Comedian. Work in perpetual progress.

While the President was giving a speech with the Turkish Prime Minister on Thursday, a bit of rain started to fall on President Obama. So he asked if he could get some cover, because he didn’t want to take a risk of a soaking down pour. A couple of Marines took some umbrellas and came over to provide said cover. Then the conservative world exploded with outrage and criticism of the move.  Read the rest HERE——> (http://wbsm.com/umbrella-gate-is-the-latest-scandal-to-rock-obamas-white-house/) (The people trying to create a scandal about this are really assholes)

4 Things We Should Remember When Arguing About Politics

Republicans Altered Benghazi Emails, CBS News Report Claims

One day after The White House released 100 pages of Benghazi emails, a report has surfaced alleging that Republicans released a set with altered text.

CBS News reported Thursday that leaked versions sent out by the GOP last Friday had visible differences than Wednesday’s official batch. Two correspondences that were singled out in the report came from National Security Adviser Ben Rhodes and State Department Spokeswoman Victoria Nuland.

The GOP version of Rhodes’ comment, according to CBS News: “We must make sure that the talking points reflect all agency equities, including those of the State Department, and we don’t want to undermine the FBI investigation.”

The White House email: “We need to resolve this in a way that respects all of the relevant equities, particularly the investigation.”

The GOP version of Nuland’s comment, according to CBS News: The penultimate point is a paragraph talking about all the previous warnings provided by the Agency (CIA) about al-Qaeda’s presence and activities of al-Qaeda.”
