| Secretary of State Hillary Clinton pushed back Wednesday on the suggestion that Sept. 11 emails implicating an Al Qaeda-tied group in the Libya consulate attack were proof of terrorist involvement, saying their claims of responsibility on Facebook and Twitter were not "evidence." (snip) She suggested those producing the emails were "cherrypicking" documentation, as the White House noted the organization reportedly had denied responsibility in other settings. "I think within a few hours that organization itself claimed that it had not been responsible. Neither should be taken as fact," White House Press Secretary Jay Carney said.

Comments: The Queen of Chutzpah has issued her proclamation on the matter. What baloney ! Going into Libya was her idea in the first place and I'm convinced the video cover-up was a Clinton production as well. 0bama & Co. are just as culpible, but this entire Libyan debacle has Madam's hoove prints all over it.

It's maddening to consider obama may actually benefit from this scandal. Last night Shoen and Caddell expressed belief that obama might carry out October surprise military strike in Libya. Caddell was cynical over the prospect. Shoen not so much. Caddell says GOP better get ready because obama stands to gain from use of military for political purposes.

A poster mentioned a while ago that organizations tell employees to be careful what they write in e-mails, saying "the e stands for evidence."

TPerhaps the best explanation, and Benghazi is the perfect time for it, is that they are all so deep into each other for lies and crimes, that one CANNOT bust the other. Here was an opportunity for the long lying sow to shake up O's White House, her long awaited moment to be able to come out to her whole Hilary loving world and break the truth. But NO, they are all in debt to each other, just like all of lying greedy Congress, and they are estopped (great legal word) from being truthful to the outside world. Not only that, they have the full support of the Diane Sawyers, old rotting decadently wealthy limo TV media, to cover for all of them. There simply is no chance for an embittered Hilary, loser to Obama, to ever speak out with the truth, even if she wanted to do so. It's the Beltway Gsng of Liars and it's all starting to come to a brutally honest Breitbartian ending as news lie after news lie is countered by New Media honesty. First, it was with the pathological liar, Slick Willie Now she's being caught in her very own lies.

YOUR department GOT those emails and the security teams were only 3 hours (3 HOURS!) away...and you were aware of what was going on for 7 hours!
You didn't want to send in support because it would look like you didn't have a handle on things in that country...so you waited hoping the terrorists would back down. Then AFTER you found out what happened, you LIED...to the country and WORSE to the FAMILY members of the dead!

Seeing Hillary lately, with her hair tugged back pulling her fleshy face with it puts me in mind of Charles Laughton playing Captain Bligh. Then when you add to the picture a bulging blue pantsuit as she waddles down a flight of White House steps I can hear Laughton barking, "Mistah Christian, I'll teach these men the meaning of discipline."

Memories, memories, July 1993, this ain't the first time Bilary exerted influence to cover up death. When their closest friend advisor VINCENT FOSTER, was beginning to weaken and was suddenly found "suicided" in a lonely Park, it was herself that midnight raided Foster's office with her staff, before it was security taped. And it was Slick Willie, who immediatley prophesized, "We'll never learn how this happened". And some of you may remember there is a widely distributed list that is lovingly titled "THE FRIENDS OF BILL", that describes well over 100 friends of Bill and Hilary, who suffered sudden, oft times, violent deaths. A figure that would stagger, boggle the mind of, any actuarial.

WASHINGTON — Attorney General Eric Holder, the nation´s chief law enforcement officer, returned to the courthouse where he once served as a judge, this time in the role of prospective juror performing his civic duty. The Justice Department said Holder wasn´t chosen and that he won´t be called back. Had he been selected for the jury Tuesday, the attorney general would have been on a panel hearing an armed robbery case. Holder sat in the last row of Judge Stuart Nash´s courtroom along with other prospective jurors as the judge gave details of the case.

The U.S. has been denied direct access to the only publicly known suspect in custody in connection with the Benghazi terror attack, Fox News has learned, with U.S. interrogators still unable to sit in the same room as the Egypt-held prisoner to ask questions. Abu Ahmed, also known as Mohammed Jamal, is suspected of establishing Islamist training camps in Eastern Libya where militants who took part in the Sept. 11 Benghazi terrorist attack were able to train. Ahmed is not suspected of directly taking part in the attack which left four Americans, including Ambassador Chris Stevens, dead.

For the past five months, the Republican message on foreign policy message has been defined by a single word: Benghazi. Ever since the deadly September 11 attack on the U.S. compound in that Libyan city, Republicans have obsessed over the episode. Mitt Romney made Benghazi a favorite talking point in the 2012 campaign home stretch. More recently, Republicans have invoked Benghazi to shoot down one would-be cabinet nominee, Susan Rice, and delay two others, Chuck Hagel and John Brennan.

The al-Qaida extremists bypassed the brightly-colored, high-end synthetic floor coverings and stopped their pickup truck in front of a man selling more modest mats woven from desert grass, priced at $1.40 apiece. There they bought two bales of 25 mats each, and asked him to bundle them on top of the car, along with a stack of sticks.

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?

No one is more preoccupied these days with Hillary Clinton´s 2016 plans than the Beltway political class—not even the former presidential candidate herself. To hear some tell it, her decision will be dispositive for all other Democrats thinking of entering the race. And pundits and reporters aren´t the only ones positing the "The Hillary Factor": No less than the House Democratic whip, Steny Hoyer, told BuzzFeed, “I don´t know that anybody would run against Hillary…. If she runs, she clears the field.” It´s an understandable conclusion, given Clinton´s stature in the Democratic Party and her 70 percent

In the chilling interview, a distraught Ms. Smith, in tears, pleaded for answers and spoke of the efforts to silence her. Ms. Smith first relayed how her son, prior to the attack, requested additional security in advance and warned the State Department: He did tell them, ahead of time, he typed it into his little typewriter over there,

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.
