The Scandal In Libya: On the night Bengazi burned and four Americans died, forces ready to deploy were told to stand down and our secretary of state cut out of the loop her department's counter-terrorism bureau.
Few people know who Gregory Hicks and Mark Thompson are, but then nobody knew who John Dean was when he testified at the Watergate hearings and blew the Nixon administration and its coverup out of the water.
"I thought it was a terrorist attack from the get-go," says Hicks, the U.S. deputy chief of mission in Libya on that fateful night.
"I think everybody in the mission thought it was a terrorist attack from the beginning," he says and reportedly will repeat when he testifies before the House Oversight Committee of Rep. Darrell Issa on Wednesday.
Yet, also from the get-go, Secretary Clinton seemed determined to put that possibility out of her mind and the mind of everyone else.
Thompson, a former Marine and the current deputy coordinator for operations in the agency's counterterrorism bureau, will make the allegation that Clinton "tried to cut the department's own counterterrorism bureau out of the chain of reporting and decision making" as State responded to the Benghazi attacks.
From the testimony of Hicks and Thompson, it is clear that Secretary Clinton didn't want to know or admit it was a terrorist attack, the only possible reason being that it wouldn't fit the administration's narrative of a victory over al-Qaida in a war on terror that was now over. It would hurt the president she served and possibly her own presidential chances in 2016.
Thompson considers himself a whistle-blower whose account was suppressed by the official investigative panel — the Accountability Review Board — that Clinton convened to review the episode.

The Dixie Mafia rolled over for Obie in 2008. They won’t go down so easily this time.
“Chicago mob can field their own successor to Obama”
Rahm Emanuel is ready for the job. He needs something more challenging after doing so well in CHicago.
Yeah, well, Rush ‘the moderate mouth’ Limbaugh spent lots of time on the homo basketballer rather than discuss Boston, Benghazi, or other loss of our sovereignty stories. The regime’s intimidation of people is vast.
He’ll be waggin the dog within a week
Yep, you bet it was. What I want to know is does Lt. Col. Tony Shaffer’s source still stand by that and can we get him/her to testify to it? We already have SecDef Panetta on record, under oath, saying that 0beezle never once got back to him after the initial conversation they had. Did they stand side by side in the Situation Room and 0wheedler was silent while Panetta made no recommendations at all?
The end result of these hearings should be the appointment of a special prosecutor to find out who knew what and when under oath including the President and Hillary.... This coverup stinks worse than any scandal, a President allowing Americans to die without calling in military support all for political reasons, what has become of America? I have never been more embarassed to call myself an American than I am right now, Obama owes the entire nation an appology and he should resign his office but that would take some shred of a conscious and I am afraid that evil man has none...

Maybe. It depends ... depends upon how soon the banking oligarchs will collpase the world’s economy and thus America. They may not be looking at the 2014 and 2016 elections because they know a date certain when they will have brought about the ultimate chaos in America, where martial law will ignore elections to the wail of the sheeple begging for militarized intervention to protect them and feed them and get their lights back on. America hasn’t got a chance if the banking oligarchs decide to hit the reset button. And impeaching and removing little barry bastard boy will be the last thing on people’s minds while roving bands of murderers roam the streets of suburbia.
RUH ROH! One of the whistle blowers has my name.
BRING IT....bring iiiiiiiiiit.

Sadly, I’m old enough now that I think we will never get this nation back from the scum and villainy until the reset happens. Unfortunately, the reset is the traditional way the banking oligarchy takes greater control of nations. There isn’t much left for them to take now, except the whole damned planet. I truly fear for my grandkids. The way things are going, they have no future they can depend upon.
I believe the media is thinking Moochelle in 2016.
The reasons were much darker and more sinister than that. This is what is frustrating me to no end about this.
Anyone wanting on or off this ping list, please advise.
The media continues to kiss and cover 0bama’s ass.
I agree. Alinsky’s rule of pretending to agree with your enemy.
