| Sarah Palin has weighed in on the September 11 Benghazi attack through Facebook, an online venue where both former half-term governors and everyone else can air their opinions: …Why the dissembling about the cause of the murder of our ambassador on the anniversary of the worst terrorist attacks on American soil? We deserve answers to this. President Obama’s shuck and jive shtick with these Benghazi lies must end. Now the investigation can proceed. Or maybe we can spend a day talking about her. The Romney campaign must be thrilled.

Comments:
Sarah is not afraid to call a spade a spade, but one of the -ahem- "gentlemen" over in the Salon has his panties in a knot and is having a PC meltdown over Sarah's straight talk. Sarah has more testosterone in her little pinky that dear Alex has in his entire body.

"Shuck and Jive": To "shuck and jive” originally referred to the intentionally misleading words and actions that African-Americans would employ in order to deceive racist Euro-Americans in power, both during the period of slavery and afterwards.

Thanks, Alex, ol’ buddy ol’ pal for your most enlightening tutorial on ethnic jargon and patois. Unfortunately, you’re several generations too late. Shuckin’ and jivin’ referred to as “shuckin’ and jivin’” isn’t (or ain’t) restricted to use by a particular group. If you’re unaware of that, you just haven’t been paying attention. The phrase is everywhere; in pop culture as well as just about everywhere else. Alex, you’ve gotta get out more.

Sarah is on target! Obama copied Morgan Freman's role playing a cool calm collected president during a crisis in a Spielburg produced movie during his 2008 run and it appealed to a lot of White voters...it strikes me listening to his recent riff on "Romensia" as he is bouncing around trying to make jokes that he is trying to mimic Chris Rock, who also played a comedic president...this undignified approach won't work in 2012...

These fools, including the PDSers here, don't understand that she "sets em up and they fall for it" every time. This morning, Carney used the same term- http://www.realclearpolitics.c... …
They got upset the first time she used "all wee wee'd up" forgetting that Obama had used that term first.
They got upset with her when she talked about Obama's "big stick", forgetting that Biden told a crowd that "Obama's got a big stick".
She knows how easy it is to make fools out of her detractors. She plays them for the fools she knows they are. They never learn.

In her remarkable life, Margaret Thatcher achieved what Hillary Rodham Clinton still wants (or at least what the pundits say she wants): She became the first female leader of her country, and she did it in such a determined way that her sex was almost an afterthought. In many respects, the two women are profoundly different. Thatcher, who died Monday at 87, was a self-described "conviction politician" and arch-conservative who channeled Milton Friedman and bonded fiercely with "Ronnie" Reagan, her great pal and partner on the world stage as the Cold War came to an end.

DETROIT -- A Detroit professor and legal adviser to the Vatican says Catholics who promote gay marriage should not try to receive holy Communion, a key part of Catholic identity. And the archbishop of Detroit, Allen Vigneron, said Sunday that Catholics who receive Communion while advocating gay marriage would "logically bring shame for a double-dealing that is not unlike perjury." The comments of Vigneron and Edward Peters, who teaches Catholic canon law at Sacred Heart Major Seminary in Detroit, are part of a polarizing discussion about gay marriage

The Justice Department said Holder wasn´t chosen and that he won´t be called back.

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.

TIMBUKTU, Mali - One of the last things the bearded fighters did before leaving this city was to drive to the market where traders lay their carpets out in the sand. 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.

Recent research indicates that the number of people who do not consider themselves a part of an organized religion is steadily on the rise. Interestingly enough, though the number of those religiously unaffiliated is increasing, there is little to no trend in the number of those who express atheist or agnostic beliefs. People aren’t saying they don’t believe in God. They’re saying they don’t believe in religion. They are not rejecting Christ. They are rejecting the church. This begs the question, “Why are we losing our religion?”

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,

But really she’s something much more interesting: a traitor to her class. Her betrayal consists of being gauche enough to acknowledge publicly a truth that everyone who’s come up through Ivy League culture knows intuitively —
