The Benghazi Whistle Blowers

Rep Issa Throws Down B--- S--- Card On Obama's Lack Of Knowledge About Benghazi Whistle Blower Threats

 

"Yesterday we reported that Benghazi whistle-blowers were being threatened with the end of their careers if they talk to Congress. We also learned that the whistle-blowers' attorneys were not being given the clearance they needed to be able to advise their clients.

"During his press conference this morning the President pulled the perfect "Sgt. Schultz" claiming that he knew nothing about the threats/lack of legal clearance for the Benghazi whistle-blowers."

 

RickMoran; Administration threatens Benghazi whistleblowers   "When Rep. Trey Gowdy said over the weekend that new hearings on Benghazi by the Government Oversight Committee would be "explosive," he apparently wasn't exaggerating. There is also a special operations member who claims that the Obama administration could have flown military assets to Benghazi within 4 hours - plenty of time to deal with the second attack on the safe house.

"This is why the administration just wishes Benghazi would just go away."

 

The Benghazi open wound  "And as usual, Fox News is driving the media investigations.

Victoria Toensing, a former Justice Department official and Republican  counsel to the Senate Intelligence Committee, is now representing one of the  State Department employees. She told Fox News her client and some of the others,  who consider themselves whistle-blowers, have been threatened by unnamed Obama  administration officials

Obama Not Familiar With" Benghazi Whistle-Blower Threats

Benghazi is a huge scandal waiting to engulf the Obama administration if the eyewitness-backed facts of incompetence and negligence ever make it into public view. But when asked about it, the president, speaking to reporters on Tuesday, insulted the intelligence of the American public.

CBS also covers it!  "On Friday, House Oversight Committee chairman Rep. Darrell Issa, R-Calif., followed up with a letter to Secretary of State John Kerry, accusing the State Department of impeding or delaying the Oversight Committee's investigation into the Benghazi attacks by restricting access to witnesses; insisting that all documents, even unclassified material, be reviewed privately; and "requiring a State Department minder to be present when investigators review evidence." A State Department spokesman says the agency is in the process of reviewing Issa's letter."

ObamaCare's Pre-Existing Condition Insurance Program; a "circular firing squad"

Galen Institute   "One of the most common — but highly inaccurate — criticisms of Republicans is that they don’t have a plan to fix the significant problems of the American health-care system. High-risk pools are one idea Republicans already have, and have been part of the House leadership’s reform plan since before Obamacare was enacted. Such pools are designed to hold down the cost of private insurance by removing the most expensive people from the normal market.
"This safety net makes sense politically, offers a solution that helps vulnerable people, and redirects existing Obamacare spending to actually helping sick people. But conservatives have to give up their circular-firing-squad habit."
Grace-Marie Turner, president of the Galen Institute, promotes an informed debate over free-market ideas for health reform.

"The Galen Institute has many plans to counter the march toward government-controlled medicine, and we believe we can shift the debate toward free-market ideas. Using our communications and coalition-building expertise, we work to:

• Educate policymakers about the dangers that government control over the health sector pose to our economy and our society;
• Reach out through the media to educate the public about the crucial importance of continued innovation to advance medical progress; and
• Attract new audiences to our message through the use of our popular newsletter, our websites, and a variety of new media tools.

Please forgive us for all the wrong we have done to you!

Redlines and the Problems of Intervention in Syria; An In-depth Analysis

STRATFOR "What the United States learned in Iraq, Afghanistan and Libya is that it is relatively easy for a conventional force to destroy a government. It is much harder  -- if not impossible -- to use the same force to impose a new type of government. The government that follows might be in some moral sense better than what preceded it -- it is difficult to imagine a more vile regime than Saddam Hussein's -- but the regime that replaces it will first be called chaos, followed by another regime that survives to the extent that it holds the United States at arm's length. Therefore, redline or not, few want to get involved in another intervention pivoting on weapons of mass destruction."

Obama’s Psychodramas

Victor Davis Hanson  "We know this much about this therapeutic and dishonest age: When the next horrific act occurs, one of two things will follow. Either we will rush to pass laws that will make us feel good but do nothing to address the existential crisis. Or we will be silent about enacting reforms of our existing flawed laws that might have prevented the horror, but would make us feel far too uncomfortable."

That was now. This was then: Lieutenant Junior Grade George Bush, USNR  "Throughout 1944, he had flown 58 combat missions for which he received the Distinguished Flying Cross, three Air Medals, and the Presidential Unit Citation awarded San Jacinto."
Needless to say, President Bush did not "loathe" the military as have so many leaders of the Democrat Party in recent decades.

What of the US's redline on Assad's use of gas?

Mideast Media Sampler – 04/29/2013 – Chemical weapons used by Syria, or not

It would be alarming if Mr. Assad crossed a line few others have crossed. Within one minute, nerve agents like sarin can trigger eye pain, nausea and vomiting, loss of bowel function, difficulty breathing and muscle weakness. But the case against Mr. Assad, so far, is thin. Experts say the best way to prove that chemical weapons have been used is to collect soil samples promptly at the site and examine suspected victims. That’s hard to do in a war zone, and, so far, Israel, Britain and France have not offered physical proof (Israeli officials cited only photographs of Syrians “foaming at the mouth.”) Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of Israel told Secretary of State John Kerry on Tuesday that he “was not in a position to confirm” his own government’s intelligence assessment. Given such mixed messages, Mr. Kerry and other administration officials have said, that while sharing some of the suspicions of America’s allies, they simply don’t have the facts to make a judgment, much less fashion a policy response.

 Syrian rebels: Official military document (Division 7) proves use of chemical weapons by Assad forces. Doc attached pic.twitter.com/ewoH7HH2g3

 

 

Obama’s non-response to Assad’s chemical weapons would encourage a nuclear Iran -  "This loss of credibility and face would have three immediate consequences:

1. Assad will not stop using lethal chemicals against his people. After getting away with it scot-free, he will use them against any time he feels his regime has its back to the wall.
2. Tehran and Pyongyang will take US inaction on the Syrian chemical issue as a license to go forward and develop their nuclear and other sophisticated weapons without fear of forceful interference.
3. At some stage in the Syrian conflict, Assad will transfer to Hizballah a quantity of chemical weapons and other advanced war materiel as a reward for the Lebanese Shiite radicals’ stalwart battle in support of his regime. debkafile’s military sources have learned that preparations are already in train for the transfer.






Caroline Glick writes that it is Time to confront Obama  .... "Perhaps our leaders are repeating these lies because they want to present a unified US-Israel front to the world. But the effect is just the opposite.

 

"What their statements really demonstrate is that Israel has been brought to its knees by its superpower patron that has implemented a policy that has enabled Iran to become a nuclear power.

 

"Indeed, the US has allowed Iran to cross the nuclear threshold while requiring Israel to pretend the course the US has followed is a responsible one."....

Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee(D-Texas) Spends $23K on Round-the -World Trip: Why?

Voice of Lillpop   "Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee has never been one to moderate on anything. From her wild-left ideas to her voting record, the woman seems to believe that the voters owe her a life of luxury and posh living.

"Lee’s excesses apparently extend to her reckless use of taxpayer money to travel around the world. As reported at the reference:"

....The trip costs included $19,970 for transportation, $1,292 for per diem, and $2,385 for other purposes.

"$2,385 for “other purposes,” Representative?"

 

How to respond to being called 'judgmental'

American Thinker  "When we understand the motivation of the defensive person, we can mobilize strategies to respond in powerful ways. At least two approaches are possible: conciliatory or confrontational. With a conciliatory response, we empathize with the defensive person and try to establish a mutually respectful relationship. We realize that people are generally reactive when they feel vulnerable and threatened. A cornered beast bares teeth and claws.  And nothing triggers a reaction like shame and guilt.  Read more.   Hat tip to Christy Waters

 

Americans fear government more than terror

WND   "According to a pair of recent polls, for the first time since the 9/11 terrorist hijackings, Americans are more fearful their government will abuse constitutional liberties than fail to keep its citizens safe.
"Even in the wake of the April 15 Boston Marathon bombing – in which a pair of Islamic radicals are accused of planting explosives that took the lives of 3 and wounded over 280 – the polls suggest Americans are hesitant to give up any further freedoms in exchange for increased “security.”"
