Just Shut Up

In essence, "Shut up!" is Nancy Pelosi's position regarding the recently-revealed Benghazi emails:
House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi said the emails were a distraction from real issues.

“Diversion, subterfuge, Benghazi, Benghazi, Benghazi,” Pelosi said, according to CBS News. “Why aren’t we talking about something else?”
At bit more from the first link in this blog post (CBS News):
The Obama administration initially described the attack as a response to the video that had sparked protests at the U.S. Embassy in Cairo and elsewhere. Susan Rice, then the U.N. ambassador, went on Sunday television talk shows and described it as such. Those comments have stirred up political opposition ever since, as military and other officials have said it was clear it was a terror attack unrelated to the video.
Pelosi likely wants the following hushed up, too:


Information about Tommy Vietor HERE.

Let us recall that the Benghazi attack happened on September 11, 2012 — just a few short months before the General Election in November.

Charles Krauthammer's take on the recently-revealed Benghazi emails (hat tip to MFS-The Other News):

  1. Well said AOW, very well said. These people Nancy Pelosi. Susan Rice, Obama, and Hillary Clinto are more afraid of what the Mizzies would say about our sensitivity then protecting our Troops. Do you think for one minute that those terrorist would NOT cut the head of of our soldiers if they felt like doing it?

    The "Progressive" hypocrisy is alarming. And these Liberal Jerkoff's, and "The Low Information Voters" are more interested in making Jokes like little children, like .Tina Fey did to the Sarah Palin than any amount of facts or truth ever will, to wit: in the "I can see Russia from my house" remark.

    Funny they think more of that then the Lies from Barack Obama and his den of Liberal Demons...

  2. Yep. One of the biggest flags here is the lack of experience of the Obama team, represented in part by that "dude" Vietor.

  3. Shit happens. but not in the minds of liberals, they think that they are perfect and that the ONLY death of an American that was important was the ones who were killed while Bush was president, Well I have THREE words for them. Benghazi!! Benghazi!! And Benghazi !!
    Isn’t it funny how the liberals keeps using those words "Witch Hunt" when they speak about Benghazi. And no, the Benghazi "Witch Hunt" won't be dropped, until people like Susan Rice, and Hillary Clinton are be held responsible and prosecuted. End of story.

    1. Why "PROSECUTED?" We'd be better off seeing them exposed for what they, throughly discredited, and forced to withdraw from public view.

      Vengeance belongs to GOD. People obsessed with spite, malice and demands for retribution will never get anywhere ANYONE needs to go. believe me.

      It should be about TRUTH and JUSTICE -- never VENGEANCE.

      To equate vengeance with justice puts us in league with the barbarians.

  4. Obabber blamed it on terrorism in in the Rose Garden, and then two weeks later in front of the United Nations he said that a crude and disgusting VIDEO was the cause. And that it was NOT a planned attack. He blamed the video more than once, even though he already knew that wasn't the cause, (another LIE) that it was an idea dreamed up in the White House. The last thing he was going to do is blame al Qaeda, especially just after he claimed that they were “on the run” .
    And even the American Ambassador in Cairo actually apologized for the video.

    Case Closed! Any other Lib have any other BS story to claim?

  7. Pelosi is despicable, as is everyone else in this country that somehow think that political party is more important than the well being of our nation and its future generations. Given her “bar bill” aboard Air Force Three, I suspect Pelosi is a drunken sot ... not at all sure why she should even be in congress, let alone serve as speaker. If treason were still a punishable offense, it would be very least of her corruption.

    1. Yes, sir, but IF parties stood for PRINCIPLES instead of caving in to EXPEDIENT, "FEEL GOOD" non-solutions that never solve anything, but only create greater problems down the road, IF that were the case, I'd think supporting one's party should be of paramount importance.

      Unfortunately, BOTH parties seem so corrupt we have no GOOD choices before us.

      I think we'd do better to investigate this corruption, find out why it exists, who is ultimately responsible for it, why it's so entrenched, and how we as individuals might break its power. -- A hard job, of course.

  8. You know what's ironic about this? The fact that every last one of these chowderheads who are trying SO HARD to find racism in everything we say and do are,by design, the most racist of all. And that's a play right out of the liberals' handbook.
    I despise Obama and everything he stands for, but it has NOTHING to do with the fact that he’s black, just like I despise Pelosi and everything she stands for, and it has NOTHING to do with the fact that she’s white.

  9. Marxian-Fabian-Progressive-Liberal-DemonRats perpetually indulge in STONEWALLING while DEFAMING and SCOFFING at their opponents.

    Socialists play games with the truth all the time. They use carefully-selected "facts" as weapons to attack their opponents. The Left is ALWAYS on the attack no matter what.

    The only way "WE" could ever hope to win against their ruthless craft and guile would be to drop the BOILERPLATE anto-liberal rhetoric, and do the very hard work of revealing the WHOLE TRUTH with ample documentation to back it up.

    Instead, we make the mistake of playing THEIR game by using selected "facts" of our own, so political discourse becomes little more than a shouting match between two "teams."

    The TRUTH is not well served by either side, and so we continue o suffer as we degenerate.

    1. Okay, FT, just what are we investigating?
      1. The lack of military response?
      The casualties occurred before any response could be mounted and sending in a response team would have accomplished nothing and possibly run into an ambush with more loss of life.
      So acting on advice Obama took the prudent course and did not put additional personnel at risk.
      Is this what you are going to investigate? John Bolton and the Teabags are about the only ones foolish enough to recommend an armed response.

      2. Identification of the perpetrators.
      There were outbreaks all over the Mideast largely ginned up as outrage over the "film". Was there any reason not to believe hat about Libya early on?
      Was the president told about what operation the CIA was running and did hey want the matter known initially? Do you really think the CIA is going to open up to a toad like Darrell Issa?

      Just what's being investigated?
      Is there a national security issue? Issa has already compromised several assets by not redacting the documents he released the other day. You want more from this punk car thief or do you just want to talk trash about the dreaded leftists?

      Here's how the percentage was determined: Of the 5.45 million people who signed up through the federal exchange, 5.18 million (or 95%) applied for financial assistance in their insurance plans. In doing so, they were required to answer a question about whether they already had health insurance. Only about 695,000 people (13%) indicated they did have coverage.

I'm to the point that, if Obama comes on the TV screen to speak, I turn the channel. Obama is not entertaining, and he's certainly not honest..

  30. Duck typed in: what are we investigating?

    If the Obama administration did not comply with the subpoena.

    Suppressing subpoenaed evidence is a crime. Remember the Watergate Hearings?

    Another matter that should be resolved: Did the Obama administration lie about the cause of the attack on Benghazi?

    From what has been revealed, blaming a silly YouTube "film" was not the cause. Hence, the administration blatantly lied to the American people.

    Would the "film maker" even have been jailed were it not for that casting of blame?

    There may be other things that should be investigated. My comment is not comprehensive.

  31. Ducky has the typical progressive mentality, and thinks along the same line as Obabble does. It's all about himself and nothing else. And doesn't care who gets hurt in the process.
    How can anyone with even the smallest bit of seance not see that Obabble lied about Benghazi. The only question is why HE and the rest of the lefties are not outraged. Why are you not outraged at being lied to?

    But WE know the Democrats -- ever the Defenders of the Indefensible -- will stand up, circle their wagons and cheer for The Butcherette of Benghazi while raising their rifles to pick off as many of their Republican tormentors as possible.

    Democrats and other leftist types will whine, beg, plead, shriek and roar for "cooperation," "bipartisanship," "fairness," "equality" and demand their colleagues "move on" and focus on the "real" issues plaguing the nation instead of indulging in "partisan bickering."

  43. Hillary and Benghazi:

    On September 13, 2012, — one and a half days before Obama aide Ben Rhodes sent an email advising UN Ambassador Susan Rice to blame the Benghazi attacks on a protest over an anti-Muslim Internet video — Secretary of State Hillary Clinton used the identical language embedded in a statement about the attacks.

    The congruence of the two word-for-word statements suggests, at the very least, a close coordination between and White House and Hillary Clinton to deceive the American people about the true nature of the attack in Benghazi. And it may also be evidence that Hillary Clinton engineered that decision immediately following the attacks. Was the cover-up Hillary’s idea? The emails beg the question. Now Congress must investigate and decide what the answer is.

    4. After he was warned not to put troops in Beirut, Reagan decided to put them there anyway. Unarmed. The result; 241 killed. Was this investigated? Was Reagan impeached? Nnnnope.

      You got nothing with Benghazi except a bunch of pea brained politicians who are politicizing this tragedy and now even fund raising off the deaths of Americans.

      Delete
    5. The Reagan comparison is strained:

      ...[T]here are vast differences between the two incidences which resulted in the murders of Americans by jihadists. In Benghazi, warnings were made to people in Washington to reinforce security personnel. In Beirut, there were already hundreds of troops, but they weren’t deployed properly with sufficient security measures employed to protect the facility. Although some of that was the fault of Washington, and ultimately the president, the culpability was also shared by commanders on the ground who didn’t foresee a truck bomb attack, although that method of attack had been employed in the recent past.

      Mayers claims that Hillary Clinton took responsibility for Benghazi, and something about the “dismissal of four employees”. If I remember correctly those four employees were just moved to other jobs, and Hillary Clinton told us that the deaths of those Americans at Benghazi don’t matter.

      The Reagan Administration were forthcoming with information to Congress in regards to Beirut, the Obama Administration has not – they let it out in drips and drabs to drag out the investigation, ala Bill Clinton so that America tires of hearing about it. All of the surviving victims of Beirut were allowed to have their say abut the investigation. There are 30 surviving victims of the Benghazi whose names we don’t even know yet....
