“They are not near Benghazi...This is silly”

These results are stunning. The only poll that BO is still  leading in is “likeability.” This could be another historic election:

The first time America has elected Ms. Congeniality to the Presidency?

-And I want to go on record right upfront and say that - despite what you may see or hear elsewhere - Big Guy is NOT getting tips from Honey Boo-Boo’s coach. 

Watch where you wag that finger, Big Guy.

Butt finally – we’re getting some answers. No, not about the Benghazi-gate fiasco. About why Big Guy lost the debate with Romney. Big Guy finally fessed up to having a hand in the defeat:

“I think it’s fair to say I was just too polite," the president said when asked about his first debate performance during an interview on the Tom Joyner radio show. "The good news is, is that’s just the first one."

…and I’ve been getting a little coaching

That’s a good sign – that he’s listening to his handlers I mean. In addition to body language, they’re practicing the tough questions that are sure to be posed by one of “our” debate moderators:

Q. Mr. President, what do you consider your greatest flaw?

A. Well, David, I’d have to say I just care too much.

Meanwhile, in addition to the litany of excuses that the rest of the team has come up with for Big Bird’s Guy’s bad showing in the Mile High city, San Fran Nan has come up with her own creative twist. I call it the Nixon Defense;  “it sounded better than it looked.” Interesting theory; Nan claimed that she listened to the debate on the radio and it sounded like a draw to her. While Nan is not known as the most astute Pol in Washington, especially after a few pops, still - it’s as good as anything else we’ve got. 

Butt there are other things going on besides the re-election campaign - really! For example, there’s that pesky allegation of a cover up of the facts surrounding the murder of our Ambassador and 3 other Americans in Libya. These charges are simply not true: butt don’t take my word for it, ask Jay-Jay, current chief spokesmouth and graduate of  Baghdad Bob’s School of Journolists.

Admirably, Jay-Jay continued to doublespeak his way around the truth as well as he could - given the knee deep hoopla that he found himself wading around in.

“We have been clear all along that this was an ongoing investigation, that as more facts became available we would make you aware of them as appropriate, and we have done that,” Carney said. (snip)

“I think there is no question that when four Americans are killed at a diplomatic facility, that something went wrong,” Carney said.

No sh*t, Sherlock.

“From the day that this happened, the president has been focused on ensuring that we are doing everything we can to bring the perpetrators to justice, making sure that diplomatic personnel and facilities around the world are protected, and that we take the steps necessary to find out what happened and why,” Carney said

Maybe that famous Psychic at Bellagio can tell me who murdered my Ambassador.

I sure hope somebody can clean up this fine mess we find ourselves in - through no fault of Big Guy or anyone in his administration who inadvertently denied extra security requests for the embassy in Benghazi multiple times. Because we’ve got a reelection to WIN!

And in order to WTF, we’re going to need a performance from  Mr. Claire Shipman that’s at least as good as the master:

You know, it just occurred to me: we might need to find another scapegoat to wiggle out of this one.

Hey! Do you two babes have a minute to take a meeting?

I’m sure Hil will understand if Big Guy just explains that “we’ve decided to go in a different direction.” And Huma, well, she has a new baby and an unemployed husband, so she probably wants to spend more time with her family anyway.
