Originally posted at PolitiChicks.tv on Tuesday, November 6  ||   It seems that MSNBC’s Chris Matthews wants to get to the bottom of what really happened in Benghazi.  Really Chris?

Instead, you helped push the narrative that the attack was over some movie that…

Touting chief White House correspondent Chuck Todd's exclusive interview with President Obama on Thursday, Nightly News anchor Brian Williams proclaimed: "We are all about to hear the President of the United States apologize, and not just for the troubled rollout of this new health care website, but for the fact that his promise to the American people that 'If they like their current health…
