Hillary Clinton: will the Benghazi attack scandal ruin her Presidential hopes?

The US State Department covered up the Benghazi attack. Not that it happened, but why it happened. They did this cover-up for politics: to help Barack Obama win a second term. But don’t just take our word, or that of other alternative media, for that. Take it from ABC News.

Hillary Clinton: will the Benghazi attack scandal ruin her Presidential hopes?

On Wednesday, the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee will hear from three witnesses about the Benghazi attack of September 11 last year.

Too late for America?

The Tea Party in New Jersey hopes to make a difference in the primary.

Is it too late for our country?

The dust has long since settled regarding this past Presidential election which has embittered, disappointed and jaundiced many of those recently awakened patriots who left the comfort of their homes, traveled to DC or state houses and protested the organized destruction of their country. So many of them believed in their hearts, that millions of promulgating citizens, could wake up and shake up entrenched politicians. The question is: have they?

Saudi national: cover-up?

Boston aftermath - and set-up

On the day of the Boston Marathon Bombing, a certain Saudi national ran from the scene and landed in the hospital with bad burns.

America, what will be your fate?

Martin Niemöller reminded us why big government is a thing to fear

America, will you share the fate of Nazi Germany?

First they came for the communists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a communist;
Then they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a socialist;

Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak out for me.
