A 339-page report released by Democrats on the House Select Committee on Benghazi mentions Donald Trump 23 times.

That total is more than the combined number of references to Tyrone Woods and Glen Doherty, two of the former Navy SEALs killed in the Sept. 11, 2012 attacks. Ambassador Chris Stevens, who was also killed during the onslaught, is mentioned 85 times in the report, according to Republicans on the Select Committee.

Democrats can't even keep Trump out of a Benghazi report. You can't make this stuff up.

They are scared to death of him.

You're a true pro at being right, but not for the reasons, nor in the fashion, that you think you are.

They might have to e-mail it to somebody and they don't want to get in trouble doing that. Not now!

Apparently I missed the joke; either at IT/not being able to send PDFs, or the entire Clinton email thing.

Government IT can't make good websites either, so I wouldn't be too surprised by anything else they put together.

I felt the URL was not legit but apparently that's what that committee decided on. Which brings up concerns within itself. Let alone the fact they have click bait partisan headlines on their side bar. Sadly its legit.

Trump has the big-eye but he seems really calm right now. Maybe he toked up before this speech.

An inordinate amount of "I don't give a *** about professionalism" is emanating from that site.

There is just so much wrong with that site I can't even begin. Amazing.

And that's with only a cursory scan of the top page.

Keep in mind there are 3 versions of this report floating around.

The version from the Democrats: assets.documentcloud.org/documents/2917673/Report-issued-by-Democrats-on-Benghazi-Committee.pdf


The version the majority of the Republicans agreed on: That's the link Flavin and I posted earlier.

A third version that was not signed off by the GoP members but was drafted by 2 "extremely conservative" is supposedly the most critical and condemning and I'm trying to find its link...

Gowdits because this "investigation" while it might have had some merit at some point is really just a Clinton witch hunt...

As any rational minded person would.

You know, when a charlatan is about to take the RNC nomination.

http://edition.cnn.com/2016/06/28/europe/turkey-istanbul-airport-attacks/index.html

Quote:
-- At least 10 people have been killed and 20 others injured in the attack at Istanbul's Ataturk Airport, Turkey's Justice Minister Bekir Bozdag told CNN.
The two suicide bombers were also killed. Bozdag said one attacker "first opened fire with a Kalashnikov then detonated himself" at the airport entrance.
In total two bombs exploded. One of them was located just outside the terminal on the pavement, the other was at the security gate at the entrance to the airport.
Authorities said no bombs exploded within the airport building itself, according to the minister

So lots of people dead in Turkey.

I'll offer one brief moment of sympathy and prayer....

....before I then wonder how such an act of terrorism was capable in a country that already its citizens from owning semi automatic "assault style" weapons.

Would it make you feel fuzzier inside if the method of death was by suicide bombers and the person wanted to talk about "guns"?

Guns and Turks go back like spinal cord and a car seat.

I.e there isn't a gun ban in Turkey.
