Unbelievable. She gets promoted! Wow. What a World.

[Triple]

Obama must have promised her a promotion for making the Sunday talk show round with a pack of lies about a video ‘causing’ the ‘spontaneous’ attack.

Should couldn’t get Sec State, because it was still too hot...

[Forty-Niner]

What in the world does this woman know about “National Security?” She can’t even tell a terrorist attack on our consulate in Benghazi from a clownish movie.....

Nope, don’t confirm her, never. Her political career should be over, as a rejoinder to Obama.

i saw it in a report somewhere recently that (a) this change was suspected as comming, (b) the outgoing NSA’s position vis-a-vis “intervention” in Syria was unknown but (c) Rice was believed to be much in favor of it.

So, Rice who had no problem mouthing the idea that protests over a video were the cause celebre that kicked off the terrorist assault in Benghazzi, now heads to NSA to support the Islamist “opposition movement” (Sunni/Saudi-Wahabi-Sunni/MB Islamist putsch) in Syria.

“Research work conducted on Whitehead has included that of Stella Randolph, a journalist–educator inspired and informed by aviation buff Harvey Phillips in the 1930s and supported by Professor John B. Crane’s articles from 1936–1949. Researchers from 1963 and forward have included: Major William O’Dwyer (ret.) of the U.S. Air Force Reserve in cooperation with the Connecticut Aeronautical Historical Association (CAHA); Harold Dolan, a Sikorsky Aircraft engineer and vice president–secretary of the CAHA.”

Sikorsky Aircraft (part of United Technologies today, is located in Stratford Connecticut.

Connecticut is “bringing it home” me thinks.

In addition to Whitehead, Igor Sikorsky, the founder of Sikorsky Aircraft in 1923, had a number of his own aviation firsts.

Sikorsky designed and flew the world’s first multi-engine fixed-wing aircraft, the Russky Vityaz in 1913, and the first airliner, Ilya Muromets, in 1914. (he was Russian, lived in Russia at the time and immigrated to the U.S. in 1919). And later developed and developed the first of Pan American Airways’ ocean-conquering flying boats in the 1930s. In 1939 Sikorsky designed and flew the Vought-Sikorsky VS-300,[3] the first viable American helicopter, which pioneered the rotor configuration used by most helicopters today. Sikorsky would modify the design into the Sikorsky R-4, which became the world’s first mass-produced helicopter in 1942.

sorry - I made the Gustave Whitehead etc remarks on this, the wrong, thread

[EBH]

This is satire right? Right? Please tell me this is satire...

[mentor2k]

It might come as no surprise to promote someone who may know too much if she isn’t kept happy

[b4its2late]

She’s been put there only to be able to be shielded from congres and to claim executive privilege if she was compelled to testify on Benghazi.

“Tom Donilon is resigning as President Barack Obama’s national security adviser and will be replaced by Susan Rice.”

Mmmm...kay.....One small question: How is she qualified for this post, exactly ?

Yeah, I know. I’m a racist for asking. (SARC!)

This is actually making me smile. Rice, Powers - those propositions are giving me a warm feeling. I believe a lot of people are misreading those moves. I believe the fact of the matter is, there is no one else. He has no one else. Think about it. When was the last time there were mazes of puff-piece articles on people who couldn't wait to work for the Obama Regime, couldn't wait to take office, show up for work. A long time by my reckoning. An exodus began well before the first term was over. Anyone with a modicum of intelligence bailed out back to their less elevated position in life a long time ago and some even seemed thankful for it. The complaints that personally reached my ears were that there was initially enthusiasm to work for what amounted to in their eyes a black Bill Clinton - they were sold on Obama being the youngish, charismatic, "D.C. outsider" guy like Clinton in '92, who was gonna shake up the establishment status quo. Well, reality set in on what the Obama gang is and is not, realized that they got sold a load of feces, and got the hell out of there. The circle of trustworthy cronies is very small for the Obama regime - they don't have much they can choose from. That situation can very exploitable. In a perfect world, Congress could work at stripping away what help is left to Obama and make his agenda essentially inert for the rest of his term. Maybe not totally halt it but darn sure take the steam out of it. Sure, he could appoint and nominate others that are not as close, but that doesn't appear to be a risk willing to be taken since they are not "family", so to speak, and also trying to get anyone on board and fitted in up to speed at this point in time would only increase the chaos inside the regime and add to the inertial breakdown of any number of agendas already in progress. This is another act of circling the wagons, with a dwindling pool of insider staff to do it with. It's the only explanation that makes sense to me.
