FORGET OCTOBER, ANONYMOUS SOURCES SAY NOVEMBER SURPRISE IN THE WORKS
Breitbart ^ | 21 Oct 2012, 6:30 PM | AWR HAWKINS

Anonymous reports coming out of the Middle East indicate President Obama may be planning military action to take place in the days before the U.S. presidential election. Certain individuals currently deployed in various U.S. land, sea, and/or air missions in the Middle East are indicating they've heard about possibilities that could take place one to two days before the election: perhaps against Iran, perhaps elsewhere in the Middle East. These individuals have no idea what might be coming, but some of them indicate receiving upgraded clearances and travel documents that will allow them to move more easily between countries should something big take place in the region. When Gov. Romney began threatening to overtake Obama in the polls two weeks ago, various commentators wondered aloud whether Obama would use a military strike to try to show his toughness and bolster his numbers. And when Gallup showed a consistent 6-point lead for Romney last week, callers asked Rush Limbaugh if he thought such an attack-for-votes scheme were actually possible?

Might get a Wag the Dog slam response as well. Risky.

Can’t believe Israel would buy into a joint operation knowing that they are being used.

Why would they suppose this would HELP Obama? His base isn’t gung ho military...they might defend it, but it won’t make them run out to vote. It won’t change any minds on the right....they think bombing something is going to help with Indies?

I think it is more likely they’ll think he is trying to invent a surprise to overshadow the ECONOMY

If this election was about foreign policy, National security..maybe...but it isn’t.

Imagine if Obama starts a war with Iran right before the election, loses anyway, says “OK OK we’ve had enough.” Then Iran says “Well, we didn’t have enough.”

Don’t think it would benefit him at all. And remember that 40% of the votes are cast before election day.

The way to stop this is to loudly predict it. Rush, et al. should be on the air expecting an October/November surprise, so if it really happens, the effect will be that people recognize Obama killed people to get elected, not that he is a great leader.

Clinton attacked Iraq on the same day as Monica Lewinski's testimony, so yes, Obama would do it if he can get away with it.

No way will he do this. This would be way too transparent. Even the moonbats would see through this one.

They’ll stage a chem event in syria, dressed up as pro-Assad guys.

Or attack Turkey and blame it on Syria, thereby compelling NATO intervention.

I agree. I believe most will believe that Obama is doing it for political reasons if that should occur. I think that will backfire on him big time. Now the Obamaphone lady and her ilk will believe anything he says.

I’ve told you about my source in the Executive Office Building next to the White Hut. He/She (let’s not give away too much) sent me a note this evening saying that the November surprise is scheduled on the morning of November 8.

Seriously - everyone knows he “killed” Osama, pulling a stupid stunt will just piss people off.

National security threat needs to be real people !!

(I’m still mad we didn’t claim Iraq as a US territory - we won it damnit)

This goes completely against the news or rumored news that Obama somehow made some kind of deal with Iran to postpone their enrichment of plutonium and stop their nuclear program until after the election.

It could.

Many indies vote how they feel on election day. If there's a surge of theatrical machismo by Obama they may pull the lever for him purely out of emotion.

Yes, they are that clueless. Scary.

Leftists would go bonkers. Independents would totally see through it.
