Discussion: Erickson Reacts To McCarthy's Benghazi Comments: 'You Want This Guy As Speaker?'

I imagine that Hillary’s October 22 Inquisition in front of these men will now have a new fulcrum from which she can hoist their petards.

Yep. And more than 20 wounded according to CNN. They’re saying they have the shooter in custody too, but don’t know if he/she is the only one out there.

My, my. Just a couple days ago, they were celebrating and overtly disparaging John Boehner. And talking trash at Mitch McConnell. How the worm has turned! As pathetic as Boehner may be, he wouldn’t have made such a rookie mistake.

You mean they did a mass shooting just to distract everybody ?
Seriously I just looked it up and it’s true. While here in Florida they are in the process of approving a campus carry law . What could go wrong . Just remember this -
David Wheeler Newtown dad
“I would like every parent in this country — that’s 150 million people,” Wheeler told CBS’s Scott Pelley. “I would like them to look in the mirror and that’s not a figure of speech, Scott. I mean find a mirror in your house and look in it and look in your eyes and say ‘this will never happen to me, this will never happen in my school, this will never happen in my community,’ and see if you actually believe that. And if there’s a shadow, the slightest shadow of doubt in what you’ve said? Think about what you can do to change that,” Wheeler said. “It is going to happen again. It’s going to happen again. Every time, it’s somebody else’s school, it’s somebody else’s community, it’s somebody else’s town. Until one day, you wake up and it’s not.”

I’m trying to decide whether Erick “Erick” Erickson is as completely dense as he seems with this ridiculous claim that the latest – what is it now, the 8th? – special (shhhh! GOP) Benghazi investigating committee exists for any reason other than what McCarthy admitted. Or if he’s just trying to help spread the bullsh*t around.

The irony is that each new condemnation from Republicans does little to restore the fig leaf of the investigation’s supposed integrity but does plenty to keep the story of McCarthy’s inadvertently honest admission going.

Good, more criticism of the “you can’t say that out loud you dipstick” variety.

Well, I guesses that settles the issue. There really is a vast right-wing media conspiracy.

Well DUH!
Erickson wants a true Fascist like Scalise to be the Speaker.
The spectacle of Eric Erickson LECTURING someone on “having a problem with the truth” is the very definition of: Chutzpah.

“Ignore the man behind the curtain!” Always feel free to ignore Erick Son of Erick’s bleating…

Translation: He spoke the truth and we can’t have that in GOP leadership.

The concern is as always over Republican stuff. The American stuff can wait.
