Were the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association and Samaritan’s Purse organizations targeted by President Obama’s IRS like Tea Party groups and conservative Jews were? Rev. Franklin Graham says “yes”, according to Politico: The IRS came after Billy Graham, too, his son charged Tuesday in a letter to President Barack Obama. Franklin Graham, the president of the Billy Graham [...]
**Posted by Phineas Via PJM. This is one of those statements that makes you think “No, you didn’t just say that, did you?” He did: “Now, with hindsight, don’t you [Amb. Thomas Pickering, co-chair of the Accountability Review Board] think it would have been important to ask her about that conversation and other decisions she made [...]
**Posted by Phineas Jewish groups that are favorable toward Israel. We all know how close the President is to Israel, now don’t we? This just gets better and better.

**Posted by Phineas Via Sharyl Attkisson/CBS News, this is just disgusting: The deputy of slain U.S. Ambassador Christopher Stevens has told congressional investigators that a team of Special Forces prepared to fly from Tripoli to Benghazi during the Sept. 11, 2012 attacks was forbidden from doing so by U.S. Special Operations Command South Africa.
