| Secretary of State Hillary Clinton will not be able to testify next week before House and Senate panels on the Benghazi issue because she sustained a concussion, a top State Department official said Saturday. Clinton was a scheduled to testify Thursday on the Sept. 11 attack on the U.S. Consulate in Benghazi, Libya, in which U.S. Ambassador Christopher Stephens and three other Americans were killed. Deputy Assistant Secretary of State Philippe Reines said Saturday that Clinton is suffering from a stomach virus, fainted and hit her head, which caused the concussion. However, he did not say when

They´re saying the concussion happened earlier last week when she was recovering from the stomach virus but we´re just now hearing about the concussion. She fainted due to dehydration from the virus. It all adds up now. She´s working from home. Working on what getting more arms to rebels?

The State Department [which is PIAPS], refers to this injury as an "incident."
What would the murder of Ambassador Stevens and the three men in Benghazi be classified as in government-speak? Probably wouldn´t look good on Herself´s resume and run in 2016. Best stay home and bake cookies.

the "concussion" provides her with an out for not testifying now, and later when she lies and gets caught, she can avoid a perjury or contempt charge by claiming amnesia or altered recollections due to traumatic brain injury...heck before this is all over, I suspect we (taxpayers) will be paying her disability payments in perpetuity for her "concussion".

Hillary´s concussion is just as real as the so-called movie causing the terror in Libya.
The Clintons are not known for telling the truth, even under oath!
The whole Obama administration is corrupt! They don´t pay taxes unless forced to.
Obama and the Mrs. are enjoying their joyride in the White House and only amuse themselves and their buddies, at our expense.
Obama has caused more chaos in America than any other president and has cost US more than all together from the very beginning and he has only started - what will it be like in another 4 years?
Hillary has used Bill to get her where she is today! I wonder how important that will be on Judgment Day when she stands alone and must give an account of her life! God knows her heart. She can´t lie to Him and get away with it.

She must testify. We can wait. We will wait. In fact, the more bizarre, goofy, stupid her and, AND, the regime´s excuses or rationalizations are, the more important it is to get the testimony on record.

Even NFL players are getting sympathy over concussions.

Unless Mrs. Clinton fell from a great height, that is more than just ´high heels,´ a true concussion is practically impossible -- unless her skull bone is very abnormally thin. And then it would only be even plausible, if she was falling/diving from great height and fell directly on her head, and then necessarily spent time in a hospital. As a number have already said, this sounds about as implausible as blaming that ´Mohammad film clip´ for the Benghazi event. Lying is no way to run the American Republic!

Anyone here surprised? No.
If she testifies and tells the truth, all hopes of ever running for President will be gone. PIAPS needs any excuse to keep from walking into that room.
I agree with other comments. The committee should tell Hillary they will wait until she can appear.

They want to run things their way until they screw up & then they want a convenient excuse - usually "delicate health, female trouble" or whatever. It is all designed so that if criticized, they can say, "Look at the meeeaan Republicans, picking on a poor, sick woman!" She ought to stand up & take her medicine just like the "man" she thinks she is.

Since a concussion is a potentially life-threatening injury Congress has made an immediate appointment with her with doctor on call for Congress. His suggestion is that she immediately turn over all duties to her deputy. When the doctor finds that it is safe to resume her duties, she can start by giving her sworn testimony to Congress and then resume her Secretary of State role.

This is contempt for Congress and the citizens who have a right to call government officials to account for their actions. The Republicans in Congress need to do everything in their power to make sure that she does not get away with this, even if it means shutting down the government. There is a fundamental principle at stake.

Anyone who hits their head and has a concussion ...MUST have a CatScan within two days....as Liam Neasom can attest to...
Hillary is lying...and it is an obvious blatant lie...the press is complicit her constant arrogant lies...and in refusing to answer for those murdered and tortured in Benghazi...but seeing that they hate the Millitary that makes it okay, by them...Imagine if this were the Bush Administration...imagine the full symphony af shrieking ...
As to Obama´s fake tears #12...and they were fake indeed...
Tears come from the inner eye.from .the tear ducts...
Obama wiped first the one outer eye...and then it began tearing...then a minute or two later... he wiped the other outer eye where again there was no tear...that is, until he put something in his eye...
One does not cry from only one eye and then minutes later the other begins watering....and one.never tears from the outer eye as the tear ducts are in the inner corners only...
With Obama and his constant fraud we are forced to prove him a constant prevaricator...

She´s got the world´s best health care--patch her up and get her sorry patootie up to congress where she can be recorded lying to Congress. Preview: "I don´t recall." "I don´t remember." "There´s no evidence of that." What a joke--a walking, talking Lady Macbeth.

Speaking of Vince Foster -Tell us the last words of such events-- you know the second half of what goes around. Aww Hillary what a devastating time for your turn to happen--Just when you were set to bravely march into the House and tell all the truth in nothing but mode.Well life even constricted can be endured in quiet while confined forever in home. Here is hoping we don´t have to wait 20 years for Obe´s turn .

Something you won´t hear this week:
Hillary: "Okay, okay, I lied. I was walking down the aisle of my plane with a drink in both hands and we hit a little turbulence. It could happen to anybody. About that Libya thing, I take full responsiblity for the murders of innocent people and I resign because I am so ashamed of myself. I´m sorry I did such a lousy job as SecState but what do you expect from an impeached president´s wife?"

If she cant testify due to medical issues then she cant and shouldn´t act in the capacity of secretary of state.
Unless and until she puts her second in command in charge, until she recovers, this is all a bunch of crap

A convenient concussion. Not buyin´ it. Her version of the dog ate my testimony.
Obama and his entire crew, including Hillary, are the biggest bunch of stonewallers to ever occupy our government. And key to their stonewalling success is the corrupt, defunct non-Fox news media... All in all, the American version of the Kremline and Pravda. An outrage to a country increasingly too clueless to be outraged.

So...let´s think about this. She will do anything to avoid testifying. Why is that? Why not lie, and obfuscate, and stonewall as usual? Is it because she knows that the answers are already there, and provable? And if she doesn´t testify, AKA lie, then they can´t accuse her of lying...and she can´t tell the truth, because, well, because it´s too awful and she will lose all hope of running in 2016. So Humpty Dumpty has a great fall. She´s walking on eggshells and she knows it.

And do they think we´re all clinging to our guns and religion so hard that we´ll be fooled and believe their lies? Yes! A pox on academia, the media, and all liberal lefties! I have it as a close call who is the bigger liar, Obama or the Clintons..it´s very close. Damn them all!

Around the same time the nation was transfixed on the hunt for the Boston Marathon bombers last month, thieves on the other side of the country pulled off a little-noticed heist -- swiping 559 pounds of explosives from a federal storage facility in Montana. As of Friday, not one ounce of it has been found. The incident, federal officials believe, was not terrorism-related. But it´s the latest to raise security concerns in an age when authorities are warning about the desire of violence-bent terrorists to inflict mass casualties with bombs.

President Obama found himself weathering bipartisan broadsides Wednesday as he sent Congress his 2014 budget proposal, which in its effort to please both sides of the aisle has ended up angering both. The budget arrived on Capitol Hill Wednesday morning, delivered 65 days after the legal deadline. The $3.77 trillion spending plan, which is over 2,000 pages, tries to curb deficits by further raising taxes on top earners and reining in the growth of Social Security.

Former Detroit Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick, once seen as a rising star in Democratic Party politics, was convicted on Monday on two dozen federal charges of corruption and bribery while in office. U.S. prosecutors accused Kilpatrick, 42, his father and a city contractor of widespread corruption, extorting bribes from contractors who wanted to be awarded or keep city contracts, turning the mayor´s office into "Kilpatrick Incorporated" during his seven year tenure.

The Internal Revenue Service on Friday unveiled its proposal to raise tens of billions of dollars through annual fees on health insurers, prompting fierce criticism from industry groups who warn the costs will be passed along to consumers. The proposed rule from President Obama´s healthcare law will be published for public consideration in Monday’s Federal Register. The rule would assess annual fees on most insurers that would total $8 billion next year and rise thereafter, eclipsing $14 billion in 2018, according to the IRS.

Another member of the Washington political media stepped forward Thursday to claim he was threatened by the Obama White House, shortly after the White House denied reports that an adviser threatened famed Watergate journalist Bob Woodward. The latest claim comes from Lanny Davis, who served as counsel to former President Bill Clinton and later went on to write a column for The Washington Times.

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:

WASHINGTON – A top IRS official in the division that reviews nonprofit groups will invoke the Fifth Amendment and refuse to answer questions before a House committee investigating the agency’s improper screening of conservative nonprofit groups. 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. Taylor 3rd. Lerner was scheduled to appear before the House Oversight committee Wednesday.

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.

Stuart Varney said this morning on "Varney & Co." that one of his producers was given a questionnaire with some surprisingly intrusive questions on it when he switched doctors. One of the questions was whether he/she was concerned about unsecured weapons in the home. Another asked whether he/she was "in a relationship in which you have been physically hurt or are you afraid of your partner?" Judge Andrew Napolitano explained that the question about guns comes out of a post-Sandy Hook executive order by President Obama, but it will be required under Obamacare. Varney expressed amazement

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? Why do you, Sheldon Whitehouse, Democrat of Rhode Island, care
