Journal smittyoneeach's Journal: Senator McCain really should follow damn_registrars 18
Won't somebody explain to that tired old warhorse that nothing whatsoever happened in Benghazi?

Harry Reid is probably going to have to think about Senate discipline, and have McCain hauled out in an I-love-me jacket.
If McCain would just read damn_registrars, he could come to grips with his inner partisan hack, and just Let It Go.

I mean, you can squeeze a couple more news cycles of budget crisis avoidance out of Benghazi, but that's about the only benefit I can see.

Is that a difference that makes any difference?
Yes, it does make a difference. Not everyone is so exceptionally partisan that they will search for an excuse to start impeachment at every opportunity they come across. Not everyone is so exceptionally partisan to see Benghazi as having anywhere remotely enough significance to merit consideration of an impeachment hearing.
What would be the point of JSM3 bleating in public if the "I" word wasn't in the back of his mind?
Just because he doesn't feel all the information is out does not mean that he feels it could warrant impeachment. To point out only one example from the previous administration plent

I don't think even the hardest-core anti-Bush guys were calling for his impeachment at every opportunity during the Bush regime.
The 9/11 truthers do exist, and 9/11 did have a thorough investigation [wikipedia.org]. Whether or not Benghazi merits similar treatment is your call.

Which makes you more hard-core anti-democrat than the hardest of hard-core anti-bushes were.
though pretty well nobody dared to suggest that his crappy explanation was hiding an impeachable offense.

I'm glad you mentioned the 9/11 committee. Do you recall that it took over a year for the committee to be formed, and more than another year and a half before their report was released? Do you recall anyone calling for Bush to be impeached during that interim period?
Benghazi happened less than 6 months ago, and people were screaming impeachment over it barely a month in.

I'm not in favor of political parties. Kind of like government, they're a necessary evil. I'm not sure how you're measuring degrees of "anti" here. Certainly, I've been slow to grasp just what a sad pack of Progressive sycophants the GOP elite are.

Unless this devleoped in the past 24 hours, your history of hatred towards all things (D) clearly refutes your claim.

You are anti-democrat by virtue of your dedication to tearing down anyone with a (D) at pretty well any opportunity.

Mania? Hardly. I'm just trying to get you to recognize your own obsession with impeaching anyone who is not of your party. We have the likely most conservative president our country has ever had, and you are stopping at no ends to throw him out because he came from the par

There you go making unsupported assumptions, again.
Reasoned, in terms of a presented argument, is when you can support your conclusions. When you say "Obama is from Mars because townhall.com says so" that is not a reasoned argument. Conversely when you say "Obama was born in Hawaii because his birth certificate says so", that is a reasoned argument.
Similarly, your statement about 'reasoned' is not a reasoned argument.

There is nothing reasoned in the arguments you have presented as of late.
