THE US government secretly advised Scottish ministers it would be "far preferable" to free the Lockerbie bomber than jail him in Libya.

Correspondence obtained by The Sunday Times reveals the Obama administration considered compassionate release more palatable than locking up Abdel Baset al-Megrahi in a Libyan prison.

Well, I never had any doubt that Obama admin approved. The only reason Chucky cheesy Schumer and a few others are pretending to be outraged is because they worried the truth might come out.

Unless Fox News runs this OVER and OVER again ad nauseum, the Drive-by’s will ignore yet another IN-OUR-FACE-LIE from BO.

This may be something that finally blows up in his ugly mug.

If this news isn’t a major Republican TV ad in the next campaign cycle, my checkbook will remain slammed shut as far as the GOP is concerned. Sometimes things get handed to you on a silver platter, and if you are too stupid to take advantage you deserve to remain a loser.

The news about this crew in the WH just keeps getting uglier and uglier.

Thank you, Obama. My friend’s fiance died on that plane. I’ll never forget the days following the bombing. I’ll never forget her funeral. I’ll never forget how deeply my friend grieved.

Of course he approved. A high profile terrorist responsible for the deaths of so many Americans would never be released without consultation with the US government.

The proof is on the pudding as they say and the White House pudding is getting awfully interesting.
Now we find out the real truth that Obama and his fellow Travelers not only gave the Okay but probably helped orchestrate this travesty to begin with.
What we are seeing is one sell out after another to Terrorism, National Security and our Military.
Obama seems to know no bounds as to the Treasonous acitivites he is engaging in.

Mr Obama described the release of the Lockerbie bomber as “heartbreaking”. “I think all of us here were surprised, disappointed and angry about the release of the Lockerbie bomber,” he said.

The bus is being warmed up in the basement of the state department, target the minister in London who wrote the letter. Obviously he did not do it with the approval of either the commie king or his red queen at state.
