Speech Includes Renewed Call to Close Guantánamo

While the Benghazi cover-up remains in the headlines, President Obama will move to shift the focus Thursday in a wide-ranging speech designed to define the administration’s counterterrorism policy.

In the speech scheduled for delivery at the National Defense University in Washington, Obama will once again call for closing the U.S. military prison at Guantánamo Bay, Cuba. In addition, the president will address the controversial use of drones t...

It will be months before the dust settles on the Obama scandals-the Benghazi Cover-up, the IRS suppression of political opposition, the Justice Department snooping on the media, and the shakedown of insurance companies and healthcare providers by Kathleen Sebelius.

It’s a long list. Congressional committees are falling all over each other with hearings and investigations. Meanwhile, the Obama administration struggles with one implausible explanation after another.

Regardless, the real casualty...

Whenever a political scandal comes to light, one of the most common questions is, “How far up does this go?” All too often, layers of insulation protect the highest-ranking officials, and even if they had knowledge or were themselves culpable, they get away without penalty. Lower-ranking officials are sacrificed, scapegoated, or willingly fall on their swords to protect their masters.

Sweeping away all the political talk of impeachment for Obama and derailing the presidential aspirat...

More Questions Than Answers

Surely I can’t be the only person who has a hard time falling asleep at night, thanks to all the unanswered questions floating around in my head.  For instance, after seeing Juan Williams constantly trying to pooh-pooh away questions about the Benghazi cover-up on both Bret Baier’s “Special Report” and O’Reilly’s “The Factor,” I keep wondering if he’s been required to register as a lobbyist for the Obama administration.

For instance, how is it that ...

The House of Representatives’ Oversight Committee hearings about the September 2012 attack on the US consulate in Benghazi, Libya have concluded. Four Americans, including Ambassador Christopher Stevens, were killed in the September 11, 2012 attack.

Supporters of Barack Obama and then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton say that the hearings, led by Republican Rep. Darrell Issa (R-Calif.), were nothing more than a partisan attempt to smear the current president and a likely Democratic cont...

House Speaker Can Start with a Select Committee on Benghazi

It is time for House Speaker John Boehner to step away from the microphone, grab the gavel, and start leading as House Republicans move to investigate the Obama scandals and block the implementation of Obamacare.

The House is now awash in investigations and legislative proposals over the Benghazi and IRS scandals. Boehner needs to take charge.

The Speaker can start by supporting the effort to create a Select Committee to investigate Be...

Speaking truth to power as few others can, Judge Jeanine Pirro devastates Barack Obama for his scandal trifecta of the past week — namely, the Benghazi Betrayal, IRS Harassment, and the AP Phone Records Seizure.

The administration’s strategy through it all continues to be:

1. Shrug, deny, delay, dissemble, obfuscate, rationalize, and blame-shift.
2. Own up to nothing while throwing a few underlings under the bus.
3. Ascribe statist thuggery and gross negligence to lack of funding.

I will frankly admit I find it increasingly difficult to share the same planet as leftists.  That’s because I believe they are all insane.  They say such things as “We all belong to the state” or “It takes a village to raise a child” with a straight face.  One might say that a North Korean belongs to the state, but an American?

To tell the truth, the only way I have found to cope with liberals is by ridiculing them every chance I get.

Does anyone but an idiot believe that folks like...

The Obama White House has released the latest installment of its ongoing and self-congratulatory video series, West Wing Week. But despite touting itself as “your guide to all things 1600 Pennsylvania Ave.,” the new episode seems to be missing some of the key stories that have hit the headlines over the past few days.

There’s no mention, for instance, of Benghazi or the AP phone tapping – and the IRS scandal is barely mentioned in passing.

Perhaps the White House is just...

The Benghazi Four were betrayed. They called for help on September 11 but were left to die instead. Since then, Obama’s craven political appointees have tried to cover their backsides, and his, by lying about the time and resources needed to respond.

In the 3-minute May 11 clip below, former Navy Seal Christopher Mark Heben and Col. David Hunt (Ret.) explain how Alert-30 and Alert-60 forces could have been on-site in Benghazi within about 3 hours. Those forces train for missions like Bengh...

It’s Already Over for the Obama Administration

Second term presidents usually get almost two years to pursue their agendas before the midterm elections and the next presidential election cycle slams the door.

For President Obama, the second term timetable has been cut short. Next week marks only four months since Obama took the oath of office to begin his second term and it is already over. He’s a lame duck walking way before his time.

This is no idle prediction. The administration is mired ...

Woodwards and Bernsteins only go after Republicans; the Democratic Party has no Howard Bakers nor Joe Liebermans profiling courage; and the road to Hell paved by LBJ,  Slick Willie and Barack Obama’s bad intentions would drown even a Watergate.

It wasn’t “just about sex” nor “Nixon’s War”.

In the wake of the documented cover up of Benghazi security lapses and admissions of politically targeted IRS inquiries by the Obama Administration, would it be too ...

David Brooks, the in-house “conservative” at the New York Times, nailed it on a Sunday talk show when he said it’s a hyper political view of everything that’s the real scandal of the Obama administration.

“Second terms are generally hit with scandals,” Brooke said on Meet the Press. “In the Obama administration, you’re not going to have a monetary scandal. These people are not financially corrupt. You’re not going to have a sexual scandal. But they are very politica...

Whistleblower News

The Republicans aren’t going to get to the bottom of Benghazi. They are not asking the right questions and have a restricted purview. What’s needed is a Church-like Committee Hearing that was established after Watergate. We are dealing with a hybrid State/CIA diplomatic-intelligence agency that has no oversight or accountability. Notice how no one has asked what Ambassador Christopher Stevens meeting was about with Turkish Consul General Ali Sait Akin? They are ...

From the Conservative Campaign Committee:

For months the Obama administration, with significant backing from the liberal media, have attempted to hide the truth about what happened.  To cover their failures in combating terrorism, they told lies saying it was not a preplanned terrorist attack, even when they knew that to be an absolute falsehood.

Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton and countless members of the Obama administration have lied, concealed and attempted to cover up not only the truth bu...

Except in wartime, voters usually pay little attention to foreign policy issues at election time. Benghazi may be an exception.

The issues are falling into place for the 2014-midterm elections. The economy and job creation still top the list of major voter concerns, a predictable preference given the still-staggering economy.

Nevertheless, the news is filled with foreign policy events, including the use of chemical weapons in Syria, the Israeli bombing of Damascus, and the question of foreign te...
