...or something.
Ross Limburger.
Fact Four:
Woodrow Wilson suffered a debilitating stroke and spent the last six months of his Presidency incapacitated. This fact was kept from all but a tight circle of confidants (a MSM reporter actually facilitated this by writing and publishing a fake interview indicating that Wilson was okay). During this time, Wilson’s wife, Edith, made all his decisions and acted basically as the de-facto President until Warren G. Harding was sworn in. Only years later did historians learn of this.
So, if it happened once...
You're right. However, it should be.
It certainly sounds like something the WH would have done but that's not enough for so much conjecture.
Obama has a record of utter unbelievability, but I don’t understand the point of your question unless you believe it is a viable conservative strategy to combat lies with lies.
I do not believe that this would be a good way to defeat Obama-ism and that is why I am asking about Ross’s history of credibility.
How high did he go? My guess he was incapacitated. One of the original comments was “0 was sleeping”. Those who have lived with an active addict knows that SLEEPING is code for passed out!
So, you’re saying that 0bamster was just stroking it?
Obama was in the White House the whole time.
So, what was he doing that evening?
Why would ANYONE else be making his decisions for him that night?
The key to Benghazi is what was Obama doing the night of September 11th?
When we know that, we will know what kind of people we really are by what our response is.
Where was Reggie Love that night?
A sleeping president can be awoken. No president is ever “unavailable”- surely their whereabouts are always known.
That leaves 3 scenarios for me...
1. He was in a “state” that could only resolved by time and sleep (alcohol? Drugs?-that sort of thing)
2. He slipped the Secret Service again (remember in the first term? When he allegedly ditched his detail to watch “soccer”?)
Or
3. He simply refused to deal with it. He voted “present” again and shrugged it off to Valerie or Panetta- or Hillary
Either way - we know he was not in the Situation Room or they would have released that photo prior to the election.
Yep, what you said. They just don’t give. Damn..
The nit picky difference is that Jarrett likely told the Sec-Def that “The Prez is NOT providing Cross Border Authority”
The net effect is the same as a “stand down” order, but there’s technical difference.
I hope BO is forced to acknowledge that is the thin reed he’s hiding behind.
lol. the hell she can’t!
She has been the invisible president all the while. She brought him to power in Illinois and took charge in D.C. He does not decide on anything without her input. She and Axelrod are the two most powerful people in the executive branch, unelected though they may be. Nbr. 3 is Michelle. Bambi runs a poor fourth.
Agreed, or Doug can go find another line of work.
obama was NOT asleep.
NOBODY goes to “sleep” at 5:30pm.
He needs to ACCOUNT for his whereabouts between 5pm and “bedtime”, whenever that might be.
I cannot believe congress can’t be bothered. They should be tarred and feathered and run OUT of DC.
We're of the same mind on this, it also allows him to say he [technically] did not give a stand down order.
Has Rush mentioned her lizardly dastardly simularities?
Legally. Since when has this bunch ever observed laws? I can easily imagine Jarrett giving an order like this.
