Dear Mr. and Mrs. America,

I'm terribly sorry, but you won't be allowed to know just what happened this week in Benghazi because it might be embarrassing to certain parties, and we, the members of the MSM, have a president to reelect.

We'll get back to you. Maybe.

All the best,

ABC, CBS, NYT, WaPo, NBC, Politico, etc.

State Department statement on Benghazi:

“I'm going to frustrate all of you, infinitely, by telling you that now that we have an open FBI investigation on the death of these four Americans, we are not going to be in a position to talk at all about what the U.S. government may or may not be learning about how any of this this happened — not who they were, not how it happened, not what happened to Ambassador Stevens, not any of it — until the Justice Department is ready to talk about the investigation that's its got,” State Department spokeswoman Victorian Nuland told reporters late Friday afternoon.

Elderly Soviet propagandists must be wondering why they wasted their time jamming radio transmitters and smashing printing presses when they could just have sent everyone to Columbia Journalism School.

That's got to be the most damning remark on a social institution that I have ever heard. If I were a journalist I'd be cutting my throat about now.

Son of U.S.S. Cole Investigation, some say. Great movie! Excitement! Intrigue!

State has done it again!

Now showing! The Embassy Horror

.. the movie starts as FBI agents enter Libya only to find Libyan, U.S. State Department and Obama Administration personnel already enraged at them and ready to end the investigation even before it starts because.. well, you will just have to see the movie! Truly like the 2000 State-Clinton White House production of U.S.S. Cole -- this time starring Hillary! as herself.

***..I understand that America has decayed from a land of laws to a land of legalisms***

What if the the embassies had done this in 1900 Peking? They stood a 55 day siege till relieved.

Compare that to the debacle the English got into in 1885 Khartoum. Sounds almost like a redux with the USA in the besieged position.

I’m sorry, but the media isn’t a bunch of misguided ideologues. No ideologue would dare to come out and attack Romney to cover up for the incompetence of this Democrat administration. You have to pay people to act as stupid as the media is. And you have to pay them a lot. Our media is just a bunch of paid, oily Democrat shills standing in front of the Democrat sideshow crying, “See her shake! See her shimmy! It’s Hillary, the queen of Sheba!”

Everyone be sure to click on the link at the end to see Steyn's other comments on this hellish fiasco.

Elderly Soviet propagandists must be wondering why they wasted their time jamming radio transmitters and smashing printing presses when they could just have sent everyone to Columbia Journalism School.

Only Steyn could come up with something like that!

The the FBI is now a tool of coverup, wait-it-out, and obfuscation. The law is a pretext for rewriting a fiction and then slowly spoonfeed the tripe to a wornout public.

DOES ANYONE OUT THERE BELIEVE ANYTHING THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT TELLS THEM?

I wanna be like Steyn.

Obama is often [rightfully, IMO] compared to Carter and the Embassy attacks are certainly similar to the Tehran hostage-taking. The difference is that, then, ABC would create a show, "America Held Hostage, Day XXX" that ran for years each night hosted by Ted Koppel.

As a young man more interested in picking up chicks at the corner bar than in politics, Koppel's show, nonetheless, got through to me. I think he played a big part in Reagan's victory -- much to his annoyance.

Something like that could never happen now. It's an illustration of how far the left has advanced in three decades.
