... the White House counsel's office reportedly knew about the Inspector General's investigation into harassment ofdconservative groups, since April. Davis contends that if this is true and Ms. Ruemmler chose not to inform President Obama of the investigation and the possible legal and political ramifications, she should step down.

A problem for Obama could be that sooner or later one or more of these scapegoats could provide testimony against him.

Team Clinton is on the move.

As much as I hate & despise the witch Hillary & her pervert husband Bubba.....if they can undermine & take down 0dumb0 before his he's done committing his final atrocity on Amerika, then at least I will be thankful for finally bursting 0dumb0's balloon, and getting that smug arrogant mug off of TV and hopefully into prison.

My understanding on Lani is that he is part of the Pakistan lobby. No U.S. money should be going to Pakistan.

He was cute....doing it a “Chicago or Mafia way”, in which he thought he would be safe above the fray. Ditto for the AP and Benghazi!!!

And it went all the way back to when Blagojoevich was left holding the bag with filling Obama's vacant Senate seat. Who still believes that Obama was not involved in that, except maybe Patrick Fitzgerald?

Don’t know about that, but it would make an interesting steel cage match.

I don't see it that way. Lanny Davis is a diehard HRC supporter and is probably making a preemptive strike against Obama, lest Obama try to pin Benghazi on HRC. What Lanny Davis did here was very clever: he pretended to take Obama at his word about not knowing about the IG report, and calls for the General Counsel to take the fall. But who knows if she will do this? Now there's pressure on both Obama to fire her and the woman to keep her mouth shut.

I posted almost the same thing a few seconds ago. I do not agree with the freepers who believe Lanny Davis was doing Obama any favors here.

I think things are going to get very interesting very soon...

We’re at the “what did he know and when did he know it stage.” Hopefully soon, we learn from one of those being thrown under the bus when he ordered it! :)

I think you are seeing this debacle much as I see it. Obama by instinct or information sees a political cloud on the horizon. He says or is instructed by his enablers e.g. Jarrett that something needs to be done to keep the rain out. Nothing said about how, what, or in this situation who. The servants go about carrying out the chiefs orders. Presumably, by some people, the chief had nothing to do with what the servants did.

Very, I’m afraid. Remember their motto, never let a crisis go to waste. It will take something pretty big to replace this in the news.

I’m still torn between this being a Clinton operation in retaliation for Barry trying to throw Hillary under the bus....or an Intel Op carried out by p*ssed off CIA folks over the same thing....or a Mossad distraction to keep Barry occupied while they bomb Teheran.

Oh, yeah. There's hell to pay.

Jimmy "The Snake" Carville yesterday, Lanny Davis today. The knives are out bigtime. It will be amusing to see 0bama butt-kissers such as Ezra Klein suddenly find themselves sitting at the kiddie table in the hallway wondering what the hell happened.

Bloodbath coming, and if it's suppressed until the 2014 elections it will only get worse. Hubris will do that.

Did Lanny inform Slick Willie to keep his pants on and zipped up and not to have White House interns under the desk?

I didn’t think so.
