Breaking: Hillary Still a Liar
The New York Times, a former newspaper, greeted the new Benghazi report with this totally certified 100 percent bias-free headline: “House Benghazi Report Finds No New Evidence of Wrongdoing by Hillary Clinton.” As opposed to, say, “Benghazi Report Finds Hillary Clinton Brought Chaos Down on Libya Then Left Our People Stranded in the Aftermath Then Lied About It.” There’s that, and lots more, on today’s show – plus the world famous mailbag!

Great stuff, as always. Concerning the mailbag question on Nietzsche, I agree that he was an honest fellow that faced the consequences of God as the only-objective-basis for ethics squarely, but then that was Dostoevsky’s position too. The difference was that Dostoevsky was convinced that there must be a god and Nietzsche thought the opposite. Both knew that without him, all was allowed.
I happen to be reading the Bros. Karamazov again at the moment, so this was timely.
Add to the headline “…details at 11.” (if only)
But if I read you correctly, they admit Hillary had done some wrongdoing yes, but the more recent investigation didn’t find any more to add to the pile, so sorry, no details at 11. Despite the trove of new people interviewed, nope, nothing to add. It’s like they are implying everyone who had anything to do with the new report, whether those who compiled it or were interviewed for it, is too much of a chump to be bothered with. Is it too early to predict the Times will die from terminal lack of curiosity on the subject of Clinton-Benghazi?
