About Kate
Why this blog?
Until this moment
I have been forced
to listen while media
and politicians alike
have told me
"what Canadians think".
In all that time they
never once asked.
This is just the voice of an ordinary Canadian yelling back at the radio - "You don't speak for me."

Obama and Biden should be impeached for their cowardly actions. Neither one has the qualifications to fill their respective positions. What else would we expect from a community organizer and bombastic over-the-hill senator?
When Mitt Romney is President, his first act as Commander in Chief should be the award of the Medal of honor to Tyrone Woods and Glen Doherty. It should read thusly:
"For Conspicuous gallantry and intrepidity at the risk of their lives above and beyond the call of duty while protecting Ambassador Stevens and the the American Consulate, serving as SEALs. Tyrone Woods and Glen Doherty while on duty in Benghazi, ascertained that their position was to be overrun by Libyan Islamic Taliban. They called for air cover and back up, President Obama, the Commander in Chief, refused, he did not tell them. They, using their skills, training, and God given desire to save the Republic from all enemies, foreign and domestic, held their positions, put off an overwhelming force of insurgents numbered above 500, until their deaths, some 7 hours after calling for reinforcements. By their undaunting courage and unwavering devotion to duty, Tyson Woods and Glen Doherty gave their lives for their Ambassador and County, thereby reflecting great credit upon themselves and upholding the highest traditions of the United States Naval Service."
Someday we will know the names of the pond scum level of humanity that sat in the Situation Room in the White House and watched the live feed from the UAV flying overhead as mortar rounds killed Americans on the roof.
We will know their names.
Still RUMINT level, but they will not be able to contain the story.

This is serious stuff.
Treason.
"Any person who levies war against the United States or adheres to its enemies by giving them Aid and Comfort has committed treason within the meaning of the Constitution. The term aid and comfort refers to any act that manifests a betrayal of allegiance to the United States, such as furnishing enemies with arms, troops, transportation, shelter, or classified information. If a subversive act has any tendency to weaken the power of the United States to attack or resist its enemies, aid and comfort has been given."
http://www.thenationalpatriot.com/2012/10/27/weekend-edition-it-was-treason-arrest-obama/
The following is from Mark Steyn's column 'The Incredible Shrinking President' at the National Review. Steyn says that the WH knew from the first moment that the Benghazi attack was not a spontaneous demonstration but a planned terrorist attack. And,
"We also learned that, in those first moments of the attack, a request for military back-up was made by U.S. staff on the ground but was denied by Washington.
Why would Obama and Biden do such a thing? Because to launch a military operation against an al-Qaeda affiliate on the anniversary of 9/11 would have exposed the hollowness of their boast through convention week and the days thereafter — that Osama was dead and al-Qaeda was finished. And so Ty Woods, Glen Doherty, Sean Smith, and Chris Stevens were left to die, and a decision taken to blame an entirely irrelevant video and, as Secretary Clinton threatened, “have that person arrested.” And, in the weeks that followed, the government of the United States lied to its own citizens as thoroughly and energetically as any totalitarian state, complete with the midnight knock on the door from not-so-secret policemen sent to haul the designated fall-guy into custody."
That's what it's all about. Obama's fictional narrative is, to Him, far more important than reality. If real people die because of his choice of His Narrative over reality - he doesn't care.
Say, that article looks awfully familiar...
Loyalists should flood their Democratic reps offices demanding complete disclosure.AND be very blunt (gloves off)about it.
As an aside, one should note America's enemies are quite amused, at the jellyfish C in C (choomer in charge)
And here's another person speaking out. At the Blaze blog. Not the MSM. But the Internet is far more important as a source of factual data than the media which has devolved to partisan opinions.
"Francis “Bing” West, who served as an assistant secretary of defense under President Ronald Reagan, told Fox News’ Greta Van Susteren that the president’s explanation about his actions when the U.S. mission in Benghazi was attacked should be easily verifiable.
“President Obama today said that he gave an order to everyone while the attack was going on to do everything they could to secure the personnel,” West said. “Now that’s really big because that means that those who were turning down [former Navy SEAL] Ty Woods when he was asking for the help were going against the orders of the president of the United States.”
Note. Obama said that He had ordered that 'everything be done ..to secure the personnel' in Benghazi. So, anyone who rejected the personnel's requests for assistance, would be going against Obama's orders. Hmm. Now for the paper trail to, ah, 'prove' Obama's words. Don't tell us that he's lying yet again!
Why not after the election make Obama and Hillary ambassadors to the country of say Iraq?
Reminds me of the indignant statement from the prezzy during the second debate about how shameful it would be to say that any of his staff made decisions based on politics.
What a freaking douche bag. Jail would be too good for this guy
When Hillary Clintons First Amendment political prisoner gets out of jail, he needs the very best lawyers to sue, sue, sue ,sue and sue their insane liberal commy butts into the poor house.
I hope they start a legal fund to donate to.
"Who wants to sleep with a 16 Trillion broke loser twice?" - Steyn
Great line.

Profound comment and excellent link, Fred.
Thank-you for the link to Mark Steyn's article, Robert.
Has anyone heard any outrage from the former Mass gov yet? Congress?
I wonder how long the poor bastard who made that unfortunate video is going to languish in prison. Until AFTER Obama is safely back in the WH?
His only "crime" is a minor parole violation,something that drug dealers and rapists do with regularity,and they rarely go back to jail.
Benghazi is the most sordid episode in recent U.S. history,the Prez should go down for this breach of duty.
didn't willy clinton get impeached for lying about a blowjob, so this piece of shit should be impeached AND charged with treason!!!!
Fred
I'm getting a 404 on your link, is there another avenue to it?????
The scuttle-butt is that some White House staffer, unauthorized gave the stand-down order. Valerie Jarrette is the prime suspect because she twice earlier canceled the Osama hit.
There is a chance that POTUS was never informed....not mucha one....but.
IMHO, the donkeys were trying to repeat their earlier success at vilifying Palin but that was expected by the Romaney campaign and the public. Bad optics....
The WH has now come out, to counter the CIA memo. The CIA said that no-one in their department refused the request for assistance. No-one. That leaves the decision up to the WH.
But now, the WH has come out with THEIR disclaimer
"The White House on Saturday flatly denied that President Barack Obama withheld requests for help from the besieged American compound in Benghazi, Libya, as it came under on attack by suspected terrorists on September 11th.
"Neither the president nor anyone in the White House denied any requests for assistance in Benghazi," National Security Council spokesman Tommy Vietor told Yahoo News by email."
So now, we have actual evidence that at least three requests for assistance were made; that they were all turned down - and not one authority will take responsibility for these denials. Not one.
Obama=Asswipe
In the absence of a paper trail, I'd say that B. Hussien is lying.
This does set up a fairly big fight between the White House, the CIA, and those that would like to see the truth come out before the election in 10 days.
Will B. Hussien stop campaigning for a day, find his paper trail, and to show his duty to the office of the presidency?
Ha!
Liar liar.
ET: "...and not one authority will take responsibility for these denials. Not one."
So now we have to wait for the proverbial John Deane to turn over the rock from the inside. He turned because Nixon and Co. were going to throw him under the bus. The same thing will happen here. Someone will spill.Not all of The President's Men will be willing to take the bullet for this lying sack of sh!t.
Classless turds.
Even the phony Bill Clinton could work up a tear in his eye when the caskets were brought home.
In this photo, I betcha Barry is thinking, "I came back from Vegas for this?"
Can I ask a question?
What are all the American soldiers irate about the Benghazi martyrs upset about? That Obama doesn't care if American patriots live or die? Well, of course not! If you aren't Bank of America and you haven't millions of dollars to "lend" to him so he can pay his "community" to vote for him 15 or 20 times over and thrust him back into office, why should he give a tinker's curse? Patriotism, to the likes of scum like Obama, is for fools and "crackers."
The young pallbearers had the opportunity of a lifetime. If they had really wanted honour the memories of the Benghazi martyrs, nothing was stopping them from turning on their heels, drawing their sidearms and making Barack Hussein Obama lie down.
ET So, as C-inC of the armed forces, wouldn't that "Order" be recorded? Let's see it!
The military are nothing if not anal about written orders.
Robert, the order will indeed be recorded somewhere. Eventually it will turn up.
As for Dick's utter crass stupidity, we'll pass over that in silence.
Oh come on folks Oblamebush has never been president. Valerie Jarrett has been president since the last election. Oblamebush just gets to do the glitterati circuit so Valerie can continue to be president for another 4 years. Oblamebush didn't even know this was happening until it was over and when it was over he didn't feel any personal responsibility for it because he literally had nothing to do with it.
Ahem, where was Reggie Love when the president retired to bed at nine PM?
I am still wondering why none of this is being covered in the media. It is such a BIG story. I can only think that they are so in denial about Obama that they cannot accept this egregious error was due to his incompetence or actual malice. Some news media will have been told to keep it out of the news, but I suspect many other reporters are deliberately avoiding the incident because of their own culpability in supporting Obama. What is so self defeating here is that even if Obama gets re-elected, he will surely soon be impeached. Perhaps Hilary is counting on this. I think she is third in line, and it would not take much to bump Biden out of the way.
Nothing but a chimp. But BM thinks that is inappropriate...
RFB Obama=Asswipe - used
There's a Scripture passage that perfectly describes Obama, comparing a genuine shepherd, Jesus, to an imposter:
Very truly, I tell you, anyone who does not enter the sheepfold by the gate but climbs in by another way is a thief and a bandit. The one who enters by the gate is the shepherd of the sheep. ... The [sheep] will not follow a stranger, but they will run from him because they do not know the voice of strangers. Very truly, I tell you, I am the gate for the sheep. ... The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy. ... The hired hand, who is not the shepherd and does not own the sheep, sees the wolf coming and leaves the sheep and runs away--and the wolf snatches them and scatters them. The hired hand runs away because a hired hand does not care for the sheep ~ John 10.
Obama: Thief, bandit, stranger, hired hand, who steals, kills, destroys, and runs away, leaving the sheep to the ravages of the wolf.
