Normally I wouldn't put it past Barry to make a move like that, but this has been telegraphed for several months now. I also heard that the Iraqi Army are converting barges to carry troops for an amphibious assault along the Tigris. I'm betting that is another deliberate "leak". The Mujis tend to be pretty stupid, so they wont keep quiet upon hearing all of this information. They might reinforce an area, which would either mean more dead ISIS when go time comes, or will at least keep ISIS busy while the Kurds exploit another AO. ISIS might try to withdraw from Mosul, but that would create a highway of death for them. Or maybe CENTCOM is hoping for another reaction.
After castigating Hussein on television for not loving America, Rudy G. proclaimed Obongo a patriot. WTF???????
Egad!!!!!!! Rudi turned tail?

This is not treason.
As Commander-in-Chief, President Obama has lawful authority to say whatever he wants about military plans if he thinks it comports with his oath of office. Stupidity is not the same as treason. Obviously, he thinks there is some advantage to getting the word out to ISIL that Mosul will be retaken.
The retired general has an opinion that such disclosure aids and abets the enemy. He may be right that disclosure is a net negative, but it’s just an opinion, and he is not privy to Obama’s reasoning. Regardless of whether that opinion is correct, there is no evidence at all that Obama has adhered to the enemies of the United States, which essential to the Constitutional definition of treason. Nor are there credible witnesses to his adherence.
This is probably just Obama’s typical incompetence, or routine politics, and little different from the way other presidents have conducted themselves during war.
You forgot to include "hang by the neck until dead."
I realize it's a minor detail, but we have to make sure we dot all the i's and cross all the t's when confronting tyrants.
Credible evidence? Wait for it...it’s coming soon.
I’ll take Unintended Consequences for $1,000 Alex.
Takes a little more than that:
Thereafter, when the President transmits to the President pro tempore of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Representatives his written declaration that no inability exists, he shall resume the powers and duties of his office unless the Vice President and a majority of either the principal officers of the executive department or of such other body as Congress may by law provide, transmit within four days to the President pro tempore of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Representatives their written declaration that the President is unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office. Thereupon Congress shall decide the issue, assembling within forty-eight hours for that purpose if not in session. If the Congress, within twenty-one days after receipt of the latter written declaration, or, if Congress is not in session, within twenty-one days after Congress is required to assemble, determines by two-thirds vote of both Houses that the President is unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office, the Vice President shall continue to discharge the same as Acting President; otherwise, the President shall resume the powers and duties of his office.
The only way it makes sense is as a deception to misdirect when in fact the first target(s) might be Fallujah or in Syria, Aleppo and Raqqa.,
BUMP
ping!
>Time for the Generals to act.<

It is not in an American’s general nature to lead a coup of the Executive Branch — that’s only done in 3rd world countries.
It has never been done before and they do not want to be the first to do so and they don’t even know how to start.
Time for the Congress to act.
McInerney insisted that MH370 landed in Pakistan. I can’t quite take him seriously.

Well then, where is it?
THEN DO SOMETHING DANG IT!!
All they do is talk and bluster and threaten...and yet the little putz is still in there making us all miserable!
Aid and comfort to the enemy is treason.
Telling the enemy what the game plan is falls under that.
Thanks much.
