| United Nations Ambassador Susan Rice, on Capitol Hill this week answering questions about her role after the U.S. consulate attack in Benghazi, has become yet another player in the divide between the left and right, with her possible nomination as the next Secretary of State hanging in the balance.(Snip)Unlike many in government, Rice holds a rare claim to Washington, D.C.: she´s a local. She hails from a prominent family with deep ties to the Democratic Party. She was born Nov. 17, 1964 to Emmett Rice, a deputy director at the Treasury Department

If she is so smart she must have known the truth about Bengazi. If she knew the truth then she lied to the people of the United States when she appeared on five different television shows. That is unacceptable. If she did not know the ruth or did not try to find out the truth, then she isn´t that smart. Also unacceptable. She loses either way.

Some of the most book-smart people I know are the dumbest out there in the real world.
No one who is so smart would just read off talking points without question. A diplomat would have urged other contributors to policy to simply say they needed more time to investigate the matter and a report would be forthcoming.
No one seems to be asking why Hillary Clinton, as well as Obama himself, went around talking about the video for another couple of weeks; Obama to the United Nations. That is the real scandal. I don´t care about this Rice woman.
Speaking of women named Rice, why did the previous Secretary of State, Dr. Condi, never get the democrats on her side? Could it be that they were a bunch of woman-hating racists?
Our voters are so ignorant that they probably don´t even remember back that far.

It was easier in the old days when people like this were called countesses and princesses and it was obvious why they got their jobs.
The article fails to mention that she is married to a Canadian media producer who works for ABC.

Susan Rice is anathema to what DC needs; she is an educated idiot, with " a head full of learned lumber.", a political animal through and through, who will, an recently on TV, has, put political posturing before truthfulness and public interest.

Who was UN Ambassador Susan Rice before Benghazi? Why, she was the bimbo who went to lunch with Hillary Clinton when Benjamin Netanyahu gave his address to the UN.
She was also the anti-Israel clown who didn´t direct her staff to boycott Ahmadinejad´s speeches.
In both of these cases, as with Benghazi, she was just following orders.
She is a good soldier.
She will be our next Secretary of State.
Elections have consequences.

Rice tried her hand in the private sector, where she went on to work as a management consultant with McKinsey and Company.
There is nothing about her success or failure in the private sector. The fact that she didn´t last long is probably significant. This is my speculation.

If there is anything that we need in a Sec´y of State it is not a person who presents no opposition or disputes with Obama´s dreadful decisions. She is a puppet and probably provides no discussions of value. Her record at the UN is abyssmal (sp?). I´ll bet that Clinton provided more input than Rice ever would. She is another under-qualified Obama tool.

Rather than Secretary of State, Susan should be offered the position of Ambassador to Libya. And, I´m not being sarcastic.

She is the pathetic fool who openly admired a Chinese or Cuban Communist, if I remember correctly. Not that something like that matters to anyone in the media these days.

0bama has been billed as smart, maybe the smartest man ever, yet we have never seen his college transcripts. If Rice is so smart, I want to see her college transcripts. Was Rice admitted to Stanford on affirmative action? Was her work there graded on affirmative action? Was her degree granted on affirmative action? Is her progression through the State Department based on affirmative action? We will never know the answers to these questions. She´s black, and we´re not allowed to ask such questions.

Los Angeles County coroner´s officials said Wednesday the body recovered from a fiery, single-car crash in Hollywood that apparently killed journalist Michael Hastings will likely undergo an autopsy Thursday. But an official cause of death and closure of the case is not likely for four to six weeks or perhaps longer, they said. Coroner´s officials are hoping the results will answer why the accident happened. Officials were attempting to match dental records to help make a positive identification. The death of the 33-year-old Hastings was announced Tuesday by his employer, BuzzFeed,

Meet the Women for Weiner. The former congressman, who apologized for the lewd picture scandal that ended his House career before launching a bid last month for New York City mayor, is holding a fundraiser hosted by “Women for Anthony” next week at the Manhattan home of an education activist and philanthropist. The host committee is led by his wife, Huma Abedin, and includes her sister, Heba; Rory Tahari, wife of designer Elie Tahari; and Cheryl Saban, the wife of California-based mega-donor Haim Saban, who funded a short film lauding Hillary Clinton’s tenure at the State Department

Likening religious schools to segregation--a racist system that forced blacks to attend different schools and use different facilities than whites in the American South--President Barack Obama told a town hall meeting for youth in Belfast, Northern Ireland on Monday that there should not be Catholic and Protestant schools because such schools cause division. "Because issues like segregated schools and housing, lack of jobs and opportunity--symbols of history that are a source of pride for some and pain for others--these are not tangential to peace; they’re essential to it,"

Guillory talks about how the welfare state is only a mechanism for politicians to control the black community. Video here. Transcript below. Perfect. “Hello, my name is Elbert Lee Guillory, and I’m the senator for the twenty-fourth district right here in beautiful Louisiana. Recently I made what many are referring to as a ‘bold decision’ to switch my party affiliation

News reports from the final debate between Democrat Ed Markey and Republican Gabriel Gomez conclude that Gomez, a first-time candidate and self-styled "new kind of Republican," delivered a strong performance. With just days left in the campaign before the June 25 special election for Senate, Gomez has trailed Markey, a 37-year veteran of the House, in every single poll. Markey currently leads by average of more than 9 points. But in the debate Tuesday night, Gomez hit Markey hard on the Democrat´s long Washington tenure, a running theme in the Republican´s campaign.

The Obama administration has reportedly tried to enlist the NBA in helping it sell Obamacare to the American people. It’s unclear whether a potential marketing partnership would put big-name players at the center of ad campaigns or if it would be as simple as putting the NBA trademark on marketing materials, Politico first reported today. People can begin signing up for Obamacare in October, with the new insurance coverage kicking in next year. Many have speculated that the enrollment campaigns would benefit from a celebrity endorsement or partnership with a major sports league.

A group of whistleblowers, including a number of aviation experts, have come forward in a new documentary to claim that the official explanation for the crash of TWA Flight 800 was wrong and a gas tank explosion did not bring down the flight off the coast of Long Island 17 years ago. However, the six whistleblowers, all part of the original investigation team, stopped short of saying the plane was shot down. Flight 800, a Boeing 747, had just taken off from JFK airport with 230 people aboard on July 17, 1996 enroute to Paris when it exploded

An attorney whose firm represents two Benghazi whistleblowers said Gen. Martin Dempsey, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, lied to the Senate when he said there was never a “stand down” order during the Benghazi attack on Sept. 11, 2012. “What was fascinating is that he explained his lie to them,” Joe DiGenova, an attorney representing one of the whistleblowers, told CNSNews.com. “He actually said they were sent to Tripoli. They were needed in Benghazi,” said DiGenova, a former U.S. attorney, now with the Washington firm of DiGenova & Toensing.

Amid a steady rise of backlash, Edward Snowden, the 29-year-old former National Security Agency contractor who was the source of a spring of leaks about the agency´s surveillance methods, conducted a live chat on The Guardian´s website Monday morning. Judging from some of the pointed questions he´s been asked and the reaction to newly leaked revelations over the past few days, it´s clear that much of the sympathy and support Snowden had built up for his early exposures is eroding. Many Americans supported his decision to leak information about a pair of National Security Agency surveillance programs, which, he detailed, gathered information

Listening to Barack Obama give his speech in Belfast on Monday, it was hard not to stifle a yawn. I kept waiting for the part when he would say something interesting, but, about three quarters of the way through, realised it wasn’t going to come. Judging from television pictures some of his young audience felt the same, after the initial rush of euphoria of receiving the rock star president in their midst had passed. This is not surprising, for we had already heard this number about the inspirational role of the Northern Ireland peace process and the Emerald Isle’s

Charlie Rose last night asked President Obama his new Syria policy. The president first objected to it being called a new policy. "I´m not sure you can characterize this as a new policy. This is consistent with the policy that I´ve had throughout," he said. Obama then explained the goal is regional stability, and especially in Syria. "Really, what we´re trying to do is take sides against extremists of all sorts and in favor of people who are in favor of moderation, tolerance, representative government, and over the long-term, stability and prosperity for the people of Syria," said Obama.

Marco Rubio. Paul Ryan. The IRS. Illegal immigration. And fraud to the tune of billions.. Now there’s a combustible mix. Let’s start with the IRS, illegal immigration and fraud. We’ll come back in a minute to Senator Rubio and Congressman Ryan. For those who came in late, a year before the IRS scandals burst onto the scene in early May of 2013, an alert investigative reporter for WTHR-Indianapolis (Channel 13), Bob Segall by name, produced a stunning piece of journalism. Segall’s video report is found here and we will quote from his story for the basics.
