| Former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani argued Monday on CNN that President Barack Obama should have known from "common sense" that the U.S. consulate in Libya was at risk prior to last month's deadly attacks in Benghazi. When pressed further on his point, however, Giuliani engaged in a heated exchange with Soledad O'Brien, anchor of CNN's "Starting Point." (Snip) "The president should have known based on common sense that an attack like that, an attack in which you're using rocket propelled hand grenades, in which mortars are used...Now all the sudden you get an attack on September 11 and

Comments: They don't mean Soledad O'Brien, news anchor, because there is no such person. They mean Soledad O'Brien, 0bama campaign worker. She insists she's a journalist. Next she'll make it more unbelievable and tell us she's a smart journalist.

We apparently lots of military resources within three flight hours and this attack went on for six or seven hours? And we did nothing because we were worried about Libyan sovereignty? In a country we supposedly recently liberated? Scotty, beam me up, even if the forces arrived too late to save the Ambassadors life, they still could have wiped out the bad guys.

The only thing fiery about the debate was the rudeness of O'Brien. My, my she is so full of herself and is one obnoxious "journalist"! Rudy was ticked off and you can see he was about to blow his top. She kept interrupting him, because, you see, she knows everything!!! s/o
I haven't watched CNN in years and don't plan to change my plans with someone like her on tv. No wonder people think the media is biased. All she needs is her democrat for Obama button to wear!

It is close to Halloween and Soledad's behavior to Giuliani brings to mind a rhyme on witch. I have not watched her before but she was downright hostile to her 'guest'. I guess Rudi is appearing on her show to perhaps let CNN viewers see how rude is this 'journalist', otherwise Rudi should tell Soledad to get Sandra Fluke herself.

Giuliani is right O'Brien as usual was wrong. There is no correlation between Bush Iraq and Benghazi, it's apples and oranges and even Soledad O'Brien is smart enough to realize it.
1. In a highly dangerous part of the arab world, with the anniversary of 9/11 imminent, and with a history of recent attacks on the consulate the president should have known that more security was required. He and his staff failed to do anything.
2. With the consulate under attack, nothing was done to rescue the U.S. citizens and a personal representitive of the president died horribly along with three other americans.
3. The administration orchestrated a pathetic attempt at a coverup, throwing the intelligence community under the bus.
Absolute total incompetence from the White House to the pinheads at the state dept who let the ambassador go to a place like Benghazi without sufficient security.

She is incredibly childish, with silly girlish faces, and a temper that flares because she cannot talk the other person into her Obama point of view. Just a sad case of a person who thinks she is a journalist. I say she is an Obama stooge who just forgot to stick the O. sticker on her forehead.

O'Brien joins Debbie Wasserman Schultz as yet another Dem talking head that is extremely hard to look at or listen to. Her voice makes nails on a chalkboard sound melodious. Unlike Blitzer and Cooper , SO'B has never had a respectful or apolitical conversation with a Republican. Democrat women are always so unpleasant.

This whole "conversation" between the nasty-brat-ms-o'brien and Rudy Giuliani began because the lower than a snake Matthew Dowd accused President Bush of lying about WMD for FIVE years and obama only waited for TWO WEEKS before admitting it was terrorism in Ben Ghazi! What a crock! I didn't think Rudy handled it very well, especially when he agreed that Dowd had "a point". NO, he didn't! No wonder President Bush had so much grief when he was in office. Surrounded by Dowd, Frum, and at times, even Ari Fleischer.

Make sure to read the copy below the video (& ads). In it O'Brien actually says this to Rudy: "'Every time I ask you a question,' she continued, '[y]ou like to push back as if somehow the question that's being posed to you is unfair. It's not. I'm a journalist. You said some things. I'm trying to get some accurate responses from you. You are welcome to answer. Go ahead.'"
Can O'Brien really be so STUPID? Does she not know that reporters continually ask "unfair questions" (like: "Have you stopped beating your wife?")? Does she not know that smart people can spot an "unfair question" a mile away, and will tell the reporter what they want them to hear instead?
Rudy, I'm sure is 100% smarter than Soledad, and read her like a (I can't think of the right word..., but you know what I mean!)

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. In 2008, Obama won independents in the state by

Mitt Romney and President Obama each racked up early and expected victories Tuesday night in relatively safe territory, while some of the biggest battlegrounds that will decide the election remained too close to call. All the big swing states where polls have closed -- Florida, New Hampshire, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Virginia and North Carolina -- were too close to call, Fox News projects. (Snip) Obama will also win three of Maine's four electoral votes, Fox News projects. It is unclear where the state's fourth electoral vote will fall.

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.

The sequester may have many across the country singing the blues, but for President Obama, it was all about Memphis Soul. Even with the threat of furloughs and government cuts sparked by the sequester, Obama took the time to enjoy a star-studded concert at the White House tonight. The White House celebration of Memphis Soul music in the East Room--which included special guest appearances by Queen Latifah and Justin Timberlake--is likely to rile Obama´s Republican foes. Some conservatives have called on Obama to give up golf, especially since popular public tours of the White House have been canceled because of

In the message he issued along with his budget proposal on Wednesday morning, President Barack Obama said he wants to see 4-year-old children in the United States enrolled in public schools. Obama said America needs to start enrolling 4-year-olds to make sure the children are “better prepared for the demands of the global economy” and to help parents save on "child-care costs." After saying the United States needs to “equip our citizens with the skills and training” to fill jobs in manufacturing, energy and infrastructure, Obama said, “And that has to start at the earliest possible age.”

Although the first votes on gun -control legislation have yet to be cast, by some measures the National Rifle Association has already won. Obama’s ambitious plans to ban assault weapons and limit magazine capacities are off the table, while the NRA suggested it could support the most likely outcome -- expanded background checks -- as recently as 1999. The NRA claims that the president’s efforts have triggered a fundraising surge and boosted its membership from 4 million to nearly 5 million.

Sean Smith was Mrs. Smith’s only child. To listen to her recent radio interview with another Sean… Sean Hannity… is to have the heart break.
