War On Terror: The way the White House has hyped a supposedly imminent al-Qaida plot, only one thing has to happen for President Obama to come off as a hero: nothing. It smells fishy. It´s not at the level of Robert De Niro and Dustin Hoffman cinematically fabricating a war with Albania to get the public´s mind off a presidential sex scandal, as in David Mamet´s 1997 black comedy "Wag the Dog," but the indefinite shutdown of 20 U.S. embassies in the Mideast and Africa after the announcement of a for-sure, impending terrorist mega-attack looks suspiciously gift-wrapped and well-timed

If closing them means less visas for those people, then I like it.

Every closed embassy has already been breeched (imo) and anything that can be gleaned from papers and computers is now being deciphered and translated for the final push to take Europe.
zero is complicit in the destruction of the personal freedom of millions and by extension ... murder.
What?
I didn't know ... I was playin' golf.

The real reason he closed them was it was his birthday and he didn’t want any phone calls to interrupt the party.

Don’t let a crisis go to waste even if you have to make it yourself.

The Zero team probably looks at as a win-win.
If nothing happens, then the “threat” was diffused.
On the off chance AQ does do an attack of some sort then the NSA etc intel paid dividends by preventing civilian loss of life.

From the end of the article:
There is no Monica Lewinsky scandal going on in the Obama White House; there are, truth be told, bunglings and corruption that are far worse: IRS election tampering; throwing diplomats to the wolves in a misguided Libyan initiative against an already-defanged Moammar Gadhafi; Justice Department surveillance of journalists; and the growing public realization that ObamaCare is as socialistically intrusive and incompetently designed as it was deceitfully advertised.
Pow! Bang!!

No one is pointing that this whole embassy closure thing started on Obama’s birthday.
Only the Obamators are so narcissistic to think Al Queda would launch an attack on the his birthday? Really?

Just another scam.
This one is a bogus dog and pony show to demonstrate how effective and important it is to keep NSA and others monitoring all of our communications and every aspect of our lives.
Similar to the administration stopping the White House tours to demonstrate how strapped for cash Obama is due to the Sequestration and the meanies in the republican party.

And no one will do a blessed thing about it.

All of us should get on our cellphones at one time and say “Wag the Dog, Obama”.
He must feel safe at Martha’s Vineyard.
