Two questions, neither of which was answered in the article:
1. What’s next for Donilon?
2. Why did he resign?
Unstated....... why is he resigning?
Wow! Susan Rice is about as qualified to give the President competent National Security advice as she would be to give Ben Carson advice on pediatric brain surgery. Perhaps even less so.
He either feels like all of the scandals have exposed him and he now has nothing to hide; or he feels like he now has concentrated his power over the government enough that he can now take of his mask.
The bigger question may be, what prompted Donilon to resign? What scandal is he involved with that we don’t know yet?
Well, I certainly feel more secure already. We know that she will clamp down on those who make videos that cause mohammedans to behave like wanton savages.
Must every day start with screaming at the TV???
am I actually in a deep sleep having a nightmare?
Seriously , she gets promoted when she lied about the deaths and the attack which led to the deaths !!!
Obama is just sticking his finger to the country , the constitution and the laws because he knows and understands that the media is still covering for him.
I have just spent all morning flicking news channels and not once as of yet CNN on either of their channels have mentioned any corruption, nothing about anything except useless stuff.
MSNBC is talking mostly about polls and how oabma has kept his numbers up and only FOX is talking about Rice, and the IRS and what is really happening in the country.
Obama and his thugs just move their sidekicks about knowing the cowardly GOP won;t do a damn thing except useless hearings.
Call a press conference, get every media outlet in there.
Mention the different corruption which is taking place.
Then end it with how some of you here in this media voted for Obama but maybe it is high time for you who have been covering for your vote to now understand that you need to put politics aside and inform the country of what and who is really running this country
Some bio:
Rice attended Stanford University, where she received a Truman Scholarship, and graduated with a BA in history in 1986. She was elected to Phi Beta Kappa.[9][10]
Awarded a Rhodes Scholarship, Rice attended New College, Oxford, where she earned a MPhil in 1988 and DPhil in 1990. The Chatham House-British International Studies Association honored her dissertation entitled, “Commonwealth Initiative in Zimbabwe, 1979-1980: Implication for International Peacekeeping” as the UK’s most distinguished in international relations.[5][11]
Marriage, family, and early career[edit]
Rice married Canadian-born ABC News producer Ian Officer Cameron[12] in 1992 at the St. Albans School chapel.[13] They met as students at Stanford.[14] They have two children.[8][9][15]
Rice was a foreign policy aide to Michael Dukakis during the 1988 presidential election. She was a management consultant at McKinsey & Company, a global management consulting firm, from mid-1990 when she received her degree from Oxford to early 1992 when she worked for the Clinton campaign.[16] Rice worked in McKinsey’s Toronto office for a time.[17]
Even though she served on the National Security Council under President Clinton, Rice seems to have slept through the last two decades. She is fanatically pro-UN and wants the United States to work closely with the United Nations in order UN+Ambassador+Susan+Rice+Testifies+House+Committee+ujZYem6 I2el Obama Surrounds Himself with the Most Extreme Appointees in American Historyto carry out all kinds of humanitarian and military actions, seeming unaware that the UN has never been supportive of US interests. They don’t stop wars; they don’t sanction terrorist regimes, and their internal corruption is so pervasive they can’t even carry out humanitarian missions. But rather than hold the UN responsible for its obvious failings over the years, Rice blamed Bush for being “unilateral” and for “stiff-arming our partners.” She even sits on the board of the UN Fund for UNICEF, an agency which has been repeatedly caught giving aid to terrorists, and during the Cold War, assisting communist insurgents.
More seriously, she is overly cautious in regard to fighting terrorism. The former Ambassador to Sudan implicated Rice as the person who bungled the opportunity to take out Osama bin Laden when Sudanese officials offered him to the USA on a silver platter during the Clinton years.
She rejected their offer. There’s a good chance 9/11 could have been avoided if Rice had accepted the Sudanese offer. Apparently, even though she worked for the NSC, she didn’t regard Al-Qaeda as a threat. No wonder we were hit on 9/11. And now she’s our UN Ambassador? I wonder whose interests she will serve…probably the UNs.
Isn’t the nsa personal staff and not requiring Senate confirmation?
Actually, the regime is playing marxical chairs. The way this is played is, the players commit acts of treason, then the "music" starts consisting of rising choruses from conservative media. When it grows too loud, the players find new chairs to commit treason, the music lowers to a temporary din, and the game continues. Seems to me that no chairs are removed in this version...
He is a man so overwhelmed with spite that all he truly lives for is to agitate and incite anger. He lives to stand there and twist his opponents noses and he loves, I would say he LIVES for, their response of anger.
He relishes making others angry.
At his core this IS all he is, a spite controlled bitter man who only seeks to agitate and anger people.
Its like an addiction for him.
I don’t know about you folks but I feel safer already. She’s pluperfect!
The 0 administration is daring the opposition to actually do something. Congress needs to double down on financially obstructing EVERY 0bama initiative.
WE THE PEOPLE need to work tirelessly to make the 2014 midterms a resounding, crushing, embarrassing defeat for 0 and his policies. It should be energizing to remember that possibly the ONLY reason we lost in 2012 was 0 and his cronies cheating relentlessly.
In the meantime, we can hope that impeachment proceedings begin over one or more of the unconscionable things 0 has likely done.
Can’t stop this so ridicule it. Call her Obama’s National Security Liar.
Look at the bright side the confirmation hearings are going to be great fun.
Popcorn all around.
In a word, NO!
Get this woman off the payroll today.
