Yes, the hated Vast Right Wing Main Stream Media is at it again, punishing our Lord and Savior, Barry Obama and his ilk over that little event in Bengazi...or Benjazzi, or where ever.

Issa is just lying, lying, lying on MTP and Gregory just lets it all go unchallenged
I guess they think an impeachment attempt will be good for ratings
I mean, really! All the RWMSM does is attack Barry because he is black!!!

3. oooh, I think you are right. Remember how the media went after Gore
over something he never said? ("I invented the internet")
they are working up a cliffhanging tizzy for November sweeps.
Well, the VRWMSM did ax 38 shows this season...Oh look! I can see Russia from my house!

5. I think Issa is looking like a smarmy little shit.
But that's just me....
The clip of Porgie saying he didn't write any emails because he was "fearful of congressional intrusion" was right on the money. And his lamenting that "history is lost" because of this was great.
And Issa was just forced to say "Hillary Clinton is NOT A TARGET..."
It's obvious that he's just bloviating.
Pogrie? Like Porgie and Bess?

THAT'S RACIST!!!!

8. I think a lot of these pundits are actually physically afraid of the republican's nuttier supporters
And that's why they never challenge them.
Every time David Gregory stands up to one of these assholes (OK, the three times he has actually done it) you can be sure he gets a ton of threats from some of the whacked out republican nut jobs. Threats of physical harm or death to himself and his family. At first he shrugs them off as the insane ranting of an unbalanced crackpot, but after he sees 20 or 30 of these things he might begin to get concerned. His wife may get concerned when she learns about them. Of course they're all loons, but one of them might actually try to do what he's threatening to do.
So after awhile, consciously or unconsciously, he begins to pull his punches. He lets his republican guests rattle on about Benghazi or whatever, realizing it's mostly bullshit but knowing what he'll have to put up with if he calls them on it.
And all of a sudden, viola, he's not an objective journalist anymore, he's a cheerleader for some of the fringe elements in US politics. He knows this and he's ashamed of what he has become but he still doesn't have the cojones to challenge republicans, so he beats up on the Democrats, knowing that their supporters are sufficiently sane to not threaten to kill him.

Just so it is clear about how I feel:
