RonD1120 58 #227 November 9, 2012 Quotehttp://www.examiner.com/article/pentagon-denies-claims-general-was-fired-over-benghazi-attacks QuotePentagon denies claims general was fired over Benghazi attacks On Monday, U.S. military officials denied claims from a Washington Times blog that Gen. Carter Ham, former head of U.S. Africa command, may have been fired due to an intent to disobey defense secretary Leon Panetta's order to "stand down" while the Sept. 11 attacks in Benghazi were underway. Rumors circling the internet, mostly fueled by bloggers, claim that Gen. Ham wanted to send special forces units to help Americans under siege in Libya despite orders from Sec. Panetta to stand down. Ham was supposedly relieved of his command by a junior officer just before Ham was to order the rescue mission. None of this information has been confirmed. On Monday, Gen. Martin Dempsey, Chairman of the Joint Chief of Staff, released the following statement to the Washington Times: "The speculation that General Carter Ham is departing Africa Command (AFRICOM) due to events in Benghazi, Libya on 11 September 2012 is absolutely false. General Ham's departure is part of routine succession planning that has been on going since July." Hmmm! And then this pops up. http://usnews.nbcnews.com/_news/2012/11/09/15054517-cia-director-david-petraeus-resigns-cites-extramarital-affair?lite QuoteCIA Director David Petraeus resigns, cites extramarital affair As first reported by NBC News, Petraeus disclosed the affair in a letter released to the CIA work force on Friday afternoon, writing: "Such behavior is unacceptable, both as a husband and as the leader of an organization such as ours." Petraeus told President Barack Obama of his affair and offered his resignation during a meeting Thursday, a senior official told NBC News. In a phone call on Friday, Obama accepted the resignation, the official said.

RonD1120 58 #233 November 14, 2012 I have to give BHO and his bunch kudos for subversion and subterfuge. Following similar tactics used in the Fast and Furious debacle, they have managed to convert the Benghazi cover up from a bravo sierra movie to a full blown sex scandal. Petraeus obviously screwed up, bad. However, by exposing him when they did the issue is now adultery, not the abandonment of Americans in a war zone. Remember, at the beginning Petraeus denied the movie aspect of the terrorist attack. He was ready to hang it on the White House. Well, they showed him. So now he is not expected to testify. But, if he does and he makes derogatory statements against BHO and the bunch, he will be viewed by the media sycophants as a disgruntled and chagrined former employee. It will just be sour grapes. To further cloud the issue they have now implicated GEN John Allen. Who is doing all this. BHO's personal FBI. Nice work BHO, nice work. In closing, I remain in standby, waiting for the total collapse of the America I love.Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit.

billvon 2,400 #236 November 14, 2012 I can't keep track of the conspiracy theories here. THEY COVERED IT UP UNTIL THE ELECTION! THEY COVER . . . wait, what? GOP leaders knew about it? OK never mind. THEY BLACKMAILED HIM INTO NOT TESTIFYING! They said they wouldn't release the incriminating facts as long as he didn't tes . . . wait, they released it anyway? Hmm. Never mind. THEY USED THIS TO KEEP HIM FROM TESTIFYING! He's not going . . . wait. He's going to testify ANYWAY? What the fuck? Can't you give a conspiracy theorist a break here? THEY USED THIS TO GET HIM TO TESTIFY AGAINST THEM BUT TO MAKE HIS STORY SOMEWHAT QUESTIONABLE! Yeah, that's the ticket. >In closing, I remain in standby, waiting for the total collapse of the America I love. I (and most of America) will be happy to disappoint you.
