Presidential hopeful Newt Gingrich on Friday called on Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta to resign, rebuking him for telling a congressional panel that the U.S. would seek international permission before intervening in the ongoing bloodshed in Syria.
I have been told that the secretary of defense has suggested that international agreements override the Congress, Gingrich told supporters in Gulfport, Mississippi. If he believes that, he should resign tonight.
Responding to a statement that the U.S. was placing military resolutions of the United Nations, NATO and the Arab League ahead of those made by Congress, Panetta told the Senate Armed Services Committee on Wednesday: "You know, our goal would be to seek international permission.

The sadder thing is that Congress will be ok with this.
“Panetta knows better. He should resign.”
This is a totally planned takeover of the US from the alien status of the creepinchief, to the plant of fluke, to the submission of hussein and company to the third world order of the UN. How can this country be so blind?
While Newt is at it...he should demand Holders resignation too....
I'm thinking more along the lines of dragged out, tarred, feathered and left for the mother loving rats.
This is right wing phoney baloney.
Newt conveniently forgets/ignores and you conveniently forget/ignore that George Bush had to get permission from the UN before invading Iraq. You have conveniently forgotten that SoS Powell had to grovel before the UN General Assembly to get the UN Mandate.
Then because Bush and the NeoCons had major problem in Iraq the US had to ask the UN to extend the Mandate TWICE.
And eventually, the UN said no more extensions and Bush was forced get permission from Iraq to stay longer, which was the Status of Forces Agreement that Bush negotiated with Iraq and signed.

They are indeed flaunting it.....taunting might be a better word.
How I see it through my Johari Window.
IT’s not just World dictatorship, which will happen as things go chaotic, but Zero is making sure America is not even in the running for asserting any voice at all.
The Panetta precedent Congress lets fly is going to let the UN declare war on the US and the congress will stay mum when Obama joins the US government with the UN forces.
This is the RINO stupidity, democrate retardation and Obama “leadership” by proxy in action.
OH, and, IRONY, we are reducing our nukes to less than that China with the Soviets right behind rearming...
ANybody not wake up in Congress? THis is utterly ridiculous. ANd Romney is a fracking joke.
BTW Newt G. should be carefull about another intervention in Syria He would appear ,like Obama, as the supporter of the islamist revolutions in the arab world .
I should better think twice before taking warrior postures.
Since the beginning Obamas has supported, or/and fueled, the islamist revolutions from behind the scene....
Okay. Pick up your guns. Go shoot someone. Get tossed in jail and then drugged to death. DO YOU REALLY think people are going to turn to armed rebellion?? Won’t happen. Way too many people have their lives tied up in a job, government money, government hand outs. We have an internal civil war and it will be total destruction. Millions of deaths because there will be nothing to support people. It will never happen. This ain’t 1862 any more. If you think you can change it with a gun, you are badly wrong. I am a gun owner. Had them for 50 years. But, I don’t think saying we will take up arms and rebel against the government is going to accomplish anything. It will never happen. On top of that, as soon as we start killing each other, our outside enemies will join in the killing fest to quicker bring the nation down.
The process has been hijacked by bad lawyers. Technical people have access to parts of the weapon, but those putting the weapon together and wielding it are usualy the retards in power these days, ultimately.
It’s a matter of being a friend of a system, and until people do not trust each other as friends of it, they won’t get together to get the very few communists who are in charge and have hijacked the media morale giving Goebelian “sergeants” manipulators of liberals and the courts of opinion.
That is notwithstanding the mess of being so liberal that we do not see things like Islam actualy preventing CAtholics from having institutions of sanctity of virginity of men, women and children, genuinely protected to serve purposes higher than the lower perversions. This shame irks liberals.
What we need is a new “lebens-raum” discussion, not one about actual territories, but one based in genuine uncorrupted intelligence and undebauched spirituality of life in service. That sort of “mental space” and vision is shrinking rapidly in the US and the economy is going to tank world wide as a result.
Manning the stations against the barbarians here and about can come about if the right saving language can be applied and cause an organization.

We the People will deal with this enemy as we have done in the past...we're Americans. We fight for the Constitution, our Freedom, our Liberty, OR we will lose it. Every war had its huge obstacles to be overcome, and we have ours.
You deal with it your way. We who will not lay down on our backs, or kneel down on our knees to socialism/marxism/communism/fascism/revolutionaries will take it from here, and get ‘er done. With God's help, AND our will to save this country, we can WIN.
Tell me something pal. When did you spill your blood for this country? When? I have. Till you have, shut your fat trap. Simple as that!
Don’t try to go off all tough guy on me, pal. Many of us have spilled our blood for this country, and we may have to once again. But, whether we have or not, We the People have the right to speak up for our beliefs, and for our country.
This is why I like Newt. He is the only candidate who will say things like this.
In other words, no. You are simply a big mouth who spouts off how tough you are. Right. Big man. Go away you bore me sissy.
From the mouth of a man who stated, “It is here, There is nothing we can do about it. We humans are simply out numbered.”
YOU, sir, are outnumbered. We the People see it differently. May God bless America and the people who will fight to keep her free.
Thanks so much for saving me the time to hunt those articles which I have read before. I intend to share them again..
