| That’s the Politico headline about today’s presidential news conference. (Snip) When the press conference is over, we still won’t know why additional security wasn’t provided to the consulate in Benghazi despite multiple requests, why Ty Woods was told to stand down, who gave the order to stand down, why multiple appeals for support went unanswered, where the president was on the evening of September 11, why the president stuck to the video-as-cause falsehood for several weeks, who told Susan Rice to perpetuate that falsehood, what Secretary of State Clinton was doing before, during, and

Is it just me or does anyone else feel like they are living in an alternate universe since the election. It´s like the twilight zone except a lot worse.

I am a big fan of the Twilight Zone. The Zone is a work of fiction. This idiot of a president is sending America down a rat hole to hell and these fools are just singing and skipping down the yellow brick road. This is our reality. How do we deal with this?

How do we stop it? Reverse the infiltration. We infiltrate their ranks: public schools, universities, government jobs, union jobs, churches, etc. Talk to young people. Convince them without preaching. Tell them the truth and then when they persist in their ignorance, just shrug and remind them they are entitled to their opinions, not their own facts. Then walk away and pray. Don´t be afraid to be the minority voice, the Commies were once the minority voice in our country too.

The Media has managed to destroy themselves without knowing it. The reason they cannot vet the President or anything else is that they have lost the ability. They are utterly worthless. Four more years of this kind of behavior and we won´t have to worry about the media. They are unable to see news when it is in front of them. Only their choir and idiots will pay any attention to them.

I get ALL my news from the internet and random Fox Cable News ( more random by the day as I refuse to watch Mr Beckel and Mr Williams and all the other fair and balanced folks they have brought on board ). Fox can be fair and balanced without bringing unbalanced. There are normal humans available who do not have an agenda. Are there any fair, independent reporters/journalists still in existence in the USA, outside of the internet. The Foreign sites, such as Canada and the Uk, have far better articles than most US sites.

The MSM gets away with it because they know whatever they do, however much they slander, libel, lie, and cover-up, no matter how brazenly corrupt their "reporting" becomes, no one will have the guts to sue them for malpractice. The GOP has given them a Free Pass, and they know it. They snicker with smug arrogance at all our complaining about "bias", knowing they will never actually be called to account for any degree of lawbreaking (partaking in cover-ups, for example) in a court of law. Thus, they can advertise that they "report the news" while manifestly doing the opposite, with intent to harm. Free Pass!

Check out Obama´s words at the UN? He also supported the film being the problem. He and Hillary are in this deception very deep!
To blame Rice is stupid. She only spouted off what she heard from the top man, Mr. President. This has gone far beyond Watergate and the Dems sought to destroy the Republicans.
Obama will bring down the Dems further and they will not be able to hold their heads up high ever again.
Obama has no conscience and he can lie without even blinking an eyes. It comes natural to him - maybe it was the water in Chicago that set him to be who he is today.
Historians will not be kind to Obama. I pray for his girls, that they do not suffer too much for all that he has done to destroy US!
There are still some good men/women in the Democratic party, but they better stand up or forever be forgotten!
Question and answer time has finally come. Too bad we can´t force Obama to take a lie detecter. Maybe he could outsmart that too. How about the teleprompter inputer. When will we find out who writes his speeches and how much he/she will be held accountable in the years to come.
They are a bunch of Chicago thugs in the White House.
God help those who voted for Obama, not only once, but now twice, knowing exactly who he is and what he has done and will continue to do to US!
Questions need to be answered. Who will come forward for love of America! We are all waiting to see him/her.
Obama just disregarded any questions he didn´t want to answer - nothing new!

Probably the worst part about a liberal (and it´s hard to choose from) is their false pretense that they care about humanity and the human condition.New York is probably the world´s most known city and it´s literally rotting with Obama and Bloomberg living large while these people suffer.
Then you have the 4 dead Americans case and the person who knows more than anybody,Hillary is off jet setting with an entourage of a 100 people for wine tasting.

Does anyone else find The Won´s practice of calling on reporters from a list, not even knowing where they are in the room (but no doubt knowing the question they will ask), antithetical to the purpose of a news conference?

The second suspect in the Boston Marathon bombings was taken into custody Friday night, bringing to an end a massive manhunt in the tense Massachusetts capital worried by warnings the man was possibly armed with explosives. After announcing the arrest on Twitter, Boston police tweeted: “Captured!!! The hunt is over. The search is done. The terror is over. And justice has won. Suspect in custody.” (Snip) Police were alerted to his whereabouts by a man who went outside after authorities lifted an order for residents to stay inside during the manhunt.

There were few complaints at the Woodruff polls as South Carolina´s new voter photo ID requirement was enforced for the first time in Spartanburg County. The re-do election for mayor in Woodruff is the first Spartanburg County election since the photo ID requirement went into effect Jan. 1. The law requires voters to show a S.C. driver´s license, Department of Motor Vehicles ID card, voter registration card with photo, federal military ID or a United States passport to cast a ballot. (Snip) The law was passed in 2012 as a measure to combat voter fraud, according to proponents.

To the world beyond the Beltway, it might not mean much that Bob Woodward of the famed Watergate duo went public with his recent White House run-in. This would be an oversight. (Snip) Distrust of media, encouraged by alternative media seeking to enhance their own standing, has become a tool useful to the very powers the Fourth Estate was constitutionally endowed to monitor. When the president can bypass reporters to reach the public, it is not far-fetched to imagine a time — perhaps now? — when the state controls the message.

There are two stories circulating around Bob Woodward this morning. (Snip) But the White House also wanted the issue to disappear until after the election, so in conjunction with Congress it proposed (and the President specifically endorsed) an enforcement mechanism called sequestration. In exchange for agreeing to a package of $1.2T in cuts with no revenues as a failsafe, Republicans agreed to raise the debt limit high enough that it would not be reached until after the election. The significant point is that the trigger for sequestration was not the same date as the implementation date.

This just in from our Republican Insider, who has been very busy of late regarding the impending sequestration conflict that is being played out 24/7 by the Mainstream Media and the Obama White House. (Snip) Word of that compromise got out and reached the White House. I am guessing it was someone working for Reid who relayed that information. Regardless, it was the very next day that a staffer for one of the Senators working the compromise deal received word from Legislative Affairs to not under any circumstances continue to produce a compromise, or publicize any such deal.

In a very oddly worded public response to a question posed to him during an online interview, Barack Obama dances around the topic of using military drones to kill Americans inside of the United States. (Snip) First he begins his answer by stating, “There has never been a drone used on an American citizen on American soil.” Barack Obama doesn’t say there never will be – or that he never intends to do so…he instead chooses – deliberatly, to say that such a thing has not happened…YET.. The president then gets into the meat of his prepared statement

WASHINGTON – The Internal Revenue Serviced scandal today spread further within the White House and closer to President Obama. White House spokesman Jay Carney today disclosed that Obama’s chief of staff, Dennis McDonough, and other top White House officials had advance warning that the IRS was targeting conservative groups. But he insisted McDonough and the other White House officials purposely kept Obama out of the loop.McDonough “rightly chose not to take action” to inform Obama, Carney told reporters at the daily White House briefing.

The Washington Post on Monday reported that Obama’s Department of Justice was investigating journalists before they started wiretapping the Associated Press – for one, Fox News correspondent James Rosen in 2010. Their headline wasn´t "Obama Team Also Spied on Fox News." Fox wasn´t in the headline, on A-1 or on A-12, where the story continued. Newly obtained court documents “reveal how deeply investigators explored the private communications of a working journalist — and raise the question of how often journalists have been investigated as closely as Rosen was in 2010.” Reporter Ann Marimow began:

The wheels came off the Obama administration yesterday. We learned of a startling assault on freedom of the press by the Department of Justice, following the revelation last week of the unprecedented information-gathering foray by that department against The Associated Press. Then, a few minutes later, the Justice Department’s inspector general released a report declaring that the US attorney in Arizona used the leak of a confidential memo to try to discredit a whistleblower in the notorious “gun-walking” scandal known as Fast and Furious (which got two federal agents killed). The leak was called “egregious.”

WASHINGTON – A top IRS official in the division that reviews nonprofit groups will invoke the Fifth Amendment and refuse to answer questions before a House committee investigating the agency’s improper screening of conservative nonprofit groups. Lois Lerner, the head of the exempt organizations division of the IRS, won’t answer questions about what she knew about the improper screening – or why she didn’t reveal it to Congress, according to a letter from her defense lawyer, William W. Taylor 3rd. Lerner was scheduled to appear before the House Oversight committee Wednesday.

A senior adviser to President Obama mounted a combative defense of the administration on Sunday, saying the controversies enveloping the White House were the result of Republican lawmakers’ trying to “drag Washington into a swamp of partisan fishing expeditions, trumped-up hearings and false allegations.”The remarks came from Dan Pfeiffer, a member of the president’s inner circle, as he appeared on all five major Sunday morning talk shows in an effort to move the administration past what commentators have described as a “hell week” of controversy and missteps.

Stuart Varney said this morning on "Varney & Co." that one of his producers was given a questionnaire with some surprisingly intrusive questions on it when he switched doctors. One of the questions was whether he/she was concerned about unsecured weapons in the home. Another asked whether he/she was "in a relationship in which you have been physically hurt or are you afraid of your partner?" Judge Andrew Napolitano explained that the question about guns comes out of a post-Sandy Hook executive order by President Obama, but it will be required under Obamacare. Varney expressed amazement

While many Americans were tuned into news coverage of the massive damage from tornadoes ravaging the state of Oklahoma, Rhode Island Democratic Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse took to the Senate floor to rail against his Republican colleagues for denying the theory of anthropogenic global warming. Whitehouse spent 15 minutes chastising GOP senators and justified his remarks by alluding to states that seek federal assistance in the wake of natural disasters. “So, you may have a question for me,” Whitehouse said. “Why do you care? Why do you, Sheldon Whitehouse, Democrat of Rhode Island, care
