CURL: You don’t mess with the CIA
Washington Times ^ | October 28, 2012 | Joseph Curl, covered the White House and politics for a decade for The Washington Times

You know who doesn’t like getting thrown under the bus? The CIA. You know what the CIA does when you try to throw it under the bus? They get even — quickly, quietly, and with fatal consequences.

That seems the most logical explanation for the torrent of information pouring out this week (unless Hillary Rodham Clinton — also thrown under the bus by President Obama — is scrapping any chance of ever running for president again and is simply setting the whole administration on fire, along with her legacy as secretary of state).

The main lesson from Watergate (after the no-brainer that you should never hire a guy named “Tricky Dick”) was this: The Cover-Up Is Worse Than The Crime. For some reason, Professor Obama seems not to know this crucial lesson. Or he’s just arrogant enough to say, “Well, that doesn’t apply to someone as brilliant as moi.”

Make no mistake, though: There is a massive cover-up under way in the White House. Nothing else can explain the endless contradictions over the attack that left the U.S. ambassador to Libya and three other Americans dead. The White House already has had to rewrite the entire narrative once, holding a late-night conference call with reporters just before a House hearing two weeks ago in which State Department officials told a whole new tale: There was no “spontaneous” protest over some anti-Islam video posted on YouTube. Instead, there were dozens of heavily armed terrorists who poured over a 9-foot-high fence covered with barbed wire to attack America on 9/11.

Last week, Mr. Obama told another bald-faced lie when he declared at the presidential debate that he had termed the attack “terrorist” in a Rose Garden address the next day. He did no such thing; in fact,.......

In this case, the Crimes of this Administration will prove to be infinitely worse than the Cover-up, which in itself is humongous. This may have started as a political scandal — worried about re-election, so Barry and his minions scuttled any escalation of the “situation.” Hillary probably advised Obama to hunker down just like she and Bill did with their multitude of scandals (TWA-800 comes to mind).

The Press is supposed to find out what happened - Govt.pronouncements mean nothing if not corroborated by the Independent Media, of which there are still a few around on tv, more on radio, and even more in the blogosphere.

Great Post! Nothing really new, but it does put the CIA situation in perspective and I agree, ultimately, they’ll get even.

Hillary is the name never uttered. Her man dead, her mission house, her dept., her LIVE streaming film, her security rejections, her smart power, her light footprint, her lie on the “video” protest, and her foot draging Pickering (Arab sympathizer) investigative commission, and curiously her absence from anything occurring during that seven hours.

The name no one mentions— Hillary Clinton

The voters need to wake up to the fact that any democrat is an enemy combattant.

General Dempsey went out and did the video drama lie for the press, too.

Petraus and Dempsey want to violate the constitution by imposing Sharia speech control in the US. Meanwhile, Americans who defend the constitution from such a meat grinder are classified as domestic terrorists.

Treasonous jerks in power.

And yet, the election is close. The election is a mere days away; how much longer can the so-called main-stream media keep the lid on this?

From a thread from Oct 6th.

“Lol, blame the intelligence community. That’s going to go over real well as they generally don’t like being scape goats. Que the intelligence community leaks.”

Wrong to assume the global leftists, citizens of the world, at the CIA will get even with Republicans or Obamaites.

They are probably angry that the Republicans are putting a spotlight on their Muslim Brotherhood “rebel” gun running and bum kissing operations over there. CIA loves those radical, moderate Muzzies.

In the world of political correctness, to care about Americans is racist and Nationalistic! “We are the world” is the CIA mantra and Petraus came out violating the constitution to impose Shaia speech controls on Americans. Whats the US constitution and National interests mean to globalists who fancy themelves global rulers?

I'd like to hear the testimony of General Carter Ham, the Commander of US Africa Command. As the senior combatant commander over Libya, General Ham answers to only two men in the chain of command - the Secretary of Defense and the President. Ham's Stuttgart headquarters was monitoring the situation in real time and mobilizing rescue options based upon established contingency plans. There were many powerful options at the general's disposal, and there was plenty of time to implement them. The wheels were in motion until somebody stopped them.

There were only two men in the chain of command senior to General Ham. So who ordered General Ham to stand down? It was either Leon Panetta or Barack Obama. Paging General Ham...
