is that the liberal knows he's a crook and tries to hide it from people. The conservative thinks he is entitled to be that way because he has superior morals, intellect and work ethic. Money grubbing is bad manners for liberals, it is entrepreneurial enterprise for conservatives.

As for Benghazi, what help could have been sent? Embassies all over the world were frantically sending signals that they were being besieged, To the war room in Washington, it must have been difficult to set priorities in all the confusion.. And there were no military units on standby that could have made it there in enough time.

Contrary to Issa's lies, Hillary wasn't watching it all on satellite tv, and paratroopers in battle dress weren't waiting on warmed-up helicopters offshore and being forbidden to engage by evil liberals.

Nothing could have been done about it that night because nothing had been planned or drilled, the testimony in the hearings made that clear, at least, in the testimony that Issa tried to redact, and the failure for a plan to be ready to implement was not only due to GOP budget cuts, but would have probably not been executed anyway due to the confusion and crossed signals of that night. You've been in the military, you know how well the command structure is at planning missions and executing them, and how poor it is at improvising them on the fly.

As for Reagan's complicity in Lebanon, he can't really be blamed, any more than Carter can be blamed for the failure of the Iran hostage rescue mission, or Bush blamed for 9/11, or Hillary/Obama blamed for Benghazi, which is my whole point. Sometimes the enemy catches us off guard. That's his job, and he's not stupid. The Monday morning QB can always cherry pick the facts to slander someone after the fact. Carter was blamed, Hillary/Obama were blamed. Reagan and Bush weren't.
