Doing the math, I would say your hypothesis looks to be headed toward law. Is no longer a hypothesis or theory where zer0 is going next.

Again, the U.S. Is made to look weak. All according the President Jarretts plan.

Damnit, I wish there was a real Mitch Rapp who could get into the WH and end this terrible nightmare.

And they even promised him he’d be on the real waiting list, not the fake one...

Word from the DOD ranks is that the Dirka-Dirkas will soon be enjoying a serving of Obama’s favorite dessert: drone strikes. We had eyes-on during the exchange and still do. This was supposedly an op to follow the rats to their hiding places.

Don’t know if it’s true - we shall see - but it comes from someone with access to strategy discussions. Obama does love to use his drones.

This is a cover for something else.

See #48.

This episode puts an exclamation point at the end of the abject failure of the Obama administration’s foreign policy and the administration in general. This feels like it did at the end of the Carter administration and the “Desert One” debacle.

It’s difficult to believe Obama would come up with it anyway. If it is true, the plan probably came from military leaders. That I could believe and support. Lie to ‘em. Then hit ‘em where they live. Peace out, Mohammed. Enjoy your virgins.

What a load of horseshit... on so many levels.

I’ve never seen an organization so easily make the argument: “It was inconvenient for us to follow the law, so we didn’t ... “ and have it accepted by the rest of the country, than the Obamanites.
You see the same thing in their attitude towards `undocumented immigrants’: “We don’t like the law, so we’re ignoring it.”

Probably. I’m just passing it on. I made note of it and will be following up on it to see if it pans out.

When the five terrorists re-surface and return to slaughtering Americans, Obama can manufacture another fantasy about videos or some other equally ridiculous cover-up, and the media will dutifully back him up. There’s absolutely no down side for him when he’s caught lying, and he doesn’t even try to dress up his falsehoods.

This whole thing seems like a collusive setup; from the way he walked away from his post, leaving his gun and kit, his emails saying he was ashamed to be an American, the report that he was training the Taliban in ambush techniques and bomb making, his father giving thanks in Arabic, and the exchange of five high ranking Taliban from Gitmo for this probable deserter. This seems like a deal cooked up between Obama and his advisors and the terrorist leadership.


BINGO

Lame duck Obama doesn’t even try to make an appearance of competence.

Brings to mind the high-level Soviet guy who, when asked about Russia not being directly involved in Middle East talks, said they didn’t need a representative, Kissinger was their man.

It WAS a victory for terrorists. He has every right to celebrate...

My question is, ‘When has Obama ever delivered a ‘victory’ for the United States?’ Will that ever happen? And why did Obama care so much more about this man than about the dead SEALS of Benghazi?
