Did Valerie Jarrett Issue the Order to Stand Down in Benghazi?

August 06, 2013

BEGIN TRANSCRIPT

RUSH: There is a somewhat shocking report that I came across today at a website run by Doug Ross. It's called the Conservative Report. Doug Ross maintains here that Valerie Jarrett gave the orders to stand down in Benghazi. Valerie Jarrett, who constitutionally is not in the chain of command and cannot do that. And that's why this, if true, is a bombshell. Valerie Jarrett nixed the raid on bin Laden three separate times, remember, and the adults had to come in and basically act on the intel that they had as to where bin Laden was. It was Valerie Jarrett who put off three separate times an attack to either capture or kill bin Laden.

It was Panetta and Hillary and some others, apparently, who just finally overruled her and started the operation. They pulled Obama off the golf course for the photo op-ed, after the event had already begun. But Doug Ross is saying here: "Confidential sources close to Conservative Report have confirmed that Valerie Jarrett was the key decision-maker for the administration, the night of the Benghazi terrorist attack on 9/11/2012. The chronology of the evening of 9/11 are as follows:

"At approximately 5 PM Washington time, reports came in through secure-channels that Special Mission Benghazi was under attack. Secretary of Defense, Leon Panetta and Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, General Martin Dempsey summoned the President, and briefed him on the crisis, face to face." And remember, this is the meeting where Obama is reported to have said to both -- well, actually all three, Panetta, Martin Dempsey, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs, and Hillary. "You guys do what you have to do," and he vanishes. This is the best intel that we've got. And the story for the longest time, "Where was Obama?" Because he was off the grid for the next seven hours. Nobody knew where he was. And, remember, throughout all of this, we're all asking, "Who issued the order to stand down?" Because that can only come from the top.

I don't know how many times that I made the statement on this program, "The secretary of defense cannot order people to stand down. The secretary of defense cannot order, on the other hand, forces from, say, Italy to enter the theater and engage. That has to come via the chain of command. That has to come from the top, and the top in this case is Obama, not an aide." So if this is true, this really, really is a bombshell.

What Obama is ultimately going to say is that Military leaders did not believe that a CBA would have been effective/on time, so it was never requested of Obama to make the order.

If that was going to be his excuse, and it's a really lame excuse, I think it would have been used already. Like last October.

As far as an A-10 in Tripoli I don't think there was one. I have never seen any report confirming that.

How does the POTUS go off grid and vanish? Is this possible? Was he hiking the Appalachian Trail? Please explain!

“How does the POTUS go off grid and vanish? Is this possible?”

He doesn’t. We have a direlect government and media who are BOLDLY defying the American public with - “we WON’T tell you where he was... and there’s NOTHING you can do about it!...”

"And when she's not making policy decisions while I'm golfing,
vacationing, or getting blitzed on my Teeter Hang-up,
Valerie directs IRS targeting of those who do not worship me,
and oversees our joint offshore holdings of federal funds."

Excellent post, makes perfect sense.

Woods would not have painted the target unless he knew capable air assets were nearby and most assuredly en route given the situation.

In this scenario, no CBA was required, but someone kept that gunship grounded.

At 5:00, Dempsey and Panetta brief the president on the attack.
Obama leaves for dinner in the residence wing.
Obama, then has a two hour telephone conversation with Netanyahu.
VJ is with Obama during the phone call.
VJ goes to the situation room.

What kind of leader, goes to dinner, has a two hour phone call, then sends a senior adviser to call the shots, after getting briefed that an Ameican consulate is under attack? A leader who is distancing himself from a situation he knew was going to happen, and wiping his fingerprints off the gun.

For some time now the word on the street has been that the de facto POTUS is Valerie Jarrett...the johnny-come-lately's just now admitting Obama leans hard towards Marxism and appears loyal towards Islam and in spite of the race card being shoved in faces that disagree with Barry, America was fooled into putting into the White House twice, a man not fit to be POTUS in any way at all.

Remember the “soccer game” incident during his first term. It wasn’t long - but he did briefly shake them

Valerie Jarrett is the offspring of two CPUSA adults and makes no effort to hide it. Her traitorous activities qualify her for execution and should be performed as soon as possible. Those that support her should also be dealt with severely and proportionally to their acts of treason.

Do not forget that Jarrett nixed the. Bin Laden raid on 3 occasions before Panetta & Hillary went around her to do the deed.

She also said there would be payback after Obama’s reelction.

This may be part of that payback. She has her way and who is gone and who remains.

Panetta and Hillary are gone and Jarette remains!!!

Thoughts????

I don’t doubt that Val Jar had a part in Benghazi, but I do believe that Clinton and her cronies have been looking for an opportunity to get at Val Jar. This modern day Rasputin has had it coming for a long time. She doesn’t realize how powerful the Clinton syndicate is.
