The guns were being diverted by Turkey to gaza through the mb in Egypt and smuggled to hamas through the Rafa tunnels.. This is what the EX SEALS were trying to stop.
But if Journalism washes his shorts raises the question: Will the employees of the MSM be washed away and simply disappear down the drain?
Please add me to your list.
Thanks.
Zippy’s eyes look angry. (For him that’s pretty normal. He’s a petty angry small man.)
Petraeus looks like he is watching Zippy closely. It’s a look that says “I don’t trust this guy and need to keep an eye on him.” Or maybe “I have no idea what he might do or say next but I doubt it will be good.”
It hasn’t happened yet. Time will tell.
As far as the outcome of the electionj goes, It would not have made any difference.Those who voted for obama did not give a damn about the United States, the security of the United States,or the future of the United States. They cared for one thing and one thing only—the freebies that obama promised them.
I’ve been saying for years that most employees of the MSM are skid marks on Journalism’s shorts.. I have some hope that the Benghazi tragedy will force Journalism to wash his shorts.
But if Journalism washes his shorts raises the question: Will the employees of the MSM be washed away and simply disappear down the drain?
Wash his shorts? They are happily licking them.
I would think that Intel briefings are classified and that direct quotes made by Petraeus during an Intel briefing is also classified.
Your second point has the context fixing portion garbled. I won't accuse you of doing that deliberately. But I will say that what you've quoted in the context setting IS NOT what he said. Specifically, this is the context: Rep. Dutch Ruppersberger, the top Democrat on the House Intel committee, said Petraeus laid out “a chronological order exactly what we felt happened, how it happened, and where we’re going in the future.”
I didn't garble anything. I gave you all the direct quotes minus the ABC News garble. They are the ones who twisted things by pulling half sentences out of context and adding their own words. Read the quoted words again.
He directly attributes what comes next to Petraeus.
The direct quotes end and then start again. ABC is playing with the context of what the congressman said in between the different quotes. They do this all the time.
The GOP could have just as clearly said, "No P4 did not say that." The GOP has not done that.
It was a classified CIA intel briefing. Confirming or denying comments in the press about such briefings is simply not done.
Furthermore, Petraeus himself had numerous opportunities to deny these remarks, as well as to deny WH claims that the "spontaneous demonstration" legend originated with the CIA. He did not do so.
It's standard practice that people with security clearances and especially CIA directors don't confirm or deny press stories about classified information.
He did not contradict the WH on any point of significance until the Friday before the election, at which point he claimed that stories that the CIA denied assistance to the Ambassador and his team were false. That is 100% of his push-back to date.
Yes, Petraues saw that they were making him the fall guy. That's when he pushed back in the press and that's when his fate was sealed as CIA director.
Sorry, but as much as I didn't want to believe this originally, all the evidence (and silent agreement) we have points to one conclusion: David Petraeus was complicit in the cover-up of the murders of the American Ambassador and three other Americans on 9/11/2012.
You're entitled to your opinion. There is no way I can come to the same conclusion at this point.
Obama Impeachment File.
Depends what ALMOST means...as in almost immediately??
If he does a about face, what reasoning can he possibly give?
Hey if this guy can say, hey I am ashamed that I allowed myself to become part of the cover up?
After the election does not help much
I’m not going to be surprised to hear about Petraeus being involved in an accident or some other life ending event.
Couple of days ago, in a DC park. Press reports indicated she was in the area visiting friends last weekend (probably an effort to evade the press). Her North Carolina driver’s license was found in the park and turned over to local police. In a rather interesting twist, the cops plan to give it to the FBI (as I recall), instead of following the normal protocol of shipping it to the NC DMV.
As far as I know, Ms. Broadwell has not been seen publicly in days, and neither has her family. When the FBI searched her home in Charlotte Monday evening, no one was home. They carried away boxes of documents, after government officials said her affair with David Petraeus did not compromise national security. Now, the press has been told that Broadwell had “extensive” amounts of classified data in her home.
She did not ask that of the Democrat who is the ranking member on the House Intelligence /committee....that would be a classified matter.
I think we will not here much of any answers on that one.
Yes, of course. I was mocking the press, referring to the following of post #6:
“Not if the White House press corp gets to ask the questions.
Benghazi won’t even come up...”
Who is Ben Gh. . .
The CIA has only gotten worse in the last few decades.
The questions alone were a stinging indictment.
“The guns were being diverted by Turkey to gaza through the mb in Egypt and smuggled to hamas through the Rafa tunnels..”
Well, in light of recent events going on in Gaza, that makes a lot of sense..
Thanks
Maybe with what is happening in the world he is putting his country first meaning the “Commander and Clown” will have to step down.
I am skeptical that Petraeus is going to come clean. In his resignation letter, he mentioned that Obama “graciously” accepted his resignation.
There are all kinds of reasons he could have used that word; sarcasm being one of them.
