A crisis happens every time the heat rises on the Administration.

Maybe its just me. Maybe I see ulterior motives in everything that happens in Washington,DC. Perhaps I am right though.

A few weeks back when the press was all over John Kerry for being out on his yacht during the coup in Egypt and the press was all over him about it, his wife was suddenly gravely ill. Yet we have heard little to nothing since about her condition. The “story” however, was effective at diverting attention from the John Kerry story. The news media was all over her visit to the hospital and attention was shifted away.

This week as the heat on Benghazi rose to near inferno levels in the media with the revelations about the CIA warning employees not to talk to the media or Congress and with CNN scooping an interview with a purported participant in the attack on Benghazi, we suddenly have a full blown emergency in the middle east. The embassies in most of the middle east are closing and there are travel warnings for Americans travelling globally. The reason for the alert is unclear as of this writing, but the effect is stunning. Fox News has devoted far more attention to this “crisis” and diverted itself from its relentless Benghazi coverage. You can bet that CNN, NBC, CBS and ABC will have nary a word on Benghazi on this evenings news.

Where there is smoke, there is often fire. Call me paranoid, but just think about how convenient these “crisis” situations are. I could be wrong but on the other hand…
