Benghazi And The Run-Up To 9/11

Dear A,

Excellent observation! .... even if I did have spike and hammer in hand.

Consider the context.

In the weeks before 9/11, CIA Director, George Tenet was running around "with his hair on fire" trying to get the Bush White House to acknowledge the pending al Qaeda attack -- http://www.salon.com/2004/06/05/tenet_3/ 

Now, 12 years later, the Grand Old Party ("old" verging "senescent") argues that the poorly handled tragedy of four dead Americans is grounds for impeachment.

Aquinas observed that sin is invariably accompanied by "loss of perspective/proportion."

Nowadays, The Party of Lincoln dedicates itself to the deliberate, diligent destruction of perspective and proportion.

Why would the nation not be going to hell?

Excellent. Thanks. Hillary mentioned 32 times in first hearing. Remember the obvious intelligence failures prior to 9/11? "Failure to connect the dots. . ." We didn't try to crucify W. . .
