Weekend Edition: NY Times – Covering (UP) Benghazi – Pt.1

Last week, the New York Times garnered publicity by trying to claim that the 9-11-2012 attacks in Benghazi really WERE because of an obtuse, low budget, You Tube video that, essentially, nobody saw.

The fallout was decisive from their inopportune editorial.

Members of congress from both parties quickly derided the opinion piece as bunk, citing evidence gathered via sources under oath from house and senate hearings that pointed directly toward al Qaeda and their affiliate, Ansar al Sharia…al Qaeda by another name.

Many called the NYT piece what it was.

Very few in a positive way.

Employers, PLANING FOR THE RECENTLY DELAYED UNTIL 2015 MANDATE, will begin planning and informing employees regarding the dumping of the plans they have been providing thus dumping millions upon millions of American workers into the Obamacare abyss resulting in higher and higher premiums and deductibles FOR those workers.

Other employers will be cutting their workforce, laying off employees and/or, cutting others to part-time hours.
