Welcome to ‘Cargo Pants-Gate’

Talk about pulling a Seymour Hersh, Hayes Brown at Think Progress is trying to discredit Gregory Hicks, a Benghazi whistleblower, by attacking his managerial style and professionalism. By the way, all the sources cited in the piece are unnamed. Hicks gave testimony to Congress last week about Benghazi, and highlighted how he knew from the beginning that this was a terrorist attack. He said his “jaw dropped” when the Obama administration | Read More »
No Intelligence Briefing For Obama After Boston Terrorist Attack
By: Matt Vespa (Diary) | April 16th at 11:21 PM |
Even with details slowly coming to light – although it seems that the trail has gone cold – you would think the president would have an intelligence briefing. Nope. And most of the events today barred the press. This isn’t the first time Obama has skipped on intel. briefings after terrorist attacks.
Why Hello G.I. Jane

As Bridget Johnson tattled this morning, polls show support for women in combat. There has been a lot of discussion regarding Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta lifting the ban on women in combat positions. As Fox News posted on January 24: The change would open hundreds of thousands of front-line positions and potentially elite commando jobs to women. Panetta and Joint Chiefs of Staff Chairman Gen. Martin Dempsey both | Read More »
Paul Blart Could’ve Done Better in Benghazi
By: Matt Vespa (Diary) | December 11th at 03:29 AM |
Well, it seems that mall security could have done a better job protecting our compound in Benghazi. According to Kerry Picket, who recently made her move to Breitbart News, “a source with personal knowledge of the security situation in Benghazi … were shocked to learn State Department security personnel agents were not immediately armed. Additionally, agents separated from Ambassador Chris Stevens left to retrieve their M4 weapons | Read More »
Deciphering Susan Rice Without Being Racist
By: Matt Vespa (Diary) | November 21st at 03:08 AM |
I’m almost at the mark! I’m so excited. I just have one more jar of Ovaltine to drink before I’m able to send in my application for the James Clyburn Racial Code Word Decipher. It’s going to be useful – as we all try to make sense of the various racial code wards that have been hurled at Ambassador Susan Rice for her incompetence less than adequate | Read More »
No, Conservatives Don’t ‘Hate’ Stephanie Cutter
By: Matt Vespa (Diary) | October 26th at 03:05 PM |
Here we go again. Those mean conservatives ganging up of a poor, helpless liberal from the Obama campaign, which happens to be the president’s deputy campaign manager. We don’t “hate” Stephanie Cutter, which Amanda Marcotte suggested in her October 23 post on Slate’s feminist “Double X” blog. Ok, let me walk that back – most conservatives don’t “hate” Stephanie Cutter. You’ll always find those hyper-partisans, on either | Read More »
Playing With Horses and Bayonets

The debate last night was very boring. I’m enthused about voting Barack Obama out of office and I think Mitt Romney will win this election, but I definitely see why people probably switched off the debate to watch Monday Night Football or the San Francisco Giants game. In all, polls show that President Obama pulled ahead of Governor Romney, but this is the least important | Read More »

It’s time to leave Afghanistan
By: Matt Vespa (Diary) | October 15th at 05:30 PM |
When President Obama addressed the nation from Bagram Air Base last May with an update on our current withdrawal plans, Americans should have asked have we fought the good fight in Afghanistan? President Obama once called our engagement over there “the good war.” After all, Afghanistan was where the 9/11 attacks were first pitched to bin Laden and provided a place where training of al-Qaeda operatives could | Read More »
ABC News’ Tapper asks ‘didn’t President Obama shoot first and aim later?’
By: Matt Vespa (Diary) | October 11th at 11:07 AM |
Does anyone remember when President Obama and some in the media chastised Mitt Romney over his remarks after the Cairo protests and the Libyan terrorist attack on our embassy in Benghazi, which led to the assassination of Ambassador Chris Stevens? Who remembers when the media, by and large, ignored the true story, which surrounded the state of our security at the Benghazi embassy the day of the | Read More »
