    Defend Rice from the Republicans but how did your Dear Leader classify Ambassador Steven's death? "A bump in the road" (To re immaculation!) "Not optimal" Since Stevens and the Seals who died most likely were not Obama supporters, your Dear Leader allowed them to be slaughtered then cover it up simply to not have dead Muslim bodies on the world stage so close to re immaculation.

    This is who, what, you Parrots blindly support! Their blood is STILL on your Dear Leaders hands!
