Rush military caller says beyond shadow of doubt Obama knew about Benghazi
Right Scoop ^

Retired Lt. Col discussing standard operating procedures on how this would have worked its way up the chain...

Rush military caller says beyond shadow of doubt Obama knew about Benghazi attack and ordered no response

quote: This is an amazing phone call from a retired Lt. Col. and Special Operations Planner for 15 years who knows the inside baseball of what goes on in the White House. He told Rush that protocol dictates that as soon as the situation room got the email about the Benghazi attack, someone marched up to the president and informed him of the attack. He says it’s a bald faced lie if they say otherwise.

He also says that it was the president who gave the order at his 5pm meeting that day to not respond to the Libya attack in progress.

Thought you should know about an exemplary Freeper.

His conversation with Rush today was/is remarkable.

The guy who called to Rush knew things and terminology that only someone who had done high level intelligence would know. I wish Rush would invite him back on Monday. This really is a bombshell, that starts to explain all the changing stories.

I know this is a little paranoid, but......

If this is true, this thing is going viral, I would be ready to hide your personal info that FR has and be ready for anyone who wants to force JimRob to give out that info.

They already let people die for this lie of there's, they are a dangerous and unprincipled bunch.

Best of luck, that was a very informative call.

I’m confused. I would think it doesn’t matter whether Barry knew or didn’t know because it is HIS job (not Jarrett’s) to know. This happened on his watch and it is his baby to be punished with. Do I have that wrong?

Thank you for your service. I am speechless, disgusted and angry. I have also been calling my Congress-critters demanding they get to the bottom of this.

It doesn’t seem like you listened to what the guy said. The protocol is that when they get an alert like this the designated person goes right up to Obama and Obama is told personally IMMEDIATELY.

what? Obama doesn’t care or just doesn’t pay attention or has instructed his people to take care of it and they didn’t. It’s one of those..

Obama is also supposed to be briefed, if they can drag his ass off the golf course or away from a Hollywood set. My point is that he just doesn’t care or doesn’t want to care and has people around him that keep him from hearing. Remember the football (launch code briefcase) that Clinton left behind and nobody missed.. yeah, Obama’s worse.

we all assume that Obama is actually president or he’s actually doing the job of President. My point is that he’s not performing his tasks and ignoring or delegating his responsibilities to people who can’t bother to care.
I have a feeling we will find out a lot about this guy after he leaves office.

no you don’t but we labor under the assumption that he wants to do his actual job.
He’s golfed 100 times, been on countless vacations, taken a lot of time off to campaign and during all this, he’s supposed to also be in charge of the military and deal with thrice daily briefings?
You don’t have it wrong, he does.

I listened to the entire call and it finally clicked. The only way this could have happened is if we had a CinC that is so out of the loop he had no idea. The only way he can be that far out is either by his own desire or the desire of people just wanting to avoid dealing with him. Like when Pelosi and Reid placed him on mute/speaker and just went on doing what they were doing, ignoring him.

Someone needs to ask Obama

“Mr President, what time did you leave the 5 pm meeting on 9/11? Did you go to the residence? Did you leave the WH Grounds, take the wife for a night out? What time did you go to bed and did you have any significant conversations with anyone regarding Libya after you left that meeting? And why aren’t you personally aware of any requests for support from those under attack in Libya. IT IS YOUR JOB TO KNOW!”

Thank you sir for your service, and for the courageous act of patriotism you performed today before millions of listeners.

Did you get to say everything you planned to, is there anything additional?

Even if Obama shirks his duties, the others still do theirs. Obama only attended about 40% of the daily security briefs but those briefs still went on without him. And somebody had a responsibility to get in Obama’s face and tell him that the Libyan ambassador was missing and under attack.

If he didn’t get the message because he refused it then he’s got even more to explain than if he did hear it. We don’t hire a POTUS to let the red phone go unmanned. If that’s the way Obama is functioning then he needs to be hung for treason.

time will tell. I think we will find out a lot about what went on behind the scenes after the smoke clears.

Bless you and thank you for your service and for your patriotism! Your shared information on the basis of your experience was so valuable to all of us who are trying to understand why 4 of our own were lost with no effort to rescue by our government. I really appreciate everything you have done, and am so pleased to see that you are a fellow FReeper as well!
