Republicans want to talk to Col. George Bristol about Benghazi
CBS News ^ | 7/5/13 | SHARYL ATTKISSON

Posted on 07/05/2013 9:47:51 AM PDT by ConservativeMan55

Marine Corps Col. George Bristol was in a key position in the U.S. Africa Command (AFRICOM) chain of command the night of the Sept. 11, 2012, attack on the U.S. consulate in Benghazi, Libya. As such, he's high on the list of people that some Republican members of Congress want to interview. But they don't know where he is and the Pentagon isn't telling.

I’ll say this.

There is something about Benghazi that scares the hell out of this Administration.

Enough that I think they intentionally “let out” all of those other scandals at once as to help provide cover for Benghazi.

Something REALLY stinks.

I will say what people on FR have been saying ever since the attack happened, this was a botched kidnapping.

Morsi and Obama planned the whole thing.

CBS is reporting this? Usually when CBS reports anti-Obama material I assume they’re doing it for Hillary.

But this won’t help either of them.

It’s not really CBS per se. It’s Sharyl.

The same Sharyl the Administration was spying on to find out what she knew about Benghazi.

Only the POTUS had the authority to act!

0bama was notified immediately and automatically when the Benghazi consulate triggered the "Imminent Danger Notification System" alert. He did nothing.

They confirm everything Col. Hunt said about automatic notifications to the WH and add more details.

There are three scandals here...

---------------------------------------------------------

Denial of prior requests for security were a dereliction of duty.

The lies and misdirection about the "video" after the attack were fraud and malfeasance under the color of authority.

The inaction during the attack was something more than that.

The failure to act during the attack is the direct equivalent of desertion IMO.

ONE man had the authority to act that night.

0bama refused to act!

She’s like a dog with a bone now.

Probably not a good idea to piss off the press.

He refused to act because he planned the whole thing.

Why not just put a target sign on his back?

Oh trust me it’s already there.

The Administration already got to this guy probably shortly after the attack.

They know what he knows. That’s why no one can find him!

The Pentagon “lost” a Marine Colonel? I thought they had all seeing, all knowing capabilities.

He’s retired.

They didn’t lose him. They are hiding him.

This one incident (even ignoring all the other shiite this regime is neck deep in) should rise to the Constitutional level of high crimes and misdemeanors.

Yep.

This would certainly explain why 0baMao refused to send help and tried to block anyone from trying to help.

Botched Kidnapping as a TRADE for the Blind Sheik....OR a WEAPONS RUNNING program to AL Queda by US!

I heard a Congresscritter on Weds. on Phil's Gang Radio Show, I THINK it was that PUNKASS Alan Grayson and P.A A.G. said that he was on the Intelligence (what a JOKE) Committee and Stevens was WELL AWARE of the Danger and he just wanted to be with the PEOPLE.....another bad joke.

Nope. Sure hope this Colonel is still breathing or hasn’t otherwise been compromised/threatened into clamming up.

Like one of the commenters said, how hard can it be to find a guy that gets a pension check every month?
