The Benghazi Coverup: Are Reporters Embarrassed?
Powerline ^ | October 30, 2012 | John Hinderaker

Posted on 10/30/2012 11:53:36 AM PDT by NCjim

The media formerly known as mainstream have largely failed to cover the Benghazi scandal. For the most part, they haven’t covered the most explosive aspects of the scandal–those most threatening to Obama’s re-election hopes–at all. If they had any pride, this devastating Michael Ramirez cartoon would shame them:

Journalists are not embarrassed. They are liberals. Liberals have no principles and feel no shame.

Problem: They have no shame.

They have convinced themselves that the demand for coverage is just rightwing propaganda. The watchdogs are off duty.

Let’s face it, they will never criticize The First Black President.

Can you imagine any of these reporters ganging up on a black guy for any reason?

It’s that simple.

I will reiterate what has been said in this forum countless times before when it comes to any incident that would reflect poorly on the ‘chosen one’. The liberal MSM won't go there ... ever.
No matter how egregious.

RATS (or commies or Marxists) have ONE overriding principle: PURSUIT OF SOCIAL JUSTICE.

That means redistribution, destruction of the free enterprise system, eradication of individulaism, and destruction of traditonal modes of value and morality. They only feel shame at leftist gatherings if they have not skewered America that day.

Sure!

If he or she is conservative, they become Oreo’s, White inside, and that’s all that counts.

Fair Game for liberal Journolistas!

Nope. They’re petrified. The Benghazi story is going to lead to the Middle East story which will lead to the Obama story and how him and his buddies have this big plan to profit off of rebuilding the Middle East. Then, people are going to get angry and demand a Crimes Against Humanity tribunal. The question for the press at the tribunal will be, “How long after you realized these crimes were happening until you actually started running front page stories on it?” That difference in time will decide whether the journalists AIDING AND ABETTING CRIMES AGAINST HUMANITY get the noose or just jail time.

Leftists have two enduring characteristics—they are utter hypocrites and thoroughly shameless. Were this not the case, they couldn’t BE leftists.

Needs to be an investigation of the owners and management of these news outlets. I think it would be found that there is massive bribery, payoffs, and blackmail. It is either that or, these useless people really believe that they are answering a higher calling by protecting Obama.

If the President is not willing to defend U.S. consulates, what is he willing to defend? Would a terrorist attack on U.S. soil be met with force?

Amateurs get knocked out of serious matters very quickly. And there is no one more amateurs than Cain. He never got elected to anything and he is running for the presidency? Come on.

Embarrassment and shame are concepts that died in the 1960s.

A U.S. consulate is U.S. soil.

So, you have your answer.

They can barely "force" Hassan to shave for his trial.
