| House Intelligence Committee Chairman Mike Rogers said over the weekend that recent disclosures by intelligence officials that once again revise the narrative on what happened during the deadly attack last month in Libya suggest an “orchestrated defense of the administration.” The Michigan Republican congressman did not specify what disclosures he was talking about, but was likely referring to recent news articles downplaying the role of Al Qaeda in the Sept. 11 strike, as well as comments by intelligence officials claiming once again that protests elsewhere over an anti-Islam film may have played a role in inspiring the attack.

Comments: The latest ''disclosures'' which are entirely contradicted by ALL evidence presented to Congress and records from the Ambassador and his staff are nothing more than loyalists to the 0bama regime working furiously to produce lies to protect him in the upcoming debate. The people who are releasing this lying filth need to lose their jobs.

Thank you to all the Republicans (especially Rep. Rogers) who are talking straight about this disaster. I happened to catch Huckabee tonite and it was so infuriating to hear Perino dance around when asked if the WH and State Dept. INTENTIONALLY misled the American people. Puhleez Dana - stop it!!!! Duh they lied. Everyone has been instructed by Hillary or the WH to lie, twist, cover up at any cost.

In addition to the 5 trillion dollars piled on to our debt, the divided people that America has become, the horrendous nightmare in diminished medical care and increased costs that Obamacare will bring to all of us, the collapse of the fragile peace in the Middle Ease, Iran's buildup of nuclear weapons, North Korea's emboldened nuclear development, the unrest between China and Japan, the resurgence of the Russian military, the giant step backwards for the women who will be forced to accept Sharia all over the Middle East thanks to the vacuum of power that Obama's non-leasdership created, and into which the Muslim Brotherhood rushed, the 18% spike in violent crime in the United States in the past year, the 13 trillion dollar loss to the American real estate market thanks to the mandated bad loans forced on American banks by Obama when he was acting as ACORN's attorney and whose demands Reno/Clinton accepted, we have for the most part, lost any trust that we traditionally have had in our government.
Barack Obama is the worst thing that has ever happened to the United States.

I was wondering what they would do once cornered by irrefutable evidence. Now we know. Why they'll just change the evidence. At the last minute. And they know it will eventually be shown to be false. But they don't care. All they need is plausible cover for one more day. Just enough to muddy the issue and make it sound terribly complex and subject to sooo many different interpretations.
They're diabolical. They're brazen. But this time, it won't work.

Are there no Americans left in the Dim party who love their country more than their party? I have yet to hear one Dim come out and defend America's interests rather than the Dim party's interest. They are allowing the lies this admin is spinning and not one of them is confronting Obama or Clinton. I have not heard one of them come out and call for resignations. .

#4 By real trouble, do you mean actions have consequences?
With the MSM on his side, he has the great possibility of being rewarded re-election. No facts that are damning enough will be drumbeated by the weak and complicit GOP.
He will again feign horror at the suggestion of wrongdoing at tonite's debate, and if he stays awake long enough, he will be declared the winner for all to see and hear from the talking heads.....including our guys. I will throw a brick through my TV if Krauthammer or Hume bloviate on what Romney "needed to do", but didn't "quite exactly" get it done.....I'm fed up with them too. Krauthammer joked the other night, I guess responding to the brilliant Mark Levin, that he "calls them as he sees them." How about participating in saving America this time around fellas instead of your own self serving careers?? Mark Levin can run rings around either Dr. K or Brit with half his brain tied behind his back. If Obama wins re-election, my TV will never again be tuned daily from 8pm to 11pm on FNC.....

'Puppet Eyebrows' Axelrod was on Meet the Press, and Turban Durbin was on Fox. Both were floating the line that all the evidence hasn't been fully analyzed by the FBI yet, so why are republicans (especially Governor Romney) leaping to conclusions about this incident?
Meanwhile, in a startling display of adult thinking and behavior, lib newspapers (AZ Republic and Orlando Sentinel) that were still trashing Romney in last week's opinion columns are now endorsing him to replace Obama.

After reading and listening to all that has been said and done, I've come to the conclusion that Obozo and his higher ups all know almost immediately what was happening in Benghazi. After all, they had the numerous phone calls, cables, and even a drone overhead sending back the entire attack in real time. So, all that has happened since that moment in time is doing, what to them, is the best way to explain this to the American public. And that hasn't worked. Now they're in panic mode and simply throwing BS at the wall to see what will stick.
2 more weeks.

#10, you seem to be right, sad to say. It brings to mind the obnoxious lefty rant, "General BEtrayUS," the full page anti-Petraeus ad in the NYT, Hill-of-Beans' in Senate hearings, to accept the General's testimony, one would have to "suspend disbelief."
A question to pose is, What do the people think happened in Benghazi? (assuming they know what "a" Benghazi is...) And i bet the answer would be, There was this nasty utube video...

The entire fouled up government continues to offend and fool Americans with the 24/7 help of the TV media more than any other. Every citizen needs to consider telling every, any, TV newsperson within their own personal, local or national reach, needs to seriously consider hurling insults at them. Pure and simple. Not just the master spies like Diane Sawyer, Katie Couric, Anderson Cooper, Tom Brokaw, Steve Pelley, David Letterman, but the local multi racial show offs, too, who just sit there every night smiling like everything is okay, silent. They don't run for office, they deflect all the crime in government, they watchdog NOTHING. They are criminals by omission to report. No matter who wins, they will go on ignoring the bankrupting acts of the droids in office. We need to continue to insult, humiliate, scold and annoy these phony well dressed non thinking traitors to the truth.

Yes, #2, why do they keep saying we're being 'misled' instead of lied to? Just say the word - LIE! because that's exactly what it is. Jarrett is somehow behind all this.
And WHY do we have no Republican leadership? Only Chaffetz and Graham and a few others, but no Boehner or McConnell. Why aren't they out talking about all the things that are going on, especially now in the midst of the election?
I just can't believe what this country has come to, it's ridiculous.

We at Townhall have been covering this hotly contested Senate race for months and the results are finally in: With 36 percent of precincts reporting, Elizabeth Warren has been declared the next junior Senator from Massachusetts. Warren has never held public office before and the eye-popping $40 million she raised this election cycle evidently proved more than enough to unseat incumbent Senator Scott Brown. This was the most expensive Senate race of 2012 -- by a long shot.

CNN’s Peter Hamby reported that Mitt Romney‘s internal polling showed President Obama leading in Ohio by five percentage points.Per Hamby’s post: The number represented a sharp final bump for Obama in Ohio, a race that had essentially been a tied race through much of the previous week, according to the campaign’s daily tracking. The polling, which also showed a tight race in Pennsylvania, explains why Romney officials decided to send their candidate on last-minute Election Day visits to Cleveland and Pittsburgh.

The Obama and Romney campaigns may be gearing up for a very late night, with one Obama campaign adviser predicting that in Florida alone, "they'll be counting until 2 a.m." The Obama adviser said signs suggest the race is quite tight, though the campaign claimed to be "holding strong" in key battlegrounds like Ohio, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin. The adviser also said turnout among black voters in Virginia was better than expected, suggesting that could be a problem for Mitt Romney. Republican operatives in Virginia, though, predicted a razor-thin victory for their candidate in the state.

Washington - Early returns on Tuesday in what is anticipated to be a dead even presidential election contained no surprises, as CNN projected President Barack Obama will win his home state of Illinois and eight other races while Republican challenger Mitt Romney will win nine states. All races called so far went as expected after the roller-coaster ride of an election campaign that was buffeted by a superstorm and missteps on both sides. Obama and Romney ran dead even in final polls that hinted at a result rivaling some of the closest presidential elections in history, reflecting the deep political

A week after Hurricane Sandy slammed into the East Coast, a majority of voters said President Barack Obama’s response to the crisis wasn’t a factor in their vote, according to early exit polls. Fifty-five percent of those surveyed, per CBS News’ early exit polling released by radio station WKZO in Kalamazoo, Mich., said Obama’s handling of the storm was a minor factor in their vote or wasn’t a factor at all. Twenty-six percent named Sandy as an “important” factor, and 15 percent said it was the “most important” factor in their decision.

Mitt Romney is leading among independents in both Ohio and Virginia, early exit polls show. In Ohio, the former Massachusetts governor takes 56 percent of self-identified independents, compared with 40 percent for President Barack Obama. That’s a huge decrease for Obama from 2008, when the exit polls found him winning independents in Ohio by 12 points, 52 percent to 44 percent for John McCain. The numbers are similar but slightly tighter in Virginia: Romney takes 53 percent of independents there, according to ABC News exit polls, a 12-point lead over Obama.

As expected, the presidential race is tight in Ohio, where the polls just closed: President Obama is winning women 55 percent to 44 percent in the early CBS News exit poll, while Mitt Romney is leading 52 percent to 46 percent among men. Women made up 51 percent of the electorate, compared to 49 percent among women. Thirty-nine percent of voters so far identified themselves as Democrats, compared to 30 percent calling themselves Republican. Thirty-one percent identified as independent or something else, and Romney has a big edge among this group - 56 percent to 40 percent for Mr. Obama.

As expected, Republican candidate for President, Mitt Romney, won West Virginia’s five electoral votes in Tuesday’s General Election over President Barack Obama. National media outlets called the race in West Virginia shortly after polls closed at 7:30 p.m. President Obama’s fate in West Virginia has never been in question, as he garnered just 60 percent of the democratic vote in the May primary. The other 40 percent of that vote went to Texas federal inmate Keith Judd, who was placed on the ballot in West Virginia. President Obama has been hugely unpopular in the Mountain State since he first ran

Early exit polls show Election Day voters are slightly more Republican than in 2008 and broadly concerned about the state of the U.S. economy. Six in 10 voters said the economy is their top issue according to the poll, which was released by The Associated Press and conducted on behalf of a consortium of media companies. Less than a quarter of voters said their families were better off than four years ago — a point seized on by many Republicans as the results leaked out.

When it first became clear that the CIA’s Benghazi talking points had been altered, many of us viewed the White House as the prime suspect. After all, it served President Obama’s political purposes to claim, at the height of a political campaign in which he was taking credit for the fall of al Qaeda, that the death of a U.S. ambassador was down to spontaneous outrage over a video, rather than pre-planned terrorism. It turns out, however, that the State Department was the prime culprit. It was State that pushed back hard against the original talking points.

Republican lawmakers, who have spent months seeking to tie President Obama to last year’s deadly attack on the U.S. diplomatic mission in Benghazi, are increasingly focusing their probe on a new target: former secretary of state Hillary Rodham Clinton. The GOP-led investigation of the Sept. 11, 2012, assaults that killed U.S. Ambassador J. Christopher Stevens and three others now centers heavily on the State Department and whether officials there deliberately misled the public about the nature of the assault. Three State Department officials are scheduled to testify before a House committee on Wednesday about the Benghazi attack and its aftermath.

Former Gov. Mark Sanford completed the trail to political redemption Tuesday with a win over Democrat Elizabeth Colbert Busch to reclaim his old seat in Congress. Sanford defeated Colbert Busch 54 percent to 45 percent, according to full unofficial results. Turnout was heavier than expected, with about 32 percent of the district’s 455,702 registered voters casting ballots. Sanford, who has never lost an election, returns to the 1st District seat he held for three terms from 1995-2001. It’s a remarkable comeback for a man many pundits had written off after his highly publicized affair with an Argentine

There was tragic incompetence, plainly, in the Obama administration’s handling of the Benghazi attacks, and even possibly some political calculation. It is a record that may well come to haunt Hillary Clinton, the first Secretary of State to lose an ambassador in the field in more than three decades, if she runs for president in 2016. But the obvious Republican effort to turn this inquiry into the Democratic (Obama) version of the Iraq intelligence scandal that has tarred the GOP since the George W.

Mark Sanford has won the South Carolina special election in a competitive race for what in normal circumstances is a safe Republican seat. The former governor beat Democrat Elizabeth Colbert Busch, the sister of comedian Stephen Colbert Busch, for the state’s 1st congressional district. The AP called the race for Sanford early in the evening, with the Republican leading Colbert Busch 54 percent 46 percent.
