See The Sign

Here's your sign.

Comedian Bill Engvall tells the story of approaching the airline luggage counter to inform the staff that his luggage is lost.  The airline staff member asked Engvall if his plane had landed. "No, I am having an out of body experience" relied Engvall.  "Here's your sign".

One would think Americans, no matter the side of the political aisle they tend to gather, would demand answers when four patriots, including a US Ambassador, were murdered in a terrorist attack.


They do.

However, a percentage of Americans exist that only want answers to these type of questions if the representative for the other party is in charge.  Here's your sign.  That is very sad commentary, and is an example of folks who are limited in principles and character. 

While most would be appalled to learn of this behavior, it is particularly distressing to learn that media members are actively engaged in a coverup of the aforementioned events in Benghazi.  Not only is news regarding Benghazi being selectively presented on the mainstream networks, but editorial columnists are cheerleading the lack of transparency and suppression of the facts by the Obama administration and the complicit news media.

Enter Dana Milbank, and a recent editorial from the left in Investors Business Daily. Here's you sign.

I must have missed all the legitimate inquiries over Benghazi having been adequately answered, because according to Milbank, all efforts by House Republicans to get answers are a complete waste of time. 

I obviously missed a change in what I considered to be the elusive transparency President Obama claimed his administration would have.  I guess all those documents have been turned over to the investigating committee, and everyone performed admirably.

Well, I did not miss a damn thing.

Milbank hopes his ridiculing editorials, combined with media outlets biased coverage of what little information the investigating committee has gathered versus the stonewalling, misleading evidence  and lack of transparency, will steer the public away from demanding answers.

Odds may favor Milbank and his teammates, but here is your sign.

What kind of people do not want answers when four Americans are killed?  What type of individuals would seek to suppress information in an effort to protect officials just because they are members of their team?

Here is a sign
When it comes to dereliction of duty, or the covering up of gun running, I could care less what political party the officials in charge are from.  In America, we have laws and principles we live by, and those who violate the public trust in this regard must be held accountable.

Not in the minds of the progressives currently in charge.  They are running the Alinksy model on all cylinders.  Ridicule your opponents, fire out misinformation, lie so often the truth becomes murky and win the day by any means necessary.

Sign, sign, everywhere a sign.  Here is another sign.  No out of body experience needed.
