Mother Of Benghazi Victim Gets Emotional: 'I Blame Hillary'
A MUST WATCH
Take note of Hillary's excuse starting at 2:10.
A mother's heart bleeds. This is not about politics. CNN's Jake Tapper interviews Pat Smith, whose son Sean Smith, a State Department information officer, was one of four Americans killed in the attack on Benghazi.
'I'm doing terribly. I cry every night. I don't sleep at night. I want answers and no one at the White House will talk to me. I got one call from a clerk. That's it.'

White House struggles to respond to new Benghazi revelations
The White House on Wednesday stood by its story that the Obama administration remained unsure exactly who was responsible for the attack on the U.S. diplomatic post in Benghazi nearly five days after it occurred even though new revelations show Ansar al-Sharia’s direct involvement. Gregory Hicks, the deputy chief of mission testified that a Libyan official eventually called him that night to inform him Mr. Stevens had died and that his body was at a hospital run by Ansar al-Sharia.
Mr. Hicks said it was the saddest phone call of his life.
Terrorists set fire to the diplomatic compound to force Mr. Stevens and his staff out of a safe house inside. It was a petroleum fire, which produces deadly cyanide gas.

ABC NEWS ON TODAY'S HEARING
BENGHAZI WHISTLEBLOWERS TESTIFY
Witnesses Finally Allowed To Speak
Issa said he expects this week to find someone from Clinton's circle - if not the former secretary of state herself - at the heart of the cover-up.
"If Hillary Clinton is not responsible for the before, during and after mistakes, it's somebody close. There are plenty of people close to the former secretary who knew, and apparently were part of the problem."
Those close to Clinton who may have engaged in "deliberately, premeditated lying to the American people," Issa said, could include Under Secretary Patrick Kennedy or Beth Jones.
Hicks said one day after Susan Rice's media blitz, he called Beth Jones to ask about the source for the ambassador's statements; the tone of her answer indicated that "I perhaps asked a question that I should not have asked."

CBS News Upset by Correspondent's Thorough Benghazi Reporting
MEDIA BIAS 101
The biggest Benghazi-related story that took place outside of the House Oversight Committee's hearing room today is this item in Politico, regarding CBS News correspondent Sharyl Attkisson. She's the reporter who famously drew White House officials' profane ire over her unapologetic pursuit of the Fast & Furious scandal story; now she's apparently facing searing criticism from another source: Her own bosses. Why? Because she's been covering the Benghazi story too aggressively.

“I think the dam is about to break on Benghazi. We’re going to find a system failure before, during, and after the attacks. “We’re going to find political manipulation seven weeks before an election. We’re going to find people asleep at the switch when it comes to the State Department, including Hillary Clinton.
“The bond that has been broken between those who serve us in harms way and the government they serve is huge — and to me every bit as damaging as Watergate.”

Background on why the White House doesn't like Sharyl Attkisson.
What's more, CBS News investigative journalist Sharyl Attkisson -- who's been covering the scandal from the beginning -- says in an interview on the Laura Ingraham Show today that the White House and Justice Department have taken to screaming at her for reporting on the story. You can listen to the full interview below, but here are the key excerpts from Attkisson:

BACKGROUND INFO IS HERE
http://www.weeklystandard.com/blogs/cbs-news-reporter-says-white-house-screamed-swore-her-over-fast-and-furious_595011.html
The Washington Post's Paul Farhi has written a glowing profile of Sharyl Attkisson, the Emmy award-winning CBS correspondent who has been the mainstream media's most persistent investigator of the events surrounding last year's attack in Benghazi, Libya.
Farhi's piece places Attkisson in a David-vs.-Goliath narrative, wherein the Obama administration is Goliath: "Attkisson, who holds a third-degree black belt in taekwondo, takes a fighting stance when she feels she’s being stonewalled. Which is exactly what she thinks the White House has done to her on Benghazi," Farhi writes.
The second Goliath is CBS News, which has grown increasingly frustrated with Attkisson's Benghazi campaign. CBS News executives see Attkisson wading dangerously close to advocacy on the issue, network sources have told POLITICO. Attkisson can't get some of her stories on the air, and is thus left feeling marginalized and underutilized. That, in part, is why Attkisson is in talks to leave CBS ahead of contract, as POLITICO reported in April.

"System failure", "people asleep at the switch" Yes. They definitely apply to 9-11-01. How many died and were injured due to the abject failure of Bush and the Republican administration to protect the homeland, Mr. Graham. Political manipulation of Iraq's involvement with WMD is an excellent description.

[My Comment: No chance. Benghazi is an outrage but it will not hurt Obama or Hillary because they are protected by big media who will NOT allow this story to gain traction. Today was the whole enchilada. Expect this story to disappear then slowly die and be buried right alongside Fast & Furious.]

The interview with the grieving mother was interesting. She actually expects people to do their jobs, not do politics-driven CYA. No wonder the WH doesn't want to talk to her.

Hillary vs. Ted Cruz in 2016
Who wins?
Dr. P,
Maybe as soon as the Sheeple realize they're being herded to the edge of destruction with no escape?
No way!!! Sheeple are incapable such things as revolution, even if it's the only way to prevent their own demise. They'll go where they're pushed and dive over the edge like lemmings.
Who wins?

Seriously, who knows? Probably Hillary. The implementation of Obamacare will probably figure into it, though, so odds favor Republicans in general, if not Cruz. Hell, Obamacare is going to be such a fiasco that lots of Democrats might vote Republican next time! If we're lucky, it will be so bad -- massive premium hikes, sorry coverage, exemptions for VIP's, etc. -- that it will be a rallying point for all political stripes, but I won't hold my breath.
In my opinion, no one is taking the fall. This will be forgotten in a week. But I get your point.

State Department will not review Clinton ethics pledge breaches
http://www.reuters.com/article/2015/05/07/us-usa-election-clinton-idUSKB...
(Reuters) - The U.S. State Department will not review the breaches of the 2008 ethics agreement Hillary Clinton signed in order to become secretary of state after her family's charities admitted in March that they had not complied, a spokesman said on Thursday.
Clinton, now the Democratic front-runner in the 2016 presidential election, had promised the federal government that the Clinton Foundation and its associated charities would name all donors annually while she was the nation's top diplomat...
...Rathke, the State Department spokesman, said the department was not aware of donations having an undue influence on U.S. foreign policy. When reporters asked how the department could know this without reviewing the belated disclosures, he declined to comment further.
