NO DOUBLE STANDARD ?

One of the most revealing statements made by Hilary Clinton during her Congressional hearing was, "what does it matter", when asked if she could shine some light on whether or not those people who attacked the Consulate in Benghazi were merely demonstrators or was that event actually a military style attack by El Queda terrorists. "What does it matter...." ?

It has always been accepted as an attack on sovereign soil of the nation itself, if there were ever an attack on the diplomatic Consulate of the Ambassador allowed to be in a specific country. An attack on the American Consulate in Bengahzi is considered an attack on America. So, it matters who did what, and for the Secretary of the State to treat the killing of Americans who were sent as diplomats to Lybia as nothing, is appalling and disgusting. She should have been removed from her position for being too stupid to know what was going on, in the first place.

However, my more poignant point is this: if Democrats can treat this murder as a matter that gives the Secretary of State AND our President, little pause, why don't they also treat slavery as a past matter that doesn't need to be regurgitated? Why is the killing of an American Ambassador and the military people who tried to protect him of such little concern to the Secretary of State, yet when she was campaigning for the Democratic nod for the Presidency, she went to black communities, talking jibe, and trying to sound early southern, as if trying to reach the hearts of those who were wrongly affected by the ills of a new country? She wanted to "relate" to "them". Why doesn't the Secretary of State, relate to the Americans surviving those being killed under her watch? Were they the wrong nationality? Were they unable to help her in her future political career? Help me understand why she, and the rest of the Democrats who seem unable to find fault with her actions, should not be brought up on charges for negligence of duty, gross irresponsibility, neglecting the requests of the Ambassador whose life was then taken, because of her inaction?

If a Republican candidate said something like "kabooki", the news media would go all out to slander the man and ruin his career, looking into what language the remark might offend, even when the remark was just a simple gobbledegook to make a point. But let diplomatic Americans be raped, tortured and killed at the hands of a known enemy, and nothing is said; worse, the person responsible for making certain something like that doesn't occur, has oozing accolades poured on her, adnauseum.

People, our system is broken! I mean it is broken, bad, when this sort of thing occurs by the people who are supposed to defend our Constitution and our Country.

The future of America, looks very dim, when the Secretary of State can "get away" with not doing her job to the extent people got killed because of her negligence and then her party (elected officials) defend her. I can't say it more strongly............our system is broken and needs to be fixed or changed.

The President who appointed her to office is no less culpable because he has had an innocent man arrested, prosecuted and put in jail for 1 year, for false allegations made by the State Department, and the President himself, accusing that man of inciting the riot on the Embassy that they knew was false and was actually an attack by ElQueda on the Embassy; and for this to happen; for a man to go to jail charged with a crime he didn't commit; for the President to repeatedly assert on national TV that this man was at fault cannot be overlooked. This President and his appointees, deliberately lied to the American people, pointed the blame somewhere else, and do not be fooled......this can happen to you.

Not too long ago, the Congress and the President signed into law, a bill that states an American citizen can be arrested, not charged with a crime, and whisked away to an unknown location for an indefinite period of time. This man was openly accused of something he was not responsible for, but I'm telling you, those politicians you elected have made it so, no charges have to be leveled. You can be whisked away during the night without the opportunity of charges or a defense. No lawyers will be provided, and no one will know where they have taken you; this by the people who have sworn to defend the Constitution Article 1 section 9..."The writ of Habeas Corpus shall not be suspended, unless in cases of Rebellion or Invasion the public safety may require it".

Executive Orders has been another way Presidents have violated the Constitution, but the surprising thing is no single politician has brought charges against any administration that does so;  the system is broken, bad.

The Tea Party has been a real threat to both political parties because those parties can see their power and elitism being taken away from them, by the actions of grass-root people, who understand the system is broken and want it restored. Both parties will lose when the American citizens win. But every effort is being made to demean the "Tea Party" people; to treat them as terrorists (which is how they will get arrested as I've outlined above); the system is broken.

I don't know where he is, and I can only expect either God will provide such a person to step forward so the American people can rally behind him, OR it is Gods plan for the demise and destruction of a nation that has turned its back on Him, first. If the latter is the case, then soon we shall see the Armageddon so many religions talk about, even the religion of Islam is looking for their Imam and Messiah to come, but according to their beliefs, that can only happen if and when the world is in chaos. How far do you think we are from that occurring? Do you think American politicians are playing a part in this, whether knowingly or not? Does it look possible that what is happening in the Middle East, can happen here?

Hey, "what does it matter"? Just as long as we move forward, right?
