The wingnuts AND the so-called Librul Media have gone on for over a week about the *monumental* loss of the first debate, although with RYAN and other wingnuts if they "hold their own" and "no major gaffes" it's not considered a defeat for them. But if Dem BIDEN shows spunk he is said to be aggressive and disrespectful and "goofy instead of GORE's egregious contempt" (said BROKAW) for his opponent. BROKAW, btw, did not take the next step of acknowledging that Shrub's later record in power was EGREGIOUSLY CONTEMPTIBLE.
So besides that the whole world of worthless yakkers have been saying that at best BIDEN only TIED, did not WIN, and that surveys say RYAN is more likeable(!) especially with Independents and women who want everybody to work together(!), LIMBOsevic is harping on the Libya killings, the breach of security, and saying everything that happened is OBAMA's personal fault, here are some responses:
* RAYGUN had 299 armed services deaths in Beirut in 1983 and promptly issued a WITHDRAWAL.
* House Rethug obstructionism has been cutting funding for State Dept security since 2010.
