| What’s the difference between Watergate and Benghazi? Nobody died at Watergate. Yet on the eve of last night’s third and final presidential debate, the mainstream media were practically unanimous in their verdict on Benghazi. Nothing to see here, folks. Move along. Amazing, these are the same rumpswabs and bumkissers who a few years back were in high dudgeon about Valerie Plame — remember Valerie Plame? She was outed as a CIA agent of sorts (she’d worked in Paris, and her cover was a journalist — sounds real dangerous, doesn’t it?). Oh my God, this was the biggest scandal since ... Watergate.

The complicit press and the Obama President are desperate to whitewash the deadly debacle of Benghazi. However, 5 weeks of Obama lies and spin are out there for all to see.
Obama demands that we believe him even as he contradicts himself. The voters by be beyond that.

They actually are going to get away with this. Negligent homicide was committed for political reasons. Democrats should be ashamed, but they won't. Books will be written and maybe Ben Aflack will even make a movie in a few years.

Zerobama should be tried for treason once he is out of office. I mean, he committed treason, that's a fact. Why not try him for it?

Clearly, the Romney team calculated that he merely needed to not make any glaring mistakes tonight to assure a win on Nov 6. From a pure strategy standpoint, I can't disagree. This was a safe move.
But I have to admit I'm disappointed. It seems to me that something very important needed to be said tonight, and wasn't. And what needed to be said and unequivocally established is that the President of the United States, our Commander in Chief, should never have it granted as acceptable to sit watching one of our consulates under attack for 7 hours, seeing the desperate cables pleading for help from our ambassador, and do nothing.
It doesn't matter if help was too far away. It doesn't matter if it was impossible to save them. What matters is that every American citizen should be able to sleep safely at night knowing with absolute certainty that the President would TRY to save them.
Mr. President, you failed that basic test. THAT needed to be said.

Am I the only one that remembers the big deal made over PHOTOGRAPHS at Abu-Ghraib? Didn't our SecDef Rumsfeld end up resigning over that? I don't recall that anyone DIED in that little incident. Our soldiers WENT TO JAIL for taking pictures! Now we have videographer IN JAIL for making a little movie (has anyone actually seen that?).
A U.S. Ambassador, and 3 other Americans were KILLED, needlessly, during a 7-hour torture-fest by the Libyan orcs, and the U.S. DID NOT ride to the rescue! No..... our highest officials WATCHED IT HAPPEN.
Wow. Sorry for the all-caps ... hard not to scream about this.

This morning I heard that Biden stated what the White House said about the Benghazi Terrorist attack were, and I quote, "talking points", from the daily briefing. From this I take it that the daily briefing is used to get talking points to make them look good, not to get intel to protect our nation. This administration has to go.

Sorry, it does not matter if the information that Ms. Rice relied upon was outdated because: 1) The message was approved by her superiors - time to walk back the cat. 2) Giving Ms. Rice the benefit of the doubt, she had to know that the information was out dated.
I don't think this story will go away if BHO loses. If he wins, it won't matter.

Apparently, Mitt's team had decided to not allow the Benghazi debacle to surface. I'm sure that obama's team had spent hours upon hours prepping obama's replies to Benghazi. I think Mitt took the wind out of obama's sail, and by staying out of a verbal brawl he was able to look presidential. Obama looked and acted like a community organizer.

Romney would not have cornered Obama on this issue. Obama would not have looked dumbstruck and confessed to malfeasance. Better to let others do it. He used his time to show knowledge of world events and an alpha male's determination to protect the people. More patina for him, more erosion for Obama.

Any credibility Susan Rice may have had is now destroyed. She should never be able to get another job in the field of foreign affairs.
Same applies to Hillary -- who never should have been nominated for SOS in the first place, given her outrageous lies about having to dodge "sniper fire" in Bosnia.
But post-Obama, both of these hacks will not only be rewarded with high-paying jobs, they will receive huge sums for making speeches and books ... full of lies.

In Re: 15, because, like it or not, the Military is subordinate to the civilian administration. The party that should raise these issues is the opposition along with an independent press. Unfortunately, the congressional Republican Leadership is an Ox rather than a Bull, while the press is committed to pulling 18 inches of vaccum through an onion bag when it comes to the current administration.

I also know when our Forefathers were gaining this nation for at literal risk of their lives, Sacred Honor was a thing to die for, not to be sullied and a thing no man trifled with.
I see so little of it today between Military Chaplains for Witches, gay military marriages being forced and no on with salad on their shoulders telling Obama to go suck wind.

Lets hear (under oath) from Clapper and Petraeus where the video intel come from and was it the most current for the two week period. Then why they did not keep the WH appraised of any changes.
Either the intel community or the State Dept is lying. Lets get it on the table right now.

Secretary of State John Kerry is worth some $200 million, give or take a yacht. So his decision to slap a 5% pay cut on himself in solidarity with government employees squeezed by sequestration won’t likely hurt him much. But he’s saving taxpayers another way, too — if unintentionally. And it’s downright troubling. How else is Kerry saving money? He’s failing to hire folks to fill key spots at his agency. Terrific. Think about it: With the North Koreans threatening nuclear strikes against America — and Kerry himself preparing to visit South Korea this week — wouldn’t it be a tad helpful

In March, the number of Americans who dropped out of the labor force increased by 663,000 which adds up to a record 90 million Americans who are no longer looking for employment. Zero Hedge reported: This was the biggest monthly increase in people dropping out of the labor force since January 2012, when the BLS did its census recast of the labor numbers. And even worse, the labor force participation rate plunged from an already abysmal 63.5% to 63.3% - the lowest since 1979!But at least it helped with the now painfully grotesque propaganda

Gonzaga administrators notified the students who had sought the school’s official seal of approval last month, reports The Cardinal Newman Society’s Catholic Education Daily. “The Knights of Columbus, by their very nature, is a men’s organization in which only Catholics may participate via membership,” reads a letter written by Sue Weitz, vice president for student life. “These criteria are inconsistent with the policy

After 69 years, Newt Gingrich is wealthy, a celebrity, and the owner of a tony home in Northern Virginia. His place in the history books, as the leader of the Republican revolution, has long been established. But the former House speaker isn’t ready to fade away. “I don’t rule it out,” he said on Thursday over breakfast, when asked about a future presidential run. He spoke excitedly about his company, Gingrich Productions, and his upcoming trip to South Carolina, where he won the Republican primary last year. Gingrich’s unflagging energy isn’t surprising.

Going with his parental gut, President Obama applauded in 2011 when Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius barred girls under 17 from obtaining the morning-after pill without a prescription. He pictured 10- and 11-year-olds buying pregnancy prevention medicine as easily as bubble gum and drew a line. “As the father of two daughters, it makes sense to apply some common sense,” the President said. Now, a Brooklyn federal judge has ruled that moms and dads — including the ones in the White House — are owed no legal say over whether very young daughters can pop a hormonal contraceptive

Smith Commons, located in the H Street corridor of Washington, D.C. is a popular dining destination in Washington. According to WUSA9, Smith Commons was cited for “operating without hot water and without a staff member certified in managing food safety.” When WUSA9 asked whether the problems had been remedied, the establishment declined to answer.

It would take superspin powers to portray the March jobs report as anything other than a huge step in the wrong direction. The US economy added just 88,000 jobs last month, 95,000 in the private sector as public payrolls fell by 7,000. The official unemployment rate ticked down a tenth of a point to 7.6%. 1. That is a paltry number of jobs, more or less matching assumed labor force growth per month. So the economy must add at least that many jobs just to keep the labor market at current depressed levels.

Senator Marco Rubio is the man of the hour. He has deftly positioned himself as the indispensable figure in this year’s immigration debate. His participation has given the Gang of Eight approach to amnesty some insulation from grassroots conservative criticism, at least for a time. Liberals in Congress understand that his imprimatur is essential to get Republican votes for the amnesty. But Rubio’s position as a bridge between the parties on immigration means he faces conflicting demands. He wants to ride success on immigration to the 2016 presidential nomination but has also made hard commitments to conservatives

Last week, the Society of Actuaries warned about sticker shock ahead for individuals and families buying health insurance. How did the White House respond? In its usual Orwellian fashion, saying “healthcare costs are falling thanks to the reform law.” Falling is correct only if you’re standing on your head. President Obama repeatedly promised that insurance exchanges will save families up to $2,300 a year. He couldn’t possibly have believed it. From day one, it was obvious the law would push up premiums. That’s because it requires insurers to cover services

The rites of spring are: daylight savings time... cherry blossoms and daffodils… and another North Korean military crisis. Every year, come spring, the North Korean people run low on their stocks of food, fuel and fear. Their leaders manage the situation by manufacturing a crisis. They threaten war, their people forget about hardships to rally round the flag, and the world trembles. Everyone agrees to consultations, the North Koreans get assistance, and the crisis is averted….until the same time next year. The annual North Korean display of braggadocio and brinksmanship is so predictable you can practically set your iCalendar to auto-renew.

The president´s trek to Denver on Wednesday was his latest attempt to regain momentum on the issue of gun violence, on which Obama has so far failed to close a deal despite a substantial investment of political capital. "There doesn´t have to be a conflict between protecting our citizens and protecting our Second Amendment rights," Obama said,

President Obama´s biggest gaffe yesterday when speaking of California Attorney General Kamala Harris was not in flirtatiously complimenting her as "the best-looking attorney general," but in introducing an observation from the system of beauty into a forum that was about the system of power.What´s that, you say?

Put out an all-points bulletin: Millions of Americans have gone missing from the workforce. Every month that those would-be workers are gone raises the odds that they might never come back, dimming the prospects for future economic growth. The vanishing trend is more than a decade old, but it accelerated during the Great Recession. Throughout 2012, economists held out hope that it had stopped. But then came Friday’s jobs report, and hopes were dashed. The Labor Department reported that the U.S. labor force — everyone who has a job or is looking for one — shrank

After the Labor Department announced that a mass exodus of 663,000 workers left the U.S. workforce last month and that job creation fell 112,000 jobs short of projections, Obama’s top economic adviser Alan B.

The budget President Barack Obama will submit on April 10 will contain a proposal that would prohibit individuals from accumulating more than $3 million in Individual Retirement Accounts (IRAs) and tax-preferred retirement accounts. According to a White House statement, the Obama administration believes the current rules allow some wealthy individuals "to accumulate many millions of dollars in these accounts, substantially more than is needed to fund reasonable levels of retirement saving." "The budget would limit an individual’s total balance across tax-preferred accounts to an amount sufficient to finance an annuity of not more than $205,000 per
