Subject:   Well, that is a Trump sacrifice!
Date:   8/1/2016 6:18:05 PM (updated 8/1/2016 6:30:33 PM)

In a CNN interview the when the question of whether Trump has "sacrificed" the CNN interviewer asked ''Is creating jobs a sacrifice?''

Trump surrogate Scottie Nell Hughes replied ''You know what, creating jobs caused Mr Trump to be at work, which cost him two marriages.  Time away from family to sit there and invest."

Well, that is quite a sacrifice on the Donald's part!

If a ''president'' Trump does as well choosing a cabinet as he does with choosing surrogates to speak for him, we are SCREWED!

At least he did not leave 4 people to die in Benghazi.

Even someone as intelligent as you know that spending too much time at work can take its toll on a marriage.  C'mon, use your brain.........

Trump had an affair with Maples while married to wife No 1. He said she was a great piece of azz. He and Maples divorced cause they were so different according to Maples. Tryng to equate working hard to losing a chld is something those of us who have worked hard for years fail to understand. For a parent, there is NOTHING worse than losing your child. NOTHING....

The Right fights for Right to Life and condemns the Left for murdering the unborn. Where is the same empathy for the loss of Kahn's son? Oh, but they got paid....big fkin deal. The fact remains they lost their son.

I feel for the mother who lost her son in Beghazi. It was a tragedy regardless of Clinton's involvement or lack thereof. When she spoke at the RNC, Trump called into FOX for a live interview. To listen to her you had to watch CNN. So much for thinking ahead.

Use yours.  You know that getting 2 divorces because you neglect your marriage is not considered a ''sacrifice''.  Some people who may or may not know say it wasn't the hard work but the hard foolin around that ended both marriages.  Bill Clinton can attest foolin around sure as he!!'s not a sacrifice!!

9 investigations costing the taxpayers ten of millions of dollars, including 7 led by Republican majority committees that bent over backward to ''get the goods'' on Clinton.  ALL concluded Clinton was NOT culpable for the loss of life in Benghazi and that there was no way to have intervened in time to stop the attack.  The security failure was criticized but no request for added security had been received from the consulate*. Now, l realize you think you know better than those 9 investigations...you don't!

* Three years in a row before Benghazi Obama asked for more funding for enhanced diplomatic security.  Each time the Republican congressional majority rejected the increase.

I actually read an interview with Marla Maples some years ago and she said they divorced because he is a workaholic.  You don't end up as successful as he is by not sacrificing your life for your work. 

And before you start jumping up and down about Kahn's son - he was not a child, he was a grown man with a career in the Army.  So yes, I'm sure that it was very painful for them to lose his son.  I know of a retired 4 star general whose granddaughter - an Army Lt, graduated from West Point, who lost her life when her helo was shot down in Iraq.  I have a friend whose Captain wife, another graduate of West Point was shot down flying surveillence in Colombia.  I had a friend, another helo pilot who was assigned to Ft. Cambell who died when his helo went down.   We have lost thousands of soldiers between Iraq and Afghanistan. So perhaps you can explain to me why Mr. Kahn's son is so much more special than any of the other soldiers and airman who have lost their life in defense of this country.  Because he is a Muslim?  We're supposed to be more broken up because he is a Muslim?  There are stories out connecting Kahn to Saudi Arabia.  His law practice has a contract with Saudi Arabia.  He gives to Saudi charities.  Does anyone remember the nationalities of those that hit the Twin Towers and the Pentagon on 9/11.  They were Muslims with ties to Saudi Arabia.

Good grief Hound. Have you become completely heartless? Of course IT IS EXACTLY BECAUSE THE KAHN'S SON WAS A MUSLIM that sets him apart.  It sets him apart because Trump has so demonized the Muslim religion, not just Muslim Jihadists.  Kahn's son's sacrifice is no more deserving of respect and reverance than any other life given in service to the nation, but he is deserving of just as much as any other inspite of the fact he is a follower of a faith Trump demonizes for political gain along with Mexicans and most other politicians Republican or Democrat!

Ther are bad Muslims out there, but there are Muslim heart surgeons, cops, teachers, architects, engineers and dull old accountants who love America and pay their taxes and are scared spitless that Trump might win this election!

The fact about muslims that most decent Americans abhor is the fact that 99.999% of all muslims refuse to speak out against the terrorism led by muslims.  And that includes your o-BAMMIE dictator.

OK,  once again for the really dense amongst us a.k.a archidiot.  Just putting on a uniform does not make one a hero and to proclaim it does diminishes those that truly are. Captain Khan was killed by a car bomb.  Tragic yes,  heroic no. He didn't throw himself in a grenade drag others out of the line of fire or run I to a firefight to assist others.  He was in the wrong place at the wrong time.  Tragic and the ultimate sacrifice,  but not heroic.  Maybe he dimwitted other acts of heroism but I doubt it because we haven't heard a single word about anything he did other than get killed.  Trust me if there was anything heroic abiut his service we would be hearing it 24/7.

Now tell me again what a heartless b@stard I am but first tell me about his heroism. Remember just serving is an act of bravery,  but not heroism.  Also remember we have an all volunteer millinery.  Nobody conscripted Cpt. Khan. Also he died in 2004.was the Fort Hood shooter a hero too?  How about the Muslim that fragged the command tent just after the start of the war?  They both served too.  Not saying Khan was like them but your definition of hero,  they have to be included because they served too.

While performing a routine vehicle inspection, a taxi with two men drove to the front gate of Khan’s base in a suspicious manner. Khan ordered his soldiers to “hit the dirt” and took about ten steps to the car while motioning for it to stop. That’s when the two men in the taxi detonated their explosives, killing themselves, Khan and two Iraqi soldiers.

None of Khan’s soldiers were killed in the blast. He was awarded the Bronze Star and Purple Heart posthumously.

I read a different account of events.  Which is correct?  I do think know.  I wasn't there.  Neither were you. His death,  like all,  is a tragedy yes. Will you still support his father when his ties to the Muslim brotherhood are exposed?

Very sobering.  Hope it does some good but will not be holding my breath.  I will be pleased if Lifer just keeps quiet for once instead of popping off.

The attack on the embassy had been brewing for days.  Two days before the attacks, the Libyans told the U S officials that they should leave Benghazi as soon as possible (per Washington Post article dated October 22, 2015).

Then came the sympathetic heartfelt response from Hilliary:  She now infamously responded: "Was it because of a protest or was it because of guys out for a walk one night and decided they’d go kill some Americans?" Clinton said. "What difference, at this point, does it make?

Yeah, let's get over the fact that 4 Americans died in something that I knew about and did nothing about. 

To make matters worse, she claims she was aware of the threat on the ground.  So if she was aware that they could be killed, why didn't she do anything?  And why does she look so smug as she testifies before the House Committee; it is because they have inconvenienced her to discuss the lives of 4 Americans that worked for her in the Benghazi embassy.  Don't give me that funding BS because there were military people who wanted to help but were told to stand down. 

If for one second you believe that American lives were lost because of a lack of funding, you really don't understand how our country operates militarily in protecting the people who work in our embassies.

Hahaha.  Harrowing you is my favorite passtime. I love it when you refer to my anger because I am lol all the time.  You should see texts and emails me and a couple of friends send laughing at you. Angry.... Only you are the angry one, like all liberals. Can't win with facts and logic so you always revert to personal attacks and name calling.  Taunting you is easier than shooting game fish I  a barrel.  Oops,  hope I didn't trigger you with the mention of shooting.  Go to your safe space.  It will be OK.  President Trump will be no office soon.

Its so easy it's not even fun  anymore but it has afforded me hours of entertainment the last week or so. You are new so I will restate my affinity for sometimes taking a position I do think even believe in just for the sake of a good discussion,  or in the case of liberals a nice fight. Many times I say to archidiot the things I'd like to say to my liberal sister Hut can't without starting a family fight too so it's not worth it with her.
