Krauthammer: ´Why the Hell´
Would Obama Have Rice Address
Benghazi If She ´Had Nothing
To Do With It?´

NewsBusters, by Noel Sheppard

Original Article

Posted By:KarenJ1, 11/15/2012 8:12:42 AM

President Obama at Wednesday´s press conference defended United Nations Ambassador Susan Rice from criticism concerning the four Americans killed in Libya in September by claiming she "had nothing to do with Benghazi." This led syndicated columnist Charles Krauthammer to ask on Fox News´s Special Report hours later, "Then why the hell are you sending her out" to inform the public about what happened?CHARLES KRAUTHAMMER: Well, you called it his one show of passion. I would say it was his usual show of indignation which is his default response whenever he feels defensive or backed into a corner.

Comments:
That´s a very good question! It´s too bad the idiots in the media didn´t bother to find that out. They were too busy kissing his ring like that idiot woman reporter from the Chicago Tribune.

Dr. K - Your answer is contained within your question.

BECAUSE she had nothing to do with it, she could lie with PLAUSIBLE DENIABALITY. Even SHE didn´t know she was lying. That´s what made her believable.

They knew that - Dr. K, you´re a psychiatrist, YOU know that.

And WE know that.

Barry also said she had the latest intelligence when she went on those shows Sept. 16th and blamed the video. Then, why in debate #2, did Barry & Candy insist he called the attack ´terrorism´ on Sept. 12th? These people, along with their groupie media are extremely dangerous.

If we had a half-way neutral media, Barry would have been a puddle on that press room floor yesterday.

So lets bring this question up also.

Where are the SURVIVORS who were airlifted out of Libya the next morning?

No interviews with anyone who spent the night of the attack???

How can that be? And no relatives of any survivors are seen, either.

Barry Hussain went to the UN two weeks later and said the same thing. Hillary spent $70,000 on a video apologizing for the "video" which "caused" the murders. They are the ones who should be answering questions. These people really believe we trust them. If the MSM had not supported Barry and had actually pushed for answers, Romney would have won.

Thank God he is limited to 2 consecutive terms in office.

This was merely Rice´s audition for a job in the State department. If The One had thought it through he might have realized that it could potentially lead to her disqualification. That is, if the repubs don´t cave.

Let´s hope he thinks he is limited to two terms. We´ve already seen what he thinks of the Constitution - not much or the two branches of government.

Nixon must be rolling over in his grave - no one died in Watergate and just what exactly was the great Constitutional crisis back then?

It´s not about the color of skin why blacks support him. I would bet Condoleeza will never go above 10 percent of the black vote if she becomes the GOP nominee for the 2016 presidential race. Pathetic! Congress should dust off the impeachment manual and starts reviewing them ASAP.

Ineptocracy /noun/

A system of government where the least capable to lead are elected by the least capable of producing, and where the members of society least likely to sustain themselves or succeed, are rewarded with goods and services paid for by the confiscated wealth of a diminishing number

I believe that Obama and his staff were trying to quickly get out the idea of the video as the cause of the attack to give the terrorists a reason for their attack. Only the terrorists didn´t go with the idea, now the problem. It´s like say the video--then it´s ok to kill Americans.

Obama is an update to movie, The Color of Money. The sequel is The Power of Color, with Obama as lead actor. Eric Holder, Susan Rice, Lisa Jackson, Valerie Jarrett and Michelle Obama all in major supporting roles. All six are above criticism, all six are worshipped by the news and entertainment media. As shown at yesterday´s presser, absolutely no one questions The Power of Color even though all of his domestic and international policies have failed to achieve any of the promised results. And, even though Obama used a lie about Benghazi and blackmailed our CIA Director to mouth the same lie. The Power of Color, now playing in a pre-programmed voting machine near you.

Here is the problem. Best friend of fifty plus years, also a retired professor, called yesterday, and is upset about benghazi. And as we discussed Susan Rice´s involvement with the sunday news shows, I asked him if he could remember any UN ambassador appearing on all the news shows, defending something the U.S. had done.
He responded that Colin Powell appeared befor the UN and lied about Iraq´s WMDs.
I tried ot explain the difference, not sure he understood.(Powell was secretary of state, and he believed that Iraq had WMDs, and that Saddam was faking those WMDs, to scare his neighbors.) We have an uneducated population, even when they are professors.

Simple. Arrogance and a flippant attitude about the whole job of President.

He thought, we don´t want to admit we´ve been lying the whole time or we´re dealing guns to our enemies so no big deal, we´ll make up a story about a demonstration that went bad to cover my rear and she is the messenger (I´m too lazy to do it myself.)

The sheer manipulation and incompetence of this man is astounding. Since the MSM won´t question, and in fact let´s him get away with anything is also astounding.

Expect more of the same from the Great Manipulator!

A Michigan high school canceled a speech by former Sen. Rick Santorum after teachers became outraged over his opposition to gay marriage and threatened to stage protests and a possible work stoppage. Santorum had been invited to deliver a upcoming speech on leadership by the Young Americans for Freedom chapter at Gross Pointe South High School. But the speech was canceled on Monday after the school district’s superintendent heard from angry teachers. “It’s a sad day when liberal educators are allowed to influence young minds – extending free speech rights only to those who share their liberal views,” Santorum said

Ferguson said he sent a March 28 letter to owner Barronelle Stutzman asking her to reconsider and supply flowers to customer Robert Ingersoll.

In the message he issued along with his budget proposal on Wednesday morning, President Barack Obama said he wants to see 4-year-old children in the United States enrolled in public schools. Obama said America needs to start enrolling 4-year-olds to make sure the children are “better prepared for the demands of the global economy” and to help parents save on "child-care costs." After saying the United States needs to “equip our citizens with the skills and training” to fill jobs in manufacturing, energy and infrastructure, Obama said, “And that has to start at the earliest possible age.”

President Obama´s push to pass stricter gun control laws will cost Democrats in the 2014 midterm elections, Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) said Wednesday. "I think the president has shown he is willing to demagogue an issue and that it is ultimately going to backfire," Cruz said in an interview on Laura Ingraham´s radio show. Cruz´s comments come as Congress debates passing a set of gun control measures meant to reduce gun violence and prevent shooting massacres similar to the one at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Connecticut.

Lisa Jackson, the former administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency, told an audience at Princeton University politics are to blame for the uproar over her “Richard Windsor” alias email account, but she wishes she had chosen a less-obscure name for the account. Jacob Reces, former head of Princeton’s College Republicans, asked Jackson during a talk on Tuesday if she regretted using the alternate email account, according to the New Jersey Star-Ledger. Using two email accounts for work isn’t a new practice, and was also done under President Bush, Jackson said.

FBI Conducting 32 Gun Purchase
Background Checks Per Minute

During Barack Obama´s presidency there have been 32 background checks for gun purchases every minute. Since February of 2009, the first full month of Obama´s presidency, there have been 70,291,049 background checks for gun purchases, according to data released by the FBI. Using February 1, 2009 as our starting date, and March 31, 2013 as our end date, (the latest data from the FBI) Obama has been president for 1,520 days. That equates to 36,480 hours, or 2,188,800 minutes. Divide the 70,291,049 background checks by 2,188,800 minutes and you get approximately 32 checks for gun purchases every minute!

As he rolls out his fiscal 2014 budget on Wednesday, a new survey finds that Americans haven’t felt this confident about President Obama’s handling of the economy since his first year in office. The Gallup poll, which sampled more than 1,000 Americans, found that 57 percent say they have a “great deal or a fair amount of confidence” in Mr. Obama to do the right thing on the economy. That’s up from just 50 percent last year and hasn’t been this high since it hit 71 percent in 2008. Trust in congressional Republicans, on the other hand, remains low.

All of these are very valid questions, but bring to light another issue: Isn’t there some one else who’s also pregnant right now? Some one who is substantially more important than Kim Kardashian?

Campus Reform broke the story and confirmed that officials at the public, taxpayer-supported school launched an investigation after receiving a student’s official complaint last week. According to the complaint, the professor, Jennifer Yucus, required students to produce posters in opposition to certain gun-friendly legislation currently making its way through the Texas state legislature.

MSNBC host Touré founded a student newspaper dedicated to black liberation theology while he was a college student attending Emory University from 1989 to 1992. Touré’s flagship publication, The Fire This Time, lavished praise on famous anti-Semites, black supremacists, and conspiracy theorists whom Touré helped bring to campus. Before he became an intense-but-sardonic TV personality, Touré also decried “the suffocating white community” and defended a nationally famous fake hate crime. In an interview with The Daily Caller, Touré described the newspaper as “an important black voice on campus” and “a form of community building.”

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.”

Even with the threat of furloughs and government cuts sparked by the sequester, Obama took the time to enjoy a star-studded concert at the White House tonight. The White House celebration of Memphis Soul music in the East Room--which included special guest appearances by Queen Latifah and Justin Timberlake--is likely to rile Obama´s Republican foes.

More than six months since Ambassador Christopher Stevens was assassinated by terrorists in Benghazi, the Obama administration is still trying to keep a lid on information about the attack. Congress and the American people need to know what happened the night of Sept. 11, 2012. Who did the killing and what was their motive? Why wasn´t help sent? And why did the administration lie about who was responsible?

Although the first votes on gun -control legislation have yet to be cast, by some measures the National Rifle Association has already won. Obama’s ambitious plans to ban assault weapons and limit magazine capacities are off the table, while the NRA suggested it could support the most likely outcome -- expanded background checks -- as recently as 1999. The NRA claims that the president’s efforts have triggered a fundraising surge and boosted its membership from 4 million to nearly 5 million.

Margaret Thatcher had more impact on the world than any woman ruler since Catherine the Great of Russia. Not only did she turn around—decisively—the British economy in the 1980s, she also saw her methods copied in more than 50 countries. "Thatcherism" was the most popular and successful way of running a country in the last quarter of the 20th century and into the 21st. Her origins were humble. Born Oct. 13, 1925, she was the daughter of a grocer in the Lincolnshire town of Grantham. Alfred Roberts was no ordinary shopkeeper.

Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary Kathleen Sebelius conceded Monday that implementing the Affordable Care Act has been more complicated and frustrating than the Obama administration expected, largely due to Republicans who have opposed the law´s state-based exchanges and Medicaid expansion. "The politics has been relentless and that continues," Sebelius said.

Myron Ullman, Johnson´s predecessor at JCPenney, takes office as CEO. When Johnson was initially wooed by JCPenney, it was to serve as CEO with Ullman as Chairman. In January 2012, Ullman was unceremoniously removed from the board. Gone with Ullman was any control the Board of Directors had over Ron Johnson and his control of JCPenney resources.
