Who would have thought the spirit of Sargent Schultz, of Hogan's Heroes fame, would possess the body of our wonderful president--note the sarcasm dripping from that statement. Our president, Barack Hussein Obama (umm, umm, umm), seemingly is unaware of anything that he should know. Just as he was unaware of the gun-running operations of the Justice Department to Mexican drug cartels which resulted in the deaths of hundreds of Mexican citizens and one of our border agents, Obama has no idea what happened in Benghazi on September 11, 2012. It has been nearly two and a half months and when questioned about what happened and why, his response is, in essence, "I know Nothing!" To be honest, he does not actually put it that way. His usual response is actually an effort to sidestep the question with an irrelevant suggestion that he is offended that anyone would suggest that he would be politically motivated in any way. Or, he declares that "we are trying to get to the bottom of it" and "we will bring the perpetrators to justice". His notions of actual justice being brought to bare would be laughable, if I thought for a moment that it was at all funny.
We have a real problem with the Benghazi event. We are not being told why Stevens was in Benghazi, a hotbed of terrorist activity, on 9-11, after telling his superiors at the State department that he feared for his safety and requesting more security, with a light security team. Why was he meeting a Turkish official just hours before he was attacked and killed? Why? What did he do while 4 Americans were being murdered? What did the president know and when did he know it? Who was calling the shots?
We also have a real problem with the news media, who gets excited about an extra-marital affair by CIA head, David Petraeus, while they give the president a pass on the a fore mentioned questions. Granted, a FOX reporter dared ask a question, but the other news organizations have been silent. They are constantly protecting their Messiah--Obama is obviously the closest thing they have to deity in their lives--from any political harm. Any evenhanded observer would know that a Republican president would not be able to skate through such a debacle as Benghazi gate without an anal exam by the press. It is what the press is supposed to do. The fact that they choose not to, is a very serious problem for the nation. Ignorance may be bliss, as they say, but it is also the very road to destruction. Did I just coin a phrase? I hope so. When a political storm strikes a presidency, the press should not be providing a rain coat for him to keep from getting wet. America, WE Have A Problem!
