I watched the debates last evening and I am stunned at how brilliant Sen Rubio

comes across. Actually it wasn't much of a debate simply because CNBC tried to turn it into the theatre of the absurd. And wound up with egg on their face. I expected serious questions about fiscal policy and serious attempts to nail down candidates about what they planned to do to balance the budget, reduce waste, and shore up social security going forward. Instead we got foolishness about comic books and so forth. Somebody at CNBC let their politics get in the way of doing what they were on the hook to do and that was deliver to the American people serious info about what their network specializing in. And they wound up looking like a bunch of rubes. Frankly Rubio won the evening and John K comes across as a professional and another guy who rose above expectations was the energetic and charmingly effective governor of NJ. There is some serious promise and talent in this group. And then you have Trump. Carson is probably one of the best humans alive but he is no better than Hillary as a person who is prepared to be president. Don't get me wrong he is X 1000 a better human being but compared to a serious and knowledgable guy like Rubio or JK, he comes up short.
 
He was totally prepared for Charlie Rose. He looks very professional in this clip.


Charlie Rose seems to have a hard time understanding the definition of a lie, I guess. It's amazing the hoops the partisan Dems will jump thru to avoid facing the FACT that everyone involved knew the spontaneous protest over a movie story was pure fiction from the very beginning.

Rubio did shut him down when he flatly stated that NO CIA briefing ever mentioned an offensive movie being the motivation. I guess Rose is accustomed to Republicans backing down when challenged for the fear of being called mean spirited. It was refreshing to see a Pub sticking to his guns when the facts are clearly on his side.

Rubio not only made the truth stick he served Rose with an instantaneous explanation of why. Rose was his stooge. During the campaign Obama and his administration were copping the narrative of any expose' or criticism of Islam was what was the catalyst for Islamic violence. That was the stage of denial they were at. So they latched onto the video to excuse off their inattention to security. Hillary was far from alone in pushing this narrative among government officials. And she 100% knew better immediately.
 
Debate sucked. You think Hitlery would get a similar question the GOP got the other night?

"Mrs. Clinton, who is the worst President, your husband, Carter or Obama?"
 
Rubio isn't cut out to be a Senator, He's too impatient, He is by nature a take charge executive. The guy is sharp, hungry and he might be the guy left standing at the Republican Convention.
If he is elected POTUS he's going to need to temper His edge though. He'll find out what Bill Clinton learned early on, there are established forces in Washington that won't simply fall in line with his agenda.
I'll say this much, I'll study his positions closer now. It doesn't matter how impressive a candidate is if he/she has different views on where we should head as a Nation than I do.

He LOOKED good in his explanation, but the facts aren't as cut and dried as his sharp retort made them seem.
There had in fact been large riots at 2 embassies in the region ignited by the silly video.
It wouldn't be odd if the attack had been planned and still been sparked by the cartoon, or whatever it was.
I wouldn't doubt there was a narrative coming from the executive branch either, there usually is.
None of that would have made a material difference though, that is where the review should focus. Again though, everybody has a narrative in D.C. , The Republican narrative is to single out Hillary's role and use it politically.

The whole "caused by the video" nonsense was so contrived. When muslims were being interviewed, it sounded like a scripted response.

Kinda like when people riot in towns, looting and burning down businesses. The canned response is "because of racial equality".

Most anarchists could care less about social equality or whether mohammed is placed in a cartoon. It only provides an excuse to cause destruction.

Benghazi was so well orchestrated one would have to be an idiot to not understand that, in my opinion. Of course, our country, fed by the media, takes it all as truth and thinks the networks are giving us facts. They aren't.

Case in point the school officer who manhandled the student in the classroom. It was all about the evil officer. No mention at all at what caused this interaction between the two.

There are always two sides, but the media plants on one and we are left to seek the truth for ourselves. By alas, the sheep just key on the lie and it leads to more turmoil.

Greatest country in the world. More freedom to be what you want to be than any other country in the world...... and we complain about our lot in life. It just doesn't add up.

1) Its spiritual - we can't be that confused as to what truth is.
2) Its political - those in power want to keep power. Those not, want it
3) Its racial - we continue to play the race card and lay ones lot in life on slavery from the 1800's and never on ones unwillingness to get a free education and be responsible in the 2000's.
4) Its manipulation - those that hate us help fuel discord. Any discord. This is where those wanting truth should look around at who is funding the riots and protests. What other countries are involved? But we just join in because we want something and don't care.
5) Its entitlement - we have created a class of people, generation by generation, that don't equate money with work. Money is associated with what the government is suppose to do for them. We have created this.
6) Its image - we seek approval or give approval base on what someone says over what they do. What they wear rather than how they act.

And I don't blame just Hillary. Like you said, it is the DC narrative that did this. All are at blame. The Hillary attack is to try and cut the Dem's off at the base and move the election. Very similar to the "read my lips" Dem campaign against Bush. It was the Dem's policy, yet they passed the blame to him.

It's all politics and I don't trust any of them. I like Trump only because his has balls and is an outsider. I like Rubio, but he doesn't fit the DC mold. I really don't know that much about Sanders, but I will look into him. I lean Repub because of conservative issues, but will vote for anyone who can fix us financially and get us to where we only spend what we take in. It is that simple.

Good day to you sir.

I think You're using western thinking to understand a small number a radical Muslims, I'm not sure it translates. They clearly react violently to disrespect of their profit. This isn't like what We see in this country where hoodlums use any excuse to burn and pillage.

Sorry. I agree with you there and did a poor job of explaining myself.

Small group yes, but not one to storm the embassy. It was just too contrived. Never has Obama been has direct or disrespectful to the Muslim issue regarding Mohammed as he was in response to this issue. He responded as if America was protecting this video. He came across as almost Ronald Reagan in how he responded. That is the only time we have seen him vocal and hardliners in defending our Constitutional freedoms openly to the world and the only time I have heard him openly defy the Muslim faith.

It was well scripted to take an independent video and somehow make it an "America" shot against Muslims.

Then Behghazi happened and all the bravado stopped and the video was blamed. We were made to feel ashamed of ourselves for disrespecing them as we did.

I don't know. Just a little contrived.
