This cannot end good.
They say Obama is stewing in his own juices in the WH. He sits alone, asking why WE have turned on him?
The office slowly cooks cellars and likely gals soon too over time,, like a crock pot, on low.. And now ,, the switch has been clicked to high and the stew is a bubbling..
FDR had his soup&bread lines,, Obama has his..
Things change,, things stay the same.. Yada yada.
And, like Dracula, you got to catch him pretty early in the morning, before he hits the links.
But what about the meme the “stand down” order was a fallacy?
Poorly planned mission.
Poorly executed mission.
Poorly secured mission.
Poorly shut down mission.
Bet this was run out of the White House basement.
Hicks: Special Forces Furious Upon Being Told to Stand Down video at link"According to Benghazi whistleblower Gregory Hicks, the deputy chief of mission in Libya, special forces were furious when they were told to stand down during the Benghazi attack. I will quote Lieutenant Colonel Gibson, Hicks told the House Oversight Committee in hearings today, He said, This is the first time in my career that a diplomat has more balls than somebody in the military."
This might be considered a stand down too.
Whistle-blower: Botched talking points hurt FBI probe of Benghazi attack"Another whistle-blower questioned Wednesday why more military assets were not deployed sooner during the Benghazi terror attack. Mark Thompson, a former Marine and official with the State Department's Counterterrorism Bureau, said he was rebuffed by the White House when he asked for a specialized team -- known as a FEST team -- to be deployed. This is a unit made of special operations personnel, diplomatic security, intelligence and other officers."
Here is a third way a "stand down" policy was implemented IMO.
Blow-by-Blow: How Obama & Hillary Left Americans to Die"Nordstrom further testified in writing that Hillary Clinton waived security requirements for the Benghazi consulate despite high and critical threat levels in the six categories of security standards established under the Overseas Security Policy Board and the Secure Embassy Construction and Counterterrorism Act of 1999. The waiver can only be authorized by the Secretary of State, who cannot delegate that responsibility to someone else. If the Secretary of State did not waive these requirements, who did so by ordering occupancy of the facilities in Benghazi and Tripoli? Nordstrom wrote."
Not a single “reporter” has asked obama where he and Hillary Clinton were on the night Americans were under attack.
They know but are covering up their dereliction of duty.
The State Dept. and the CIA were “secretly” using the Benghazi compound to illegally funnel arms through Turkey to Syrian rebels. The presence of a proper security detail would have jeopardized the operation by attracting unwanted attention. Those involved in the Benghazi operation had to have known the inherent risks. Having said that, I believe it is criminal that our “leaders” didn’t have a contingency plan in place to quickly evacuate our people when things went bad and our “leaders” should be held accountable for their dereliction of duty. That’s on top of their illegal arms running.
