Behold the brilliance:

Romney was too incompetent to even capitalize on Obama’s Benghazi scandal. As if he’d have been able to articulate on this?

Ouch. At the going rate Obama and ObamaCare will collapse under the weight of incompetence and scandal.

On the same day that he took the plunge into the mayor’s race, voters told Anthony Weiner he’s not cutting the mustard with them.

The timing was coincidental, but a Quinnipiac University poll was released this morning just hours after Weiner ended months of speculation by declaring his candidacy via video.

The poll showed the frisky former Congressman has less support today than he did last month, before the launch of an orchestrated campaign to rehabilitate his image as a serial tweeter with a lewd bent.

On the question of should he or shouldn’t he run, the answer came back 49 percent no and 38 percent yes.

That means Weiner’s task in convincing voters the sexting scandal is behind him is tougher today than it was last month.

In the previous Q poll released April 19, the split was a more sympathetic 44 percent against and 41 percent in favor of Weiner’s candidacy.

This about sums things up for Weiner:

Michael Clemente, the executive vice president of Fox News, said on Monday that it was “downright chilling” that Mr. Rosen “was named a criminal co-conspirator for simply doing his job as a reporter.” Bruce Brown, the executive director of the Reporters Committee for Freedom of the Press, added on Tuesday that treating “routine news-gathering efforts as evidence of criminality is extremely troubling and corrodes time-honored understandings between the public and the government about the role of the free press.”

The Rosen case follows other signs that the administration has gone overboard in its zeal to find and muzzle insiders. The Associated Press revealed last week that the government had secretly seized two months’ worth of records for telephones used by the agency’s staff, partly to determine the source of a leak about a report involving a foiled terrorist plot in Yemen. At least two other major leak investigations are continuing. Six current and former administration officials have been indicted under the old Espionage Act for leaking classified information to the press and public. In 2010, a federal judge in Maryland sentenced a leaker to 20 months in jail while admitting that he was “in the dark as to the kind of documents” involved in the leak or what impact they had on national security.

Obama administration officials often talk about the balance between protecting secrets and protecting the constitutional rights of a free press. Accusing a reporter of being a “co-conspirator,” on top of other zealous and secretive investigations, shows a heavy tilt toward secrecy and insufficient concern about a free press.

Now if only Obama’s lapdog White House press corps would speak up on behalf of Rosen. What they should do is boycott Jay Carney’s daily briefings, for starters and then also ignore Obama’s press conferences. We won’t hold our breath.

Heather French Henry, a 2000 Miss America titleholder and wife of former Kentucky Lt. Gov. Steve Henry (D), is contemplating launching a challenge to Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) and has been contacted by officeholders in the state urging her to run.

“I’m not saying no yet, but I’m not saying yes,” she told The Hill on Tuesday.

President Obama’s approval rating has slipped into negative territory as a trio of controversies has chipped away at the president’s standing with the public, according to a Fox News poll released on Tuesday.

Speaking at a Jewish American Heritage Month reception last night in Washington, D.C., Vice President Joe Biden requested the “teleprompter in the room to be taken down,” according to the pool report.

Then he made a joke: “You can’t tell Barack that the teleprompter’s down. The standing joke in the office is Barack’s learning to speak without a teleprompter; I’m learning to speak with one.”

Biden added, “I apologize for the teleprompter.”

Someone needs to give this guy some English lessons. What they hell is this gibberish?

Biden described the late Sen. Arlen Specter, with whom Wasserman Schultz pushed through JAHM, as “a (sic) irascible guy, who was one of my closest friends in public live.”

Maybe we should call him Vice President Burgundy.

Anthony Weiner announced his campaign for mayor early this morning with — what else? — a leak.

Shortly after midnight, the disgraced ex-congressman’s campaign accidentally posted online a 2-minute, 16-second video in which he throws his hat into the ring, lays out his platform — and even acknowledges the scandal that ended his days in DC.

“Look, I made some big mistakes and I know I let a lot of people down. But I’ve also learned some tough lessons,” he says in the video. “I hope I get a second chance to work for you.”

The clip ends with Weiner on a stoop sitting next to his wife, former Hilary Rodham Clinton aide Huma Abedin, saying, “I will fight for you every single day.”

The stoop scene was shot May 16, according to pictures of the set taken by The Post.

The video — which came out just a few days short of the second anniversary of the day Weiner tweeted a sext of his bulging undies — ends with a logo: “Anthony Weiner for Mayor.”

Sources told The Post that the oddly timed video was legitimate, but that campaign staffers intended for the announcement to come out later today.

The video was posted on a campaign Web site and was then taken down, and then put back up. It also could be seen on YouTube.

In it, the former Queens congressman talks nostalgically about growing up in Brooklyn, notes that his mother was a teacher, and says he liked to watch the Mets play at Shea as a kid.

He also says he would work to lower rents and home prices and lift regulations on small business.

How does this tool plan to lower home prices? As always, the post has some fun with the story. Check out the URL:

President Obama on Tuesday encouraged young immigrants who entered the country illegally to share their stories with elected officials as the White House looks to build momentum for a new immigration push.

The meeting came as the Senate Judiciary Committee continued its markup of a Gang of Eight bill that should soon head to the Senate floor for a vote. Last week, a bipartisan group of House negotiators also said they had struck a deal on an immigration reform package.

The group of seven young immigrants said they told the president and Vice President Biden about their personal histories and worries about the future.

Aww. Meanwhile, his IRS stooge will be taking the Fifth tomorrow. How transparent. In further development, the JuiceBoxers have been invited over to the White House for a very special private briefing. Can’t wait for their spin. So we basically have a lawless administration that targets innocent citizens, journalists and let’s people die without aid encouraging illegal behavior. How fitting. And along come his lapdogs to get their marching orders.

The Department of Defense confirms to NBC 5 Investigates that accused Fort Hood shooter Major Nidal Hasan has now been paid more than $278,000 since the Nov. 5, 2009 shooting that left 13 dead 32 injured. The Army said under the Military Code of Justice, Hasan’s salary cannot be suspended unless he is proven guilty.

If Hasan had been a civilian defense department employee, NBC 5 Investigates has learned, the Army could have suspended his pay after just seven days.

Personnel rules for most civilian government workers allow for “indefinite suspensions” in cases “when the agency has reasonable cause to believe that the employee has committed a crime for which a sentence of imprisonment may be imposed.”

Meanwhile, more than three years later soldiers wounded in the mass shooting are fighting to receive the same pay and medical benefits given to those wounded in combat.

Retired Army Spc. Logan Burnett, a reservist who, in 2009, was soon to be deployed to Iraq, was shot three times when a gunman opened fire inside the Army Deployment Center.

“I honestly thought I was going to die in that building,” said Burnett. “Just blood everywhere and then the thought of — that’s my blood everywhere.”

Burnett nearly died. He’s had more than a dozen surgeries since the shooting, and says post-traumatic stress still keeps him up at night.

Burnett is now fighting a new battle; only this one is against the U.S. Army.

The Army has not classified the wounds of the Ft. Hood victims as “combat related” and declines to label the shooting a “terrorist attack”,

The “combat related” designation is an important one, for without it Burnett and other shooting victims are not given combat-related pay, they are not eligible for Purple Heart retirement or medical benefits given to other soldiers wounded either at war or during the Sept. 11, 2001 attack on the Pentagon.

As a result, Burnett, his wife Torey, and the families of other Fort Hood victims miss out on thousands of dollars of potential benefits and pay every year.

This is an absolute outrage, but we can’t say we’re surprised.

A new poll finds that a majority of Americans believe the Internal Revenue Service targeting scandal was an intentional effort to harass conservative political groups.

In a Washington Post/ABC News poll released Tuesday, 56 percent said the IRS use of higher scrutiny on Tea Party groups seeking tax exempt status was a deliberate move, with 31 percent calling it an “administrative mistake.”

Three teenage boys are accused of raping a 12-year-old girl at gunpoint and then posting a video of the attack on Facebook.

Kenneth Brown, 15, Justin Applewhite and Scandale Fritz, both 16, appeared at court on Friday charged with aggravated criminal sexual assault.

They are accused of luring the young girl to Fritz’s home in Englewood, Chicago, before sexually assaulting her.

The girl visited the home on West 60th Place on December 15, last year.

Prosecutors said she saw Brown hold a gun and was then told by Fritz to go to the basement.

The girl said she was raped by Fritz and then ordered to have sex with Brown and Applewhite.

Prosecutors said the girl refused but was raped by Brown and Applewhite and ordered to perform sex acts on them.

She feared being shot if she tried to escape, local media reported.

A day after the alleged attack, the child told someone and was taken to hospital and police were contacted. 

A video of the alleged attack was uploaded to Brown’s Facebook page two days later, according to the Chicago Tribune.

Brown also is on 18 months probation in a Nov. 28, 2012, unlawful use of a weapon case, prosecutors said. Brown is due back in court on that case May 22.

Just have a look at some of the tweets coming from coming from leftwing reporters and columnists this morning over the outrageous surveillance of FNC’s James Rosen.

They obviously understand if Obama can get away with this then freedom of the press is a thing of the past.

Former Time reporter Jay Carney should be in for a long day defending this latest Obama scandal.  Glenn Greenwald unloads here.

It is now well known that the Obama justice department has prosecuted more government leakers under the 1917 Espionage Act than all prior administrations combined – in fact, double the number of all such prior prosecutions. But as last week’s controversy over the DOJ’s pursuit of the phone records of AP reporters illustrated, this obsessive fixation in defense of secrecy also targets, and severely damages, journalists specifically and the newsgathering process in general.

New revelations emerged yesterday in the Washington Post that are perhaps the most extreme yet when it comes to the DOJ’s attacks on press freedoms. It involves the prosecution of State Department adviser Stephen Kim, a naturalized citizen from South Korea who was indicted in 2009 for allegedly telling Fox News’ chief Washington correspondent, James Rosen, that US intelligence believed North Korea would respond to additional UN sanctions with more nuclear tests – something Rosen then reported. Kim did not obtain unauthorized access to classified information, nor steal documents, nor sell secrets, nor pass them to an enemy of the US. Instead, the DOJ alleges that he merely communicated this innocuous information to a journalist – something done every day in Washington – and, for that, this arms expert and long-time government employee faces more than a decade in prison for “espionage”.

The Obama administration long ago declared war on Fox News. Who knew they would so casually break the law pursuing it?

The White House is circling the wagons as one of the most feverish periods of President Obama’s tenure enters its second week.

Obama and his aides have taken a more aggressive stance in recent days after fumbling their initial response to headline-grabbing scandals at different government agencies.

President Barack Obama told graduates from the traditionally African-American Morehouse College yesterday that ‘as a black man’ he feels a ‘special obligation’ to help those less fortunate them him.

In a personal commencement address to the college in Atlanta, Georgia, the president spoke about racism and how, given different opportunities, he could have ended up in prison or unemployed.

Any more scandals break out that could well happen.

The president told the graduates that they will all have been told ‘at some point in life as an African American you have to work twice as hard as anyone else if you want to get by.’

We’ve never had a more bitter or angry person in the White House. And we’re stuck with this jerk until January 2017? God help us. Ironic how the man who was nowhere to be found on the night of September 11, 2012 talks about working twice as hard.

The organizers of Tea Party Patriots have called for a nationwide protest against the Internal Revenue Service to challenge the government agency’s abuse of power while targeting Tea Party groups.

The planned protests will take place at IRS offices around the country at noon on Tuesday. The Tea Party Patriots website highlights over 100 IRS offices where protests are planned.

Although many Tea Party groups exist, the Tea Party Patriots is one of the most influential coalitions with over 3,000 organized chapters.

Have at it, folks:

A gay man was gunned down in Greenwich Village early yesterday allegedly by a bigot who hurled homophobic slurs at him — a senseless attack that Police Commissioner Ray Kelly called “clearly a hate crime.”

Brooklyn resident Mark Carson and a pal were walking on Sixth Avenue near West Eighth Street at around midnight when the two were approached by Elliot Morales, 33, and two other Hispanic men, police said.

“Look at these faggots,” one of the men snarled, remarking on the boots, cut-off shorts and tank tops that Carson, 32, and his friend were wearing. “What are you, gay wrestlers?”

Carson and his friend turned right onto West Eighth Street. One of the Hispanic men left. Morales and the other man kept shadowing them.

“Do you want to die here?” Morales asked Carson, a manager at a West Village frozen-yogurt shop.

“Is he your boy?” he asked Carson, pointing at his best friend of 15 years.

When Carson answered “Yes,” Morales pulled out a silver Taurus .38-caliber revolver and blasted him once in the cheek, authorities said.

Carson died shortly after at Beth Israel Hospital.

“I thought that kind of hate stuff was gone, but I see that it’s not,” the victim’s distraught father, Mark Carson Sr., told The Post.

At least three of the recent attacks have involved Hispanics, one a couple of weeks ago outside Madison Square Garden. We anticipate Bloomberg will take to the microphone to denounce these attacks as quickly as he speculated that it was anti-ObamaCare factions who were responsible for the Times Square bob plot in 2010. Then again, it’s doubtful he’ll point the finger of blame since evil “right-wingers” aren’t to blame.

Kelly speaks for all the decent Americans who are outraged over Obama’s IRS scandal. The sad thing is the left will no doubt attack him over this.
