I'm just wondering, because it's getting a little embarrassing.

I'm bringing the spelling of the country you're claiming to discuss. This would seem like fundamental "knowledge" should you want to make any claims about it.

As it stands, with "Lybia," your credibility to speak on the matter is shot to shit.

know-nothingness, rather than about whatever trollish point you were desperately trying to make about the mythical land of "Lybia." That's you getting owned. Face off.

I'm worried about the dude who can't spell Lybia, er, I mean, Libya.

The difference is that that's how you really thought it was spelled, and everybody knows it. The only conclusion one could draw is that you never read shit about it, that you literally know nothing about the entire country, which makes you the know-nothing that you are.

during the hearings it came out that there was a CIA Rapid Response Team on the grounds at an annex.
So they did have protection there

I'm as liberal as one can get. I love Obama and Biden. But this is a good question because it's a place that R/R could attack Obama and make it stick. The only powerful point from Ryan the entire debate was the hit on Obama's response to the Benghazi attack. Obama better have a strong answer for that in the next debate. We have to anticipate R/R attacks and be ready for them. Joe did awesome tonight, but that is a weak spot that has me worried.

And I think picking on someone for a spelling error is juvenile and a distraction from the real issue.

Biden made a point of saying they said what the intel told them. This was the first time I heard there was no protesting going on
