Dem Congressman At Benghazi Hearing: "Death Is A Part Of Life"
2013-05-09
Cummings is Congressman-for-Life (D) representing the Best of Baltimore.
[Real Clear Politics] CUMMINGS: And, as I listen to your testimony I could not help but think of something that I said very recently -- two years ago now -- in a eulogy for a relative. I said that death is a part of life, so often we have to find a way to make life a part of death. And, I guess the reason why I'm saying that, going back to something Mr. Nordstrom said, he wanted, I guess all of you said this, he wanted to make sure we learn from this.

#15  If dath is part of life, would death be part of Obamacare? Sounds like it.

#14  This sounds threatening, Mafia style.

"Nice little life you've got here.
It would be a shame if someone were to add some 'death' to it."

#11  "Death Is A Part Of Life"(c)

the new slogan of Obamacare

It'll rank right behind the other older Socialist slogan of "Arbeit macht frei"

#6  This congressman is a symptom of the slow death of these one-time United States.

#5  Don't ask or expect anyone to save your sorry congressional a$$ if or when the bad guys come for you.
Trust is a two way street. You just knocked yourself out of the loop.

Just a part of life, eh? You know what Steven went through before he was finally killed? Nice little cycle of life, eh?

I want to vomit.

I watched most of the hearing live. First, he speechified and made it about himself. Then this nonsense came out of his mouth. It is to the witness' credit that none interrupted to ask, "excuse me, but WTF does that mean, anyway?"

#2  This is a legit scandal exceeding Watergate is every way.
It shocks me to see the Democrat tools shill for the Obama administration.
Is he untouchable? We'll find out.

#1  Spin, political spin, and more political spin.

Now for the webster definition;

...the end of life; the total and permanent cessation of all the vital functions of an organism.
