I fantasize about the ramifications. Alas, not to be.

The Dear Leader is counting on the demoralization that conservatives can generate. It's just as effective as demonization.

I burning question is what will it take for the media to turn on Zero? I’m guessing a whole lot more than the Benghazi coverup.

The media will not turn on Obama until -- and only if -- impeachment is imminent. If the Democrats ever start serious talk of impeachment, the media will turn.

If only Republicans talk of impeachment, the media will defend their guy against any and all.

In judging the media's actions nowadays, you have to start from the premise that they are the propaganda-wing of the Democrat party.

Democrats are agitated now. On Wednesday they will be scurrying like the cockroaches that they are.

Hillary Clinton is THE original source of the 'video did it' excuse for Benghazi, Cairo and all the rest of the embassy riots around the world. Hillary did it!

US Embassy in Cairo quietly deletes its ‘we stand by our condemnation’ tweet; Update: More deleted tweets!

Here is Hillary pushing it again on Sept. 13th.

Clinton: Anti-Islam Video 'Disgusting' (video 2:56)

Here is a 'senior administration official' trying to distance 0bamugabe from Hillary's f-up and at the same time admitting by inference that she was the source of the 'video did it' meme.

Senior administration official: The Cairo embassy’s statement does not reflect the view of the U.S. government; Update: Romney calls embassy statement “disgraceful”

posted at 10:34 pm on September 11, 2012 by Allahpundit

The White House is disavowing a statement from their own Cairo embassy that apologized for anti-Muslim activity in the United States.

“The statement by Embassy Cairo was not cleared by Washington and does not reflect the views of the United States government,” a senior administration official told POLITICO…

“Some have sought to justify this vicious behavior as a response to inflammatory material posted on the Internet. The United States deplores any intentional effort to denigrate the religious beliefs of others. Our commitment to religious tolerance goes back to the very beginning of our nation. But let me be clear: There is never any justification for violent acts of this kind,” Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said in a Tuesday statement.

And here 0bamugabe and Hillary work together to try to prop up her 'video did it' nonsense and spread it even further.

Nope, she never said anything about a 'video.'

“CBS has gone a bit off the reservation”

Yes I was quite surprised at Scheiffer on Disgrace the Nation.

Maybe they realize there’s a story here, need the bucks?

That is a very good question.

One wonders how it is that anybody in the White House (or State) came to even be aware of such an obscure production.

Unless, that is, they were somehow associated with the production...

Obama administration's talking points on Benghazi, edited to remove references to extremism and blaming protests against an anti-Islamic YouTube video for the violence, were "false. They were wrong. There were no protests outside the Benghazi compound."

So we falsely put a guy in jail over free speech to cover for this president. Is he still in jail?

I still do not get where the up roar is over his free speech rights and why people do not see the danger here.

For Democrats, any sense of “justice” is tempered by “just us”. While for tactical reasons, they may back away from The Won, still, their resistance is so low, they are easily pulled back in with promises and sweet talk, not forgetting for a moment who exercises the power of the purse.

On the short term, the Executive Branch has wide discretion on directing the funds already authorized by Congress, and apparently, the Current Occupant of the White Hut believes it easier to win forgiveness than to earn permission.

Democrats, every one of them, are made of much less moral fiber than are the more conservative members of the Republican caucus. To be sure, not all Republicans are endowed with much backbone, either, but most of them have been identified and to some degree, they still respond to leverage.

Incestuous.

Did McInsane or his inamorato Graham say anything today?

Just reloaded on popcorn.

The only question is how far will they back off. I hope and pray for justice but I have little faith in those people.

When the going gets tough, the RATs go left. This article implies a faithfulness for the truth that libs will abandon at the first hint of trouble. Pelosi and/or Reid will have a long chat with any deserting party member. Serious testicle compression to follow.

Obama is starting to get the lame duck label. The mojo is gone.

His signature achievement, Obamacare, has even Democrats labeling it a train wreck.

He was stuffed on the sequester and gun control.

Immigration reform will be on Republicans’ terms.

Another of the thousand cuts will be Benghazi. No one has had to pay yet for the incompetence and lies.

The focus is rapidly turning from him to Hillary. Hillary’s response to recent developments will reveal whether or not she’s going to run.

If she continues to play on the Obama team, then she’s running - she won’t alienate the base. If she cuts Obama loose, then she’s not running. She’s just trying to preserve her name and influence.

Democrats, for the most part, are not going to turn on Obama and Hillary. They know better if they don’t want to have their lives completely destroyed. Hillary & her apologists (especially in the media) are ruthless liars. Those whistleblowers (& their familes/friends) are going to be dragged to hell & back by a bunch of low life Obama/Hillary employees & supporters.

The ramifications started this morning with a shot across to bow when the congressman from MA on Fox New Sunday said that one of the whistleblowers was looking for a promotion.

The Dem congressmen just don’t realize they aren’t dealing with a couple of incompetent attorneys who are afraid of them. Digenova & Toensing have been to this rodeo before. It is going to be interesting to see how far the apologists are willing to go to defend Obama/Hillary and still have any credibility left.

Not only were there no protests in Benghazi, Libya the protests in Cairo, Egypt had nothing to do with the "Youtube video." That whole thing was a lie through and through.

Brian Lilley: The MSM is lying about the muslim riots
Interviews on the streets of Cairo. 'Video' had nothing to do with protests and attack.
