White House releases additional documents related to Benghazi response
Wed May 15, 2013
- I just have one observation: we were attacked by fanatical Islamic wingnuts on 9/11/01. We have subsequently seen smaller skirmishes on that anniversary almost every year since 2001. So, wouldn't common sense dictate that we should beef up ALL security at ALL of our embassies in the Middle East?? T …
Holder scolds Issa for 'shameful' demeanor
Wed May 15, 2013
- ALL OF YOU POSTERS - TAKE A GOOD, LONG HARD LOOK AT YOURSELVES. We Americans complain that our Congress is divided and gridlocked - that they resort to childish namecalling and partisan politics. But it seems to me that the American people are far worse. We are easily distracted from the true topic …
First Thoughts: Sidetracked
Wed May 15, 2013
- I know that I shouldn't be, but I am: I am shocked at how Americans are divided by their party lines on these 3 scandals. One's political views should NOT even be an issue on these fiascos! The IRS should NOT be targeting ANY group based on their political affiliations! Somebody screwed up on the wh …

Toomey: Background check plan failed because of Republican politics
Wed May 1, 2013

This is what our government has come down to: pandering to anyone and everyone to stay and power, and pointing fingers at each other, all the while, nothing is ac …

Gun vote stirs passion at Ayotte town hall meetings
Tue Apr 30, 2013
- What good are more gun laws going to do?? Since when did criminals wait around for a background check? Almost all of the major shootings have occurred with stolen weapons. When criminals want guns, they will find a way to get them, no matter what. I think the bigger issues are: 1) our culture of vio …
Obama reiterates chemical weapons would be 'game-changer'
Fri Apr 26, 2013
- I thought we were BROKE??? Why are we sticking our noses into a region that despises us? Sure, the rebels will ask for our help...and forget it very quickly. We'll be right back to being viewed as the 'Great Satan'. Hey, Obama! I have an idea! Why don't you quit pissing away Americans' hard-earned …
