Benghazi hearing give GOP another chance to target Hillary
Jules WitcoverWASHINGTON -- If former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton hoped she could segue quietly into private life as she pondered a presidential bid in 2016, that fantasy has been abruptly harpooned in the resurrection of the political squabble over the...Tags: Barack Obama, Andrew Cuomo, The Washington Post, Joe Biden, U.S. House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform

Obama's Really Bad Week Likely To Last Much Longer
The Hartford CourantA president, any president, is entering a trough when friends or detractors drag out creepy John Dean to offer an opinion on the scale of a scandal. The obstructor of justice from the Watergate scandal has been on display lately as a trifecta of...Tags: Political Fundraising, Internal Revenue Service, Unrest, Conflicts and War, Central Intelligence Agency, Elections

That's the Middle East -- and the West, too
Paul GreenbergThe bloody war-by-proxy continues in Syria. It pits the embattled, increasingly desperate but still determined and far from defeated dictatorship of Bashar al-Assad against a disorganized amalgam of rebels, aka the Free Syrian Army. Each has its own array...Tags: Defense Equipment, Manufacturing and Engineering, Iran, Taiwan, Unrest, Conflicts and War

Bad faith and Benghazi
Jonah Goldberg"Was it because of a protest or was it because of guys out for a walk one night and decided they'd go kill some Americans? What difference -- at this point, what difference does it make?" That was how then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton famously...Tags: Barack Obama, Christopher Stevens, U.S. Department of Defense, Unrest, Conflicts and War, Leon Panetta

Welcome to the 'Stop Hillary Clinton' hearing
"Mirror, mirror, on the wall. Who's the most powerful woman of them all?" No doubt about it. Not Queen Elizabeth, Angela Merkel or Oprah Winfrey. The most powerful woman on the planet is former first lady, former senator from New York, former...

Too juvenile to govern
WASHINGTON — With budgetary tantrums in the Senate and investigative play-acting in the House, the Republican Party is proving once again that it simply cannot be taken seriously. This is a shame. I don't share the GOP's philosophy, but I do...Tags: Ted Cruz, Barack Obama, Darrell E Issa, Parties and Movements, Mike Lee

5/11
It is time for Americans to stand up to corruption in Washington. Stand up to the NRA, the corporations and far-right extremists who want to take over the country and the government with its narrow-minded, ignorant ideology. The current conversation...

Whistle-blower's yarn fails to tie Benghazi lapses to politics
WASHINGTON -- They summoned a whistle-blower to Capitol Hill, but instead they got a virtuoso storyteller. Gregory Hicks, the No. 2 U.S. diplomat in Libya the night Ambassador Chris Stevens and three other Americans were killed, was to be the star...

What was that he said?
Paul GreenbergJust what is the country supposed to make of our president's rambling stream-of-consciousness billed as a Major Policy Address at the National Defense University last week? To try to summarize: The war on terror, a term this president avoids, is now...Tags: John Quincy Adams, Barack Obama, U.S. Congress, Military Justice, Unrest, Conflicts and War

When president checks out, abuses mount
May has been a rough month for President Barack Obama: more Benghazi developments, plus the breaking IRS and journo-bugging scandals. Taken separately, none of these episodes is fatal. They do not reach Watergate levels. Given that previously classified...

Hoping for change in Syria
Victor Davis HansonRemember when President Obama used to warn Syria's Bashar al-Assad to stop his mass killing and step down?

Lives lost mean 'Benghazi' should be more than a political buzzword
Mention the word "Benghazi" to Republicans, and chances are, they'll become eager, animated, even predatory, seeking weakness in President Barack Obama. But say "Benghazi" to Democrats and they'll flinch. Some will step back as if you're carrying a...Tags: U.S. Congress, Lawyers, Jay Carney, Parties and Movements, Religion and Belief
