White House Suggests it Won’t Cooperate with Benghazi Panel
Whitehousedossier.com ^ | May 5 2014 | Keith Koffle

White House Press Secretary Jay Carney today indicated the White House will refuse to cooperate with a new House committee tasked with investigating Benghazi.

“We have always cooperated with legitimate oversight,” Carney said this afternoon during the daily White House briefing. Asked whether the panel qualified as “legitimate,” he said: “I think if you look at what even some Republicans have said, it certainly casts doubt on the legitimacy of an effort that is so partisan in nature.”

“You know, at some point, you just have to assume that Republicans will continue this because it feeds a political objective of some sort,” he added. “At the same time you have to ask, ‘What about the American people who want to see Congress work for them?’”

Meanwhile, House Speaker Boehner today announced that Rep. Trey Gowdy (R-S.C.) will chair the Benghazi committee.

“With four of our countrymen killed at the hands of terrorists, the American people want answers, accountability, and justice,” Boehner said. “Trey Gowdy is as dogged, focused, and serious-minded as they come.”

I wonder how the Dems (and their media pals) would have responded if Nixon had said he wouldn’t cooperate with the Watergate Select Committee?

The GUILTY ONE is scared to death!

Military Scramble Order Overseas, How They Work
First, I've got over 26 years working in military control towers, most of them as the watch supervisor/crew chief on duty.
Scrambling aircraft to respond to urgent situations normally starts at the North American Aerospace Defense Command.
The scramble order comes down through a secured phone call on a direct line.
In the attack on the U.S. embassy on Benghazi, the drone control would have been from MacDill AFB, FL, by U.S. Central Command, and would have been in direct contact, or maybe even remote control to the situation room in the White House.
Watch this 4 minute 48 second video Inside the Situation Room.
The pResident SHOULD HAVE issued to order to scramble fighters to Benghazi, to get there in minimum time.
Then he SHOULD HAVE issued a second order scrambling AC-130 gunships to respond to Benghazi, and have them stand by for more orders. This should have been controlled by the pResident, who should have monitored and responded with guidance from his Situation Room, Read
Here's one more piece of information.
Like Rush said:

Now we know that Obama was in the room watching Benghazi attack live.

I know from experience in the government (over 30 years) that the communication system allows for IMMEDIATE NOTIFICATION to the SITUATION ROOM,
as well as other agencies, of notification of a critical situation such as this.
I'm sure technology has changed and only gotten better since I retired, but read this with focus on FLASH OVERRIDE and FLASH.
There is more you need to read.
The Pundit Press has videos worth watching at "Under God" Removed By Obama During Inauguration Pledge.
Read "Under God" Removed By Obama During Inaguration Pledge on Free Republic with all its comments, and know that we were warned of this.


This has been planned for a VERY LONG TIME.
Obama is solely responsible for this.
Hillary claimed “No Knowledge” of gun running
and told Rand Paul he needed to ask the CIA
.


Let's look at some of the facts.
So, let us remember. For a better understanding of the issue, read HISTORY of Mohammed ( spelled variously; Mahomet, Muhammed, Mehmet, etc. ). then watch William Federer explain it, from Jan. 25, 2012 at CC Chino Hills, CA. It's a MUST WATCH for everyone,Christians, Athiests and even Muslims!

As retired military myself, I've seen the damage of "keeping secrets" about bad leaders.
Obama is EVIL, pure and simple.
Please watch Glenn Beck with Trevor Loudon & his book "Barack Obama and the Enemies Within".
Then watch the 29 minute 13 seconds video Trevor Loudon- An Urgent (and chilling) Message for America.



Barack Obama and the Enemies Within


Obama may be feigning "incompetence," thinking he's too sly, being a "wolf in sheep's clothing" since his mentoring was from Fabian Fascism..
The "Establishment Republicans" will probably NOT want to IMPEACH the TREASONIST Barack Hussein Obama II.
But it's better for the country that Obama suffer the penalty, the strongest penalty for his actions, and his inactions.
Let's look at the Presidential Oaths of Office.
Now who among us really believes Obama did any of that ?
To Obama, that was "Just words. Just speeches! "
Damn him ! Damn him to hell !

I'll finish this with asking you to read Watch the 18 minute 56 second documentary video "Absolutely Uncertain" at "theBLAZE.com" or on YouTube.com, narrated by Irina, the 23-year-old “Jewish New Yorker” and a former Obama supporter .

One other suggestion, read DID OBAMA WANT STEVENS DEAD?
The language is a little abrasive, but spot on. Also read:

Read and watch all the videos from Could assets have reached Benghazi in time to save lives? [Ret. Lt Gen Boykin-Huckabee] and especially comment #44 and comment #57.

Face it, there is no oversight anymore. These people refuse to play by the rules and have instead taken the path of dictatorship. America is over because there is nothing to restrain or keep these people Constitutional.

Don’t expect clean or fair elections in 2014. They will cheat and have no second thoughts about it.

The exicutive has just delegitimized the legislative.
That in itself is enough to call it’s existance into
question.

The Republicans are trying to fight it, but this is what you get in a dictatorship that hasn’t yet declared it is a dictatorship. You are supposed to figure it out at the moment.

They are hiding some major sh7% and by acting like this, it blows up to something huge that they were doing. If it’s a phony scandal, they would have handed over all the info a year ago.

There is far more than a few for this. However, if the WH is going to choose to not obey the Constitution, ain’t much the Republicans can do about it.

All of the government options, including fair elections are no longer going to happen.

These people have basically overthrown America.

They are campus agitators. They never cede a thing to their political enemies, regardless of how trivial the request.

Democrats seek to delegitimize any opposition but treating it as not worthy of their time. And because the republicans have no balls they're doing a pretty good job of it.

I wonder how the Dems (and their media pals) would have responded if Nixon had said he wouldn’t cooperate with the Watergate Select Committee?

My answer to this is much too long.

Here's the bottom line: In November, 1972 Nixon got 520 electoral votes and 61% of the popular vote. The Democrats, and their allies in the media, decided to get rid of him, damn the cost.

They made a plan that would take 18 months to bear fruit. Their media was perfect. Their strategy in the courts was perfect.

But they started with a simple premise - that Watergate was a crime, and that other crimes had been committed to cover it up. In this, they were correct. By staying focused, they reversed one of the most lopsided elections in our history.

Benghazi was NOT a crime. Benghazi was the exercise of discretionary authority. The President is not obliged to insert light forces into urban combat. Not ever.

The Republicans are not determined to remove Obama. If you shoot at the king, you have to shoot to kill. They have been dicking around for eighteen months.

No President has ever been removed by the Congress. Nixon came very close - but that's because the investigative process would have proved that he was guilty of crimes.

Obama is guilty of many crimes, but the IRS is the way to get him out.

Benghazi is a distraction - which is why they've chosen it.

THAT is the question that every Republican on TV needs to ask—and then ask in a political ad that points out NO ONE DIED in Watergate!
