KERRY TAKES A POWDER

Secretary of State John Kerry was asked by the House committee investigating the Benghazi Massacre to appear for the purpose of explaining why requested information was being delayed and/or withheld.  Kerry apparently stepped up to the plate and agreed to appear, but that was followed the next day by a communication from the State Department stating that Kerry would not appear after all; he's going on a trip to Mexico.  

If that "trip" turns out to be for anything less than the retrieval of a former U.S. Marine stuck in a Mexican jail, it's obvious that he got a call from the White House to get out of town. 

These obvious games serve no purpose other than to prolong the search for the truth and therein is my contention that the "truth" is something the White House urgently does not want to get out.  Whatever it is, we'll be to blame if we don't pressure Congress now to put an end to the stalling and game playing.  Let's invoke the American right to "transparency."
