BALTIMORE, Maryland May 2, 2014 - The awful truth of Benghazi is now bubbling haphazardly to the surface in Washington. So many of the 'inside the beltway' crowd are repulsed by the very idea that something they desperately want to wash out of sight as something dreamed up by rhe GOP and carried by Fox is now out of the bag, running around free in D.C. Two absolutely certain signs that Benghazi now has the dreaded "traction" a scandal needs to catapult back onto the front page have been officially observed.
First: The far left political machine known as "Media Matters," funded, heavily, by Leftwing Operator George Soros and run by Leftwing Operative David Brock, is really really screaming loud about it. When I googled Benghazi this morning, it came up first, even above regular news sites and Wikipedia, with its quite old (rancid?) charge that Fox devoted more time covering Benghazi than it did covering something else. As a Democrat, might I simply say that I thought Benghazi stunk right out of the box. And since other mainstream media sources failed to follow the stench; i.e., cover it (except for Ms. Atkinson when she was with CBS, and a few other notable exceptions), we would have been totally lost were it not for Fox. Thank God for Catherine Herridge at Fox, who should win the Pulitzer Prize if it was fairly awarded, but won't because it is not. When Media Matters Screams this loud, the far left has been badly stung. (Food for thought: just how much did Mr. Soros drop to get the MM piece to come up first when Benghazi is googled? Beaucoup Bucks, I bet, but he won't miss it.)
Second: The Washington Post is reluctantly coming on board. 'Conservative' Post Columnist Jennifer Rubin wrote an outstanding piece that somehow is just coming to my attention even though she posted it on April 29. This is the web address for her piece: http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/right-turn/wp/2014/04/29/benghazi-scandal-tied-to-white-house/
In her column, called "Right Turn," Rubin provides history and perspective on the newly released emails, and also poses a series of questions she wants investigators to pose to White House staffers as they are questioned, either by a select committee of Congress or one of the existing committees. Now I am sure Obama will flip his wig before he allows such a Q & A to take place, but it is an interesting thought.
