| Ever since an armed mob torched a U.S. diplomatic mission in Benghazi, Libya, on the 11th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks, President Obama has vowed to bring the killers of Ambassador Chris Stevens and three other Americans to justice. Yet four months after the assault, U.S. counterterrorism and intelligence officials tell The Daily Beast that the hunt for those responsible remains stymied by poor cooperation by North African governments.On Tuesday, the Tunisian government released Ali Ani al-Harzi,

The murder of an ambassador of any country used to be a serious matter. Not so much anymore obviously. Or is it just Obama sweeping another scandal under the rug with the help of the MSM?

The Republicans are so inept. They simply do not know how to do congressional investigations. They´re leisurely, gentlemanly, accommodating. And in the end, complete failures.

Let´s face it, the killers are incredibly popular in the Islamic world. Why would a weak government turn them over to the infidel Americans?

until the general public sees these questions in the msm, they will not be taken seriously. the republican leadership should be shouting from the rooftops, buying t.v. time and telling the people about this inept, corrupt administration. when these articles appear only in the conservative press, they are not only (usually) not read by anyone other than conservatives, the information is dismissed as conspiratorial, false or worse. here in ma. it is just about a lost cause, but in other states, you can have some influence on your elected republicans to speak out - have press conferences and the republican committee needs to buy time on prime time t.v. to give the other side as often as necessary. enough with the lying back and hoping for the best. it´s not working.

Oh so true, #3. Can you imagine the hay Dems would make from such a horrendous and shameful incident? Dems would have had the two parents who were willing to speak out initially before the committee and the news cameras. They would have played up the ambassador´s orientation as a reason for the neglect of his safety, the extreme bravery of the former SEALS, the prophetic last tweet of the gamer Smith, and the abject lies told by the O gang for weeks afterward to the families, the public, the UN. The stand down order would have become a drumbeat for impeachment. Perhaps someone slips valium or marijuana into the GOP´s food in the Congressional dining rooms, or perhaps there´s blackmail involved.

Even if the republicans in DC cannot do the job of investigating this benghazi mess -- Americans know what happened. Thanks to the press in the UK and France....

No one would have to wonder where the killers are , if Obama had tried to defend Americans under attack. My analogy is to a house set ablaze by an arsonist and then someone ordering the fire department not to respond. There are two areas to be investigated , not just the one the MSM is focusing on . I´m surprised Eli Lake hasn´t been reassigned to Antarctica-he´s bravely gone where the rest of the media refuses to go. You can´t just look for the murderers ( hint, hint..Islamic terrorists ) , the bizarre behavior of Obama on the night of the attack must also be investigated. The White House stated that Obama went to bed knowing that Ambassador Stevens and other white " bumps in the road " , were missing and the consulate under enemy fire. A normal and American Commander in Chief would had stayed up all night monitoring the situation primarily because he feared for the lives of all the 30 plus Americans at the consulate. Obama shows more affection and care for his personalized basketballs and special Nikes than he does for his fellow man. Reggie Love and Kal Penn being the lone exceptions ....

The Benghazi gate Lie, the murders, have all been topped by the painful brutality of the school shooting. It was too convenient not to question its terrifying timing of both events. Reminds of WAG THE DOG, THE MANCHURIAN CANDIDATE, TELFONE. Yes that´s a brutal suggestion, but no more brutal than all the killings that are purposely being covered up. For all the amazing things that are happening in the creative free exchange world of today, these are terrible, deathly political deficit driven, greed ridden times

Amb. Stevens knew something Obama doesn´t want told, so O left him and all the others to die. He had no way of knowing the ex-Seals would be able to save 30 of those people when he went to bed. He thinks now if he ignores it, it will go away. I hope Hillary comes clean for a change. She isn´t famous for telling the truth.

I think we need to get rid of the notion that this building was a "consulate". It was a CIA station house under flimsy diplomatic cover complete with its own torture room. "Ambassador" Stevens was a CIA gun-runner funneling Gaddafi´s pilfered arms to Turkey for use by the Rebels in Syria. Those 30 survivore were all CIA agents so don´t expect them to appear in public anytime soon. They don´t want to be identified. The whole thing was an Obama/Hillary-concocted nightmare, run by incompetents. Job #1 for Obama was to lie to the American people about what happened.

After lengthy investigations, the Pentagon has determined that three Army generals committed misconduct in separate incidents, adding to an unusually long list of senior military commanders who have been censured over the past year.On Friday, defense officials confirmed that Army Maj. Gen. Ralph O. Baker, the commander of a strategic counterterrorism force on the Horn of Africa, was fired March 28 on charges of sexual misconduct. Two officials familiar with the case said Baker was investigated for allegedly groping a female civilian employee after he had been drinking.

President Obama´s biggest gaffe yesterday when speaking of California Attorney General Kamala Harris was not in flirtatiously complimenting her as "the best-looking attorney general," but in introducing an observation from the system of beauty into a forum that was about the system of power.What´s that, you say? Irin Carmon does a great job in Salon in laying out the bounds of propriety for when it´s appropriate to talk about a woman´s looks as a general matter.

Friday, however, he managed to upset conservatives at the annual conference known as CPAC, where thousands of bewildered Republicans gathered to figure out the way forward after their party’s 2012 electoral defeat. Murray ditched his prepared remarks on “America Coming Apart” in favor of an impromptu admonition to fellow conservatives to accept the legalization of both gay marriage and abortion.

VATICAN CITY—It took Jorge Mario Bergoglio four minutes to convince fellow cardinals he was their leader. Speaking in the Paul VI grand hall of the Vatican, the Argentine cardinal warned the Catholic Church against focusing too much on matters close to home—advice that came against the backdrop of a papacy that had been consumed by infighting among Vatican officials, a dwindling flock in Europe and secular trends in the West. The 76-year-old Father Jorge, as he is known back home, said Roman Catholicism needed to shift its focus outward, to the world beyond Rome—rather than being "self-referential," he said.

When President Obama gets to Jerusalem next week, one of the signals to listen for is an indication of what country he thinks he’s in. Normally this is clear when the President — any president — goes to the capital of a foreign country. He’s in whatever country the capital is capital of. But Mr. Obama has been refusing to recognize Jerusalem as the capital of Israel. Not only that, but he has been refusing to admit that Jerusalem is even in Israel.

"Right now, we think it would take over a year or so for Iran to actually deliver a nuclear weapon, but obviously we don’t want to cut it too close,” the President told an Israeli television interviewer, in the process cutting Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu off at the knees and giving the mullahs breathing room to keep enriching uranium.

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.”

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.

In a stunning end to one of the most aggressively unsuccessful tenures in retail history, JCPenney (JCP) last night announced that CEO Ron Johnson would be leaving effective immediately. 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.

The state of California is reportedly considering legislation that would force group insurance policies to provide infertility treatment for gay and lesbian couples. Two men who have sex with each other for a year and do not produce a baby would be considered “infertile” under the proposed legislation. So would two women having sex. Since biology does not allow those without a uterus to conceive or those without a penis to impregnate, every year-long gay couple in California would potentially be covered by this new provision of California law.
