| You know the scandal is tightening when everyone enters denial mode. The CIA spokesman has said, ”No one at any level in the CIA told anybody not to help those in need; claims to the contrary are simply inaccurate. ” The White House is denying that Obama had anything to do with denying any requests for aid. “Neither the president nor anyone in the White House denied any requests for assistance in Benghazi,” National Security Council spokesman Tommy Vietor told Yahoo News by email.

This excellent article includes a compilation of statements from those who know that the path of denial of aid has to lead back to Obama. Recommended reading.

Where are the calls from Congress and all the other Shmuks for Criminal investigations? Where are the Media cry's for Barry's resignation? If this were a George Bush scandal they would have demanded his arrest. I can barely wait for November 6 to get here. Lets get this thing over and if necessary get this Civil War started. I'm tired of all the lies from both sides. Perhaps it is time we used the Declaration of Independence to put t stop to this mess.

We are seeing a mainstream media blackout on this. What is allowed through is purposely confused. Our media has become a propaganda tool, nothing more.
The simple truth is our soldiers fought heroically and were denied support that might have saved their lives.
As it is, these heroes disobeyed orders and evacuated dozens from the consulate.
Obama's response has been 6 weeks of lies, CYA and spin.
These heroes deserve the truth.

John Bolton had an excellent point on Fox this morning. There might not have been a "don't do it" type of instruction but Zippy might have said something like "Use your judgement but don't make it any worse". That gives technical deniability like "it depends on what is is". The whole thing stinks to high heaven.

FTA: "One of the former SEALs was actively painting the target. That means that Specter WAS ON STATION! Probably an AC130U. A ground laser designator is not a briefing pointer laser. You do not “paint” a target until the weapons system/designator is synched; which means that the AC130 was on station."
There it is. The smoking laser.

#7 - "They made a decision to make NO DECISION"
According to most reports, Obama knew and actually made a conscience decision not to support our people. In doing so he aided an enemy in carrying out an organized attack on the United States on the anniversary of 9/11 and them made yet another conscience decision to cover it up with the smoke screen of so-called muslim outrage caused by, guess who? - Us! Then he made another conscience decision to lie about that too. A lot of conscience decisions going on here yet the MSM just sweeps it under the rug!
As far as Front Page Magazine is concerned, are they not able to muster up any more creativeness than what's in somebody's little toe nail? Stop comparing everything to a 40 year old, third-rate burglary that nobody died in. This is a hellova lot worse!

Right on #12. That's the key point: You only "paint" when ordinance is ready to be delivered. FTA: "Obama wanted the locals to deal with it. Anything else would ruin the image of the Arab Spring and our Islamist allies." That's the other key point. "I will stand with the Muslims." It explains everything - from failure to support the Iranian students, who really do (did) want secular democracy, to support of the Islamist Spring. Obama needs to be hammered with this. Islamization of the West generally, and America in partcular, is the gravest threat his re-election poses.

When the career of golf´s top player and biggest star was in free fall in 2010, the brain trust of professional golf in the U.S. gathered in their Florida headquarters to contemplate life after Tiger Woods. Huddling with consultants from their Austin, Texas, advertising firm, senior executives at the PGA Tour tried to figure out how to persuade fans, sponsors and television networks to stay invested in a sport whose biggest draw had been disgraced.(Snip)Defying predictions, the post-Tiger collapse never happened, thanks to the rise of a flashy new crop of players.

Offered admission into several top colleges, she accepted a scholarship to UC San Diego, leaving behind the often rough, inner-city world of South Los Angeles. But on Thursday, Dashiell´s talent and promise were a distant, squandered memory as the 24-year-old sat handcuffed in a downtown Los Angeles courtroom. After years of lying, she fully confessed to her role in a 2007 murder and, in a deal with prosecutors, pleaded guilty to second-degree murder and attempted robbery.(Snip)Judge Michael Pastor sentenced

These are trying times. Never in the history of this country have we been so weakened and polarized by what many view as deliberate government policy. Now anti-gunners in the U.S. Congress, the Obama administration, and legislatures across the country are seeking to exploit the Newtown tragedy to promote their “gun control” agenda that envisions federal, universal background checks on gun purchases, and that could lead to gun registration and confiscation. At the same time, the increasing militarization of law enforcement, most visibly demonstrated by the growing use of massive, SWAT-type raids on businesses and individuals, sometimes with federal

It is reported to be the first court summons for a direct descendant of the Spanish king. She is King Juan Carlos´s youngest daughter. Her husband, Inaki Urdangarin, denies wrongdoing and has not been charged. He is suspected of having massively overcharged local authorities for organising sporting events.

“Do you have a solve for this problem?” “Let’s all focus on the build.” “That’s the take-away from today’s seminar.” Or, to quote a song that was recently a No. 1 hit in Britain, “Would you let me see beneath your beautiful?” If you find these sentences annoying, you are not alone. Each contains an example of nominalization: a word we are used to encountering as a verb or adjective that has been transmuted into a noun. (Snip) Writing packed with nominalizations is commonly regarded as slovenly, obfuscatory, pretentious or merely ugly.

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?”

There was growing buzz over the weekend that a bipartisan agreement on gun control — a deal that would expand background checks — could hit the floor as early as this week. However, any deal could be derailed by the looming threat of a Republican filibuster involving Texas Sen. Ted Cruz. With Cruz standing proudly in the way of any gun legislation, Democrats are trying to make him pay a political price — and even a couple of high-profile Republicans are questioning his tactics.
