  3. Today's Buzz: Obama promotes Rice: Good choice?

    President Obama has named U.N. Ambassador Susan Rice to be his national security adviser. Rice has been a lightning rod for criticism since she appeared on national TV after the deadly attack on the U.S. diplomatic mission in Benghazi and wrongly described it as stemming from a spontaneous demonstration instead of a terrorist assault. Rice’s defenders say she was just following talking points that had been drawn up by the CIA and State Department. Even so, the controversy probably cost her a chance to be nominated secretary of state, a position that requires Senate confirmation. National security adviser does not require Senate confirmation.  Should Obama be faulted for picking a trusted confidante like Rice as his national security adviser? Should he have been more deferential to criticism from Republicans about Rice’s role in the Benghazi controversy? Will his pick further poison relations between the White House and congressional Republicans? Talk about it!

  5. The old order is dying

    Victor Davis Hanson
    Ideas of the 1960s have now grown reactionary in our world that is vastly different from a half-century ago. Take well-meaning subsidies for those over age 62. Why are there still senior discounts, vast expansions in Social Security and Medicare, and...

  7. Answer the question, Mr. President

    I love to hear Democrats still blame George W. Bush for all their ills. Jay Carney said last week that Benghazi was a long time ago — it happened 8 months ago. But President Bush is still brought up, after 54 months of not being in office, as a ...

  11. Obama's scandal-filled term

    While Joe Biden may benefit from the less than diplomatic handling of the Benghazi tragedy by Hillary Clinton, possibly making him the front runner for the Democratic nominee for president in 2016 ("Could Biden benefit from Clinton's handling of Benghazi?" May 14), the main winner is the Republican Party. The Benghazi gaffe by all concerned, including President Barack Obama, Ms. Clinton and Susan Rice, has scandalized the American public.

  13. Obama's White House Creates Credibility Crisis

    The Hartford Courant
    Let the facts speak for themselves. They are damning enough. Let Gregory Hicks, the honorable, apolitical second-in-command that night in Libya, movingly and grippingly demolish the president's Benghazi mantra that "every piece of information that we got,...

  15. DOCUMENTS: White House releases trove of Benghazi emails

    WASHINGTON (AP) — Then CIA-Director David Petraeus objected to the final talking points the Obama administration used after the deadly assault on a U.S. diplomatic post in Benghazi, Libya, because he wanted to see more details revealed to the public, according to emails released Wednesday by the White House.

    As a journalist, I'm a big believer in free speech, but also in the idea that bigotry and wrongdoing are fair game for scrutiny.

  21. Obama's second-term blues

  23. Benghazi, IRS: Son of Watergate?

    Cal Thomas
    In his defense of President Obama, Press Secretary Jay Carney is beginning to sound a lot like Ronald Zeigler, Richard Nixon's spokesman. Carney only has to use the word "inoperative," as Ziegler did when incriminating evidence surfaced that proved his...
