In his May 15 column, Tony Plakas thinks Benghazi is just a distraction. I don't think the families of the Ambassador Chris Stevens or the brave Navy Seals left to die would agree. Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton was responsible for placing...

There’s a familiar template for the “scandals” that have so far “plagued” the Obama administration, in that they are all, for the most part, total bullshit and/or unfortunate events in the vast federal bureaucracy that have...

"Was it because of a protest or was it because of guys out for a walk one night and decided they'd go kill some Americans? What difference -- at this point, what difference does it make?" That was how then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton famously...
