Interestingly enough, the head of Africa Command at the time of Benghazi has also been recalled and replaced.
Raben.

The Navy. You know, they have ships and stuff.
Disobeyed an order to nuke Pakistan?
The information I heard today was that General Ham as head of Africom received the same e-mails the White House received requesting help/support as the attack was taking place. General Ham immediately had a rapid response unit ready and communicated to the Pentagon that he had a unit ready.It appears the US Navy has borrowed the concept of a "political Officer" from the old Soviet Union.General Ham then received the order to stand down. His response was to screw it, he was going to help anyhow. Within 30 seconds to a minute after making the move to respond, his second in command apprehended General Ham and told him that he was now relieved of his command.
Don't be surprised it Obama emulates his hero and purges 1/3 of the military high command.
Made it to AP. Everyone will have this story by Monday.
The uniformed warriers in the Department of Defense must be bat shit about what happened in Libya. They will make their displeasure known.
Working its way into the reluctant lamestream.

God help this great nation. Tell everyone above 18 that is breathing to get in to vote for R/R. We must save our country.
Information should be sent to Drudge, Breitbart etc. Then it’s up to us to get the material out on tritter, facebook and email. WE THE PEOPLE are now the press.

” - - - WE THE PEOPLE are now the press. “
Very true.
Whatever are they trying to get away with, I think they will not succeed.
There’s also a replacement of Gen. Joseph F. Dunford, USMC, from NATO Forces in Afghanistan. Two O-10’s and an O-7 - what other Flag-ranks are getting kicked?
Strike that - read it wrong. Gen. Allen is being replaced by Dunford.
Amazing how life imitates art sometimes, eh?
Mrs Moonhawk and I really enjoy that show.
One of the first things President Romney should do is reinstate Gen. Ham to his command or even promote him.

"Gimme Ham on 5, hold the mayo."
The instant they cleave to their Oath to protect and defend The Constitution against all enemies foreign and domestic.
(Obama is in the unique position of being an enemy who is BOTH foreign and domestic!)
First General Ham now this Admiral.....you know what is happening, OBAMA IS CONDUCTING A COUP! THERE WAS A DAMN MUTINY AGAINST OBAMA/LIBYA MESS.
WE NEED TO START KEEPING A LIST.
Perfect! Well played, sir, well played...
2 Generals and 1 Admiral.....thats a mutiny folks. MUTINY IN LIBYA.....THIS IS GONNA BREAK LIKE A SPLASH OF SKUNK SPRAY ALLOVA ALLOVA ALLOVA!
Yup, we have to be the press, thank God for FreeRepublic, the internet and talk radio!
p.s. See my tagline...

Had no doubt, and still have no doubt. There are Men and Women, at the top of our Military, who still believe. God Bless Them! and please, God, if you can find the time, Protect and Bless our Men and Women in Uniform with Victory. Am in prayer for You Lord to bring that victory. In Jesus Name. Amen.
He follows orders.......he got none! so for political face saving that won’t work they through him under the bus too.
If what you say is true, this man is a hero.

Rumors Gen Carter Ham relieved of command over Benghazi NOT true, according to multiple well placed sources. Long planned change of command.

Bret Baier @BretBaier
multiple sources incldg Gen Ham himself say the report that he was relieved of his cmd over Benghazi, or anything else, are NOT true - 1/2.
Music to my ears.
or the "Minutemen" of 2012 ... one if by land, and two if by sea ...
The Zampolits have been there for some time. Obama’s just accelerating the process.
All the better. Let’s press on.
All the better. Let’s press on.
Instapundit now says this story about the admiral untrue as well.
I thought it would be a joke until I started watching episodes online. I love Andre Braugher as Captain Chaplin.
Been thinking about this. I hope he does (as long as he doesn't put bullets in the back of their necks as his hero did). He'll have created an instant military high command for . . . who knows? Someone out there might need them.
LOL
Sounds like someone just got the journalistic version of an Atomic Wedgie over this.
All we need to confirm every internet rumor (and some that haven’t made it there yet) is for WaPo/NYSlime to join in this little chorus./xxl sarc

Who’s in command of the QE3?

Please God, inspire them to uphold their Oath to protect and defend the Constitution against all enemies foreign and domestic.
Today the government denied rumors that _____...
GOOD THING YOU ASKED!!! MY APOLOGIES STRAIGHT UP!!! The General who had been under investigation was 4 star Kip Ward who Ham replaced.
Asking mod to remove previous post!
No worries.
Just like umpiring: Ego ain’t as important as getting the damn call right.
Let’s just hope Rush is all over this tomorrow. This is one of the biggest coverups I can recall ever.
