   Oh my goodness, armed men in trucks with anti-aircraft guns mounted on them...dressed in army fatigues...that sounds rather like an army, doesn't it? It's a good thing that watch-dog groups pointed out that this peaceful protest was a bit over the top.
   Do you think that the citizens of Libya fully appreciate all we have done for them–from America, I mean? Isn't Libya where Benghazi is?

   Is there any way that one could have anticipated this spontaneous protest? Have they been watching movies or something?

     It is proven that the celebration of birthdays is healthy. Statistics show that those people who celebrate the most birthdays become the oldest. - S. den Hartog, Ph D. Thesis Universtity of Groningen.

     Bubba had long heard the stories of an amazing 21st Birthday family tradition. His father, grandfather, and great-grandfather had all been able to walk on water on their 21st birthday. On that special day, they'd each walked across the lake to the bar on the far side for their first legal drink. So when Bubba's 21st birthday came around, he and his mate Jim Bob took a boat out to the middle of the lake, Bubba stepped out of the boat, and nearly drowned! Jim Bob just barely managed to pull him to safety. Furious and confused, Bubba went to see his grandmother. "Grandma," he said, 'it's my 21st birthday, so why can't I walk across the lake like my father, his father, and his father before him?" Granny looked deeply into Bubba's troubled eyes and answered, "Because your father, your grandfather, and your great-grandfather were born in January,when the lake is frozen, and you were born in July.

   Is it any wonder that people from the Obama admin are threatening "whistle blowers" with retaliation if they tell the truth on the whole Benghazi affair? No. No wonder at all.

   They can insist that former Gadhafi government people never be allowed in government again if they like, but some of them may have just been harmless bureaucrats. They are also the only people who know how to do a lot of the day-to-day duties of government.

   Is there any wonder about a family from Russia collecting more than a hundred thousand dollars in assistance programs all the while plotting to kill us? And morons on here claim there is no problem with welfare in America. Can we say ignorance is bliss?

   Legacy of NATO war in Libya. The consequences "wise men" couldn't see or did not want to see in their haste to remove Ghaddafi.
   Aiding and abetting Al-Qaeda where we want is both foolish & criminal.

    Now the 'suspicion' of use of small amounts of sirin in Syria, by whom is unknown & the 'crossing red line' is being drummed up to stage a similar folly in Syria.

    Syrian 'implosion' another folly the consequences of which the world would have to bear for decades.

    In desperation and acting in proxy as we always do, the suspicion of use of small amounts of sarin in Syria is now being drummed up to intervene similarly.

    Good grief! Joey, are you a fan of Sarah Palain? You must be a part of the Tea Party movement. And why would they appreciate anything we've done? The U.S. military has been a bully for too long.Those Washington thugs got to go. It's as simple as that!
