What did the president know, and when did he know it? Of what steel are the Republicans in Congress made? We’re about to find out.
Big scandals from little leaks grow. Watergate was at first only “a third-rate burglary.” Bubba thought he was only trying to cover up the details of a failed real-estate scheme down on the White River. Humiliation, resignation and even an impeachment followed.
History warns presidents that second terms are never Sunday picnics, and the unfolding — exploding is more accurate — of the story of what really happened on a violent night in Benghazi, Libya, and the days that followed is Barack Obama’s introduction to his next four years. We probably ain’t seen nothin’ yet.
Nearly everyone suspects that Mr. Obama, trying to avoid questions about the mishandling of Benghazi, was running out the clock, hoping to stumble past the election before being overtaken by facts and hard reality. Some of the congressional Republicans are talking bravely now about getting to the bottom of the sordid story, and the Democrats give every sign of attempting to squelch and evade: let’s move on, nothing to see here.

I don't like to think about what sort of thing it will take to awaken the American people.
I’d agree were it nor for the hazel eyes, large breasts, scorned wife, American hero in the midst of defense cuts..
I think this whole thing has $$ written on it for a pack of lib news hounds looking for their next paycheck.
Nobody died over Watergate. Benghazi cost lives. Look how the Media has hounded Obama over Fast and Furious. Expect them to redouble their efforts.
Petraeus was at odds from the beginning with O’bummer.
O’bummer got him where he could keep an eye on him - then sent a gal to compromise him - then sat on the ‘scandal’ until they needed it to shut him down or cover a situation like Benghazi.
It's the Chicago Way.
Unfortunately, Petraeus took the bait.
I wouldn't be surprised if he now has family safety being threatened to keep him for spilling the beans. (Remember Ollie to to put a security fence and other security measures from the threat against him.) Hope he doesn't ‘commit suicide.’
He's a good man caught in a web more evil than we have seen in our lifetimes. A good man and a long, honest and distinguised career delibrately destroyed.
What constantly amazes me is that so many people, even on this forum of all places, forget that Obama is nothing but a continuation of the Clinton empire. Obama has the Chicago mafia, but they are NOTHING compared to the Clinton machine.
Obama had to sell his soul to the Clintons in order to “ascend” to worldly power, and the Clintons will extract their remuneration when they choose.
Obama is Clinton, the Clintons are Obama.
They make tinfoil hats on voting days
That's unlike Wes. He is outstanding at correct spelling, grammar and usage. I'm surprised he used "steel" instead of "steal."
