Your Daily Grayson: Benghazi, the scandal that never was
by digby
I’m pretty sure that the right wing thinks Benghazi! is just another word for Whitewater!. They need these simple one-word rallying cries to gather the flock. It really doesn’t matter what it means.
I think their problem today is that they are well-known to be kooks on just about every subject and the country no longer has the luxury of wallowing in phony scandals as it thought it did back when it had no identifiable “enemies”, low unemployment and a once-in-a-generation technology boom. Things have changed.
Benghazi!™ is unlikely to evoke any reaction among the American people beyond a yawn. We’re dealing with a lot of stuff here.
