— Gabriel Malor Happy Wednesday. Just a few items from me.
Romney choked up yesterday talking about a Navy SEAL who died in Benghazi on September 11.
Toyota has recalled 7.43 million cars that pose a fire risk if a sticky door switch is improperly repaired. U.S. owners will be notified by mail if their car needs to be fixed.
Wal-Mart, in a challenge to Amazon, is testing same-day delivery. Same day. What a world.

The Secret Life of J. Edgar Hoover
No one exemplified paranoia and secrecy at the heart of American power better than J. Edgar Hoover, the original director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation. Renowned investigative journalist Anthony Summers's consummate biography of Hoover reveals a flawed individual who should never have held such power, and for so long.

2Do you suppose SCOMF would order a strike to get out of a debate?
Nah. He can multi task. He kept track of the spontaneous demonstration outside the Benghazi consulate while attending a community organizing event in Las Vegas.

Issa reminds me of a little yappy dog. Out on a leash, it acts ferocious, but eventually wants to go back inside and be quiet. That's our boy -- he jumps up and makes a fuss over every illegal action, perceived slight or other disturbance, calls for an "investigation" (which gets him lots o' ink and cred) and then does nothing.
Like Boner, Bitch McConnell and other worthless, high-and-might Repubs, Issa needs to be handed his walking papers. Fewer "investigations" (that produce actual results) would be far more worthwhile than Issa's yapping and toothless pursuits.

The story about Romney and meeting Glen Doherty at the Christmas party will be in the next debate with Obama. My bet is he talked to the family and received a go-ahead to use Glen's name.
And Mitt will use it to rhetorically cut someone off at the knees. And the MSM will cry foul.

Ugh. There's a documentary on TV called "Barack Obama: Great Expectations". It appears to be French made. Here's the description- "An epic tale of White House battles. Since taking office, Obama has had to confront an economic crisis as well as an opposition determined to discredit him and destroy his agenda." It's presented by some NY times douche and has a typical Jesus/Barry splash photo. Anyone seen this suck?

Other people at State HAD to know that he had requested security increases and that the team had been sent away. They also knew about all of the attacks. I bet there are some angry and grief-stricken friends of Stevens who want justice done.
Which brings me back to the diary. What if that diary was taken from his room and given to someone with the admonition to say it was found in Benghazi? I make note that the one person who was most upset about the diary was that Hillary assistant from State, who has hitched his wagon to hers. NONE of these questions would have been asked effectively if CNN hadn't acquired that diary.

Benghazi. Already saw a few articles suggesting that they are lining up targets to bomb.
And it will be so patently obvious. Why bomb an "innocent" country when the cause of the attack was a right-wing American Christian?
Then again, TFG might bomb Fullerton, CA in retaliation.

The Obamao coterie is used to the 'what happens in the faculty lounge stays in the faculty lounge' way of life where nothing has consequences (except for perhaps tenure or no).
A real world where real people live or die based upon the results of political theory as actually implemented is beyond their capability to understand. And besides, it is only the little people that are affected by the politics.

I've been saying that from the get-go; that there are plenty of pissed off people that knew Stevens but are wondering where to turn to get the real story out without suffering the same fate. That's why I was wondering if, by that CBS reporter covering the story (Cheryl Atkisson or something like that) that covered Fast and Furious, she's letting it be known that they can come to her to blow the whistle on the fucks who did this. Because they sure as hell can't trust the rest of the quisling media.

I noticed a marked turn in reporting on Romney right after that (such as Candy Crowley defending him on tax deductions). Not anything overt, but a change in tone. I wondered then if that diary had been passed around and more than one reporter knew stuff.
I had not seen that about the CBS reporter. Lara Logan is also highly critical and gave that speech about how the administration has been lying about the Taliban for two years. THAT left a mark, because Leslie Marshall was on Fox yesterday attacking Logan as "emotional" because she had been raped, inferring that her criticisms (actually based on reporting she had done in Afghanistan) were not fact-based.
I am interested to see who will testify before Issa today.

If the MSM was doing there jobs, there would be torches and pitchforks in DC by now. Because those shits are covering for Obama or just too God damned stupid to understand what they have been told, the Republicans have to force the story out there. I knew it was a terrorist assault as soon as I heard RPGS and MORTARS were used. Then I heard the safe house was hit too. (By the way, I think that is where the Seals died, not the consulate with the ambassador.)
Now that I have heard Romney use Glen Doherty's name, expect this to really hit the fan, and become the story it should. If this had been Bush, Reagan, or Clinton, I would feel the same way. Someone really screwed the pooch, and four (4) people are dead.
By the way, why are there no stories on the wounded? There were several people wounded on 9/11-9/12 in Benghazi. Where are their stories? Someone is hiding them.

Lara Logan is suspect as a journalist because she has actually seen the beast up close and all too personal so she obviously can't be "objective".
After much hope, I have concluded that Issa fits Will Shakespeare's "full of sound and fury, signifying nothing" description. Of course, having Boner as "leader" doesn't help, because actual substantive legislative action might rock the boat (and delay the start of the open bar).

I saw a few morons talking about this yesterday. Is Marshall one of the shitstains that fatassed cocksucker Ailes has brought in so his lib friends keep inviting him to parties? He's making Fox as worthless as the other alphabet networks and they still get frozen out of covering things in this corrupt administration. Brilliant business plan, Roger.

To me, Heinlein was a bit erratic, because some of his stuff always felt like he was trying to make the rent, but he did a lot of classics. The best political one I can remember off the top of my head is "The Moon is a Harsh Mistress".
He also wrote the line that "Civil servant is semantically equivalent to Civil Master!"

I think Ailes was scared he and the entire network would have been smeared as racists by the rest of the media in 2009. Not that they didn't try it anyway. But I think he was really afraid of the boycotts and smears, and told every one to lighten up.
Or it could have been Rupert himself? He has a lot of trouble with the cell phone hacking shit in England. He was probably afraid for his licenses here in the US. After all, this administration is run by Chicago thugs, and license trouble or union trouble for their enemies is the Chicago way.
See if the coverage changes in 2013 after Romney is in charge?

Someone dumped a pile of horse manure in the parking lot of the headquarters building on U.S. 42, just north of Lebanon.
Warren County Democratic chair Beth Goldenfield tells Local 12 that the pile was dumped in the parking lot, blocking the entrance to the building, sometime between 10 p.m. Monday and 9 a.m. Tuesday. A report was filed by the party with the Warren County sheriff's department.
Goldenfield says no one has claimed responsibility for the prank.

Will salting the audience be their October Surprise? Is this what all the otherwise inexplicable talk about Big Bird is meant to convey to the obsessive true believers in the Obamacult?
I heard Crowley say on the radio (I forget which Right Talker's show) say Gallup picked the audience. Gallup. The Gallup under investigation by the Holder "Justice" Dept.
You won't have understood the poignant depth of such as "A Beautiful Mind" (2001) unless you've read "Witness" by Whittaker Chambers (the pumpkin, the pumpkin).

Why would CNN [or CNNi] refuse to air the Nick Robertson report with Muhammed Al Zawahiri (brother of Ayman Al Zawahiri) that clearly shows the Egyptian uprising was 100% in response to his call for protests for release of the Blind sheik on 9-11.? Why would the “most trusted name in news“, hide the report showing the truth, and instead allow the false narrative to be sold, by them, to the American electorate?
CNN never aired the Nick Robertson report in Egypt because it completely contradicted President Obama and Hillary ClintonÂ’s assertions. In short, the Robertson report, if aired, would have proved Obama and Clinton were lying.
The Nick Robertson CNN report was filmed on 9/9 and, by coincidence, it would have aired at the exact moment Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama began attributing the Egyptian embassy protest to a “U-Tube Video”.

Unfortunately, Team RR really can't complain. They don't seem to have a problem letting the leftists in the media set the debate terms 100%. They didn't ask for Brett Baier or Megan Kelly to moderate, for Fox to sponsor. They're knowingly walking into the belly of the beast. Curious. Unless they are super duper confident.

Unfortunately,
Team RR really can't complain. They don't seem to have a problem
letting the leftists in the media set the debate terms 100%. They
didn't ask for Brett Baier or Megan Kelly to moderate, for Fox to
sponsor. They're knowingly walking into the belly of the beast.
Curious. Unless they are super duper confident.

Not sure it is confidence so much as it is the realization that everyone knows Obama is, and always has been, in over his head. You can't hide it anymore.
I think after SCOAMF's first performance, it will be very obvious if the MFM attempts to cover for him. It will make him look weak.
And I'm OK with that.

One thing I will say, I did see Romney a week or so ago doing an interview. He basically said he was well aware of the hostility of the press, both generally and what he might expect in the debates. He said he was ready for it. It did make me feel more at ease that he wasn't thinking they were all his "friendsh" like McLame did. I don't think Romney or Ryan are blindly walking into the lion's den with chops tied around their necks.

Why would CNN [or CNNi] refuse to air the Nick Robertson report with Muhammed Al Zawahiri (brother of Ayman Al Zawahiri) that clearly shows the Egyptian uprising was 100% in response to his call for protests for release of the Blind sheik on 9-11.? Why would the “most trusted name in news“, hide the report showing the truth, and instead allow the false narrative to be sold, by them, to the American electorate?
CNN never aired the Nick Robertson report in Egypt because it completely contradicted President Obama and Hillary ClintonÂ’s assertions. In short, the Robertson report, if aired, would have proved Obama and Clinton were lying.
OMG !!!!!!!!!!!

I hope Ryan can throw the Democrats underpaying women in the WH and Congress back at them. Add in the stories about Obama's Frat House atmosphere, and the usual Democrat Sexual harassment. Make Biden eat it.
But the ACLU is more worried about Abortion.

I said that pretty early on (like writing 2 autobiographies at an early age for somebody who'd never done a fucking worthwhile thing in his nondescript life) and thinking that he won the fucking debate just was additional evidence. Anybody with a functioning cortex who sucks major cock like he did at the debate is hyper aware of that and is horrified. He needs intense therapy and to live in a supervised environment instead of the fucking White House. Thanks again 52%.

1) if the hearings start going bad and catch traction in the not so free press and the questions start mounting
or
2) if Romney hands Obama his ass at the debate on foreign Policy and he needs to try to stop the continued momentum.
There are a couple of other scenarios.
If team Obowmao comes out bruised heavily from the town hall bs debate and thinks they are going to have their ass handed to them at the foreign policy debate,
A) the bombs will preemptively drop the day of the debate to bolster The Stuttering Clusterfucks what a pussy rating before he gets on stage, or
B) to give cover for cancelling the debate.
In the end this shit stain of an administration will stop at nothing to gain a political advantage.
But I dont see how they benefit by bombing at this point.
The why did you lie to cover up question is out there now.
And with the falling poll numbers blood in the water...the media has to know those internals even if they blow unicorn farts for the average joe on tv, maybe these spineless shit sucking fucktards that run the media and manufacture the news, suddenly realize oh shit, what do we do after obama? and the self preservation gene found in all cockroaches rats motivates these intellectually diseased and morally defunct cunts to actually you know, do some reporting.
