Trotta: Seal Team Raid Week Before Election?
Fox News Live | 10/14/12

Posted on 10/14/2012 8:52:35 AM PDT by pabianice

Liz Trotta on Fox News Channel. First, wondering why the Coprolite Press is ignoring the disappearance of Hillary since the slaughter of four Americans in the Libyan Consulate. Then surmising that Bill's continued support of Obama is contingent upon no one asking Hillary any embarrassing questions, which the Rancid Media of course honors. Finally, surmising that Obama's October Surprise will be a SEAL team raid in Libya a week or so before the election to bump his support.

I doubt it, Obama is risk adverse to have something go wrong and blow up in his face.

Just ask Jimmy Carter how a raid into the Middle East worked out for him.

Obama does think so little of the American people, he just might try such a trick. But I have a couple thoughts, which are just as valid as Liz Trotta's.

First, the SEALs might just find the conditions aren't acceptable for such a raid, and they may make an on-the-ground decision to stay put.

Second, the American people aren't so ignorant as to fall for a stunt.

Seriously, Obamugabe is trying to give out fake economic numbers, and the citizenry aren't buying it...so this would be a truly stupid move. Which means the Kenyan Clown will probably do it.

Wouldn’t change my vote one iota. This scumbag Obama will kill more Americans than 4 in the next 4 years.

His little O appointed rationing boards will see to that.

Maybe we should take over O care for awhile and appoint our hand picked rationing board as payback. LOL It would scare the crap out of them.

just kidding.

Obama's desperate "October Surprise" has already backfired on him on September 11 in Benghazi...

Obama set it up to take the consulate staff hostage....so he could "negotiate" their release in exchange for the Blind Sheik just before the elections.

If it happens and something goes wrong, it’ll be Hillary’s fault.

If the seals refuse it’ll be their fault for disobeying an order.

The majority have fallen for a 4 year stunt so much they want to make is an 8 year stunt.

Interesting take.

I guess it doesn’t work when the hostages are all murdered on the initial assault. Of course if you can blame it on a video that nobody in the world has ever seen you could try that. Hell, it worked with a birth certificate.

No, wait a minute, we’ll think of something else.

A “forced raid” could also go spectacularly wrong!
This was not necessarily forced, but Axe & Jarrett should ask Jimmy Carter how Desert One worked out for him! (They run the administration, Zero is there to golf and go on vacation.)

“I doubt it, Obama is risk adverse to have something go wrong and blow up in his face.”

“Obama’s desperate “October Surprise” has already backfired on him on September 11 in Benghazi...”

“Obama set it up to take the consulate staff hostage....so he could “negotiate” their release in exchange for the Blind Sheik just before the elections.”

I had not heard that take on it, spokeshave. How very interesting and in my view, plausible. Wonder if there is any corroborating evidence we can find to support it.

Hope there are no other “October Surprise Plans B, C, and D” in the offing.

Funny. I remember a similar attempt by Carter to look like a man...it didn’t go well then, I seriously doubt it will go well this time, either. That any MORE Americans might lose their lives for the sake of this man’s re-election makes my blood boil.

Your reason for the Benghazi tragedy is one of the best I have read.

I'm ashamed to say that has real credibility ... but then I thought the US had a long standing policy of never negotiating with terrorists or kidnappers

If it goes wrong, we will never hear about it. The media would cover it up until after the election.
