Perhaps you have something to say about the father of the Orlando terrorist standing behind Hillary at her Orlando rally . He says he was invited .
What a bizzare world your side resides in .

A federal jury found Pacific Gas and Electric Company guilty on five felony counts of failing to adequately inspect its gas pipelines before the blast that incinerated a neighborhood in San Bruno, Calif., in September 2010. The utility was also found guilty of one count of misleading federal investigators about the standard it used to identify high-risk pipelines.
PG&E was acquitted on six other charges of violating pipeline safety laws.
The blast came without warning in the early evening. It killed eight people, seriously injured 38 others and destroyed 58 homes in the suburb just south of San Francisco.
8 die minding their own business no out cry for those at the top to go to jail
answer from the right we need more deregulation
4 die in Benghazi doing their job 4,948 mi and they want Hillary in Jail
answer from the right should have spent more money
But hea keep the conspiracies going it all the right has

What if both sides are purposefully acting like they are dis functional to polarize us and distract us from the rampant corruption that takes place in government.

Not familiar with the PG&E case, but you said it was found guilty of five felony counts. And another count of misleading federal investigators. Is there some reason that the people at the top should go to jail?
I don't believe that anyone was found to have committed any felonies in the Benghazi case. Are you trying to compare the Benghazi to the PG&E case? If you are implying that there should by a cry for people at the top of PG&E to go to jail, then shouldn't you be crying for Hillary also to go to jail? Or at least for the State Dept. to be "convicted" of causing the death of those at Benghazi as PG&E were convicted for inadequately providing protection for the mission, or for even allowing the mission to be there under the dangerous conditions? And Hillary was more directly and personally responsible for the mission and its protection.
The greatest outcry over Benghazi is not Hillary's committing a crime, but because of her incompetence. There is no jail time for being wrong or incompetent. Those who cry for Hillary to go to jail do so because of the email scandal, not because of Benghazi.

What made you pick a pipeline as an example of deregulation?
The pipe was installed in 1958 before testing methods such as x-ray scanning welds and met the standards at the time. The company was fined 1.6 billion so I don't think they got off scott free.
If regulations were ignored perhaps it was the union employees who ignored regulations. I hear the union ads about how professional and knowledgeable the union employees are, so who failed to do their job correctly?
What regulations were ignored since you brought up the pipeline?

Obama regulations cost over $100 Billion

if the dems would agree to put Hackery in jail where she belongs and the repubs would agree to DumpTrump...we could have the runners' up contend = Bernie vs. Cruz...which would be essentially European Socialism vs. American Constitutionalism.....we could get back to the real fundamental disagreement that we have in this country

He was likely more than 20 feet away, just looks close because of the angle. I'd assume the FBI doesn't consider him a threat so the SS wasn't on the lookout...large public event.
That being said I'm sure neither the SS or Clinton campaign would have wanted him there. He's an odd duck under the best light.

I read that they try to mix up the seats that form a backdrop so it looks diverse, some staffer likely had no idea who he was but he helped to mix things up.
It's hardly even newsworthy.

Exactly. Another amazing coincidence .
Nothing to see here , move on to the next minuscule Trump story that we can blow away out of proportion . Maybe spend a couple nights on how Trumps wife got her green card. What a bunch of A holes

Perhaps , The murder a 27-year-old DNC staffer and the subsequent $20,000 reward posted by wikileaks , because they like to protect thier sources, should make some sort of story in the media ..... Just being an A hole 😊

Both stories are at the same level of pettiness. I thought it was pretty bad before this election.

The worst in people started long before this election....
http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2016...o.html?ref=yfp
So even though the equipment and people using it to tape these events are bought and paid for by the taxpayers it is "just a courtesy" to make them available to the public.

Un F'ing believable
Business as usual
I wonder what will become of this???? since Democrats are involved = nothing
great government we have here

The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.
1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!
It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.

Great, if her staff invited them, it was a stupid move. Where was your outrage over Mark Foley being behind Trump at an event....?

i'm not so sure who Mark Foley is but I'm pretty sure it's not equal to a Taliban supportive father of a murderous terrorist . Is it ?

"Disgraced former U.S. Rep. Mark Foley — accused in 2006 of making sexual advances toward congressional pages"
so Foley would be more like "Disgraced former President Bill Clinton" sitting behind Hillary at an event....that never happens? OUTRAGEOUS!
