Mike Lee “Hadn’t Been Briefed” But Obama Says “Trust Us”

Senator Mike Lee, held a press conference to say that they had not been briefed on the NSA phone metadata dragnet.
Okay, I’m starting to lean toward the “Obama has no idea what’s going on” side of the analysis.
He can’t be bothered with the details. He would rather play golf and vacation.
I think he truly doesn’t know a lot of this...
I also think that someone is throwing Obambi under the bus.
I’m becoming more and more convinced that the office of “president” is about as meaningful as Queen of England. He’s nothing more than a figurehead.... People are going to find out that presidents have little to do with anything these days.
I vacillate between the two extremes on this, but his background of never having done anything at all keeps bringing me back to it. He’s an ideological Leftist to his core, but he is not calling the shots in the least. He went to bed on Benghazi, and generally just reads what is put in front of him.
Oops, Jeff just got put on THE list.
These leaders deflect attention away from Soros and his Bilderburg buddies. No one looks at the puppet master when there is an animated puppet clowning around front and center.
Malto meal.
Okay, sorry....delete this...”HOLY SHIT”!
I guess Nancy P knew too. Remember when she said “everyone knows Mitt Romney won’t be president?” with that smirk on her face. What did she know? They are all criminals.
...................I don’t know how many people knew about it in Congress, but I suspect a very small number on the Intelligence Committee, so when the president says all members of Congress were briefed … well, I think a very small number of Senators in Congress had full details on these programs,” Merkley said...................
Ok Merkley, where’ve ya been these past four years? Sitting on the toilet in the House chamber, waiting for some other wimp to ask a question????
Thanks for the link.
CYA. Wonder how they’re going to slap down the back benchers who open their traps.
Heads...pikes.
"Seriously dangerous times ahead. Deadly times. War, and censorship under the color of authority and under the pretext of of national security"
Anyone think the Clintons are the ones behind the leaks? There’s a mountain of information coming out...somehow.
Didn’t Bo get authority to shut down cell phones and internet not long ago?
If communication can be cut for the sake of so called national security...as in Boston...could it not be done nationwide?
The article is interesting...but sounds like the Ulsterman sort of thing....still...I do believe taking down this country is in full swing regardless.
RE: DHS insider
I just read it from your link. I’m not sure what to make of it. In a way, it sounds a little bit like the “Ulsterman” WH insider thing. Ulsterman has pretty much been discredited as far as I know, but his stuff still came fairly close to the truth in some cases.
Even if the author here is giving it straight, there is no way to tell whether or not he is being played by his “source.” Why would the DHS source go to this particular author?
I personally think the best I can do is take in the information, apply a little skepticism and be on the lookout for other information that confirms or contradicts.
