The Nuclear Deal with Iran exposes Benghazi Lie

News was made on two fronts in the House of Representative’s Committee looking into the nuclear deal with Iran but has gone unreported by seemingly every cable news and local news station on the air.  One has to wonder how such experienced and talented journalist could miss both sets of news made on that Tuesday by John Kerry but maybe this truly is more about viewership and ratings than anything else.  We all know that sex sells which is why movies and commercials are full of sexually implicit things, now we know that controversy gains viewers because instead of these stories being top news, they were pushed back for what? 

Well if this is true then let me be one of the first to clue this nation in but before I do let me also make one other thing extremely clear.  Nothing anyone says about this president and his administration is going to change the minds of those who truly despise him so this is not my reason for passing on what I learned on C-Span.  The purpose is to clear up the often misunderstanding that occurs when journalist chases ratings instead of facts.

The Myth of Benghazi has often been portrayed as the lack of accountability by this administration and the lack of punishment handed out to those whose failure contributed greatly to the loss of our Ambassador and other brave Americans.  Certain Republicans and so-called news agencies have been allowed to run free with this and often never challenged.  That all changed with the testimony of Secretary of State John Kerry on that Tuesday.  Before his time was up and leaving that chamber Mr. Kerry said something that made my hair stands up on edge.  He told anyone who was willing to listen and learn that two careers ended over that Benghazi mess as well as two other careers were seriously delayed.  In other words, two people were fired over Benghazi and two others were demoted or reduced in rank, statue and influence over the fatal mistakes made.  This information alone should have been enough to make anyone’s top story list but then it was not sensational enough probably.  Also among the Breaking News of accountability for Benghazi was another morsel of news that has gone unreported.

Secretary Kerry also corrected the tall tale about the Obama’s Administration’s not taking the security of Israel as serious as they should.  In his remarks to that particular individual, Secretary Kerry informed again all who would listen that not only was that a bold-faced lie but this president, speaking of Barack Obama, has done more to make sure Israel is safer than any other president in history.  What makes this breaking news is that it is just another accomplishment that does not receive as much coverage as say did the ACA website. 


Many speak of the legacy of this president and I know that he will measure among the greats but not now and not with the undying desire for ratings.  He will only be viewed as an accomplished leader by those who come after us because then and only then he will be viewed far less as the first African-American President and more as a President.

Movie Review-Harlan Coben's Shelter

  The movie Shelter is based on the bestselling series by Harlan Coben, it follows the story of Mickey Bolitar (Jaden Michael) after the death of his father leads him to start a new life in suburban New Jersey. When another new student disappears, Mickey finds himself tangled in a web of secrets. With the help of two new friends, Spoon (Adrian Greensmith) and Ema (Abigale Corrigan), they reveal a dark underground that may hold the answers to decades of disappearances. Keeping me totally engrossed from the first episode to the last was not really the storyline or the actions and dramas, it was how awesomely those actors and actresses played their roles.   It seemed so effortless, watching them, that it was easy to forget it was a movie/series. I could not control my anxiousness to start the next episode.   Not many movies can make me feel the same emotions that the players were supposed to feeling but man, this was one and that journey this series took me on was one that I must go on

The Determination of History to Repeat Itself is Due to our Cowardice to Stop It

  America has always been the land of opportunity however we have become lax in our efforts to ensure that this right is made available for all of us to achieve and enjoy.   Far too often, those who see themselves in a position of authority or great wealth begin to confuse themselves with an idea that since you may be thought of as successful, means your now have the power and authority to dictate to everyone else. This lying power makes those allowed to flex it feel bigger and better than they really are.   It gives them a false sense of righteousness and security over all people, places, and things which must be corrected before we completely lose our very humanity. Every last one of us knows this is wrong but history has allowed these individuals to exercise this false position of power without consequences and punishment. Every one of us is guilty of sitting on our hands and waiting on someone else to save us instead of finding our own intestinal fortitude to save ourselves.   We

Something to Think About Regarding These State’s Abortion Bans

  According to an article titled “The Conversation- A concise history of the US abortion debate, by Treva B. Lindsey, Professor of Women's, Gender and Sexuality Studies, The Ohio State University, Published: June 10, 2019, https://theconversation.com/a-concise-history-of-the-us-abortion-debate-118157 . History has again been totally ignored and the lesson lost.   This being the case, it bears out the great need for educated people to finally diagnose history as it happens and make the necessary changes to ensure that this particular piece of history is not constantly repeated. Consider this, “While many may think that the political arguments over abortion now are fresh and new, scholars of women’s, medical and legal history note that this debate has a long history in the U.S.   It began more than a century before Roe v. Wade. As of 2019 “around 1962 the Food and Drug Administration approved the first commercially produced birth control pill, Enovid-10. Although various forms of b
