No Unanswered Questions
During a recent White House press briefing, Jay Carney uttered words he may soon regret
when responding to a question on the continued criticism of Ambassador
Rice’s September 16th Sunday talk show circuit.
Mr. Carney stated “there are no unanswered questions regarding Ambassador Rice’s appearance on Sunday Shows and the talking points she used”. However, it seems Senators McCain, Graham and Ayotte disagree.
According to Brietbart news, the Senators released the following statement after their closed door meeting with Ambassador Rice:
We respectfully disagree with the White House’s statement that ‘there are no unanswered questions’ about Ambassador Rice’s September 16 Sunday show appearances and the talking points she used.
Around 10:00 am this morning in a meeting requested by Ambassador Rice, accompanied by acting CIA Director Mike Morell, we asked Mr. Morell who changed the unclassified talking points to remove references to Al Qaeda. In response, Mr. Morell said the FBI removed the references and did so to prevent compromising an ongoing criminal investigation. We were surprised by this revelation and the reasoning behind it.
However, at approximately 4:00 this afternoon, CIA officials contacted us and indicated that Acting Director Morell misspoke in our earlier meeting. The CIA now says that it deleted the Al Qaeda references, not the FBI. They were unable to give a reason as to why.
We are disturbed by the Administration’s continued inability to answer even the most basic questions about the Benghazi attack and the Administration’s response.
Beyond Ambassador Rice’s misstatements, we continue to have questions about what happened in Benghazi before, during, and after the attack on our consulate – as well as the President’s statements regarding the attack.
Perhaps most important, we also need to understand why the U.S. military was unable to respond within seven hours to save American lives in Benghazi and why our consulate was left so unsecured despite a series of previous attacks.
In more than a dozen letters, we and other Senators have repeatedly requested that the Administration provide answers to our questions. Yet, today most of them remain unanswered. We eagerly await their response.
During the same press briefing Mr. Carney went on to say “the questions that remain to be answered, and that the President insists be answered have to do with what happened in Benghazi, who was responsible for the deaths of 4 Americans, including our Ambassador. And what steps we need to take to ensure something like that does not happen again”.
Well Mr. Carney, it seems on this point we agree. Let’s hope Senators McCain, Graham and Ayotte give President Obama the opportunity to answer those questions he insists be answered. Let’s hope the Senators take the President seriously and ‘go after him.’ After all the President did say during his November 11th presser he is “happy to have that {Benghazi} discussion with them”.
Mr. President, we’re waiting.

Landslide lyric parody in honor of my predicted Romney victory
When they saw Barack, they saw hope
And many Americans went to cast their vote
With hope for change and a turnaround
But the unemployment rate never came down
But the unemployment rate never came down
Oh, Mr. President
Where is hope?
Is it 46m on food stamps or an Obama phone
Can I ignore your failed policies and vacation time
Can I vote with 12.3m in the unemployment line
Can I vote with 12.3m in the unemployment line
Well I've been afraid of changing
Cause I really thought you would come through
But time made me bolder
Blaming bush just got older
And I'm starting to waiver too
Oh, I'm voting Romney soon
So, I'm casting my vote on Tuesday night
Its hard to admit I was not right
I wonder when we see the returns on Election night
If the MSM will report a landslide
And when We see Romney win on Election night
The MSM will be in for the shock of their lives
Bc a landslide brought him down. A landslide brought BO down.

Gotta Love Twitter!
I haven't posted in a few weeks but it is not because I've had nothing to say regarding the latest political happenings. Instead there is so much to say I've had a difficult time determining which story is of most significance or how to write about so many topics in a succinct manner?
And then last night I received a response from a Barack Obama supporter to one of my tweets prompting me to write this post..... The tweet response is not the first one of its kind I've received from a BO supporter, and it is actually one of the tamer ones. But in my limited tweeting experience, it seems a typical response when a liberal has no argument or runs out of topics picked up from the latest DNC talking points. Come to think of it, sounds a lot like Barack Obama's re-election campaign. And it goes something like this.....
Me: I tweeted an article quoting Colin Powell's support of BO and his praising of BO's economic policies. Along w the link I said. 'I've lost much respect for CP. What an Idiot'
Liberal: just bc he doesn't agree wit (nice spelling). Some unknown, common, narrow minded stank hoe(Again. Nice spelling as I don't believe he was referring to me as a garden tool)
Me: Idiot may have been a little too harsh, I meant moron. (notice my sarcastic humorous response)
From the libs next tweet, I believe sarcastic humor may be lost on him.....
Liberal: Hoe (Again w the garden tool reference) might have been a little harsh. I should have said B!TCH (he used the I) CNT (he added a U before the N) go get raped and take dat dick.
Me: Language completely expected from a BO supporter. The POTUS who calls his opponent a bullshitter.
Liberal: and I swear he said this, I am not making this up............... 'seriously name calling should stay out of intelligent political discourse, can't we disagree w/o being disagreeable'
Seriously????
After which I blocked the idiot-moron.
It's completely insane to waste time trying to have a discussion with a liberal of this nature. One who resorts to name calling when he has nothing to say.
But really, why expect anything more from a BO supporter given what our POTUS and his re-election campaign team believes will resonate with their base, such as:

But really, why expect anything more from a BO supporter given what our POTUS and his re-election campaign team believes will resonate with their base, such as:
- Stump speeches about the big issues: Big Bird, Bayonets, & Binders
- An interview with Rolling Stone magazine in which Obama references Romney as a bullshitter. (Such nice language from our POTUS, isn't he just so cool)!
- Hit all the serious/hard hitting news & interview shows like: Pimp with a Limp, The View, David Letterman, Jay Leno and The Daily Show with Jon Stewart. None of which will ask him the tough questions like:
- We understand the Benghazi attack is under investigation, and you don't want to politicize it or comment until the investigation is complete. So then why did your administration repeatedly say the attack was the result of a spontaneous reaction to an anti-Islamic video after having knowledge the video had nothing to do with the attack? That kind of seems like jumping to conclusions when you hadn't received all the facts.
- And, why is the video maker in jail without bond for breaking his parole when folks like Lindsay Lohan break theirs over and over by using drugs, shop lifting, being a no show for a court dates and yet somehow can get out of jail in a matter of days? If I understand it correctly, the video maker broke his parole by using a computer to make the video that had nothing to do with the Benghazi attack. And he remains in a CA jail with no bail until after the election. Harsh.
- And finally, as you suggested, we investigated your debate assertion that Romney wanted to liquidate the auto industry, to destroy it, even writing an op-ed piece about it. What we, and even David Letterman found true after reading the article was Romney said he thought a structured bankruptcy was more appropriate as it would allow the company to make the necessary changes to be successful in the long run. Even David Letterman wants to know why you lied Mr. President.
- The real you without your surrogates to explain what you really meant
- The real you without the media to protect you
- The real you without your teleprompter
And it seems with the addition of the Benghazi scandal, the trust of many Americans who voted for you in 2008 is beginning to wane.
One can hope anyway.
And finally, just when I think the BO campaign can't go any lower, they surprise us all by lowering the bar, again. In an attempt to reach out to the youth vote, the campaign released a video comparing your first time voting to your first time having sex.
Look I'm not a prude, and I'll give you creativity on this one when reaching out to the 18-25 year old crowd. But as a mom and a US citizen I find the video tasteless, and it diminishes the office of the President.
The only good thing I can say about it, is it shows the campaign's desperation to get out the vote.
But while they may get a few more 18 year old voters to wake up in time to find their polling location, they have further eroded the female margin of support for BO. Bad form, and bad campaign move.
But I'll let you decide:

Libyan Timeline: Obama Administration Exposed
Below is a link to the timeline of the Obama administration's attempt to cover up the terrorist attack in Libya resulting in the death of 4 Americans. The timeline provides an eye opening account of the administration's coordinated effort to mislead the American people and blame a video for sparking a spontaneous attack on our embassy, when they knew there was nothing spontaneous about it.
http://www.foxnews.com/on-air/special-report-bret-baier/videos#p/86927/v/1892704860001
So why you ask did the Obama administration attempt to mislead the public about a terrorist attack occurring on the anniversary the worst terrorist attack in our nation's history? Doesn't make sense, right?
Unless of course you have the most dismal domestic policy record since the Carter administration, and your convention's theme just days before the terrorist attack was based on how You (barack obama) single handedly brought Al Qaeda to its knees and killed Osama bin Laden. I seem to recall hearing 'ask Osama bin Laden if he's better off now'?
Add the convention theme to the inexperienced community organizer in office, and the result is panic. You blame a spontaneous demonstration that never occured and a video for causing the death of 4 Americans. You send your people out to perpetrate the lie, and count on the main stream media to not ask questions, and the scary thing is.......you almost succeed.
After the attack, Romney made a statement about it and the lack of leadership on BO's part, and the media covered Romney's statement for days vs. the mounting evidence of the Obama administration cover up . You then attempt to keep the FBI from investigating the scene, saying its not safe for the FBI, but it was ok to leave our Ambassador unprotected?
In the clip you hear over and over about this offensive and disgusting video. Well let me tell you what I find offensive and disgusting..... The lack of security provided our ambassador/citizens. The fact that our president knew this was a terrorist attack and proceeded to go to Las Vegas for a fund raiser after. The fact that his administration actively participated in lying to the American people to save face during an election year.
But most of all, I find it disgusting and offensive that our media is such a colossal failure. They are such a propaganda machine for this administration. Actively ignoring important news such as this because it may not help BO's re-election chances.
