McCain moved to Foreign Relations, two days later, she’s done.

Saddened, perhaps, but not enough to admit her complicity in the Benghazi cover-up.

Susan Rice KNEW, long before she ran to the networks to spread the phony story about the raid on Benghazi was a reaction to some video that nobody had ever seen, that the allegation was false.

Like Susan MacDougal, the Clintonista of Whitewater fame, she will fall on the sword, before she would ever admit to her part in a cover-up that should have never succeeded.

I doubt you’ll be saying that when McCain rubber-stamps John Kerry.

...saddened by partisan politics

To Democrats, "partisan politics" means holding them accountable to prove the veracity of their words.

Democrats want to be able to say and do anything that is expedient for them at the moment, and not be held tomorrow to their words spoken today.

To call them on their lies is to be "partisan." That's whay Harry Belafonte wants Republicans jailed for challenging Democrats.

They probably wouldn’t find out much more from Rice, but it’s true that Obama is dumping or silencing anybody who was involved with Benghazi in any way. Rice appears not to have known anything about it when it happened, but by the time she lied (repeatedly) for Obama, she must have been informed at least to some extent.

However, this woman has such a lousy track record that even a lot of the Dems couldn’t defend her. She was responsible not only for the shoddy management that let the bombings in Kenya happen, but for messing up a number of African countries in her passage through the other position from which she “failed upstairs.”

In any sane non-Democrat world, she would have been out of a job decades ago.

I suppose dropping out and acting all hurt is easier than explaining why you were so dead wrong, and why you were the one sent out on the talk show circuit in the first place?

Sounds like her pants were on fire and she ran.

Wonder if she will get tossed out of her present position. Another typical Obama low life.

He served in Viet Nam ya know, I wonder if anyone will have the guts to question his phony medals and treasonous behavior?

Where's that form 180 John, what exactly did Jimmy Carter do for you?

Not sure that would be much of an improvement. Brown hasn’t really been much of a conservative since winning the election.

... who should get the John Tower treatment, but the gutless Pubbies don't have it in them.

Are you calling the leaders of the GOP gutless?

Aw, poor widdle Susie, went and got her feelins hurt by those nasty Weepublicans. Cripes, cry me a freakin’ river. Ever since Obumwad got elected, it’s been NOTHING BUT partisan politics. It’s Obama who has poisoned the waters and polarized the whole freaking business.

Obama found out she lied about Benghazi. Never mind the fact he TOLD her to tell the lies.

 

Under the bus she goes.
