Al is full of it. 1st 2 minutes was an overdose of bull for me. who the heII watches that crappy show full of lies & obamaganda? 970,000 peeps that i almost feel sorry for. but hey, we make our own decisions on what to believe. some of our choices however suck.
*US: Warships move toward Libya, consulate in Berlin evacuated
No matter when you turned to MSNBC today the discussion was about Romney’s statement on the embassy violence,,if your turn right now it’s as guaranteed as hitting a bull in the ass with a bass fiddle,,that’s what their talking about…
Wow Early Start/Starting Point broke 300—still a terrible program.
not their,,before the grammer arrest me…
they’re
@Paul G
Romney is not backing down, in fact he is picking up his attack. I hope he goes even higher and speaks on this every day. I somehow remember then Sen Obama within the hour bashing Bush for the Troop surge.
I also remember not a peep from the MSM saying it was wrong.
Who Anthony is backing off that story?? Probably doesn’t matter if they had ammo or not, they were not ready for it and there weren’t enough of them. Obama was caught with his pants down on 9/11 of all days. Incompetent appeaser. Might try going to an intelligence briefing every now and then.
Jeffie, do me a favor and hold your breath until I care about one of your posts. Thanks.
OBlamer, when Police Arrested his Perfessor Pal “the Police acted stupidly”
….(before all the facts were in)…now opines that Mitt Romney “shoots 1st
and aims after”….Hypocrisy, thy name is “OBlamer”.
@Paul G
“not their,,before the grammer arrest me…”
Grammar not grammer.
Sorry I couldn’t resist. We ALL make mistakes. The spelling and grammar police suck with the possible exception of when they correct someone who has gone on a rant about how dumb so and so politician and host is or how stupid another commenter here is. Then they get what they deserve.
*I deliberately did not reread this post or pay attention to red underlined words in a show of solidarity.
@AppleStinx: “The Factor” beats David Letterman!
*Congress to Block Obama Admin. Welfare Law Changes
*Obama Expands ATF’s Right to Seize Guns Without Due Process
*Earth Explodes all life dead
One of these are false, you get to guess
lol @ DB
Well it appears you are backing down a bit when you second sentence reads “Probably doesn’t matter if they had ammo or not……”.
Read the Pentagon’s statement on the matter, or as reported in Mother Jones (yeah I know…) “State’s own guidelines for Marine security guards (PDF) require that any duty assigned to them “shall not contravene established Department or Marine Corps policy and shall not unduly jeopardize the safety or well-being of any Marine”.
I trust Pentagon statements by our men in uniform over unnamed sources from blogs anyday.
Major Breaking story
*Monk Found Wandering Naked After Eating Hallucinogenic Berries…
Rats? You left your berries out again
*NYC to Regulate Circumcision…
Panel Unanimously Decides to Regulate a Circumcision Ritual
so far NY has banned
Salt
Smoking
Fat
Cooking in Lard
Sugar
Large Soft Drinks
and now the ever dangerious “Circumcision” is next.

FBC is not carried by many cable outlets. They are way up the dial here in Conn. I watch CNBC because it is close to my other viewing stations in the morning. I don’t watch much money news anyway. When you don’t have any there is very little need.
BBL..
Who else wants a Blizzard from DQ?

Anthony
If a bigot uses perfect grammar, spelling and sentence structure does that make him smart and well informed.
If someone achives great things with his mind but lacks spelling and grammar skills does that make him/her an idiot.

DB makes a good point about not being prepared. Watch the O’Rielly Super Bowl interview. It is stricking just how naive our President is about the brotherhood in Egypt.
Thanks a bunch Coffee Steve!!! You broke my alternator and I am at the shop getting it fixed!! Fax over the $450 please, and YES I want something from DQ!!!!!!!!!!!!
