He apparently didn’t let the Pentagon know of the invitation from Trump. My guess is that Trump wants to offer the DNI job to him. In terms of ethnics, no one has ever written some code to say it’s in bad taste to let your boss know about some job interview. The amusing thing is that they may actually fire him, and in January find that he’s DNI guy.

Obama’s revenge carried out by two of the worst govt officials in American history - Ashton The Weakling Carter and James “One Bell is Missing a” Clapper.

Both disgraces to their profession and threats to America by their incompetence. They should be banned from ever serving in any official capacity in the US government, for life.

Free Republic did a better job of vetting Obama than the NSA. And for Billions cheaper.

FREEREP may not have done as bad a job but it hardly should be considered better.

Does the average Freeper think Hussein has a faked valid US birth certificate and was in no way eligible to serve as President?

Does the average Freeper know that Hussein attended US colleges as a foreign student?

Does the average Freeper know that Hussein was made President not to solve problems but to create problems? For example, Hussein's Obamacare was designed to hurt businesses and suppress the economy?

Does the average Freeper believe that Hussein was siding with Muslim terrorists in Egypt, Libya, Syria and Iraq including giving them aid and US weapons?

Does the average Freeper know that Hussein Obama is working not for the United States' best interest but for the Islamic takeover of the world?

This old table shows that Hussein's fundamental change of America is making the US a much more dangerous place for Americans. One component of the murderers is BLM type organizations openly threatening Americans with Hussein's encouragement. Another part of the mass shooting rate rapid increase is that peaceful Muslims occasionally decide to take their HOLY Quaran teachings literally to engage and even kill infidels to enslave them under Islam.

The only question I have for the intelligence services is whether the truth about Hussein was back rooms private conversation or was there active plans to attack the traitor in an organized coup? The US government insiders can't be as foolish as the average American and especially not as idiotic as the average Presstitute.

Hussein Obama in some respects was the best President in US history. His agenda has exposed for all to see the dangers of the leftists in this country. To hurt the US, Hussein and his terrorist handlers did NOT have to be creative, all they had to do was embrace the left's lunacy. Global warming is just one of the insane examples the left's dumbasses love.

They ahould be thoroughly investigated to see if they committed treason to get along with America's FIRST Muslim President. Then they should be imprisoned for life for treason if the dots add up.
