In a move that is way beyond asking the fox to guard the hen house, President Obama has ordered Attorney General Eric Holder to head up an investigation of claims that his Justice Department spied on a Fox News reporter.
The move would have failed the smell test even if Holder had had no involvement in the DOJ’s charge that Fox News Channel’s chief Washington correspondent James Rosen was a “possible co-conspirator” in a leak case.
In what has to be the final triumph in his administration’s whitewashing of its mishandling of the Benghazi scandal, President Obama has announced plans to promote the person who cleansed the talking points of their references to terrorism
That person is Victoria Nuland. At the time, she was a State Department spokeswoman. Now she has been nominated to become an assistant secretary of state.
When it comes to ingenuity, drug smugglers are second to none. Even though they were nabbed by the federales last January, two Bronx neighbors deserve credit for attempting to sneak six and one half kilos of cocaine through customs at JFK Airport by stashing the goods in makeshift adult diapers.

But, is he ready to lead?
Appearing on CNBC’s “Kudlow Report” with Larry Kudlow, former Democratic Party presidential candidate and DNC chair Howard Dean dismissed the controversy surrounding the Benghazi terror attack as “ridiculous” and a “laughable joke,” The Blaze reported Tuesday.
“This is about issues that are important to the American people,” said RNC communications director Sean Spicer.
On Wednesday, Lois Lerner, the director of the IRS division that targeted conservative groups, invoked the Fifth Amendment when appearing before the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee, telling the committee she broke no laws and did nothing wrong, Fox News reported.
An Obama Administration that first sought to limit freedom of religion to worship also solicited the content of the prayers of political opponents whose free political speech rights they denied in the Election of 2012.
When Democratic Party-like “satraps” sought to eliminate King Darius’s favorite Jew from influencing the Mede then ruling Persia, they conspired to appeal to the King’s vanity with an ordinance that:
Although she is not naming names (cough — OBAMA!) Emmy-award winning CBS News investigative reporter Sharyl Attkisson claims her personal and work computers have been compromised and are under investigation.
