Back in 2008 and several times since, I have posited that there are two kinds of Americans. There are those who look at the totality of our history and conclude, warts and all, that we are the greatest nation on earth. Then there are those who look at the same data and conclude that America is a fundamentally damaged enterprise in need of a complete overhaul. I noted that while the latter group is as entitled to their opinion as the former group, putting them in charge of the nation would be a terrible thing to do. If there is anything that ties together the three *current* scandals afflicting the Obama administration, it is this odious -- and progressive -- worldview. We begin with Benghazi. Let's skip all the political b.s., and get down to the real issue: character. We know from testimony given by former Secretary of State Leon Panetta and Joint Chief of Staff Chairman Martin Dempsey that they met with Obama less than an hour and a half after the onset of the attack on Benghazi. Following that meeting, *they never heard from the president again*. We also know Obama flew to a fundraiser in Vegas the very next day.

Last week was a tough one for progressives. The Boston marathon bombers turned out to be something other than: right wing extremists, Bible or gun "clingers," Tax Day protestors, Patriot Day protesters, Tea party members, or any other check-the-box category that would have satisfied progressives' warped sensibilities. Yet over the weekend, it remained clear that the president was willing to double down on the another warped progressive priority: maintaining a self-imposed blind spot regarding the reality that Boston was victimized by *Islamic* terrorism. It is a reality that this president has managed to downplay, due to a combination of determined law enforcement efforts -- and blind luck. "They failed because the people of Boston refused to be intimidated," the president said referring to the brothers Tsarnaev. "They failed because, as Americans, we refused to be terrorized." That statement in and of itself is curious. First, the people of Boston *were* terrorized, even if it was a short-lived emotion. Furthermore, if three people killed and more than 170 wounded, several of whom have had limbs completely blown off, is considered a "failure," one can only imagine what this president considers a "success."
