Chris Matthews: Ron Johnson certainly did give a “pissant performance” in questioning Hillary today
posted at 8:11 pm on January 23, 2013 by Allahpundit
Via Newsbusters, here’s the media bookend to Terry Moran’s snotty tweet this morning questioning Rand Paul’s foreign-policy credentials after he had the audacity to criticize Her Majesty. It’s one thing for Matthews to coo over the Clintons, a role to which he’s well accustomed, it’s another to do it in lieu of demanding a straight answer to a question about a national-security debacle which even big-media reporters acknowledge was highly relevant. He goes so far as to question the legitimacy of Johnson’s election because it occurred during a midterm, even though Johnson got hundreds of thousands more votes in 2010 than Russ Feingold did when he won a midterm election in 1998. Actual quote: “That guy doesn’t represent anybody.” He doesn’t represent anybody when he’s … asking the secretary of state to explain why the White House’s original story about what caused a terror attack suspiciously changed? By “anybody,” does he mean “anybody who works for MSNBC”?
Sit through to the end or you’ll miss him equating aggressive interrogation of a public servant about a foreign-policy fiasco with living in a cave.

Has the IRS reported to DOJ yet on the content of their prayers?

If any money changed hands for weapons, wanna bet said reimbursements were in the form of campaign donations? Now that would truly be the end to end all ends!

Sooo… Obama, Holder and Clinton; who are the other two guys? Oops, my bad, I meant James Rosen, Sharyl Atkisson, Major Garrett – who are the other two?

Why should these guys worry? They’ve been laughing in public for almost a year now.

Why doesn’t al Jazeera or some other Arabic company interview these guys and find out what really happened?
At this point I think al Jazeera’s word on this is no more or less reliable than that of this fascist administration.

If the CIA was trying to recover arms, or the STate Dept. wanted it as an outpost, all I can say is…so what? Somebody should have protected them!
Surely, Hillary didn’t deny protection to teach the CIA a lesson, did she?

Ya know, I would just rather this administration just SHUT UP rather than continuing to open their mouths and spew shi’ite at me, believing I am completely stupid.
We have video / pictures of guys carrying AK-47s and rocket launchers. They have video / pictures of guys dragging Stevens through the Street. Several of the perpetrators went on THEIR version of ‘Oprah’ & THEIR ‘Sunday Talk Shows’ after this attack. we KNOW who they are – some of them. We have a cell at Gitmo just waiting for them…what we DON’T have is a President who is NOT an ‘Islamic Extremist Sympathizer’ & who is willing to protect American lives.
As President, Obama armed Mexican Drug Cartels who used those weapons to wipe out towns, kill men/women/children, & kill a U.S. Border Patrol Agent – 300+ and counting. He protected the Ft. Hood terrorist by calling his attack on troops prepping to deploy a case of ‘work-place violence’. He practically handed Stevens & the other Americans over to Al Qaeda as a sacrifice by asking THEM to ‘protect’ him, by ignoring 2 previous terrorist attacks, by refusing to provide additional security over & over again, & by betraying/abandoning Americans who fought for their lives for 7-8 hours while waiting for help that never came!
Whether it is our lives or our Constitutional Rights, this President has preyed upon, attacked, & sacrificed anything/everyone again and again to push his agenda & protect his ‘friends’.

All me & my friends need to ‘prosecute’ them is a good set of coordinates! :)
