Maybe the REAL thing they are trying to hide is that Obama did go to bed and it was really Valerie Jarrett calling the shots.
That would make Obama actually look like a puppet who is allowed to take outrageous vacations and play golf all the time, while an unelected person is making all the decisions in Obama's name, without Obama's involvement or participation.
THAT would make people step back and ask why Obama is even there, if others are doing all the work.
This wouldn't be a case of an "executive" President (like Reagan was reported to be) who actively lays out strategic parameters and let's his subordinates work out the actual details. This would be a case of a completely disengaged President who is not participating in the daily rigors of the job.

The order to stand down had to be given because only the CIC can order a military action across an international boarder. Because the CIC went to bed and put up a don not disturb sign on the door.
Because forces were automatically deployed they had to be given a stand down order because no CIC was present to allow them to complete the mission.

Nail on the head!! I think that’s exactly what happened and a large part of why they tried so hard to make it go away. It would look really bad to find out that Emperor Barry’s puppet strings are being pulled by someone else ... by an unelected aide with no real chain-of-command authority ... but with strong connections to Iran....
I have no doubt about that, after all the next day was *Party, Party* in Vegas.
Lazy bum with only "Me, Me, Me" on his mind, as proven time after time.
From then on it was cover up, cover up, then cover up the cover ups.
The whole thing snowball out of control from his original dereliction of duty.
Impeachable every step of the way, beginning to end.
Toensing and diGenova were talking about this last night on Rivero. There is a period of time that evening when Obama's whereabouts are not accounted for-i.e. the log of his whereabouts has not been released.
Could be. If so it needs to come out.
