Reading list for you in Tunnel Dweller's absence

The Dweller family departs on the Holland America Oosterdam for an Alaska cruise and likely no access to the internet at that time since it costs mega bucks a minute. Perhaps this will entertain you, but news has a short shelf life.

CBS Anchor: 'We Are Getting Big Stories Wrong, Over and Over Again'
"And Pelley said the republic relies on the quality of the news business. "Democracies succeed or fail based on their journalism," said Pelley. "America is strong because its journalism is strong. That's how democracies work. They're only as good as the quality of the information that the public possesses. And that is where we come in." "

'Obama's America' Producer Requests Michael Moore Be Removed From Motion Picture Academy Board   "Many conservatives were disgusted this year when "2016: Obama's America" didn't receive an Oscar nomination for best documentary."

Sen. Collins: Obama should condemn IRS for targeting Tea Party groups

The Liberal Wall of Benghazi Denial Cracks  "In discussing the revelations of the last week, [Maureen] Dowd must, of course, try to depict Republican attempts to bring accountability to the scandal as equally reprehensible as the administration’s failures and lies. But her framing the current debate as a contest between “Hillaryland” and “Foxworld” has at least the virtue of acknowledging the fact that what we are discussing is a disgraceful dereliction of duty by the administration:"...

Crazy Nancy Attacks GOP Over Benghazi

 "That's the point, Nancy! When you liberals demand that the subject is changed, we better dig deeper into the issue you don't want to talk about. "

Benghazi Coverup Uncovered  "Here are the relevant timeline features from Doug Ross (time is local D.C. time)"

Covering for Obama  "After all, the whole saga of Benghazi — before, during and after the terror attack — reflects nothing so much as the ultimate expression of Barack Obama’s politics. His preference for showing weakness abroad and contempt at home reached its full flowering in the massacre and its aftermath."

 Victoria Toensing: Administration Relying on Shoddy Benghazi Report to Absolve Itself of Blame "The White House has touted the Accountability Review Board (ARB) investigation of the Benghazi massacre as a review “led by two men of unimpeachable expertise and credibility that oversaw a process that was rigorous and unsparing.” In fact, the report was purposefully incomplete and willfully misleading."

Two by Stephen Hayes: Carney Keeps on Digging  ...."But in his attempts to protect himself and his administration colleagues, Carney offered a series of highly misleading answers that seem likely to do additional damage to his cause and White House credibility."
The Benghazi Scandal Grows  'One day earlier, analysts with the CIA’s Office of Terrorism Analysis had drafted a set of unclassified talking points policymakers could use to discuss the attacks in Benghazi, Libya. But this new version​—​produced with input from senior Obama administration policymakers​—​was a shadow of the original.'

@Bill:

Are you folks sailing from Seattle?

I live just up the street from Pier 66, where the cruise ships for Alaska set sail.

It's a beautiful voyage and the price includes three meals a day.

Cheers, Ronbo
