Today's two media heroes: Thomas Roberts & Soledad O'Brien


 
Last edited Wed Oct 10, 2012, 07:38 PM USA/ET - Edit history (1)

I haven't had a lot of good things to say about media folks lately, so when this comes from me it's really sincere.

This morning, I actually had the pleasure of watching MSNBC's Thomas Roberts take on a GOP hack on the Republican Party's campaign to suppress the vote. When the hack registered his indignation, Roberts never backed down. It was a thing of beauty.

The other media hero today is CNN's Soledad o'Brien, when she exposed the blatant hypocrisy of UT Rep Jason Cheffetz (Ridiculous) for blaming the Obama administration in their handling the Benghazi, Libya incident, even after he himself admitted to voting to slash security funding there.

I'm sorry that I don't have links or vids, I'm writing this from my iPod.

But I think that we should all thank Ms. O'Brien and Mr. Roberts for their fine work today and I, for one, wish them continued due diligence in the future.

Yep anything to distract from the fact that 0bama lied about the video being the cause and that they denied the security that was needed in Libya.

They think they are so politically astute but do not realize that what happened in Libya is a crescendo event.

They think they can get away with blaming the repukes in congress for this. Once again the buck stops anywhere but at 0bama's feet.

O'BRIEN: But if there’s pressure – we just heard from one of the clip that's going to testify before you today that there was definitely this pressure, in his mind, to not staff the embassy fully security wise.  Wouldn't that pressure be coming from you directly, essentially, people and others who voted against funding for security? Keep it low because there's no funding for security. 



CHAFFETZ: You're also talking about a vote that never came to fruition because we actually continued at the exact same funding levels moving forward. This is a vote that happened at the House. 
Remember, the Senate never got to this point. So we did a continuing resolution. It's a red herring. The reality is you have to prioritize things and when you're talking about such a small, small number of security personnel there in country, that's a problem.

Another thing we're going to talk about in this hearing is the fact that the physical facilities themselves did not meet the minimum standards. When you're in Libya after a revolution, I've got to argue that that's got to be a higher priority than protecting some other, you know, compound in (inaudible) or whatever you might be. I don't mean to pick on them.

But you've got to prioritize things and what clearly didn't happen is Libya was not a priority. I believe what I heard is that it's because they wanted the appearance of normalization. That's what they wanted. That fit the Obama narrative moving forward.

Blood on ****ing Obama's hands. 

All the lefties, liberals and moonbats think this way.  Brown people can do no wrong, so what could possibly happen?  Bury head firmly ass and go la-la-la.  Now our own people are dead.

An inconvenient truth for the DUmmies. Also, DUmmies, why is there now an investigation into the lies of the Obummer admin?

There have been no budget cuts from the congress. NONE.

If there were imaginary congressional budget cuts how come the Austrian embassy got a fleet of $50,0000 GovMtr Volts and a $100,000 charging station?

This was all under the regimes control and specifically under the smartest woman in the universe control and then ultimately under the universes smartest man. Lord save us from these super smart people.

OAN, I now understand that when the left uses the term smart they mean LIAR.
