The Truth is out there, but will we ever learn the truth?


In Cambridge Massachusetts, the police acted stupidly, and it required Pres. Obama to call the professor. 

When Treyvon Martin was killed, it required Pres. Obama to call the family. 

When we had the Benghazi attack, it required Pres. Obama to alert us to an unknown movie as the cause.  Even though, after he was alerted to the attack at 5pm by the then Secretary of Defense, Leon Panetta in the Oval office, he left to have dinner with his family and never followed up.  It seems the trip out to Colorado for campaigning the next day was more important over the lives of the Americans.  

When we had the Sandy Hook shooting, it required Pres. Obama to speak out on guns and the 2nd Amendment. 

When a NBA player comes out of the closet, Pres. Obama had to call him. 

When Sandra Fluke got into the news, it required Pres. Obama to call her. 

It is amazing how this president can respond quickly to issues while alleging little information or knowledge on the subject.  However, for the past 2 months we have heard there were many other people wounded in the Benghazi attack that the State Department and administration did not make available to Congress or the those performing an internal investigation of the incident.  Sen. Lindsey Graham had gone to Walter Reed Hospital last month and spoke to 3 of these wounded employees and clamed they were being told to shut up.  Just recently, Fox News (whether you like the organization or not) had an interview with one of these individuals who indicated that there are others who want to come forward with information on the attack, but have been threatened if they do with charges and lost of their job.  They have secured lawyers who are also being stonewalled by the State Department and this administration, especially after Congressman Daryl Issa has sent two letters to this administration requesting the administration to stop roadblocks from having these individuals testify before Congress.  Yet, at the President's' news conference the other day, the President indicated he has no knowledge on this and he would get back to the reporter who asked the question.  Of course, this is the same technique that spokesmen Jay Carney uses when confronted with a question he will not answer.  I do hope the reporter in this case does not hold his breath.  Believe who you want, but we must know the whole truth and the only way to get at the truth is for all those involved or who have knowledge of the Benghazi attack are given the opportunity to testify before Congress.  The State Department and the White House should not prevent these individuals from testifying, unless of course they have something to hide.  If not, then why are they putting up roadblocks?  Or in this case, may cause political problems for Hillary Clinton and her desire to run for president in 2016.  The mainstream news media does not report on this news since it involves a democrat, but rest assured if this was a republican, the Benghazi attack would have been front page news since 9/11/2012.  When the news media picks and chooses the stories to cover and report, our country is going down the tubes quickly. When government controls the news media, our constitution is lost and our freedoms will follow.  Just look at history in Germany, former Soviet Union, Cuba and Venezuela today and see how the news media is or was controlled by government.  We also realize that at least 50% of our population are clueless on issues, and that makes our elected officials, regardless of party affiliation, very happy.  The Truth Will Set You Free.
