Condoleezza Rice pulls out of giving Rutgers commencement speech

[ SOURCE ] Former U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice backed out of giving Rutgers University's commencement speech today amid growing opposition among the school's students and faculty.

In a statement, Rice said she informed Rutgers President Robert Barchi that she has decided not to give the May 18 address.

“Commencement should be a time of joyous celebration for the graduates and their families. Rutgers' invitation to me to speak has become a distraction for the university community at this very special time," Rice said.

"I am honored to have served my country. I have defended America's belief in free speech and the exchange of ideas. These values are essential to the health of our democracy. But that is not what is at issue here," she said. "As a Professor for thirty years at Stanford University and as (its) former Provost and Chief academic officer, I understand and embrace the purpose of the commencement ceremony and I am simply unwilling to detract from it in any way."

Rice wished good luck to the Rutgers graduates.

Sean Hannity is a bold face liar on Benghazi!

Sean Hannity is a bold faced liar!

When it comes to Benghazi (okay, and everything else) Sean Hannity has no problem lying or leaving out facts that better put things in context. He has no problem calling Press Secretary Jay Carney a liar or political hack even while he is on air lying. I mean how can this happen with his crack (as in they are actually on crack) team of researchers.

Let's dive into this.

Hannity has repeatedly stated the US forces were told to stand down on both his radio and talk shows. There is just one huge problem.

There was no "stand down" order given during Benghazi attack. Republicans own report from the Republican dominated House of Representatives states so:

V. There was no “stand down” order issued to U.S. military personnel in Tripoli who sought to join the fight in Benghazi. However, because official reviews after the attack were not sufficiently comprehensive, there was confusion about the roles and responsibilities of these individuals.

Don't take my word for it, read it for yourself: http://armedservices.house.gov/index.cfm/files/serve?File_id=C4E16543-8F99-430C-BEBA-0045A6433426

When it comes to putting things in context Hannity completely leaves out relevant facts such as:

Ambassador Stevens twice said no to military offers of more security, U.S. officials say. Read more here: http://www.mcclatchydc.com/2013/05/14/191235/amb-stevens-twice-said-no-to-military.html

Benghazi attack followed deep cuts in State Department security budget: http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2012/sep/27/benghazi-attack-followed-deep-cuts-in-state-depart/?page=all

Now this is the United States and Hannity has the right to lie. My question is why is allowed to lie and misrepresent facts on a channel with "News" in it's title?
