THE PICNIC TO THE PANIC

President Obama was re-elected in November, 2012.  Democrats held a picnic to rejoice over their great victory.  Now, just six months later, they are showing signs of panic.  The White House held a deep back ground off the record meet and greet with selected White House news reporters today.  It is an act of desperation:

The White House has moved into full crisis management mode.  The Benghazi story is picking up steam.  It is exploding faster than anyone predicted. We could easily be on our way to a select committee:

These “off the record” meetings are designed for the administration to leak information to the media that they would never say publicly.  One possibility is that they will blame everything on Hillary.  Obama always blames somebody else for everything.  Obama would blame Bush, but that is clearly not an option.  But I wonder if Obama understands the size of the “protect Hillary at any cost brigade?”  A huge part of the main stream media is already in their full Hillary protection mode.  They will not respond well if Obama throws her under the bus

The least likely scenario is that this administration will just tell the truth. 

To add salt to the wound, the families of the Navy Seals killed in a helicopter crash held a Press Conference.  They played a video of a Muslim cleric speaking at the funeral for these Seals in Afghanistan.  No Christian clergy was allowed to participate.  We didn’t want to risk offending Muslims.  If the translation is accurate, this Muslim cleric chose to rip the Seals at their own funeral service.  I can’t imagine many things that will be more infuriating to Americans.  Following is the link to the video.  Judge for yourself:

This is what happens when our politicians let political correctness over-ride common sense.  When Osama bin Laden was killed, we went to great lengths to give him a proper Muslim funeral.  Yet there was total disregard to the religious beliefs of our own Navy Seals.  This is disgraceful.
