Unfolding Libyan scandal could sink Obama and end Hillary’s political career





As more information comes out on the murder of our Libyan Ambassador and 3 other Americans during the assault in Benghazi…. the more incriminating it gets for the higher ups in Washington DC.

Our murdered ambassador, Chris Stevens, had repeatedly been requesting more security  in the months before the attack.  Those requests seemed to have been routinely ignored.  Shockingly, we are now finding out, a key special security force was withdrawn shortly before the attack.

The administrations original story, “the attack was a spontaneous angry reaction to a video,” has been thoroughly debunked.  This makes the situation more dire politically for the administration, with only days before the election.

Conflicting stories and finger pointing are erupting between the State Department, the Whitehouse and the intelligence community.

To compound the problem for the Obama administration, Secretary of Defense, Leon Panetta, claimed yesterday, there was no “real time intel” to base a decision on whether to send help to the besieged consulate.

But according to Fox News,  CIA sources say there was a wealth of "real-time information" coming in, including two military surveillance drones and those who were on the ground.  The communication from the CIA annex about a mile away from the consulate was "constant":

The latest bombshell now shows the attack was a 7 hour ordeal.  There was plenty of time to send help to the besieged Americans.  Repeated pleas for help from those on the scene were denied by those higher up.

At one point during the battle a CIA operative pinpointed the mortar team which was bombarding the complex. He radioed for fire support from a Specter gunship, commonly used by U.S. Special Ops to provide support to teams on the ground.  Even though an American airbase was only an hour away, no gunships arrived. 

Further, Fox News learned, no Tier One Special operations forces, among them Delta Force operators, showed up to help, which were also within range and able to help if authorized.

But heroism stood front and center in spite of the indecision emanating from Washington.  Ex-SEAL Tyrone Woods, hearing the fire fight from his position at the CIA annex 1 mile from the consulate radioed for permission to go the aid of his fellow Americans.  Twice he was told to stand down.  After the 2nd denial of his request, he and 3 others disobeyed orders and made their way to the consulate.  When they arrived, they came under fire, but were able to evacuate those who remained back to the CIA annex.

Heroic Ex SEAL Tyrone Woods was later killed defending against another attack on the CIA annex by the heavily armed militants. Woods had heard the urgent call for help from his fellow Americans and couldn’t turn a deaf ear.  For that he paid the ultimate price.

If the same measure of heroism that Tyrone Woods displayed prevailed in Washington DC…..Perhaps the deaths of our Americans in Libya could have been avoided.

Every day more shocking details of the Libyan disaster unfold and it gets worse for the Obama administration.  The first and most shocking fact is that we left our Ambassador woefully under protected and a sitting duck in a very hostile environment.  The 2nd is that when they came under attack, the administration didn’t provide the help they needed to save their lives.

Vice President Biden, in another bizarre display of his personality disorder, tried to console the father of Chris Woods by telling him 'Did your son always have balls the size of cue balls?'  Charles Woods was highly offended by this remark and talked about this and other shabby treatment towards him by President Obama and Hillary Clinton, in a UK Mailonline article.

Some political pundits are saying this scandal is far worse than the Watergate scandal, which forced a President to resign.  In Watergate no one died. As this unfolds, the casualties to political careers could prove fatal to all of those involved, including Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama.

Fox News & the Irish Americans behind it, are an inconvenient truth to the liberal dominated media




Hannity & O'Reilly
 Since television was first introduced to the US, it was immediately seized upon and dominated by three networks, ABC, CBS and NBC.  Television news commentators were invited into every home in America. We knew them as Cronkhite, Rather, Mudd, Couric, Brokaw and dozens of others, all dutifully reading their scripts on our screens. Telling us "all the news we needed to know."

They dominated the information we received, especially when teamed up with the New York Times and CNN. 

But then a great entrepreneur by the name of Murdock noticed the unholy alliance that had gripped control of America’s information media and decided to throw a bombshell into the middle of it. He introduced Fox News to America.

Although not a broadcast channel with the audience that the 3 entrenched networks had, Fox News propelled itself into huge popularity on cable television.  Many say it spearheaded the popularity of cable television. 

All of a sudden viewers, many of whom thought they were being read propaganda by the broadcast channels, were able to hear another side of the story.  The popularity of Fox News grew like wildfire as people flocked to hear the other side of the story, or as Fox likes to say “Fair and Balanced” coverage of the information.

Names with an Irish twist to them like Hannity, O’Reilly, Kelly, Guilfoyle, Crowley & Buchanan give Fox a crew of talented, fearless, journalists,  who don’t back down from a fight.  In fact they live for the political brawls and relish challenging the status quo.

The addition of Fox & internet news sites to the information medium  has caused a revolution in the way news is received and now questioned by the public.  CBS news anchor Dan Rather found this out the hard way when he was caught trying to take down George Bush with a false hit piece just prior to the 2008 presidential election.  As a result Rather lost his job,  CBS suffered a huge black eye and loss of its credibility.

The exposure of Dan Rather’s attempt to sway the Presidential election with false and misleading information has shown how vulnerable the public has been for years of having 3 major news networks all with a liberal bias.   The Fox presence, along with internet news sites have exposed this bias thousands of times as they cover stories the main stream media chooses to ignore.

The inconvenient truth facing the main stream media today,  is that the information they were able to mete out to the American public,  is now available to millions unfiltered through Fox and alternative information sources. The main stream media lost its stranglehold.

Imagine the comfort of the Obama administration, if pugnacious Sean Hannity wasn’t around to inform us how dire the Libyan embassy situation really is, as well as expose the whole Obama Mideast policy disaster? 

Or if Bill O’Reilly wasn’t pointing out that our leader has left Washington leaderless.  While he plays over a hundred rounds of golf we sank into 16 trillion in debt without a budget for 3 years?

If Megan Kelly wasn’t warning us about Obama’s justice department’s involvement in the Fast and Furious gun running scandal?

Or Pat Buchanan’s warning we are losing the battle of civilizations as the Obama administration kow tows to foreign powers, while cutting the legs out from beneath our friends and allies?

Or Kimberly Guilfoyle keeping her cool as left wing nut Leo Terrell, unleashed a tirade of invective as he got caught in her special brand of logic.

Thankfully Fox News is here getting stronger all of the time, countering the dishonesty dished out by the main stream media. Keeping it fair and balanced.

Governor Huckabee compares Libyan cover up to Watergate & Lewinsky scandals

Most transparent of administrations?


Governor Mike Huckabee, spoke on Fox News this morning and opined on the unfolding Libyan embassy scandal.  The attack which killed our ambassador and 3 other Americans is turning out to be nothing like the administration has been telling the public for the weeks following the attack.

The Governor said something very important, touching upon a core principle of our republic: “The uniqueness of our country says that government serves us, they can’t serve us when they are not honest with us.” 

He went on to say:

"Nixon resigned because he got caught lying. Clinton was impeached because he lied.  The cataclysmic events that happened to Clinton and Nixon, were not because of the transgressions themselves, but they lied about the cover up.  But in their cases no one died."

"But facts bear out we have been blatantly lied to by our leaders about the attack on our Libyan Embassy. President Obama and his administration has knowingly been untruthful with the American public."

The Governor clarified his position by saying “I am not demanding impeachment, but I am suggesting the American people demand the real truth.”

Facts show this administration know it was a terrorist attack almost immediately, they even knew who some of the suspects were.  The attack had nothing to do with the cheesy anti Islamic video, like his underlings tried to convince us of.

--------------------------

This administration sent the press secretary and its UN Ambassador out to deliberately deceive the public. 

Huckabee said: "If we held Nixon and Clinton to standards of honesty, why don’t we hold this President to the same standards?"

There is a pattern of denial by the Obama administration and it shows they want to ignore there is Islamic terrorism being waged against us.

During the Fort Hood Texas shooting, Major Hassan killed 14 fellow service members as he chanted an Islamic prayer.  The administration is still calling this a workplace violence incident.  There are many other similar incidents pock marking the history of this administration.

To further  dispute the administrations version of the Libyan Embassy attack was just a “spontaneous event,” yesterday it was learned the FBI agents sent to Libya two weeks ago have not been able to visit the consulate.…Why?  Because the area is too dangerous.

"If you lie to your boss expect to get fired….If you lie to the American people, you should get fired."

The American people deserve to hear the truth from their leader

Iran gains power in Latin America as Obama administration looks on; a brave leader speaks

Bolivia's Evo Morales w/Irans Ahmadinejad
While attention has been focused on the murder of our ambassador to Libya and violent anti American demonstrations against our embassies overseas.....Those same anti American tentacles have been quietly grabbing hold in our own back yard.


With little notice in the main stream media, Iran has been cementing it’s relationships with regimes in Venezuela & Bolivia, both countries under the control of strongmen friendly to communism.  Iran is a main funder of terrorism throughout the world, For them to gain a foothold in Latin America, does not bode well for peace in our hemisphere.

Recently I spoke with Bolivian elected representative Senator Carmen Gonzales.  She has had the courage to stand up and speak out about the repression besetting her country and it’s ever closer alliances with Iran.  She has been the object of continual harassment by the government for her vocal opposition; including being buried in lawsuits (18) designed to silence her.

Tell us about Iran's influence in Bolivia?
The influence of the Iranian theocracy in Bolivia is very wide and deep.  Iran has inked many agreements with Bolivia, both known and unknown to the Bolivian people.  I have demanded to know the extent of these agreements, but as of yet there has been no response from the leadership.   Iran is interested in our mining industry, gas and uranium.  Iran is interested in expanding its influence in Latin America, to provoke the United States. It is very advantageous to Iran to have the friendship of the Bolivian regime, with all of its natural resources, including uranium and being strategically placed in the center of the continent.

Sen. Gonzalez
But most people of Bolivia repudiate the Iranian regime: They abuse human rights, they do not respect their women and are dangerous to world peace and stability.
Recently Canada withdrew its embassy in Tehran in a clear sign that the civilized world will not tolerate the authoritarian practices of undemocratic and abusive Iran.

I am also worried as a Bolivian ,what may happen to the Jewish community here.
Recently, the Iranian defense minister was with our ruler, Evo Morales. That same minister is under orders for international prosecution, accused by an Argentine federal judge to be part of the deaths of hundreds of Jewish-Argentine AMIA (Asociación Mutual Israelita Argentina in 1994).

So, it is very dangerous for the Jewish community the fact that Bolivia has relations with Iran.

How do you see Iran’s influence shaping up in Latin America?
Our ruler Evo Morales hates everything that has to do with democracy, modernity and definitely hates the United States and what it represents. He and his regime have been dubbed the Taliban of the Andes and he himself is referred to as the Fidel Castro of the Andes. In 2008 he expelled the U.S. ambassador, Mr Philippe Golberg, in a clear sign that the Bolivian regime hates the U.S.

Since Bolivian leadership has signed agreements with Iran as well as Venezuela, there is clear worry that these countries can serve as bases for terrorist activities against neighboring countries and become a springboard for jihadism.  With Iran racing toward nuclear weapons capability, there is no doubt in many circles, that technology can filter to enemies of the US. The exporting of nuclear weapons technology to Latin America would cause huge political disruption to this region.

What can be done about this:
In Bolivia we do not like communism and citizens realized the mistake they made by giving the vote to Evo Morales in the last elections. Morales's agenda is the same agenda as Che Guevara: Establish a dictatorship the same style as Cuba. Che Guevara tried that here and we killed him for it.  Morales came to power cheating the people of Bolivia, lying that he would “change the system.”

I hope the Morales regime does not change the Constitution. In 2014 we are going to vote against him, and fire him from the Presidency. But only if he doesn’t change the constitution, like his ally Hugo Chavez did in Venezuela. Legally speaking, he cannot run for the Presidency again.  We hope the people of the US see what is happening here and lend us their support.

The US is coming face to face with a decision about what to do with Iran’s race towards nuclear capability. A nuclear capable Iran not only means a threat to our allies in the mideast, it most surely means a threat to our friends and allies in Latin America.
