~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The New York Times published the real story behind the Benghazi attack and Tea Party heads are 'splodin' all over the Right. They just can't let go of their favorite conspiracy theory, that all of this was either orchestrated by Al Qaeda and approved by Obama, or that Obama and Hillary and Susan Rice conspired to "ignore" the death and destruction. Either Obama did nothing, or Obama is a mastermind! Whatever - nothing can change the Tea Party minds!

From "A Deadly Mix in Benghazi" by David D. Kirkpatrick in The New York Times
Months of investigation by The New York Times, centered on extensive interviews with Libyans in Benghazi who had direct knowledge of the attack there and its context, turned up no evidence that Al Qaeda or other international terrorist groups had any role in the assault.
. . . Fifteen months after Mr. Stevens’s death, the question of responsibility remains a searing issue in Washington, framed by two contradictory story lines.

One has it that the video, which was posted on YouTube, inspired spontaneous street protests that got out of hand. This version, based on early intelligence reports, was initially offered publicly by Susan E. Rice, who is now Mr. Obama’s national security adviser.

The other, favored by Republicans, holds that Mr. Stevens died in a carefully planned assault by Al Qaeda to mark the anniversary of its strike on the United States 11 years before. Republicans have accused the Obama administration of covering up evidence of Al Qaeda’s role to avoid undermining the president’s claim that the group has been decimated, in part because of the raid that killed Osama bin Laden.

The investigation by The Times shows that the reality in Benghazi was different, and murkier, than either of those story lines suggests. Benghazi was not infiltrated by Al Qaeda, but nonetheless contained grave local threats to American interests. The attack does not appear to have been meticulously planned, but neither was it spontaneous or without warning signs.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

. . . they didn't talk to the people on the ground who were doing the fighting and shooting and the intelligence gathering. When you put that volume of information, I think it proves that story is just not accurate.
. . . I find the timing odd. I don't want to speculate on why they might do it, but I can tell you that the information that's being presented in a way that we heard before ... through the [committee] investigation [we] have been able to determine [it] is not accurate in its portrayal.
~ Rep. Mike Rogers R-Michigan, Chairman of the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence

We have seen no evidence that the video was widely seen in Benghazi, a very isolated area, or that it was a leading cause. What we do know is that September 11 [the date of the 2012 attack] was not an accident. These are terrorist groups, some of them linked to or ... self-claimed as al-Qaeda linked. ... Before I go on, I wanted to make a very good point that [reporter David D. Kirkpatrick] put out. Look, it is not about al-Qaeda as the only terrorist organization.
. . . There was a group there that was involved that's linked to al-Qaeda. What we never said -- and I didn't have security look behind the door, that's for other members of Congress. ... Those sources and methods I've never claimed. What I have claimed, and rightfully so, is Ambassador Stevens [who was killed in the attack] and others alerted, well in advance, that they had a security threat.
~ Rep. Darrell Issa, R-California, Chairman of the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform, leading GOP critic of the Obama Administration, Hillary Clinton and Susan Rice





If Times reporter David Kirkpatrick truly found “no evidence that Al Qaeda or other international terrorist groups had any role in the [Benghazi] assault,” this must be because he spent little effort to uncover any.
~ Paul Mirengoff on Powerline Blog

N.Y. Times serves up baloney on Benghazi
Hit-piece 'investigation' parrots discredited talking points

~ Headline on World Net Daily

COME ON...Please, It is more than misleading information on Benghazi...It is Out & Out Lies. Rice still sticks to her story and never removed, only sifted to another Branch of Government to continue her support of Obama and His Muslim Brotherhood membership. I am so Furious, I could spit 44 Cal bullets from my mouth. Obama, Biden, Rice, Clinton, Jarret, Pelosi, Reid and even Numb-Nut Bone Head Boehner should be held for Treason.
~ Ltjg on World Net Daily

There needs to be a spontaneous attack on the NY Times fueled by their insulting lies. Kill em all and burn it to the ground.
~ Captain Crunch on The Blaze



More BS lies from the times, the paper of record for communist bastards worldwide. This lie that the act of war was caused by a video seen by a few people is cover for the vile prog Clinton’s run in 16. The regime was involved in arming terrorists and an AmeriKan ambassador and three other men were murdered and this regimes response is……………… nothing? That alone tells you the Marxist regime in DC preferred those men’s deaths because the criminal acts of the regime dies with those men. BHO and all members of this regime involved in the Benghazi cover up should be in prison for life, vile bastards the lot of em.

~ Republicorp on The Blaze

People! The Democrat’s political machine is running full bore in preparation for the next election. They need to throw several versions of the story out there to see which one gains acceptance by voters…once decided, everyone will stick to it. In the end, Hillarious Clinton will be a hero in all this…
~ StormCrow on The Blaze

The Benghazi attack had nothing to do with that film.
It was a planned attack, because it was the 11th anniversary of 9-11.
The Muslims’ holy lucky number is 11.
That’s also why New York was attacked on the 11th.
~ Believe-Receive on The Blaze

So why a story now about Bengazi when the NY Times could have cared less…SO HILLARY CAN RUN FOR PRESIDENT. This is ALL about creating a narrative so the lying wildabeast can run . The NY Times is only fit to line the bottom of bird cages
~ solomon1 on The Blaze









The New York Times. Huh. A subsidiary of the Liberal and Criminal Left Wing of American Politics.
I don't believe a word they write, and not a word of what they say.
Besides, "What difference at this point does it make?" Words to crucify Hillary "leso" Clinton.

Wow... well the number two man... the man right under the Ambassador (Chris Stevens) that was killed and raped anally by al qaeda says that the ny slimes is lying... all evidence in the official investigation states that al qaeda and associates were the perps so the ny slimes is just lying for hillary clinton... the MURDERESS of Benghazi.

Haven't read thru all the responses so my point that the NY Slimes are paving the road for Hildabeast in 2016 may have already been made by someone as astute as ‘moi’.
~ BluH2o on Free Republic

If hitlery wins in 2016, America goes full tilt communist, and she will make mao Zedong look like a rank amateur in the area of political purges, and will start with obama and his quasi-muslim regime. The democrats have quite a quandary on their hands, either socialism, communism, brutal intolerant theocracy, or a straight up dictatorship. So many choices, so few options.

Matt Drudge Denounces GOP, but Right Wing Not Ready to Join Him


 photo drudge2.jpg






Is Matt Drudge joining the Tea Party?
~ Greta Van Susteren on Fox News

Greta & her buddies only understand the 2-dimensional landscape. Unfortunately or fortunately, Drudge is like a 64-bit program that cannot be understood by a 32-bit operating system.
~ NSD on Breitbart

Last time I checked we are still a 2 Party system that works through a
run-off process of primaries. Which is why we're not France !
Why did Rush Limbaugh Promote Romney ?
Suspect the same reason. No one wants to be France!
~ chitownhustler on Breitbart

The tea party needs to take over the Republican party by primarying every RINO. You cannot do that if you are not a registered Republican.
~ Ronwagn on Breitbart

...These tweets by Drudge are pathetic and laughable. We have people like Drudge, Rove and Coulter to thank for their contributions to the worthlessness of the GOP. When the GOP establishment wants to ram yet another terrible candidate down our throats, they have people like Matt Drudge that they can count on to help push their propaganda and make it happen. And now Drudge has the audacity to criticize the very problem within the GOP that he has helped to foster? No, on the contrary, Drudge is exactly the type of person who belongs within the decaying, useless, establishment section of the GOP, as was made loud and clear with his despicable shilling for Romney in 2012. When the GOP finally dies, which I hope it will, a new, truly conservative and/or libertarian party should be ashamed if they will have Drudge as a member.
~ Country is Dead on Breitbart

Drudge is sure right about the "who are they?" part!
The Tea Party should be called the "Patriot Party" IMO.
They are the ONLY conservative group willing to say what needs being said to promote our Country as founded.
We should seriously consider Sarah IMO.
Republicans are becoming useless as testies on a clergyman
these days. Most are RINOs like McCain, Grahamnisty, Boehner & Rubio. They are useless to our cause.
We also need TERM LIMITS!
Which Republican has authored THAT Bill??????????????????
~ Fred on Fox News Insider

Oh Matt, you are late to the party....again.

Concur with Drudge. Why vote Republican when they have demonstrated that they delight in stabbing us in the back (and the front) over and over again!
They have demonstrated countless times that they don't care one wit about us until they need money or our vote. Once they get that then they do WHATEVER they want!
Send Boehner's kid to be the first to die in the Syrian cesspool. Send Mehgan McCain off to Syria!
You will not get my sons to die for your political chutzpah!
~ Obadiah on Free Republic

The TEA Party needs to form ranks and take over as the Major opposition Party.
~ Dead Corpse on Free Republic

Tweet to Matt: I am registered No Party Affiliation in Florida and will only vote for CONSERVATIVE and Christians who believe in founding Fathers belief system. All others that may have an (R) after their name and are career politicians I won’t vote for them. The lesser of two evils is still evil and I do firmly believe the Dems and GOP E’s are in cahoots with Satan himself and at this point I may not even vote after 45 years these people do not have the best of America at heart.

Yeah, lets fragment and guarantee Marxist rule for our children. The Left NEVER cannibalizes itself over purity. NEVER!
I just love you phony patriots who are too cowardly to actually be Republicans, standing around calling them RINOs and gutless.
The stand should be against the DEMOCRATS and our guys will work themselves out. It's no time to be breaking off into little smug groups of "purists" while the country is taken over!

I really hate to be an optimist but this is kind of a big deal. Drudge is MASSIVELY INFLUENTIAL. I think we just came out of the closet. So to speak.

I'll believe it when Drudge and Beck do a Ron Paul telethon to raise money to audit the Fed.
~ economics31 on The Daily Paul

I've been saying the same thing for over a year now, not that I'm proud that it took me that long to finally wake up. The GOP is the rotting corpse of politics in America. Surely a new Conservative party is close on the horizon.
~ WilliamWallace on The Daily Caller

It’s hard, not to lose faith in America, when both parties are dancing on
the deck of the Titanic, while the rest of us stand at the rail of the ship, staring in horror at the iceberg.
The government has become too big and the corruption widespread and pervasive. It’s time to start again with a New America.

~ cripplecreek on Free Republic




















I think this is the conundrum and gets back to what you were saying in the opening — whether or not churches should decide this. But it is difficult because if we have no laws on this people take it to one extension further. Does it have to be humans?
~ Senator Rand Paul of Kentucky

. . . if we throw up our arms in frustration and surrender the political arena to the left, it will get a whole lot worse. We are headed toward the criminalization of Christianity. Let me explain.
If a family were teaching its children that the KKK is the correct model for society, people would rightly be outraged. If Child Protective Services found out, that family would face the possibility of having its kids taken away for psychological child abuse.
When it comes to same-sex marriage, the militant homosexual movement and its left-wing media allies have, unbelievably, taken the normal view of marriage and equated it with the kind of raw bigotry I just described.
If we stop fighting, in short order you will not be able to teach your children that God intended them to marry someone of the opposite sex.
~ Garry Bauer on Right Wing Watch

When they say you can't be opposed to the redefinition of marriage unless you're a hater or a bigot, then it seems to me that when some other case comes up they're going to establish some constitutional right or find that marriage is unconstitutional in its current form. That to me will put the death knell in it.
. . . There's a lot of areas in our country where people are going to hold firm to what they know is the truth and what they know is best for children and families and for society and there will continue to be a battle . . . just like Roe vs. Wade.
~ Rick Santorum

GOP Has a Sad About Fiscal Cliff Loss

Photobucket

I have to admit that Obama makes Bill Clinton look like an amateur when it comes to politics.
~ comment by MinorityRepublican on Free Republic

The Republican Party is dead. The GOP-e has killed it. I am not drinking their lesser-of-two evils, Dem-lite Kool-Aid anymore.
comment by Buddy on Free Republic

It's always the same, wait, just wait until this or that hits the fan. In the mean time the Republicans keep giving in to the left, and now it's Obama they keep giving in to. When will they hold the line until the left gives in? Just once in my friggen life I would like to see them HOLD! But they never do, and they never will.
They hold the purse, yet they allow Obama to stick his hand in and take what ever he wants because they are afraid of him and the media. Screw the media.
It is time to say no, regardless of what you are called or what lies they tell. Integrity starts with doing the right thing regardless of the lies told about you. The Republican establishment controls the party, and they have no integrity.
So because they cannot stop themselves from dealing with the devil, it's time for us to say no to them. We are beyond the brink, it is now time.

The McConnell Tax Hike will become law of the land. Mitch McConnell can and should take responsibility for it.
. . . The Republican Establishment in Washington, DC should be burned to the ground and salt spread on the remains. Republicans who saw Mitch McConnell and John Boehner destroy the last plank of the Republican Party are going to need to look elsewhere for a savior for their party. Boehner and McConnell have declared they will survive. Their party? They don’t really care.
Conservatives must look elsewhere. I do not advocate a third party. I advocate bring fresh blood into the GOP.
~ Erick Erickson on Red State

As it happened, Boehner's attempt at herding cats failed miserably, the House lost any leverage or credibility in the fiscal cliff negotiations and have been left as nothing more than a rubber-stamp on whatever Obama and the Democrat Senate was prepared to pass.
~ comment by Rich on Red State





Boehner is an Ohio Republican, the writing is on the wall. Boehner looses his job if Obama doesn't like him, so he prostrates himself, and sells the rest of us down the river. Boehner is like all blue state conservatives, just looking for cover anywhere they an find it. Our future is in Obama's control and I don;t see too many Conservatives talking about how to govern blue states, or win big blue cities.
~ comment by Wm on Red State

Look in the mirror: you (and me) are the fools. Boehner and McConnell and nearly the entire GOP Senators (and we'll soon find out probably at least half the GOP House) are not conservatives getting tricked into being progressives. They are progressives tricking you (and me) into thinking they are sometimes conservative. This was an easy call for anybody with a conservative inkling to vote against. All the pretend "negotations" between the President, and Harry Reid, and Biden, and McConnell, and then Boehner wouldn't budge, and then McConnell was driving a hard bargain, then....blah, blah, blah, they're drinking Scotch during these "meetings" plotting what the next "impasse" will be to keep dragging you and me along - it's all a show folks! The GOP leadership and the Obama administration and Democratic party are ONE IN THE SAME. They need each other to keep themselves in power. I for one am done being the GOP's useful idiot. 1988 was the last time we had a conversative leader of our party. 25+ years is too long.

Flashes of Truth from the Right

Photobucket

A lot of us here on these pages do not yet get it. The demographics have changed. They outnumber us now. As Phil Graham, the old Texas Senator, use to say, and I paraphrase, "There are more people in wagon than there are pulling the wagon." And it's not going to change back anytime soon.
~ lasvegaslou in Lucianne

A country where secularism is on the rise, where gay marriage continues its slow ascent, where recreational(!) pot has been approved in a large state, is not a conservative nation.
~ comment by Dio444 on Lucianne

We got our "education", #1. The GOP is a Loser. It's time for a new party. Country-clubbers and Wall-Streeters need not apply. You are Losers.
~ comment by dman on Lucianne

Romney's campaign was based entirely on the premise that the economy is in shambles. But the fact is, the economy has been building; slowly, but building, for at least the last year. And our side chose to dismiss the facts as lies by the bureau of labor and statistics, even though there was no evidence of that.
~ comment by virbots on Lucianne

Demographic charts and graphs do not lie. It is no coincidence that Bush worked much harder than McCain or Romney to connect with Latinos, Bush got a much higher % of their votes, and Bush won two terms as President. Now here we are. Did anyone else notice, the crowd at Romney's concession speech is nearly ALL white people? I mean very close to 100% white. This is what cannot stay unchanged if we want victory in the America of 2016, 2020, 2024.
~ comment by forward on Lucianne

Republicans had everything going for them. A horrible economy. A weak incumbent. Motivated voters. Now it’s time for the GOP to face reality and clean house. They need a new message, and new messengers.
Republicans and Mitt Romney have only themselves to blame for their staggering defeat. It wasn’t Sandy’s fault, Candy Crowley’s fault or Chris Christie’s fault.
There are some glaring reasons why President Obama won re-election. Now GOP leaders have to learn the lessons from this debacle.
The biggest issue the party faces is winning back women. GOP candidates once again lost big among female voters, and that’s a big problem. Just ask defeated U.S. Sen. Scott Brown, who got destroyed by largely false Democratic attacks portraying his voting record as anti-woman.
. . . And many Republicans may not want to hear this, but promising to kick all illegal immigrants out of the country and build fences on the border is not the way to win national elections.
. . . Newt, Donald Trump, Karl Rove, Ron Paul and Rick Santorum all need to step aside. It’s time to put a new face on the GOP.
~ Joe Battenfield on Boston Herald

Folks, running from reality won't help here, even though it will make us feel better. A different candidate would've been tantamount to a different chair on the Titanic. Mitt expressed big Republican ideas in crystal clear fashion-- anybody paying even a little attention got the differences between the two candidates and their respective parties. People listened, and the majority agreed with them. It hurts, but the truth is that conservative ideas lost.
~ comment by Lester2 on Red State

The problem is, Republicans lost the personal freedom argument when Santorum, Akin, Ryan, etc., advocated no abortion exception in the case of rape or incest. I overheard a debate the day after the election -- a 70-ish man was complaining that Obamacare meant the government would tell him what snacks he could put in his vending machines. His adult daughter retorted that forcing her to bear a rapist's child was "a slightly larger inconvenience."
~ comment by amiblu on Red State

Alas, we didnt even beat Obama on the economy, because while we got people to agree with "It's bad out there" (not a hard sell) we failed to rebut the "It's Bush's fault" meme.
~ comment by Freedom's Truth on Red State

For what it's worth, I think a lot of those 3 million Republicans did show up at the polls. They just identify themselves as Independent/Tea Party now.
~ comment by jack m on Red State

What about white voters? If the GOP is the white people’s party, why in the state of Maine only 40 percent of whites voted for Romney; in Vermont, only 33 percent. The same holds true in MA. You can’t explain Romney’s losses in states with large white populations and small numbers of minorities.
~ comment by kabar on Free Republic

Obama went into the first debate thinking (in his mind, knowing) that he was way ahead, could coast to victory, and all he had to do was be "likeable" by not being too "mean" to Romney. And he came out and was trounced in the debate.
Flash forward to the third debate. Romney went into it thinking (in his mind, knowing) that he was way ahead. And yet, even after seeing Obama's performance in similar circumstances, Romney still thought he could coast to victory, and all he had to do was be "likeable" by not being too "mean" to Obama.
~ comment by Conscience of a Conservative on Free Republic

. . . we got Mitt because tea party conservatives, during the primaries, kept splitting their votes among Bachman, Newt and Santorum. Cain imploded on his own. Perry was a fool to even try.
~ comment by Fledermaus on Free Republic

Too many purists who would reject a half-full glass of conservatism lite even if it means getting an overflowing glass of marxist tyranny.
They couldn’t vote for Romney because he was a MORMON. I have never met a Mormon who wasn’t a patriotic American (except hairy reid of course). Yes they have some strange religious ideas but objectively, what religion doesn’t?
Morons.

People ... if we want to win the Senate we need to avoid nominating individuals who fit the negative stereotypes that define the Left’s description of Conservatives. Todd Akin may be a good man and may share the right values but he was an incredibly weak (and not too bright) candidate. We gave this one away!!
~ comment by EagleinGA on Free Republic

I hope that the anti-Romney folks are happy with themselves.
It's obvious what happened here; the evangelicals and "no compromise" folks didn't turn out. Romney got fewer votes than McCain. All of the freepers who threatened not to come out carried through on their threat, and they gave away the Senate right along with it.
Thanks for making sure ObamaCare is here to stay.
