MSM and WH Silence on Obama Abu Ghraib Moment

In war, it's not painted as a pretty picture. It is ugly and sad. It is the survive of the fittest. It is us versus them. There will be collateral damage. In the Obama Abu Ghraib moment, the media is keeping silent while we interpret the meaning of the pictures. With the Abu Ghraib incident under Bush, the media condemned that actions committed by the military to terrorist and criminals. Here, these pictures of the military posing with dead civilians are brushed under the rug by the media. Meanwhile, the White House is hoping the Japan nuclear fallout and going to war with Libya will quell any mention to Obama's Abu Ghraib moment. It seems the Obama presidency is starting to unravel. It is perfect timing for the 2012 presidential elections.

(HotAir) When the Abu Ghraib scandal broke in 2003, the mainstream media and liberal blogosphere couldn’t find enough column inches to express adequately their shock and revulsion. The New York Times alone published 56 stories on the hideous revelation that members of the U.S. Army Reserve had tortured prisoners of war and posed for “trophy pictures”—inexcusable acts that the Times placed squarely at the feet of then-president George W. Bush.

Nor could left-leaning sources conceal their delight when President-elect Barack Obama boldly proclaimed:

[U]nder my administration the United States does not torture. We will abide by the Geneva Conventions. We will uphold our highest ideals.

What a difference a president makes. Until you flash forward to today’s bombshell, dropped by the British newspaper The Guardian, noting that members of a self-styled U.S. Army “kill team” posed for photos not with tortured prisoners but with corpses. Of civilians. Whom they had killed.

After 15 Years Monica Lewinsky is Still in Love with Bill Clinton

Bill Clinton pointing his finger saying, "I didn't have sex with that woman." Yeah, right! HA-HA

(Mail Online) The scandal almost destroyed his career and left his presidency permanently tainted.
But 15 years on, Bill Clinton’s former intern Monica Lewinsky has not got married or had children because she is reportedly still in love with him and 'always will be'.

Miss Lewinsky, 37, has run a successful business, hosted a reality television show and moved overseas - but has never found love, according to friends.

‘Monica still hasn’t got over Bill and would take him back in a second,’ a friend said.

‘She told me: “There will never be another man in my life that could make me as happy as he did",' the friend told the National Enquirer magazine.

Miss Lewinsky was aged 22 in 1995 when she began working in the White House and had an affair with President Clinton, which he famously denied at first.

Mr Clinton was impeached by Republicans in 1998, who tried to throw him out of office.

But his wife Hilary said in 2007 that their marriage was 'worth the investment'.

Miss Lewinsky said her relationship with the president involved her performing sexual acts on him - but not sexual intercourse.
