In Hillary Rodham Clinton’s 3 a.m. television ad in the 2008 primary campaign, we heard the sound of a ringing phone and saw sleeping children. In ominous tones, a narrator warned that “something is happening in the world” and asked, “Who do you want answering the phone?”
Well, it’s 2012, and — the phone is still ringing. Please, somebody answer the damn thing!
The story of the terror attack in Benghazi is that neither Clinton nor the president who made her secretary of state responded to the real emergency when it came. The biggest foreign-policy crisis of the last four years is revealing an astonishing lack of competence and character at the center of the Obama administration.
That’s not to say the Democratic duo did nothing in response to the worst terror attack on American civilians since 9/11. After eulogizing our dead ambassador and three others, Obama and Clinton got to work spinning a web of deceit that would make Richard Nixon blush.
They sent out a wave of aides to mislead and torture the truth. Even now, nearly three weeks later, they have yet to come clean.
In the process, they are demonstrating how to turn a disaster into a scandal.

Valerie Jarrett...a “WhiteHut advisor” gets more security than an American Ambassador in. Stronghold of the Muslim Brotherhood.
What gives?...

This is not an isolated example. When it comes to terrorism, this White House has a bad habit of starting with a lie.
In 2009, after the underwear bomber’s Christmas Day plot was stopped, Obama called him an “isolated extremist.” That wasn’t true — he was sent on the mission by an al Qaeda affiliate, a fact interrogators knew before Obama spoke.
In May 2010, when a Pakistani national tried to set off a car bomb in Times Square, Homeland Security chief Janet Napolitano claimed it was a “one-off,” a tale that police knew was false.
How could a telephone be answered if the chair next to it is empty?
just a bump in the road.
My Home Owners Association does not allow political signs in your yard. An Empty Chair sits prominently in my front yard. A couple of people have complained but the president of the HOA told them it is legal. A tour around my neighborhood yesterday revealed six more empty chairs!!!
Gonna put one in my yard today.
The lack of integrity about something so fundamental as a terror attack suggests there is no line this White House will not cross to protect Obama.
The choice to mislead the public dishonors the sacrifice of Stevens and those who died with him. But it does something else, too. It shows a willingness to put Obama’s reputation and re-election ahead of America’s national security
Damn, I hate this SOB...
The only thing worse than having the phone go unanswered in the White House, is having Hillary answer it.
“How could a telephone be answered if the chair next to it is empty?”
It doesn’t matter because they are props, like the prezbo is a poser, to begin with.
You got that right !
hillary’s answering service says, “Hello you have reached Hilary Clingon..you have the right to debate with any administration except this one.
Bound to become a classic. Thanks.
Hello you have reached Hilary Clingon..you have the right to remain silent...we don't need to hear no steeeenkin' bad news........
The rape and murder of an ambassador and the killing of three other Americans wasn’t really that important. You can rest assured that when a real crisis pops up, President Obama will answer the phone at 3 a.m. before it even rings. He’s that amazing. The media told me so.
Well sh**, that's because neither Clinton nor the president were in the line of fire personally. Obama was likely golfing or collecting money... not sure where Hillary was....
“Hello, this is the Presidents’ office. I’m on vacation or campaigning at the moment so please leave a message.”
..
“For Arabic press one”
“For Chinese press two”
“For Ebonics press three”
“For English, please hold, your call is, uh, important, yeah, to me....”
The seat of power....snort, snort
Just a little insider joke
