IMO we need to start pressuring the MSM to explain to us why

Democrats are held to a different standard than republicans.
Their fucking hair was on fire about Benghazi, but we hear crickets about the cluster Fuck that was Yemen. And to top it off the maggot wasn't even watching and couldn't be bothered to care what was happening.

tea bags don't know what real patriotism is. But they know the word commie and they don't like hearing it for their choice and their support.
