US Presidential Election 2012 part 2: Bitches love Binders

[kuronosan]

Okay, I'll be the one to ask. Are you a fucking retard?

[RKenshin]

They were ordered to stand down... any other president would be impeached for it.

I don't think you have any idea what impeachment means or is used for.

That, and I really don't think you have any clue as to the circumstances surrounding that event.

There was no order to 'stand down' (lol?). There were 20 other protests active in the region, along with a number of other consulates 'under attack' (Yemen, Cairo, etc), and a large number of others in areas that could be viewed as a high risk/danger area.

All of which are constantly calling for more security as they deal with various threats, but the fact is that our budget doesn't allow for an endless increase in security on demand anytime a rock goes through a window. The requests are routinely denied and prioritized as independent judgment sees fit.

To act like this was an isolated incident, as the only place that ever had any threats and ever requested more security and ever was then denied it, only shows your ignorance and lack of understanding of the topic.

the only sitting president ever to be impeached (as far as i know of- could be wrong) was impeached for lying to congress about getting a blowjob. the fuck makes you think any other president would be impeached for anything, let alone for possibly making a mistake while doing his job?

[Andalusian girls]

Andrew Johnson (Lincoln's vice president and thus after Our American Cousin the president) was impeached immediately following the civil war for 'going soft' on Reconstruction which enraged hardline Republicans who wanted to aid former slaves and punish former confederates

so

either fuck up the aftermath of a civil war

or get a blowjob

only two impeachable offenses

[mallister]

pretty sure this is what he was talking about:

http://beforeitsnews.com/politics/20...s-2466106.html

relevant quote from article: “The information I heard today was that General [Carter] Ham as head of Africom received the same e-mails the White House received requesting help/support as the attack was taking place. General Ham immediately had a rapid response unit ready and communicated to the Pentagon that he had a unit ready.

General Ham then received the order to stand down. His response was to screw it, he was going to help anyhow. Within 30 seconds to a minute after making the move to respond, his second in command apprehended General Ham and told him that he was now relieved of his command.”

no clue as to veracity of course but i've seen this quoted in a couple of articles.

[Churchill]

If that's true, it sounds like they were reacting to the attack as it was ongoing, in which case I can see why a hasty plan into a dense urban area where a terrorist attack just occurred and the entire middle east is pissed and up in arms would be called off.

You are either going to end up with dead operators or hundreds of dead muj or both.

Two sitting presidents: Johnson and Clinton. Both were political witch hunts.

There was 7 and a half hour of fire fight with drones 20 min away... The white house administration said to do nothing. It would reflect bad on Obama campaign. I'm not talking about looking into a crystal ball and predicting future. It was happening and within 20-30 min planes could been there, long range missiles used, etc. They were told to stand by.

[Cantih]

Wasn't Nixon on the edge of impeachment, he just resigned first?

[6souls]

PBS is running a Frontline special on campaign financing right now on TV, you can also watch it online

http://video.pbs.org/video/2298009584

FRONTLINE travels to the remote epicenter of the campaign finance debate for a tale of money, politics, and intrigue. How has the Supreme Court's Citizens United decision changed campaigns in America? Ask Montana, which has tried to challenge the ruling in court, is investigating alleged campaign abuses and is playing host to a bitter race that could decide control of the U.S. Senate.

68% of the ad money for the Montana election alone comes from outside of the state.

He resigned and was then given a Presidential Pardon by Gerald Ford

So... you're of the opinion we should have been attacking our embassy with drones and icbms?

[Cichy]

jesus christ

[Plow]

Please, do explain how "planes and long range missiles" and "drones 20 mins away" could have been used to protect the people inside the embassy from the other people inside the embassy.

[Restrat]

since only enemy combatants are ever killed by drones, they would have been protected (unless they were secretly terrorists)

[Cichy]

There was a strike team 30 min away, military could send drones to attack the forces outside the embassy.

There's a pretty good interview with the father of one of the navy seals here.

[Coren]

While I grieve for his loss, with all due respect, that father is a fucking moron, and he's as deluded as most foxnews viewers. Just look at how he references the president and biden when they were there to offer condolences when the body arrived home.
