HOUSE COMMITTEE HEARING ON BENGHAZI ATTACK

[no-to-illegals]

WOW. What a statement. Will Be In Our Bunkers, and You’all Will Not Know Much of Anything. WOW.

[ILS21R]

Look behind you

Obama: He keeps us out of war by befriending our enemies and decapitating our military and abandoning our allies.....but we are “at peace” with everybody. /Sarc

[Mouton]

Patraeus is going to testify too. Any odds on how much is testimony will differ from the deputy’s! Deal is cut. When he met with der leader, he probably cut a deal....no prosecution for adultry in exchange for no courts marshall.

[no-to-illegals]

See it works.

[Leep]

is everyone under Oath and therefore can be charged for lying?

Something I read that I've not seen mentioned on any media outlet. When the seals called for help, any help that wasn't already in Libya (like the CIA resources in Tripoli) would require something called "Cross Border Authorization." This is required before any US military (such as the AC-130 standing by in Italy) can cross the border of a country with which we're not at war. As I was told, only the President can issue this authorization. If this is true (perhaps someone with Special Ops background could clarify) then the responsibility for the death of our Seals lies entirely with the President.

After four years of watching the liar-in-chief, it is obvious that he is more than just inept and lazy, he is a the puppet of someone, some small group, which has very large plans, a globalist agenda for the world.

Since we know the leadership of muzzie world is completely corrupt, the globalist power at the top of the hidden heap believe they can manipulate the caliphate to go along with the global agenda. That is an erroneous assumption, IMHO, but there it is. Israel stands in the way of the caliphate, so the gloablist at the top are setting the stage to end Israel. And Jews in Americxa continue to vote for the puppets of these globalist masters, because the enem euphemistically known as the media refuse to air the truth of what is now becoming clear to those paying attention without the mainstream propaganda fools.

The real wildcard at this stage is not America or even Israel, it is China, and the collapse of the American economy and then the rest of the Western economies will collapse China's power around the globe, especially where their surrogates are working in South America and Africa.

Just checked there,....Sen Barry Sanders was on the house channel,....The Senate channel was in recess playing classical music and the Today in Washington channel had nancy Pelosi.....

And the Foxnewstream is responding for me....

Well back to web browsing!

ILS21R,

Is some cameraman being distracting?

Is he fidgeting?

Scratching his nose too much?

[Irenic]

Well that was short. They seemed to be laughing when they wrapped up. Glad they think this is funny.

[no-to-illegals]

I think name tags are the key. Hidden back-thread.

[TurboZamboni]

and why was the ambassador to the UN sent out to answer questions on this weeks ago rather than the head of the CIA or State Dept?

[SE Mom]

It’s my understanding that anytime one testifies before Congress they are under oath- but have read differing accounts this week as to whether Petraeus was when he told Congress “it was the video”...

[NormsRevenge]

Et Tu, Petraeus?

the old adage still holds true..

To the victor, uhh go the spoils..

[MinuteGal]

There's 26 Republicans and 18 Dems on this committee.

I can see by the list of GOP names that this is the third string....getting experience and face time. Some are rather dim bulbs.

The first string of Representatives will appear when the main actors are interrogated, like the General and Hitlery....if they show up before this particular committee which is doubtful.

I think it's the Foreign Affairs (or Foreign Relations) committee that was doing the meeting today....and a meeting which I heard nothing, nada about on TV last night, not even Fox.....hmmmm.

They'll certainly have a lot of "affairs" or "relations" to wade through....and they won't be foreign.

Ok ..... I’m moving along ..... WHOA! It’s about sex??!! I think I’ll stay and see what happens.

Who is “Mr. F?”

[RockyTx]

what were the military options for help?
against the terrorists mortar team..

Kamakazie the unarmed drone.
Send jets from north Italy,
which would take 4 hours or so.

or something else?
