Opinion: Susan Rice Thrown Under Democrat's Bus And Tied Down
It is becoming more and more clear that it was liberal-leaning politicians who threw her under the bus and they are also the ones who are keeping her under the bus.
Opinion: Susan Rice's Meeting With GOP Leaders Made Benghazi Matters Worse
Now that the Obama White House and senior intelligence officials have reportedly admitted that they approved Susan Rice's inaccurate talking points about the Benghazi terrorist attack being the reaction to a protest about a film rather than a terrorist attack, the investigation must go on.
Opinion: If Obama Is Impeached Over Benghazi Scandal
Mounting questions are being asked about Benghazi, which could lead to the Oval Office. If it is found that President Barack Obama lied about not knowing that the attack was a terrorist attack the nation could very likely repeat the events of Nixon's resignation.
Opinion: Why Do The Liberals Keep Complaining?
Liberals and their ilk obviously won the executive branch of the United States government for another four years with the reelection of President Barack Obama, but they still pick fights as much as they did before the election – if not more.
Opinion: Why Benghazi Matters
As the politicians on the "left" and other persons on the political "left" insist that the election is over and that is why the rest of Americans should move on and drop the Benghazi, Libya controversy, those "leftists" need to understand exactly why the truth about the Benghazi terrorist attack needs to come out.
Opinion: Republicans Focus On Conspiracy Theories Instead Of Solutions For America
Revelations surrounding David Petraeus' affair have prompted the tin foil hat crowd on the right to find all sorts of conspiracies about why the news that CIA Director David Petraeus was having an affair with his biographer was released after the election.
Opinion: Now That Paula Broadwell And Jill Kelley's 15 Minutes Are About Up
Paula Broadwell and Jill Kelley need to be removed from the top of the nation's top newspaper publications and demoted to the likes of the National Enquirer.
Opinion: Obama's Press Conference Extremely Disturbing
Obama's press conference confirmed the fear that many Americans have. It's the fear that Americans are apparently in for more of the same in terms of having a non-compromising and less-than-totally-transparent politician in the Oval Office.
Opinion: Petraeus Must Testify On Libya
Petraeus must either volunteer to speak as a civilian or Congress must subpoena the former CIA Director to speak to complete the Benghazi puzzle.
Opinion: Quit Gloating And Whining
We had an election and absolutely nothing that matters has changed. Nothing!
Opinion: Ten Reasons Mitt Romney Lost The Election
Today, Republicans feel a combination of confusion, disbelief, and anger as to how a slim majority of Americans can possibly want four more years of the Obama administration in the White House. To many, it seems inconceivable that people want to take a chance on more of the same.
Opinion: A Few Brave Newspapers Endorse Romney Fighting Tide Of Liberal Press
The newspapers that are not endorsing President Barack Obama are extremely brave. They are to be positively recognized for their courage to stand up against the onslaught of the liberal media which refuses to speak in the best interest of the country as the presidential election nears.
Opinion: Single-Issue Voting Is Wrong In These Multi-Issue Times
Consider the economy, the job market, the recent horrendous occurrences in the Middle East before voting for a person because of his race, his social-issue promises, or any other rather selfish reasons.
Opinion: Selectively Presidential: Obama Chooses To Be Presidential When It's Convenient
When the storm and its headlines have passed, however, the questions about the Benghazi tragedy should continue full force as November 6 continues to near. During the much-needed questioning and impending investigation, it would be grand if President Obama would remain presidential throughout the process.
Opinion: Benghazi-Gate: Obama's Unconscionable Actions
By now it's obvious that Obama and his administration did not handle the situation correctly. Rather than taking a presidential stance during the horrendous incident, Obama kept his mind and actions on his 2012 reelection campaign and tried to alter the obvious reasons for the deadly attack.
Opinion: No News For Obama
President Obama doesn't want to have to answer the "difficult" questions on the economy, jobs, the turmoil related to America in the Middle East, and more so he avoids solid news programs to go on popular fluff shows to get softball questions.
Opinion: With Economics Intertwined With Foreign Affairs Romney Will Win The Final Presidential Debate
Romney's ideas – if presented fresh and enthusiastically hopeful for America's future – can be the final bump he needs to win this election.
Opinion: Romney Must Answer Tough Questions On His Questionable Foreign Practices In Debate Tonight
It is unprecedented for a presidential candidate to have as many conflicts when it comes to foreign business ties as Mitt Romney.
Opinion: Democrats Pick Another Losing Issue Focusing On Binders
It's great that Obama made the binders the headlines since last Tuesday night's debate because the truth about Mitt Romney's record on hiring women and the truth about Obama's alleged war on women is finally coming out – and helping Romney in the polls.
