Mr. Whitewash

Yep, he's got to defend both Obama and his defense of Obama, the ARB.

Oh yea, young Hillary conspired to deprive Nixon of even a lawyer in his proposed Impeachment.

She is an evil person and oddly it has always been on full display. The firing of the travel office, the way she treated secret service and military people like luggage carriers, her standing order that no one could make eye contact with her in the White House.

Media and the folks felt sorry for her due to Bill’s cheating. Maybe happy-go-lucky Bubba strayed to get away from the evil witch? But her now being odds-on choice for next President?! No end in sight until at least 2020? God save us.

It's a never-ending job picking flies off of Obama's face.

Morning, AB, All....

Here I sit early in the morn having been awakened by some kind of cat howling brawl outside my bedroom window shortly before 6 am. I ran outside to try to break it up (whatever that cat was howling at, this was very loud and sounded vicious). I did run the offenders off but then I got scared.

One of Billy's cats, name is Lily, pretty calico girl, misses him so bad she howls sometimes at night, a painful howl, God I know she misses him, she loved him so much.

And she hates me.

Well HATE might be too strong a word; I was always the one who put ear drops in, pulled out mats....you know, the "bad" guy. Billy was her lover and it's too bad Delaware just passed same sex marriage cause soon I shall be able to marry my dog and by Lily, who is very liberal, she should be able to marry Billy.

If he were alive, that is, but hold on! I see no reason why we can't marry dead people. Give it time.

Anyway I got scared cause I couldn't find Lily; she has been trying to escape whenever I open a door...probably wants to go out and find Billy.

So there I am, outside just before dawn, all over my yard calling Lily, begging her to come home. Cause I couldn't find her in the house after the cat fight outside and I was convinced one of the fight participants was Lily.

I give up, go inside, sit down and just cry my heart out. Billy would never forgive me if one of his precious cats got out and got hurt or something.

Later on I am puttering around and out, boom, comes Lily.

I wanted to smack her.

So today it's all Benghazi and folks, this is just so bad. Hillary Clinton has never done a single damn good thing for this country. She's been nothing but a witch and a liar and brings absolutely nothing to the table, never did.

Now she lets four Americans just die? Oh I know Obamer called the stand down order but Hillary, mistress of lies and demonization, well.....see below....

As always, thank you AB for doing this thread, I, for one, appreciate it more than you know.

I want somebody, a reporter, an elected guy with air between the legs....somebody, to ask that awful Hillary woman....just ASK HER THE FOLLOWING:

"Madame Secretary, would you have let Chelsea stay at that Libyan embassy with the same security status as ambassador Stevens had?"

To go along with that ll-time low, reflect on the current morality of our country.

So few care about honesty and integrity.

Politics is just a game to them. Go team! Rah-Rah! Beat Republicans! Go-go-go!

I’ve talked to a few over this week. So many of them see nothing wrong, as they will not listen to the FACTS about Benghazi. To them, it’s just the Republicans trying to “get” Obama.

Until the driveby media actually starts telling the truth, in detail, nothing much will happen.

There’s a whole, huge world of people out there who believe in nothing except themselves—no God, the end justifies the means, everything is relative, jealous of the rich, star struck by celebrities, perpetually horny, democrat voters.

The politicians are just a manifestation of the problem—clueless, stupid, selfish Americans.

I saw announced yesterday that Sheryl Atkisson (the brave Bengnazi reporter on CBS) was going to have a full 45 minutes with Bob Schiefer.

It looks like that got scrubbed.

CBS news boss’s brother is in White Hosuye and had some hand in changing the talking points. Poor Sheryl.

Pickering declined an invitation to appear before Issa's committee, but he can appear on the Sunday talk shows.

Pickering is the bureaucrat's bureaucrat. He will be defending the State Department and Hillary. The State Department, read Hillary and Pat Kennedy, selected four of the five members for the ARB. The ARB was/is a sham.

Congress needs to appoint a select committee and do a real investigation of the matter. What I find appalling is that career government employees have now become political operatives who will do the bidding of the Dems. They have chosen sides, which should be a matter of great concern to everyone. The IRS case is a bigger scandal than Benghazi.

I expect to hear Pickering defend his findings and try to undermine the testimony of the three whistleblowers. Pickering is just another Susan Rice sent out to lie on behalf of the WH and the State Department.

Oh yea, Pickering will say we already covered this ground. Every witness said such and so. The distinguished Gen Dempsey said no one called in military; so no one called them off. We must ignore disgruntled out-lying lying malcontents who only seek some measure of fame.

There’s no doubt about any of this. The politicians created the electorate via the propaganda-driven school systems, with the media and celebrity culture only too happy to help. And, of course, the polticians are in turn elected and re-elected by their useful idiot minions. Morality is completely disparaged in the bargain, just as it was in Soviet Russia and all the Bloc nations, because nothing undercuts the Marxist agenda like unwavering values.

In the end, the polititicans care only for Power and Privilege and are motivated only for more of each or when either is jeopardized. The idiot minions get nothing meaningful out of any of this except vicarious goodies like a license to indulge themselves in gay sex or abortions or “medicinal” marijuana as if. I mean, they sell really cheap.

This was a political decision. The only way I can conceivably see Obama not following up that night was if he told them not to do anything(stand down)!

I don't expect any hard questions from NBC or CNN. And since the President of CBS has a brother in the Obama Administration who was involved in the cover-up, I doubt that Pickering will be pressed there.

Carney has a "deep background" off the record press conference for 14 news organizations to spin what happened. Now the WH and State decide to trot out Pickering to do damage control aided by a compliant media. And most telling is the fact that Pickering skipped Fox who really broke this story and held on to it like a bulldog. Sheer propaganda. Pickering is a prostitute.

It was September 11. That is an important date, right?

How could they be so dumb as to not expect an attack at an American embassy anywhere, let alone in Libya?

It looks like today is Benghazi Damage Control Sunday, starring Thomas Pickering. I’m surprised Issa was even invited onto one show.

I feel like she can be beaten in the general in 2016 but the Republicans will probably bungle it.

Let’s see if Gates and Pickering are asked: “Why did you not interview Clinton, Hicks, and survivors?” If the question is not asked, the media cover up continues.

I just checked the Face The Nation webpage, and Sharyl Attkisson is still on the lineup. She will be on during the second half hour.
