In the decades to come, Benghazi will be come a rallying cry for Right Wingers on the evils of Obama. However, when asked where it is on map those same guys won’t know.

Still not clear why RWNJs are so upset over Benghazi, but countless mass shootings at home–along with over a thousand people killed by police in 2015 alone–are no big deal.

@¡Andrew!: Nobody gives a shit about Benghazi, but since they can’t say The President is Near in public, they’ll take what they can get.

Ouch: The movie opens at #4 with only $20 million. Keep your distance from Michael Bay today, since he’ll be blowing up everything in sight.

@nojo:
Bay’s Alderaan.

I hate his movies. I hate his style. I hate his pomposity.

@ManchuCandidate: Someone tweeted “Bayghazi”. I’m in.

Jesus, Joseph, and Mary – the HillBot is such a shitstain.

I vote for O’Malley being the winner of the debate. Because as much as I agreed with cranky Uncle Bernie, Marty is the one who will get suburban moms to vote for him over crazy Rafael “Ted” Cruz

@nojo: If he’d included actual cock shotz instead of the just the surrogate bullet-firing kind, the ammoseckshals would’ve repeat-viewed enough to add a zero to that figure.

@ManchuCandidate: Architectural Digest recently published photos of his new home cocaine palace, and it’s just as garish and nouveau riche-trash as you’d expect. In case you’ve ever wondered what a 15-year old boy with an unlimited budget would build. On a positive note, the construction quality looks superb.

@ManchuCandidate: I fully intend to watch The Rock one of these days (in part to get my guy friends’ not infrequent references to it), but that’s it.

I’d forgotten how great/terrible/great again the video for “The Heat Is On” is.

@mellbell: The Rock? Dammit, the Guy Council never tells me what’s going on.

@mellbell:
I thought “The Rock” was just fucking beyond stupid and I tolerate stupid action movies (see my enjoyment of most James Bond films except Quantum of Shit.)

@mellbell:
Not “You Belong To The City”?

@mellbell: Third one to drop, right? We can take a break now that Bowie, Rickman, and Frey are gone?

@SanFranLefty: Uh, you forgot Lemmy. Lemmy who? Ask Twitter.

@nojo:

The movie is also opening waaay too soon to help out the wingnuts. By November no one will be talking about it. Had it opened in July (and been a blockbuster) it would have had more impact.

I’ll still probably go see it, just because I’m a sucker for adrenaline and testosterone soaked war movies.

@nojo: Lemmy from Motörhead, obvs! (A good friend of mine from middle/high school was slightly infatuated with him.) But he died a couple of weeks prior, which is a bit of a stretch for the rule of three.

OK, this drunken moron wins the booby prize for dumbest dumbass to ever dumbass.

Police: Suspected theater shooter brought gun to movie fearing mass shooting

RENTON, Wash. — A 29-year-old man suspected of shooting a woman inside a Renton theater Thursday night told detectives he brought the gun to the movie fearing a mass shooting.

The incident happened at The Landing in Renton during a showing of the film “13 Hours: The Secret Soldiers of Benghazi.” It is the action-packed movie of the terrorist raid on the U.S. Embassy.

Investigators believe the shooter may have been intoxicated at the time.

“Preliminary accounts indicate that an intoxicated suspect entered one of the theaters and was fumbling with a handgun he had in his possession when it went off, striking another patron seated in front of him,” Renton Police said in a statement.

@¡Andrew!: The only protection against a stupid guy with a gun is a… um… wait, I’ll get back to you.

We’re already off the deep end, so no point in turning back now.

Trump Says He Could Shoot Somebody and Still Maintain Support

Hey, if he shoots Cheney, even I would vote for him. In fact–I DARE HIM TO DO IT.

A Kevin Smith song:

Bruckheimer, Schumacher, Michael Bay!
They make movies that make you say:
Oh my god, that’s bullshit, what the fuck?
They’re movies that will suck!

@¡Andrew!: I think Kickstarter rejected my idea for the commissioning of the S.S. Molly Ivins, that idea we’ve kicked around our group for years.

@rptrcub: Wait until Trump is the nominee and try again.
