Journal damn_registrars's Journal: Hey Slashdor Conservatives - You Forgot Something! 9

So your new BFF has the white house, and your team has the house and senate. They've shown a mastery for grandstanding and overall work-avoidance. But there is an important bit that has been conveniently ignored this past few months that we were previously told was so mind-shatteringly important.

Benghazi!

SlashCons were practically tripping over each other the past several years to see who could come up with the newest excuse to spend more millions of dollars on the investigation. They were certain that there was something in there worthy of criminal prosecution of Obama, Clinton, their spouses, their children, their pets, and their furniture.

Soooooooo ... where is the investigation? Where is the prosecution? If there was something criminal done, it was still done. It didn't go away, it still needs to be prosecuted, right? We were told it was of the utmost importance before - vastly more important that silly constitutional duties like holding hearings for SCOTUS appointments or anything like that.

Come on, bring it! What are you afraid of all of a sudden?

  • I can't find that on the map [archive.org]

  • Easier to just mention Obama and Hillary every once in a while to rile up the red-state rubes (like railgunner & fusta), and much cheaper too!
    • Every once in a while - like every fucking day? It's hard to find a day that some conservative talking head isn't saying something derogatory about either Hillary or President Lawnchair.

      And as for much cheaper, when did that become important? They happily threw many many millions of dollars down a hole and set it ablaze in their endless Benghazi witch hunt. Why did it suddenly end? If the democrats had a spine between them they would start calling out the GOP on neglecting the legacies of the people w

        Still cheaper than investigations and hearings, y'know, actual work.

          Cheaper? Sure. The GOP showed how much TV exposure they can get for free in the 2016 election cycle. But at some point their own electorate will notice how staggeringly little they have accomplished with all the power.

          That is one bizarre sentence. You actually want them wasting their time just like you complained about the GOP doing?

          In this case, I'm fine with them wasting their time. The democrats are going up against he party of maximum dickishness. Calling out their hypocrisy and lack of morality is fine. It's not like there is anything pertaining to Benghazi to investigate, at this point it is more important t

            Judging by history, that's one hell of a theoretical point far far into the future. Remember: abortion is still legal, gays can marry, and there was a black dude in the White House and conservatives keep voting Republican.
    • :-D Hoo-ah! That's funny as hell!
