Cotton stands tall, takes down Dem hypocrisy
Democrats and their media friends have been hyperventilating over an NRCC fundraising letter that mentioned the Benghazi investigation, calling it "disgusting" and claiming it undermines the legitimacy of the investigation.
In a dynamite speech on the House floor Congressman Tom Cotton takes after the hypocrisy of the Democrats, dropping the boom on them, reminding them of their behavior respecting Iraq. Via the Right Scoop:
When I was leading troops in Iraq in 2006, men and women who were being shot at and blown up by al Qaeda, where was the outrage as they fundraised endlessly off the Iraq war?
Where was the outrage as they viciously attacked our commanders?
Where was the outrage when they said soldiers were war criminals?
Where was the outrage when they said the war was lost?
Where was the outrage when they said only high school dropouts join the Army?
Forgive me if I don’t join my democratic colleagues in their fake outrage. Four Americans lost their lives that night in Benghazi. They deserve justice and the American people deserve the truth.
One other lesson I learned in the Army is that we leave no man behind. And we will not leave these four men behind. [/quote]
