| The fatal attack on a U.S. diplomatic compound in Libya last month has become a test of Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton’s leadership and a threat to her much-admired legacy as America’s top diplomat just a few months before she plans to step down. Clinton was among the first Obama administration officials to publicly condemn the attack and mourn the deaths of Ambassador J. Christopher Stevens and three other Americans. But as the State Department has weathered Republican-led criticism that it misread warning signs before the Sept. 11 attack, Clinton has been far less visible.

God forbid this "cloud her legacy". Mind you, four Americans died in Benghazi because their government failed to adequately protect them, but let's focus on PIAPS's legacy. So much for Hillary being the one who could answer that 3am phone call. This administration and their enablers in the mainstream media are shameless - absolutely shameless.

Read the whole thing. Lots of info particularly toward the end.
Of course the Wash Post seems to try to whitewash Shrillary.
As I said on the day after the attack: "Where was Hillary and State when the calls for help started to come in?"
Fighter aircraft launched from Europe or a carrier could have been on station within a reasonable time and gunned down lots of attackers.
Not one word from Obama.

Hillary is a damn, stinking liar. I posted here before, and will again, it was clear she lied in front of the transfer cases containing the bodies of the four murdered Americans when she blamed the video for their deaths. Her demeanor changed from weepy to defiant, and she spent too much time weaving her false narrative. This disgusting hag-woman needs to answer for her lies.

BUT because she is married to the big dog and pres. obama needs him, she's relatively safe (for now). there is absolutely no other reason that she is still in that position.

Why did Obama and Hilary want Amb. Stevens to be tortured and murdered?
what did he know that they wanted him silenced?
This is Hilary's legacy.
She has always been a lying despicable fraud who achieved her position by destroying Her impeached perjurer husband's sexual assault victims.
She flunked the DC Bar and could not get admitted to the D C Bar after her unethical conduct during watergate.
She never should have been a Senator nor SOS.

Asian-American lawmakers and advocates are troubled by changes to family-sponsored visas in the Senate’s immigration bill. The legislation’s new merit-based visa program has not won over critics who are worried that tweaks to the visa petition process could keep immigrant families apart. Rep. Mike Honda (D-Calif.), co-chairman of the Congressional Asian Pacific American Caucus’s (CAPAC) immigration taskforce, is among those concerned about the Senate bill’s treatment of family-sponsored visas. “I support family reunification.

Zubeidat Tsarnaeva was added to the Terrorist Identities Datamart Environment (TIDE) database - a collection of more than half a million names kept by the National Counterterrorism Center, CNN reports.

Russia raised concerns to US authorities about the mother in 2011 - at the same time they asked the US about Tamerlan, several sources told CNN. FBI agents interviewed the mother

President Barack Obama has talked tough in trying to dissuade Syrian President Bashar Assad from using chemical weapons against the rebels in Syria’s civil war, warning it would be a “red line” and a “game changer.” Now, Assad has called his bluff, and Obama wants time and space to decide what comes next. The White House said in a letter to Congress on Thursday that U.S. intelligence officials believe “with varying degrees of confidence” that Assad has used the nerve agent sarin, based on the results of “physiological samples.” But the administration did not place the U.S. on the brink

The first in three exclusive reports alleging that that claim is false aired on tonight’s Special Report.

Over five years after Barack Obama won the Iowa caucuses and demolished the notion that white voters wouldn’t support a black presidential candidate, progress for other African-American politicians remains elusive. Even as the country elected and re-elected Obama, making it seem increasingly unremarkable to have a black family in the White House, African-Americans are scarce and bordering on extinct in the U.S. Senate and governorships. The president is indeed exceptional - but in the wrong sense of the phrase as it applies to other black politicians. Consider what has taken place, or not taken place,

Several House Democrats are calling on Congress to recognize that climate change is hurting women more than men, and could even drive poor women to "transactional sex" for survival. The resolution, from Rep. Barbara Lee (D-Calif.) and a dozen other Democrats, says the results of climate change include drought and reduced agricultural output. It says these changes can be particularly harmful for women. "[F]ood insecure women with limited socioeconomic resources may be vulnerable to situations such as sex work, transactional sex, and early marriage that put them at risk for HIV, STIs, unplanned pregnancy, and poor reproductive health,"

On his radio show today, Beck reflected on time he spent at Auschwitz and how the police going door to door to search for the Boston Marathon bombing suspect reminded him of how the Nazis searched for Jews during the Holocaust.

The American Society of Plastic Surgeons released its latest cosmetic and resconstructive surgery statistics on Monday. Many of the trends were familiar. In all, the group reported, Americans underwent 1.6 million cosmetic surgeries, including face-lifts, liposuction and rhinoplasty; 13 million minimally invasive procedures (think Botox injections) and 5.6 million reconstructive procedures (including tumor removal and scar revision). People in the U.S. spent $11 billion on the cosmetic procedures alone. Once again, for the seventh year in a row, breast augmentation was the most popular form of cosmetic surgery, with 286,000 operations performed.
