| Here's one thing we can be sure of about the Benghazi affair: almost everything we've been told since by the mainstream media is a lie, invariably one designed to shore up the creaky and desperate Obama administration. Consider how quickly the story was spun by Obama's amen corner in the liberal MSM. It should, according to any objective news sense, have been a shocking tale of how a woefully unprotected ambassador was murdered in cold blood by Al Qaeda affiliates. Instead, it almost immediately became--of all things--an excuse to demonstrate why Mitt Romney was unfit to be president. Here, for

Obama has been lying about Benghazi in one form or another for 5 weeks. The truth follows more slowly and it is ugly.

Those 4 murdered citizens in Benghazi were simply left to die by Barry & his cohorts. Campaigning took precedence.

IMO, Gloria Allred's role in the Obama campaign is to run interference by using the Obama campaign's tried-and-true method of unsealing sealed court documents to distract America from Fast&Furious, which was overshadowed by Benghazi, which the media refuses to talk about...in a week, both stories could very well be off the table.

This administration, the MSM, in fact, everyone on the left is just so incompetent, so twisted and just plain heartless.
Looking at the photo of Chris Anderson is really heartbreaking. They call themselves "progressives." Can someone explain that exactly? There must be another meaning of the word I don't know -nothing, nothing could possibly expain this.

I've learned that a Democrat President (starting with Bill Clinton) can violate any law, commit treason, trash the Constitution and know that the Democrats in Congress and the msm will always support them. Unlike what happened to Richard Nixon. The current occupant in our White House is more sinister, cold, thuggish, pro Islam and anti American than I ever thought until now. God help us if he gets reelected.

After this election let's put all our TV's in our closets and get all our news and entertainment from our computers.
The MSM must suffer for their lies, half truths and out and out censorship. Let's drive TV viewership down to almost nothing, and stop TV sales.
I think the days of multi-million dollar earning news readers has past, and should end sooner rather than later.

No longer mentioned in any of the reporting is that the 'video' lie chanted endlessly by zippy, shrillary and their lap dogs caused riots all over the middle and far east and in Europe ( even on the tiny island of Mauritius in the middle of the Indian Ocean ). Those riots endangered many more Americans and destroyed several of our embassies and consulates. Just think of all the classified information left for the rioters in those buildings. National security issue? You bet, and maybe that was part of the plan. Lets not forget to hold zippy and shrillary accountable for that as well.

Why didn't the Nobama administration order a rescue? Answer is that it would appear to be imperialistic and Nobama is fully against this. Another question is why did we even have an embassy there when it was known that the Libyans could not defend our embassy's presence. Brits knew this, they pulled out.

They watched this live feed . The 2 security men were not killed until 7 hours into the attack. Nothing was done. They allowed them to die while sending in no help. Then they blamed a film while obama hopped on a plane to Vegas and sent the un ambassador out to lie for them. After all of this it's not a story for (and please don't call them mainstream) any of the obama team media channels. These 'news' channels and personnel (I refuse to name them journalists) have destroyed any credibility they may have had. Anyone who is not a complete left wing ideologue no longer watches them. Just look at the viewership numbers for Fox.

The Socialist Party candidate for President of the US, Norman Thomas, said this in a 1944 speech:
The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism. But, under the name of "liberalism, they will adopt every fragment of of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened." He went on to say "I no longer need to run as a Presidential Candidate for the Socialist Party. The Democrat Part has adopted our platform."
This is as true today as it was in 1944. And this is what scares me to no end. Just how many sheeple out there will be on of those who will never realize that we are slowly but surely sliding into socialism. It's time for us, the informed, to get the word out and start changing that which is happening. Lets start by doing all we can to elect Romney and get Obozo out of our government. For the rest of HIS life.

I am sorry if you got tired of my rants about necessity of conservative mainstream media, but I know what I am talking about. Propaganda is not just a word, it is almost the most powerful tool in fascist/commies toolbox! And it has to be countered with conservative truthaganda and information. I am convinced that obozo and other commies wouldn't stand a chance even in 2008 if we, conservatives, had: 1. Conservative media 2. Conservative, commonsensical candidate. Which would've happened if we had conservative media!

Dear MSM: Why can an amateur be blamed for making a video inflaming Islam to murder, but a Hollywood production bragging about the president of the US killing one of their heroes is no problem?
My guess: it has nothing to do with Islam, or risk to American, whether civilians or those serving their country. It is dependent one factor alone: if it helps Obama it is okay, but if it hurts him it is not.

Questions without answers. What exactly was our Ambassador doing in Benghazi? Who was he meeting with, and for what purpose? What is the significance of the CIA hideout just blocks away? What was the CIA doing in Benghazi?
Suggested answers. Fast & Furious, Libya. Enemies of the US. More 0 & Co. gun running. Not intelligence work, of they would have seen the attack coming.

Hundreds took to the streets as macabre ‘Thatcher death parties’ were held late into the night across the country, organised by critics of the ´Iron Lady.´ Smashed shop windows, paint bombs and police being attacked were all consequences of the Left´s sick ´celebration´ of Baroness Thatcher´s death. In Brixton, south London, riot police were deployed as the crowds, which had been drinking since 5pm, started to become more aggressive smashing shop fronts and throwing paint bomb. In Liverpool, flares and fireworks were set off outside Lime Street Station by revellers, while in Bristol, seven police officers were injured--one seriously--as violence

Cometh the hour cometh the man. (Or woman). Except it´s not always true, is it? In 1940 we had Winston Churchill. In 1979 we had Margaret Thatcher. But I´m not sure even the most generous apologists for our current Prime Minister would bracket David Cameron in quite the same category.

By Sanford’s math and reading of Obama administration stimulus allocation figures, the Wind Turbine Drivetrain Testing Facility received $43 million and “created or saved” an estimated 134 jobs. When divided, the numbers calculate to more than $320,000 per job, Sanford said. Sanford’s comments came during a visit to a Mount Pleasant branch of Lyerly’s Cleaners, where he carried in a load

The team found that being left alone to breed on its own was key. The discovery raises hope that other damaged reefs could ´regenerate´. The new research shows that an isolated reef off the northwest coast of Australia that was severely damaged by a period of warming in 1998. It was hit by coral bleaching, caused by higher water temperatures that break down the coral´s symbiotic relationship with algae that provide food for coral growth.

Obama´s gun control proposals have run into resistance on Capitol Hill, leaving their fate in doubt.

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?”

Beginning a week of high pressure on gun control, the White House on Monday accused some Republican senators of cowardice for planning to filibuster gun legislation without allowing the full Senate to vote on President Obama’s initiatives. “If they oppose this legislation, have the courage to say so on the floor and vote no,” said White House press secretary Jay Carney. “Don’t block it. Don’t hide behind a procedural action to prevent a vote. That’s the wrong thing to do, and that’s how the president clearly feels.”
