Susan Rice Honored With 'Great American' Award Night Before Benghazi Hearing
U.S. Ambassador to the U.N. Susan Rice was honored Tuesday night with the 2013 Louis E. Martin Great American Award.
The Obama regime's Il bacio della morte
The annual award, presented by The Joint Center for Political and Economic Studies,
Oh, oh, lemme guess where this group is in the left-right pantheon...
is given to "an exemplar of change, progress and willingness to take one for the team if circumstances require. (I may have made that last part up.)

Specifically, the organization is honoring Rice for "her work in advancing U.S. interests, strengthening the world's common security and prosperity, and promoting respect for human rights," another press release states.
No specific contributions provided.
The evening gala and awards ceremony, which included Vice President Joe Biden, came the day before State Department whistleblowers testified at the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee hearing on the terrorist attack that took place at the U.S. consulate in Benghazi last year.
Timing was indeed critical.

#1  The Obama regime's Il bacio della morte
Is that a bacon dish?

#2  If it's Spanish bacio (vacio) means empty. If Italian it means kiss of death.

#3  Oh, oh, lemme guess where this group is in the left-right pantheon...

Ties to the Progressive Policy Insitute, if that means anything.

#4  The liar got promoted and the truth teller got demoted. Business as usual in Washington.

#5  They keep using this word "American." I do not think it means what they think it means.

#6  Now we've awarded you, be quiet on Bengazi, Understand?
