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...

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.
