As Congress prepares this week to conduct hearings into the Benghazi debacle, it must zero in on the true scandal – namely, the predictable, wholesale failure of Team Obama’s embrace of dangerous Islamists overseas and here.

Unfortunately, we have seen how readily legislators and the rest of us can be deflected from such an urgently needed focus. That’s been the serial effect of: Mitt Romney’s fecklessness in addressing it squarely in the campaign; official disinformation about some video and security conditions before and after the attack; Hurricane Sandy; and now the titillating story of General Petraeus’ extramarital affair.

The good news is that the real issues were addressed brilliantly in a panel sponsored yesterday by the Center for Security Policy. Check it out at SecureFreedom.org – and urge your representatives to do the same.
