The way things were going, it was only a matter of time before the wingers blamed the Kenyan Mooslim socialist in the White House for the Benghazi attacks. Well, WorldNutDaily's Erik Rush went there in his latest column. He claimed that it is very possible that Obama himself may have masterminded the slaughter in Libya.
Earlier this week, Fox News Channel analyst Brit Hume asserted that for the investigation of the Sept. 11, 2012, attack on the U.S. mission in Benghazi, Libya, “to become the scandal it surely deserves to be,” it will require relentless news coverage.
Hume is quite right, of course; however, there is another requisite for definitive results to develop with regard to Benghazi, and that is the willingness of Congress to see the process through to a just conclusion.
And what would be a just conclusion?
I suppose that depends on two things: One, what is revealed in the hearings, and two, whom one asks. I have always leaned in the direction of the administration having orchestrated the attack for reasons of its own – given his connections to the Muslim Brotherhood and legendary understanding of all things Islamic, it is possible that President Obama could even have arranged for the assault on the compound without the foreknowledge of his Cabinet.
Rush's "evidence" for such lunacy? Obama has supposedly killed before. It's an article of faith on the wingnut fringe that Obama
orchestrated the 2007 murder of several of his former gay lovers who attended Trinity United Church of Christ with him.
The reason no one has suggested this possibility before? According to Rush, it's because of two factors. One, Obama still has the press wrapped around his little finger. Second, and more importantly, impeachment could very well generate civil unrest. However, Rush says, if the "abject criminality" of the Obama White House becomes more apparent, it's a risk worth taking.
