The Benghazi Conspiracy? (cont.)

John McCain and Lindsey Graham - opposed to Susan Rice -
Went before the media to offer their advice.
Said they'd block Obama if he chooses her for State...
Personnel advice from Sarah Palin's running mate?

Both men say that, after our Ambassador was slain,
Susan Rice was wrong and thus, according to McCain,
There is a conspiracy that rivals Watergate.
They want Rice investigated... Not the head at State.

I was once a fan of John McCain's.  Not anymore.
Chose him in 2000; would have in 2004.
Not the man he was back then; now all he does is grouse.
Maybe he'd like Rice if she saw Russia from her house.

Across the Pond - U.S. Embassies Attacked in Cairo and Benghazi

Yesterday our Embassies were subjects of attack;
Stormed the walls and tore Old Glory down - hung flags of black.
Cairo and Benghazi...  Our Ambassador is dead.
Libyans blew up his car as he and others fled.

What would be the cause for these two "allies" fighting us?
What's behind the outrage?  What's the reason for the fuss?
Seems that there's some movie that nobody's even seen,
And Muhammad comes off looking bad from what I glean.

Guy who made the movie is American and so
That appeared to be enough for angry mobs to grow.
I would say that's quite enough of this and screw them all.
Leave us out of it and kill each other.  Have a ball.

Islam needs a Reformation and it needs it bad -
Speaking from experience about the one we had.
But, until they drag themselves from ignorance and fear,
I think the United States had better just steer clear.
