| Last night, President Obama defiantly declared that "al Qaeda is on its heels." The president made this claim at a fundraiser at the Bill Graham Civic Auditorium in San Francisco, California. "Now, four years ago, I made a few commitments to you. I told you I’d end the war in Iraq, and I did. I said I’d end the war in Afghanistan, and we are," said Obama. "I said we’d refocus on the people who actually attacked us on 9/11 -- and today, al Qaeda is on its heels and Osama bin Laden is no more." The extraordinary

He is in denial. He doesn't realize that the political winds have shifted as a result of the debate, and that the same old schtick just isn't cutting it. The schtick that used to work, it ain't working no more. In the (approximate) words of Warren Zevon, his schtick's f****d up. But it is all he has to offer. He cannot change. He can only do more of the same thing. If he were a vaudeville act, it would be time for the hook to yank him off the stage. The election is the next best way to rid the nation of this pest.

According to the AP (not exactly an opponent of Obama) via washingtn Examiner, Al Qaeda making a comeback in Iraq. So all the blood and treasure spilt in Iraq is being wasted so Obama could say he got all our troops out... A pro USA government in Iraq would have been a great counterweight to Iran but instead will be a colony of Iran.

Axelrod needs to open up that control panel in Obama's back, turn off the "Loop" switch for the Narrative Track, and insert a new set of recordings. The previous set are no longer applicable and their experimental model of the Obama-THX08 is starting to embarrass them as it winds down.

You have to remember that, when the first presidential debate ended, Obama thought he had won.
After decades of benefiting from affirmative action, Obama no longer lives in the real world.

I think Obama is exactly right. Bush left them on their knees, under Obama they've raised up on two legs and are fighting back. He's an idiot and delusional.
Regarding the briefings, my dream is that Romney brings it up in the debate. But instead of saying you missed XX% of the daily intelligence briefings, he should give a number. You did not attend 186 intelligence briefings last year.

Write off the hard core Leftists and the low information supporters, of course. But it does give one pause the amount of rationalization and denial to be an average Obama supporter these days. And it gets worse by the day.
With actions like shutting down the WH daily briefing, you can see that that Obama and his corrupt, disinforming crew just want to somehow, someway make it to Nov 7 without a complete meltdown. I don't think they can play off BenghaziGate for four weeks. If Romney and the Republicans let them run out the clock this multdimensional Libyan outrage, then they deserve to lose. Not a game changer, Benghazi and should be a game ender for The One.

"They have let it slip by because of politics, and now we´ve taken all the correlation we had and dropped the ball because of risk (aversion) -- and now the security in Libya is more fragile than ever," one U.S. special operator told Fox News.

Rhode Island Democratic Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse has apologized for remarks Monday in which he linked Oklahoma "cyclones" to climate change while berating Republicans for their stance on the issue -- around the time a massive tornado killed dozens in that state. A Whitehouse spokesman said Tuesday the politically charged remarks were pre-written as part of the senator’s weekly Senate floor speech on climate change. “Tragically and unbeknownst to the senator at the time, a series of tornadoes were hitting Oklahoma at the same moment he gave his remarks,” the spokesman said.

White House spokesman Jay Carney today disclosed that Obama’s chief of staff, Dennis McDonough, and other top White House officials had advance warning that the IRS was targeting conservative groups. But he insisted McDonough and the other White House officials purposely kept Obama out of the loop.McDonough “rightly chose not to take action” to inform Obama, Carney told reporters at the daily White House briefing.

The Washington Post on Monday reported that Obama’s Department of Justice was investigating journalists before they started wiretapping the Associated Press – for one, Fox News correspondent James Rosen in 2010. Their headline wasn´t "Obama Team Also Spied on Fox News." Fox wasn´t in the headline, on A-1 or on A-12, where the story continued. Newly obtained court documents “reveal how deeply investigators explored the private communications of a working journalist — and raise the question of how often journalists have been investigated as closely as Rosen was in 2010.” Reporter Ann Marimow began:

Lois Lerner, the head of the exempt organizations division of the IRS, won’t answer questions about what she knew about the improper screening – or why she didn’t reveal it to Congress, according to a letter from her defense lawyer, William W.

The wheels came off the Obama administration yesterday. We learned of a startling assault on freedom of the press by the Department of Justice, following the revelation last week of the unprecedented information-gathering foray by that department against The Associated Press. Then, a few minutes later, the Justice Department’s inspector general released a report declaring that the US attorney in Arizona used the leak of a confidential memo to try to discredit a whistleblower in the notorious “gun-walking” scandal known as Fast and Furious (which got two federal agents killed). The leak was called “egregious.”

A senior adviser to President Obama mounted a combative defense of the administration on Sunday, saying the controversies enveloping the White House were the result of Republican lawmakers’ trying to “drag Washington into a swamp of partisan fishing expeditions, trumped-up hearings and false allegations.”The remarks came from Dan Pfeiffer, a member of the president’s inner circle, as he appeared on all five major Sunday morning talk shows in an effort to move the administration past what commentators have described as a “hell week” of controversy and missteps.

While many Americans were tuned into news coverage of the massive damage from tornadoes ravaging the state of Oklahoma, Rhode Island Democratic Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse took to the Senate floor to rail against his Republican colleagues for denying the theory of anthropogenic global warming. Whitehouse spent 15 minutes chastising GOP senators and justified his remarks by alluding to states that seek federal assistance in the wake of natural disasters. “So, you may have a question for me,” Whitehouse said. “Why do you care?
