Benghazi: what did Obama know…
…and when did he know it? And what did he do (or not do) about it? Or shall we play battleship snark instead?

Growing. But I’m pretty sure the vast majority of people neither know nor care at this point. The media’s inattention is just as powerful—perhaps even more so—than its attention.

In the second debate Obama ordered somebody—Crowley, Romney, all of us?—to “get the transcript” of his Rose Garden speech. So maybe Romney should oblige, and say something like this: Mr President, last week during our debate you told the American … Continue reading →
Obama’s “optimal” remark…
…was most definitely not optimal. And yet that sort of gaffe isn’t the sort of thing that especially interests me (your mileage may differ). Everyone already ought to be aware that he’s got a cold attitude, and that he’s made … Continue reading →
Follow up: was there collusion between Obama and Crowley?
I admit at the outset I don’t know the answer. But I wonder why no one in the MSM is asking the questions. I take that back; I don’t wonder. I don’t think they want to know. But if I … Continue reading →
Romney does stand-up
And very very well, too: And let me just say, at the risk of being thought shallow, that nobody can do white tie like Romney can do white tie. As he acknowledged: “It’s nice to finally relax and wear what … Continue reading →
At the risk…

Candy Crowley’s Big Lie of a “fact-check”
[NOTE: I couldn’t post last night during the debate because I was driving home from New York City and listening to it on the radio. So I’m a bit late to the non-party.] First, the debate: seemingly a draw. But … Continue reading →
Hillary says the buck stops with her
Hillary Clinton throws herself under the bus, taking full responsibility for the Benghazi security lapses—except that she blames some underling. Strange. My guess is that this is an attempt to secure a win for Obama while making herself look like … Continue reading →
Obama says no more Mr. Debate Nice Guy
Obama’s post-first-debate assessment was that he was just too darn nice. So in their pep talks for the second debate, his spokespeople offer us a different prospect: the Obama team promises more aggressive president in second debate.” I wonder what … Continue reading →
The motive
Commenter “effess” asks: Is it possible that the Obama-Biden campaign wanted Biden to behave this way during the debate? If so, why? Was Biden trying to win the clown vote? My answer is: sort of. I believe the campaign wanted … Continue reading →
