This speech by Lara Logan is important and revealing, and stands as a condemnation of Barack Hussein Obama’s foreign policy and the false narrative spun by Obama’s state media. Stick with the entire speech because in the last few minutes, her anger at the lies perpetrated by the Obama regime becomes incandescent.

Back in February 2011, CBS correspondent Lara Logan was gang raped in Tahrir Square by the darlings of the liberal media, the Islamists of the so-called the Arab Spring.
This was a collectivist attack on a single, vulnerable woman. Islam, like the international left, is a collectivist movement. Individuality is devalued in favor of a tribal identity. Hence, the pan-European Muslim rape gangs who view Western women as deserving of rape.
And of course, the verbal justification for the sexual assault and torture is that Logan was a Yahud — a Jew — and, naturally, an Israeli spy. It’s worth noting that in Iraq, American soldiers are also labeled Yahud by the locals.
Logan is not Jewish, but that hardly matters to the Arab Muslims who assaulted her. They just used the label to justify their barbarism.
Logan is back at work. She is actually a real journalist, not an Obama campaign worker, like 99.9% of the liberal media. In this speech at the annual BGA luncheon in Chicago, Ms. Logan takes Barack Hussein Obama to the woodshed for pushing the “major lie” that the Taliban has been weakened in Afghanistan by the U.S. military.
Logan also rips the administration for the way it has handled the war in Afghanistan and the attack on the U.S. consulate in Benghazi, Libya.
With barely suppressed fury, Logan eviscerates the liberal narratives of a moderate Taliban and Afghanistan as another Vietnam.
Of Ambassador Stevens, who was murdered and sodomized by the terrorists, Logan hopes the U.S. will “exact revenge and let the world know that the United States will not be attacked on its own soil. That its ambassadors will not be murdered, and that the United States will not stand by and do nothing about it.”
But as we all know, Barack Hussein Obama and his administration are involved in a massive cover-up. For this alone, Obama should be impeached.
Yes, the kinder, gentler Taliban. The kinder, gentler Taliban doesn’t stone women to death, it shoots 14 year old girls in the neck for wanting an education and says since they didn’t finish the job the first time, they’ll definitely do it again. That poor little girl is incredibly brave but she’s going to live the rest of her life looking over her shoulder because they will hunt for her to kill her off.
More people would be wise to read that speech and really, honestly listen to what she’s saying. She knows precisely what she’s talking about and she doesn’t mince any words saying it.
I was very impressed with Logan’ speech.
I am also a reader of Schlussel’s blog, so it is interesting that Miranda provided the link. Not sure what to think about Schlussel and her take on things. She makes some interesting points on her daily blog, but she is always calling out people (on both the left and right) as “frauds”. She seems to paint a lot of people with the same brush.

Debbie Schlussel doesn’t think much of Lara Logan.
She doesn’t like anyone, does she? She comes across as a little unhinged.
She is a hero of finesse, honor and beauty. I know New Yorkers who don’t believe her, don’t believe in her assault and think American foreign policy satisfactory. Don’t let Bill Clinton bull shit this election away.
More box office appeal than Ms. Plame….
A magnificent, passionate and beautifully articulated speech. I am extremely impressed by Lara Logan.
