White House gave Kathryn Bigelow access to SEAL Team 6 commander, CIA 'vault'
Entertainment Weekly ^ | 5/23/12 | Hillary Busis

Posted on 05/23/2012 10:46:02 AM PDT by Nachum

In January, the Pentagon began investigating whether the White House had shared classified information with Kathryn Bigelow, director of an upcoming film about the search for Osama bin Laden. Now, conservative watchdog organization Judicial Watch has obtained records that reveal President Obama’s Defense Department did provide Bigelow and screenwriter Mark Boal access to high-level information and resources — including a “planner, Operator and Commander” of the Navy SEAL team that successfully captured and killed bin Laden last year. A Department of Defense meeting

There was a time when this would have resulted in a lot of people going to Federal prison (including folks in the administration).

I wonder how much Bigelow or one of her “people” paid the Obama campaign for this access. You know they didn’t get it for nothing.

How does this information affect those of you who will not vote for Romney? We are in agreement about Romney’s policies being liberal, but do you believe that Romney would betray our elite forces the way Obama has?

I’m not looking for a fight about your refusal to vote for Romney. I just want to know if this information makes you hesitate about your decision.

Oh, hey, it’s not like a bunch of SEALs from the same unit got killed after that.

Oh, never mind. They did.

The director and screenwriter also took advantage of unique access to the U.S. Navy's Seal Team Six--thanks to the assistance of Democratic Party lobbyists, who were supposed to have been kept far away from the Obama White House, but have continued playing a major role in the administration:
The records also show that Bigelow and Boal were allowed to meet with one of the raid’s planners from Seal Team Six and were escorted through a high-security facility at CIA headquarters dubbed “The Vault.”

The CIA and Pentagon visits were arranged by The Glover Park Group, a Democratic lobbying group with close ties to many White House officials.

Obama the Traitor and undocumented Tyrant
is ONLY pRes_ _ent because Mitt Romney attacked
Gov. Palin on the EVE of Election 2008.
Has Romney apologized for this atrocity?

FLASHBACK:

The McCain/Palin ticket was up ++4 to 10 pts
in some polls, days prior to Election 2008.
So rather than helping the GOP, Romney and
TeamROMNEY and the RNME (Republican National Media Establishment)
decided …to attack Gov. Palin to throw Election2008.

Romney, and the Van der Sloot RNME RINOs for Obama in 2008

Late in October, The American Spectator's The Prowler revealed:
"Former Mitt Romney presidential campaign staffers…
have been involved in spreading anti-Palin spin to reporters, seeking to diminish her standing after the election.
'Sarah Palin is a lightweight, she won't be the first, not even the third, person people will think of when it comes to 2012,'
says one former Romney aide…
'The only serious candidate ready to challenge to lead the Republican Party is Mitt Romney.
"Some former Romney aides were behind the recent leaks to media, including CNN, that Governor Sarah Palin was a 'diva' and was going off message intentionally."


The Palmetto Scoop reported: "One of the first stories to hit the national airwaves was
the claim of a major internal strife between close McCain aides and the folks handling his running mate Sarah Palin."
"I’m told by very good sources that this was indeed the case and that a rift had developed, but it was between Palin’s people and the staffers brought on from the failed presidential campaign of former Gov. Mitt Romney, not McCain aides."
"The sources said nearly 80 percent of Romney’s former staff was absorbed by McCain and these individuals were responsible for what amounts to a premeditated, last-minute sabotage of Palin."
… aides loyal to Romney inside the McCain campaign, said The Scoop, reportedly saw
that Palin would be a serious contender for the Republican nomination in 2012 or 2016, which made her a threat to another presidential quest by Romney.


"These staffers are now out trying to finish her off ….hoping it would ingratiate themselves with Mitt Romney."


"Who's the Palin Leaker from the McCain Campaign?
National Review Online The publication of a Vanity Fair profile of Sarah Palin
appears to have opened old wounds in the McCain campaign.
... the source of the “Diva” leak was Nicolle Wallace’s husband."


"Peeking Out From the McCain Wreckage: Mitt Romney"

"Someone's got to say it: IS MITT ROMNEY RESPONSIBLE FOR OBAMA'S VICTORY?"

"Vanity: Team Romney Sabotaged Palin and Continuing to Do So?"

"Romney Supporters Trashing Palin"

"Romney advisors sniping at Palin?"

Romney should pull out now.

I will take your response as “No, it doesn’t make me hesitate.”

You aren’t suggesting that he actually wanted some dead SEALs for a photo op?

Just because he exposed their commander, and 30 were made to go on only one transport, what would give you that impression?

Spot on! This action is far more egregious than anything related to the “Plame Affair.”
