Benghazi issue won't go away or be resolved very soon
Los Angeles Times ^ | October 30, 2012 | James Rainey

............The Obama administration has some explaining to do. With four Americans dead overseas, their fellow citizens rightly want to know why they couldn't have been protected. But the answers will not fit neatly, or in time, to make 30-second campaign ads. And there may be new revelations but definitive answers can't be expected before election day.

LA Times has endorsed Obama for President. Again. Their opinion on this subject is hearby rejected.

And if Romney wins, he'll just want to be a gentleman and let bygones be bygones.

Actually, I don't think so. That was Bush's mistake, and I don't see Romney repeating it.

Mitt is probably going to be a lot more aggressive, a lot more involved, a lot more critical, caustic, and unforgiving of the sheer incompetence of the previous years than Bush ever was. Quite frankly, for his Presidency to have any chance of succeeding, he will have to be.

Of course, a lot of it will depend on the makeup of Congress after he is sworn in, but make no mistake, there will be a reckoning.

We won’t let it and I think maybe there should be a national protest after Romney is elected. Maybe Thanksgiving weekend...or thereabouts where we remind Romney that we will not allow him to let a traitor wa free and that we want a full and open investigation into the matter.

National Protest - anyone??

Remember, when OFasto Furiouso loses on Nov 6, he has to be thinking about whether or not he will be indicted for running guns to the drug cartels into Mexico. He has to be thinking of a way to escape severe punishment.

I think he will step down somewhere between Nov 7 and Jan 20 so that Joe Biden can give him, WithHolder and Hildebeast a pardon.

National Protest? If I have to fly out from California on Thanksgiving weekend, too short notice for airfare, which would cost a couple thousand.

How about the day before the Inauguraton? Everyone will be there anyway. Airfare substantially cheaper in January.

That could work. I was thinking of something more along the lines of protests in major cities but maybe both methods could be used.

everyone here says they are serious about having the Traitor prosecuted so that’s a great start. here’s time to work something out.

Maybe the local protests can take place on Black Friday. and the national one in C as you say.

but this idea will need to be spearheaded by someone who is a good organizer and leader. That I am not.

I’m just putting the idea out there and I’m happy to contribute to the effort.

More and more I see Bush, and his appointees such as Rice, as the GREAT DECEIVER.

I hope you’re right. It’s true that one of Bush’s biggest mistakes was his failure to pursue any of Clinton’s misdeeds and mismanagement, which essentially only emboldened the Dems. I know that he thought that because of the controversy over the election, he was defusing tensions, etc. But the Dems just saw it as weakness, and they virtually spat in his face.

I’m sure Romney wouldn’t want to get bogged down in this, but as you say, if he wants to succeed, he’s going to have to restore some semblance of functionality to our government. Obama has gone beyond Clinton, whose incompetence and mischief generally didn’t make it to structural matters, and has destroyed or weakened some of our very governmental structures and concepts. And if Romney wants to restore them, he is probably going to have to act like a serious corporate hatchetman.

Or employ one. Or several. In fact, I would not be surprised if there are already names in place.

Bush... now I liked the guy, but the fact is that he really didn’t seem prepared for winning the first time around. The transition was slow and sloppy. There were far too many holdovers from the Clinton years who were allowed to remain in place and disrupt his policies by means of passive resistance.

Mitt knows all about how that works and if he is anywhere near as smart as I think he is, he already has people hard at work identifying every single political appointment he can make, and is lining up candidates and alternates for each. There will be no holdovers to throw sneaky monkey wrenches into the works.

This is particularly true of the Justice Department and all of the US Attorneys. Of course, the Democrats will scream bloody murder about it — at which time he will calmly point out that Clinton did the exact same thing.

In any event, it must be done. Justice needs a total housecleaning, as does the EPA. He’s probably going to have to spend a full day or more, simply rescinding every single one of the wet-dream EPA regs that the Enviro-nazis have inflicted on the nation, not to mention all of the blatantly unconstitutional executive orders.

It would also be a good idea to have a full exorcism performed on the White House, just to be on the safe side.
