Republican South Carolina Senator Lindsey Graham, who on rare occasions can be quite an asset to our republic, placed the following on Facebook this afternoon. "I think the dam is about to break on Benghazi. We're going to find a system failure before, during, and after the attacks. We're going to find political manipulation seven weeks before an election. We're going to find people asleep at the switch when it comes to the State Department, including Hillary Clinton. The bond that has been broken between those who serve us in harms way and the government they serve is huge — and to me every bit as damaging as Watergate."
CBS News investigative journalist Sharyl Attkisson has been the leader, by far, among the mainstream media in reporting the events of Benghazi, and finally, it appears her colleagues over at CBS have seen the light, as indicated by the devastating investigative report CBS News filed Sunday.
You need have been Lieutenant Colombo to recognize the events in Benghazi were a terrorist attack, and not a reaction by street gangs to a YouTube video nobody saw as put forth by the Obama administration, inclusive of both former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and President Barack Obama.
These were lies, despicable cold hearted lies, told to the surviving family members and the American people. To add minor insult to major injury, the filmmaker of the video was promptly arrested and remains in jail. Even The Washington Post recognizes the mistruths. In fact, unless you were part of the Obama propaganda team or having been residing under a rock, you knew it was a terrorist attack.
Everybody knew. We knew!
There were many in what could be considered the alternative media who spoke the truth about Benghazi from the get go. The usual suspects, including Sean Hannity and Mark Levin, stood firm in discrediting the portrayal presented by the propaganda of the administration and the lap dog media.
Glenn Beck, within just days of the attack, laid out the entire case of what really went on in Benghazi, and why, and we concurred. Along with his media arm The Blaze, Beck continues to be out front on Benghazi, and for that matter, most other issues.
Beck speculated that gun running was going on, and we agree. Although, due to the inability of our investigative staff to drive the nail home on this thus far, we cannot present a concrete case, we have noted activity centered around an upstate New York location being central to the air shipment of guns to Russian locations, which translated, are part of a path of guns making their way to Syrian rebels associated with, if not operated by, the Muslim Brotherhood.
Rush Limbaugh eloquently summarized the sad state of affairs of the current landsacape of Uncle Sam, being managed and operated by the blame America first crowd, in a blistering series of comments on top rated nationally syndicated radio show this afternoon:
One more thing about this Benghazi stuff, because the fireworks are gonna start tomorrow. But in a sane and normal era or world -- and I mean this, folks, from the bottom of my substantial and loudly beating heart (Ba-boom! Ba-boom!) -- what happened in Benghazi would finish the public career of Hillary Clinton. Any secretary of state, any secretary of defense who in supposedly peacetime -- peacetime they wanted us to believe existed! We all know we're not at peace with Al-Qaeda.
They tried to make everybody believe we're at peace. They had taken care of this enemy. They had killed bin Laden. They had gotten rid of Bush. They had made us loved and respected again. Four Americans dead, and not an effort made to save them. In any other administration, any other time, any other era, whoever was in charge of that and allowed that to happen and then offered the excuse, "Well, what difference does it make now?" or "Well, we couldn'ta gotten there in time," would have been gone.
They would have been publicly humiliated and gone. Deservedly so!
Things got ugly when the left went after Reagan during the Iran-Contra hearings, with all the networks going with wall to wall daytime coverage, postponing General Hospital and the like for weeks. It was big, with Ollie North and Fawn Hall and such. Benghazi; nothing to see here.
There are many outstanding questions about Benghazi beyond why the Obama administration failed to act in adequate fashion in efforts to rescue our countrymen. Why was Amb. Stevens meeting with the representative from Turkey? Did the discussion center around gun running? Or perhaps, should you wish to explore a conspiracy theory, was Amb. Stevens set up by our government to be abducted to set up an exchange of prisoners paving the way for the release of the "Blind Sheikh" and the effort went awry?
Obviously, the hearings have the potential to be blockbuster. We have not, and will not, ever forget about our countrymen who were left to die without the backup of our government, and we demand accountability and justice.
