9/11 – A Tale of Two Presidents

  OK. I admit, we don’t know exactly what happened in Benghazi on the long night of 9/11/12.   What we do know is that four were killed, and that many more would have been killed if not for our brave SEALs. President Obama and Hillary Clinton have both claimed responsibility; and both have avoided blame. As it turns out, President Obama is responsible for both this debacle and its well-documented cover-up. Analysis over the last eight weeks leaves little doubt of this.

Polls show Obama’s lead there to be in between 3 and 5 points. Nevada is still a toss up even though there is conflicting talk as to whether Nevada is worth fighting for. Romney’s lead is growing in Florida, Virginia, and Colorado. The Obama camp is now having to fight rumors that they are giving...
