Selective Moral Outrage – The Progressive Left and Selective “Boko Haram” Islamist Concerns

Does anyone else see a trail of historical similarity within the latest Boko Haram #BringBackOurGirls response from U.S. Political media ?

victory - obamaSept 2013 – When a shopping mall in Kenya came under attack (Massacre in Kenya) from Boko Haram Islamic Terrorists most U.S. media avoided the bigger discussion.   Some even claimed it was angry shoppers resorting to violence.

April 14th 2014 – When a Nigerian bus station came under attack (Massacre in Nigeria) from Boko Haram Islamic Terrorists, again most U.S. media avoided the bigger discussion.   71 people killed and 124 wounded.

April 16th 2014 –  Initially when 100 Nigerian school girls were abducted by Boko Haram Islamic terrorists, the U.S. media were silent.    Four days later, April 20th, that number climbed to 234 girls abducted.   Still nothing in the U.S. media.

However, all of a sudden, PRESTO,  around May 1st the progressive media picked up on the Nigerian abduction story and began a social media campaign.  (more…)

Pantsuits: “We Have To Rein In” The Second Amendment….

A position 180° away from those who think it’s about time to expand the application of 2nd amendment back toward the actual intent of protected firearm ownership.

Hillary ShrillaryNATIONAL HARBOR, Md. — Hillary Clinton on Tuesday offered her most detailed comments on domestic policy in months, calling for tighter gun restrictions while also going to bat for Obamacare and warning that rising economic inequality is contributing to “social collapse.”

As to whether she’ll run for the White House, however, Clinton said she’s still mulling it because there’s “a cost to everything.”

The former secretary of state, who would be the Democratic frontrunner in 2016 should she run, was delivering the keynote address at a conference held by the National Council for Behavioral Health, an organization that focuses on mental health.

“We have to rein in what has become [an] almost article of faith, that anybody can own a gun anywhere, anytime. And I don’t believe that,” she said.

Either “Tommy” Or “Mike” Were Lying – The CIA and White House Conflict On White House Benghazi Talking Points

“No man has a good enough memory to make him a successful liar”.    – Abraham Lincoln

Leon-Panetta-and-Michael-Morell-via-the-Secretary-of-Defense-Public-DomainWe’ve said from the outset that former CIA Head Mike Morell was specifically shaping his testimony to congress in a very specific manner to protect Hillary Clinton.  The evidence to that regard was/is simply self-evident.

Now that former NSC Spokesperson and White House liaison, Tommy Vietor, has admitted to changing the Benghazi talking points it would appear Morell was indeed lying to congress.

Isolate, Ridicule, Marginalize – With 59 Percent of Americans Thinking Obama Has Lied About Benghazi – New York Magazine Publishes Timely Hit Piece On Another Benghazi Reporter, Lara Logan…

The progressive agenda is transparent, even when the White House is not

obama and hillary(Washington DC)  Just over half the nation wants further investigation into the September 2012 terrorist killings of American diplomats in Benghazi, Libya, in part because an even larger percentage of the country does not believe that President Obama’s team has told the full story about the simmering scandal.

Rasmussen Reports revealed in a new poll that 51 percent want the investigation to go forward. The House last week ordered up a special panel to investigate the killings of the U.S. ambassador and several others and how the administration handled the crisis.

Worse for Obama, Rasmussen found that 59 percent feel it is unlikely the administration has revealed all of the details of the episode. And 50 percent are not satisfied with the administration’s story they’ve heard.  (read more)

On cue, and amid the new Benghazi false narrative revelations; and having isolated Sharyl Attkisson, New York mag strikes back to marginalize another Benghazi reporter.

Benghazi F.U.B.A.R. – Understanding the Oval Office activity on 9/11/12 – What Was, and What Was Not, Known…

Truth has only to exchange hands a few times to become fiction !

blood on their handsIn my opinion the activity within the White House on 9/11/12, the night of the Benghazi attack, is not riddled with hard to understand events.

If you separate the wheat from the chaff you begin to understand what the response, or lack thereof, was all about.

The wheat is “what they knew”, the chaff is what people “think they knew”.

Two fundamentally different aspects which can be brought into alignment with a simple review of known facts and known communications.

The Benghazi State Department compound came under direct attack at 9:40pm Libyan time, or 3:40pm (Eastern DC time). All times for this presentation will be in Washington DC time.

The first notification of the attack into the White House came through the State Department at 4:05pm via email cable. It said: “U.S. Diplomatic Mission in Benghazi Under Attack”. (more…)

Why Did Hillary Blame A U-Tube Video On Sept. 11th 2012 ? Flashback: Egypt 2012 Video Of Hillary Being Pelted With Tomatoes !

On September 11th 2012 radical Islamists through the Muslim Brotherhood had gained power in the Morsi administration.   As a consequence they scaled the walls of the U.S. Embassy in Cairo Egypt and hoisted the al-Qaeda flag during an organized protest by Brotherhood leader Mohammed Al Zawahiri.  They wanted the U.S. to release the Blind Sheik, an Egyptian terrorist.

But Hillary Blamed a U-Tube Video.

WHY ?   Because she had to !

What everyone forgets is the weeks leading up to September 11th 2012 in Egypt, and the sensibility on the ground.   What everyone forgets is the visit Hillary Clinton made to Cairo Egypt just a few weeks before Sept 11th 2012 and how she was received.

The Benghazi Crisis Points Toward Hillary and ‘Possibly Criminal’ Cover-Up (With State Dept FOIA Discovery Docs)

The New York Post has a strong article today outlining some of the issues.   To enhance their article I’m going to post some of the captured documentation within their article that pertains to the night of 9/11/12 and the communication flow into the State and National Security apparatus.

{*note* In addition I’m working on a comprehensive list of people who were in/out of the White House that night so that we can crowdsource their activity on 9/11/12.  …/Sd}

Make it go away!

obama-hillary-holding-hands-wh-photoThat was the message of the Obama administration and their friends in the media for the past two years, and now we know why: Benghazi is the scandal they always denied it was.

Thanks to a lawsuit by watchdog group Judicial Watch, the administration last week released correspondence about the terrorist attack in Libya on Sept. 11, 2012 that left US ambassador Christopher Stevens and three others dead.

One memo, from Ben Rhodes, the deputy national security director for strategic communications, shows how the administration was trying to spin the attack as something other than their own strategic failures. (more…)

Sharyl Attkisson: “Why Can’t We See Photos at White House During Benghazi Attack” ?

sharyl attkisson 2(Via Heritage) […] Sharyl Attkisson wants to know why the White House didn’t do the same thing after the Sept. 11, 2012, attack on the U.S. consulate in Benghazi, Libya, that resulted in the deaths of four Americans.

In an interview with Glenn Beck yesterday, Attkisson, a former CBS News investigative reporter, revealed that she requested White House photos taken as events in Benghazi unfolded more than a year ago — only to be met with silence.

“I’ve asked for the White House photographs taken that night,” Attkisson told Beck. “The White House photo office went from telling me the very day I asked that I could have them to referring me to Josh Earnest, a press officer at the White House, saying he had to release them. And it’s been a year-and-a-half and he won’t return my calls or emails.”

Benghazi Briefs: What Was The Policy Failure ? What Difference Does It Make ?

Two familiar questions have recently been resurrected by the professional left.  Both questions essentially stem from obfuscation and intentional deflection around the Libyan attack that killed four Americans in Benghazi.

When the conversation comes up about Benghazi, much of it is now focused on the lies and cover-up after the attack itself.   In an effort to diminish inquiry, the professional left throw out a familiar prose:  “Oh yeah, well if it’s a cover up what exactly were they trying to cover up”?
