Somerby'...You're missing the point entirely. Somerby's initial post--like almost every post--is about the ineptitude of high-paid media figures. In this case, his post is about groaning errors made in reporting what Ms. Rice said, not about Ms. Rice herself or her previous career.Quaker in a Basementnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8611810694571930415.post-46688058692345471742012-11-15T16:26:52.715-05:002012-11-15T16:26:52.715-05:00tinears, you haven't shown anything interestin...tinears, you haven't shown anything interesting about Rice w/r/t Benghazi. That's beyond dispute.<br /><br />You'd prefer to talk about Rwanda. That's fine, but irrelevant to your misrepresentations.<br /><br />When called on them, you ask essentially "well, how has the Howler criticized Rice?"<br /><br />But since no one is making any such claim, no evidence is required. <br /><br />On the other hand, you were making stupidly false assertions about what Somerby has actually done. You have no evidence for any of them.<br /><br />So you produce your last post, best interpreted as bitter tears.<br /><br />Trying to equate discussion of press misdeeds in the Benghazi case and affirmative defense of other cases, is the weakest, palest "argument" ever to see daylight. Pathetic.<br /><br />Get back to the basement, sad little vampire.

It's entirely irrelevant to this topic. <br />Bob was merely arguing how one morning's TV appearances and her statements have been twisted and cherry-picked to fit a certain narrative.

Please direct me to the Howler's ...Anonymous, <br /><br />Please direct me to the Howler's first critical words about Saint Susan... And when you airbrush "genocide" out of Rice's career, you are making a defense. Not a legitimate defense, but you are defending nevertheless. <br /><br />One of the best features of the Howler is its position against tribal politics and for a more rational approach to public debate. The Howler says Rice's statements about Benghazi contained "very few hard and fast claims." I don't think that's a big plus. While the GOP may have their own reasons for spotlighting Rice's statements, it's Pres Obama that may be appointing her Sec'y of State, so concern about her forthrightness is not just obsessing over a TV interview during a past campaign. <br /><br /><br /><br /><br />tinboxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12497368524093391053noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8611810694571930415.post-66498308576969701502012-11-15T13:58:38.273-05:002012-11-15T13:58:38.273-05:00If what Susan Rice said (or rather didn't say)...If what Susan Rice said (or rather didn't say) is taken out of the picture, then the whole Benghazi cover-up conspiracy theory no longer has any legs, and must fly right out the window. That's why McCain and others must keep Susan Rice as a key actor in their crazy picture at all costs. There's too much to lose. Benghazi is Obama's 9/11. It's the thing the Democratic president fucked up that makes Bush's fuckup...well... That's. Hoh. Kay.

So that's how you welcome us to your world made of straw!<br /><br />None of what you're writing here is relevant or fact-based.<br /><br />Where exactly are you finding the implication that Rice is "Sainted" by Somerby? That Rice is doing a "wonderful" job? Or that her entire career is being defended?<br /><br />Nowhere?<br /><br />Got it. <br /><br />You are just rankled that in pointing out the unending, mass mainstream media lying about Rice's statements regarding Benghazi, Somerby doesn't ALSO discuss what *you* think is really important about Benghazi.

He didn't get it any more right than people reading other plausible meanings into Rice's statement. <br /><br />I don't have a problem with Rice's statements on some TV shows. But I also don't see why Howler treats her as Saint Susan and not just like any other ambitious political climber. Just because partisan GOP attacks on her are hypocritical doesn't mean she is actually doing a wonderful job or speaking forthrightly to the American people herself. <br /><br />Why in all these posts on Rice can't the Howler mention Rwanda or why Mr Somerby is so passionate in his defense of Rice's career?tinboxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12497368524093391053noreply@blogger.com
