It is nothing less than stunning to read Thursday’s MDJ and find a total omission of even a reference to the Benghazi scandal/outrage. Here is the President of the United States and his top aides going out and stating, in public outright lies about the sorry, embarrassing and totally preventable events in Libya that resulted in four American deaths. A concatenation of lies spun solely for the purpose of propagating another great falsehood: that the elimination of Bin Laden has obliterated Al Qaeda, which it most certainly has not.
This story is, or certainly should be, bigger than Watergate, in that an American ambassador and three staff were killed grotesquely and needlessly in an administration’s sorry attempts to manage news and an election campaign. As Rush Limbaugh put it so well, this is like Watergate, except this time Woodward and Bernstein are on the other side, helping Nixon in the cover-up. And this time, the entire mainstream media are conspiring in the cover-up.
In my opinion, America is lost unless, at some point, the socialist, tyrannical, monolith that is the New York Times, AP, and all the major networks, is thoroughly investigated and ultimately broken up. Or at least exposed as what they are: a leftist, evil, conspiracy hell bent on total control of the government and The People.

U.S. Media 10-26: Mr. Hagan is right. This was the date that journalists other than FOX news were exposed for what they've been doing for years -- blacking out any news that hurts their chosen candidate. Even when the deaths of good men are inolved.
MDJ, we expect better from you. Even if the AP ignores it, why can't you pick up the story from another source? When you know it's out there, when an organization like FOX News, (largest audience in the U.S.) breaks a story of this import, you should feel obligated to let readers know. I expect you might lose some subscriptions over this one if nothing is written.
I do wonder how you will publish the disgusting and inappropriate quote from Biden to the dead SEAL's family about his large anatomical parts. Leave it to Laughing Joe to be so hurtful with his big mouth. Those family members will never forget it, and if America knew, they would not vote for the inept and lying team of Obama/Biden.
You aren't a consumer of MSM, so how do you know the MSM hasn't covered the Benghazi story, including all the nutty conspiracy theories Fox is desperately spinning no that Mittens is trailing in key swing states?
They all have, including the part about the House Republicans killing the funding for more emabassy security that Fox hasn't covered.
Marietta parking and theatre issues pale in importance to Obama's Benghazi fiasco!
Your desperate comments reveal you as a hard corps liberal who knows his team has failed miserably and embarassed themselves in the process.
Good people, heroes, died on the anniversary of 9-11 because of the arrogance and incompetence of the current president. The truth will out, and I'm afraid, sir, you will want to crawl under your rock when it does. My regards to Mr. Hagan.
Sure, Foley, all those sources, including those in the military close to the action, are all mitaken, or are lying, and we should not believe them. Instead, we should put our trust in Foley who makee his iving concocting facts to make things look diffferently than they are.
Fat Chance, Kevin.
It might also be noted that the trillion dollar pricetag over ten years is 1/16th of the deficit president Obama has racked up in just four years.
