| It remains unclear whether President Barack Obama's lies about attacks on U.S. embassies will cost him re-election. One thing is certain, however: whatever ambitions Secretary of State Hillary Clinton once held to run for president in 2016 have been damaged beyond repair. Obama was literally asleep when the proverbial "3 a.m. call" came, but Clinton--who bears responsibility for embassy security--was asleep on the job for weeks. Clinton's response--"How could this happen in a country we helped liberate, in a city we helped save from destruction?--bears the same naïveté for which she once mocked her Democratic rival in

Comments: I don't believe that for a second. Leftists don't care if their leaders are corrupt and incompetent. With them it's a badge of honor. The American people care but not the radical leftists who now own the Democrat party.

She never had a shot at 2016 anyway, nor does it seem she wants it anymore. She has looked washed-up and beaten ever since accepting the job offer from the man she claimed (correctly) was most unqualified to be her boss. She'll end up in some NGO of half-alcoholic, resentful, man-hating "progressive" feminists.

Not. A. Chance.
She looks messy beyond repair and her policies and actions match her look.
She is a harder core Alinskyite than Obit ever dreamed of being, if that is possible.
We can destroy her if she tries this stunt.

She's clearly incompetent. She clearly never had a resume which showed her to be competent, especially not now that she has been given the portfolio and failed.
But, with endless PR of the right kind, the MSM can rehabilitate her.
After all, the MSM just deals with writing things, not with actual human action on the world stage. To them, it's just a story.

Cut her some slack. She's been partying, traveling, eating, photo-oping and drinking on our dime for the past four years. She knows the electorate will have forgotten her debacle as Sec. of State by this time next year. She is stepping down, "going dark" for a few years and will try to get the fire in her belly back for 2016. I don't think she will do it, but this is the plan.

It is not that she was unaware of this possibility, she just didnt care! the left is not naive, they know that their policies are changing America...too many on the right act like the left just does not get it. In reality, we are the ones who do not get it. They are not govnerning like this out of lack of knowledge. If people die, they are just bumps in the road to a more 'tolerant' America. If economy remains bad, just a bump in the road to a more 'fair' America.

Hillary has her cultists in the Democratic Party, just like Obama does. I say she's still at least even money to get the nomination in 2016, regardless of who wins this year. It's obviously a more difficult question as to whether she could win a general election. Too much time between now and then to say for sure.

Hitlery was the ambitious, scheming power behind the throne, who masterminded the silencing of witnesses and Bimbo Eruptions. She should have stayed home and baked cookies.

The PIAPS is not very smart, has a very thin resume, and is becoming downright ugly with her bloated body and face; stringy, dirty hair and unflattering clothes (right up there with the Mooch).

Hillary looks weary and defeated because she is. Life has defeated her - the old dog chasing the cars finally caught one & she's found out that in the end, she doesn't know what to do with it. Her whole life has been one long crusade to show the world what ONE plucky, little woman could do to change it, if given the chance! Well, she's been given the chance - she is SOS of the U.S. & she still can't change the world or even make her own husband respect her. She is tasting the dregs and she sees the very empty bottom of the cup.

People thought that about Bill, too, after he messed around with an intern in the oval office, committed perjury and had his law license suspended. He is now the darling of the left and centrist democrats, who credit him with resurrecting Obama from the dead.
There has not been a peep about Hillary being asleep at the wheel, except in conservative publications. Most of the idiots who listen to and watch the mainstream news still think it's all about the film. Pat 'em on the head and tell them lies, and they'll eat them up. There are more of them than of conservative thinkers, I'm afraid.

Hillary played a major role in the murders of some very good men by failing to assign sufficient security to this very dangerous post. She then happily joined Obama's conspiracy to lie and blame the attack on a film rather than a 9/11 attack by terrorists.

The IRS will shut down entirely for five days this year in order to try to meet its slimmed-down budget under the sequesters, a labor union that represents Treasury Department employees said on Friday. The IRS will close its doors on May 24, June 14, July 5, July 22 and Aug. 30, and employees are being told there could be two other days as well. “On those days all public operations of the IRS will be shut down, leaving taxpayers without access to information and assistance from frontline workers,” the National Treasury Employees Union said.

Transportation Security Administration Administrator John Pistole said at a Christian Science Monitor breakfast in 2010 that his agency’s intrusive pat downs of U.S. air passengers was inspired by two Chechen women who were able to blow up two Russian airliners because "they had explosives in their bras and around their waists." In fact, a November 2005 report by the Office of the Inspector General of the Department of Homeland Security specifically stipulated that TSA’s pat down policy had been initiated in response to the in-air bombing of two Russian airliners by Chechen women who smuggled explosives in their clothing.

“Behind Closed Doors” was a Grammy-winning country hit for Charlie Rich in the 1970s, describing a good time where no one could see, but it’s a terrible way to write laws, particularly laws as complex and controversial as immigration reform.

Blocked by Congress from expanding gun sale background checks, President Obama is turning to actions within his own power to keep people from buying a gun who are prohibited for mental health reasons. Federal law bans certain mentally ill people from purchasing firearms, but not all states are providing data to stop the prohibited sales to the FBI´s background check system. A federal review last year found 17 states contributed fewer than 10 mental health records to the database, meaning many deemed by a judge to be a danger still could have access to guns. The Obama

It would have expanded background checks to people purchasing weapons at gun shows and online sales, enjoyed 90 per cent support among the public and came on the back of the tragedy at Newtown. Yet, despite all that it had going for it, the Toomey-Manchin bill raised just 54 votes--six short of the number necessary for passage. “This is a pretty shameful day for Washington,” said Obama afterwards.

While the media are bearing the brunt of public skepticism over the handling of the Boston bombing, the behavior of government is also eroding public trust. Yesterday´s promised but cancelled news briefing is just one symptom. Andrew McCarthy of PJM notes that "Misinformation rather than enlightenment has been the order of the day in the investigation of Monday´s terrorist bombing of the Boston Marathon," and that part of it is the natural outgrowth of the desire of investigators to keep the details of their investigations secret, so as not to alert suspects.

He was referencing the compromise authored by Sens. Joe Manchin (D-W.Va.) and Pat Toomey (R-Pa.) to expand background checks for gun buyers. It failed to advance in the Senate, with a vote Wednesday afternoon of 54 to 46.

Washington — President Barack Obama says the Senate’s opposition to a bill that would have expanded background checks for gun buyers marks a “shameful day” in Washington. He says a minority of senators decided “it wasn’t worth it” to protect the nation’s children. Obama spoke in the Rose Garden shortly after the Senate vote rejecting a bipartisan effort to expand federal background checks to more firearms buyers. (Snip) The president pinned the blame for the measures failure, though five Democrats also opposed the plan. He also said the gun lobby and its allies “willfully lied” about background check bill.
