Liberals are in a celebratory mood following last week’s appearance of Hillary Clinton before a special committee investigating the details of American deaths in Benghazi. Hillary is being declared “the winner” of the marathon session, not because she isn’t responsible for gross negligence, professional incompetence, and quite likely criminal actions – but because she’s going to get away with it.

In Liberal-land, there is no crime unless you’re caught and convicted.

Need further proof? Then consider the fact that Obama has had over 6 years to present his “common sense” ideas, and instead he’s given us this…

One of the previous ways Mr. Common Sense wanted to curtail gun violence was by having the DOJ give guns to Mexican drug cartels and then track what happened.  Unsurprisingly, it turns out that the guns were used to kill hundreds of people, including U.S. border agent Brian Terry.

Also, following the Sandy Hook shootings, Obama tasked his most trusted associate with the job of coming up with bold, innovative new “common sense” gun control policies. Not that we actually remember him producing any…
