Conservatives Totally Bust Democrats For Covering Up Gruber Hearing With Torture Report
The Senate Intelligence Committee released its torture report today, officially launching “rectal feeding” as a trending topic (and hopefully not a boomlet in tapas restaurants), and fulfilling an Obama administration plot to cover up the Gruber hearings. So say the razor-sharp conservative denizens of Twitter, including one-time Republican presidential frontrunner Herman Cain:
Hey. Let’s release the ‘torture’ report and maybe they won’t pay attention to the Gruber testimony. http://t.co/xKUoteIFeK

Man, just when America was finally about to exact justice on the man who blew up Nakatomi Plaza, this happens.
Actually, the Gruber hearings they’re talking about are only slightly less stupid than holding a trial for the villain from Die Hard, “stupid” being the Word of the Day. The actual stated purpose of the hearing was to find out how a clerical error resulted in 400,000 out of 7 million ACA enrollments being overreported (hint: it was a clerical error), and to beat up on Jonathan Gruber for calling Americans “stupid” a bunch of times. Why would the Obama administration want to cover up the fact that Republican House Oversight and Reform Committee Chairman Darrel Issa (R-Calif.) is spending his time, and our money, on this?
We’ll skip over the gentleman from Nebraska asking Gruber, “Have you now, or have you ever been, laid?” and just cut right to…READ MORE

NO ONE CARES for another Republican fake scandal. The Gruber “comma” of things in life worth a darn, is merely a flicked flee of importance in comparison. Issa is a fool, and a petty ineffective charlatan. Once again, the obvious of nothing being there eludes this conspiracy tin foil hat wearing wing nuts. At the very least TODAY, what should echo loudly through out the world is—-CHENEY MUST BE PROSECUTED.

But….but…President Obama must be held accountable for the four deaths at Benghazi! It’s only fair, right?
…In all seriousness though, you’re right. It’s bullshit. We lost 3,000 people on 9-11 and the Bush Administration knew they were coming and did nothing. Think about it–there have been more “hearings” on Benghazi than there were on 9-11 and the 1983 Marine Corps barracks bombing in Beirut.
The sad fact is that our press corps is giving the GOP all the screen time they need to push this crap. And because of the election results of 2014, expect to hear more and more about Benghazi over the next two years. I wouldn’t be surprised if someone tries to pull an impeachment move over this.
