Still we haven’t had a concrete explanation about this incident and new State Department spokesperson Jen Psaki didn’t do anything to alleviate that state of affairs [...]

Slate: Claims of Benghazi Cover Up is ‘Pure Fiction’

As the Benghazi hearings begin anew on Capitol Hill on Wednesday, it is worth remembering that Dave Weigel of Slate.com, the former Journolist member who delights in attempting to debunk conservative narratives, declared in December that Republican suspicions of a Benghazi cover-up by the Obama administration were “pure fiction.” Weigel cited the report on the [...]

Quit Laughing, Hillary Really is Just LIke Margaret Thatcher

With the passing of Margaret Thatcher, one of the greatest, most powerful women in recent political history, the American Old Media establishment is all abuzz about… Hillary Clinton. To their minds, talk of the powerful and brilliant Thatcher naturally brings to mind the wife of one of their favorite presidents and Hillary, as far as [...]

WH Spokesman Carney Slams GOP’s ‘Obsession’ With Anti-Islam Film

In the days following the attacks on our embassy in Benghazi, Libya last year the Obama administration insisted the whole thing was a result of Muslim ire at an anti-Islam film posted to Youtube. Today, after Hillary testified in front of the Senate over her role in the debacle, White House spokesman Jay Carney is [...]

#BENGHAZI: Just Kidding. No Real Resignations.

As I stated last week via the NY Times article, it looked to me like these folks were being paid off by being put on administrative leave. Emphasis added: Oh hey, look…Some resignations! With the Accountability report also came four resignations. Four is a nice round number to take the blame for what was ultimately [...]

Anna Wintour to be a U.S. Ambassador? ‘Ludicrous’!

News broke today that President Obama is considering offering the position of the next U.S. Ambassadorship to Great Britain to Anna Wintour, the editor of fashion magazine Vogue. This caused at least one Brit to call the whole idea “ludicrous.” Indeed, the offer seems incomprehensible. To offer the ambassadorship to one of our most important [...]

Assoc. Press Delegitimizing Israel’s Capital City/BBC Blaming the Victims

-By Warner Todd Huston Once again we see the Old Media using subtle rhetoric in an attempt to undermine the legitimacy of Israel, this time it’s the Associated Press playing the trick.

Clinton Dept. of State Backing the Anti-Semitism Party in Ukraine?

Ahead of this Sunday’s parliamentary election in Ukraine, Hillary Clinton’s U.S. State Department has become more critical of the government’s ruling party, expressing fears that democracy is being ill-served in the former Soviet satellite nation. Unfortunately, by backing a “democratic” coalition and undermining the current government, Clinton is helping to pave the way for a [...]

The Benghazi attack represented A Clear And Present Danger

… to President Obama’s Nobel laureate legacy. Sadly, as I have been watching events and information unfold this week, that is the only conclusion I can draw. How dangerous was it to give a Nobel Peace Prize to a man who had, at the time of acceptance (itself an act of supreme arrogance and hubris) [...]

No ‘Gutsy Call’ For American Lives

We learned yesterday that the calls for back up coming out of Benghazi were repeatedly denied by this administration. Got that? They called for help – multiple times. The fight went on for four hours and this administration refused to make the gutsy call to send help. There were survivors that night. The former Seals [...]

Flashback: Candy Crowley Dismissed Oppression of Women By Taliban

With the focus on the horrible job of “moderating” perpetrated by CNN’s Candy Crowley at the latest 2012 presidential debate, it is instructive to take a look back at some of her past work for CNN.

Obama’s UN Speech: Soft Pedaling America’s Principles

Another UN meeting, another Obama appearance where he bends over backwards for foreign ideals and terror supporters. Once again Obama basically places ideas antithetical to America’s in front of ours as he addresses the world, seeming to apologize for us all over again. For instance, the President began his speech with a eulogy of sorts [...]

As Embassies Burned, Obama More Interested in Interviews and Photo Ops

Even as President Obama’s flacks are telling the media that he is too smart to attend daily intelligence briefings, we are finally finding out what he did on that volatile Friday morning last week when our embassies were burning and 21 countries were erupting in anti-American protests. Instead of worrying about all that, Obama was [...]

Instead of Watching Embassies Burn Obama Watches Football Last Weekend
