The Scandal That Will Bring Obama Down

Interesting article. What do you think?

It’s even worse than we previously thought. A retired four-star admiral is now claiming that Barack Obama intentionally conspired with America’s enemies to stage a bogus attack and the kidnapping of an American ambassador so he could “negotiate” the release of a “hostage” and bolster his mediocre approval ratings just prior to the election!

The Washington Examiner, quoting retired Four-Star Admiral James Lyons, writes: “the attack on the American Consulate in Benghazi… was the result of a bungled abduction attempt…. the first stage of an international prisoner exchange… that would have ensured the release of Omar Abdel Rahman, the ‘Blind Sheik’…”

But something went horribly wrong with Obama’s “October Surprise.” Although the Obama Administration intentionally gutted security at the consulate prior to the staged kidnapping, former Navy SEALs Tyrone Woods and Glen Doherty disobeyed direct orders to stand down, saved American lives, single-handedly killed scores of attackers…and the attackers, believing that Obama had betrayed them, tortured Ambassador Chris Stevens and dragged his body through the streets.

Some will say that Admiral Lyons’ accusation is not a smoking gun. We agree; that’s exactly why Congress must investigate Benghazi-gate.
Moreover, we firmly believe the problem with Admiral Lyons’ assertion is that he is only scratching the surface; the full and complete truth may be much, much worse.

Benghazi-gate is not about a bogus YouTube video series of lies. It’s not about the Obama Administration’s foreign policy ineptitude. We are dealing with something much more sinister… something potentially treasonous… and the following questions, posed in an article in The New American, go to the heart of the matter:

1. ”What was the Obama administration’s full role in helping violent Jihadists, self-styled al Qaeda terrorists, and Western-backed “revolutionaries” take over Libya in the first place?

2. Did that half-baked scheme to arm Jihadist leaders, who… had previously fought U.S. troops in Iraq, contribute to the attack, as countless experts and officials have suggested?

3. What was actually going on at the compound in Benghazi, which, as the report states, was never a “consulate” despite establishment media claims?

4. Was Ambassador Stevens recruiting and arming Jihadists and terrorists to wage war on the Syrian regime after what Obama called the “success” in Libya, as a growing body of credible evidence suggests?

5. Why did the administration claim for so long that the attack was just a “protest” over a YouTube video gone awry, even when it knew definitively that was not the case?

6. Was the lack of security at the compound a political ploy to conceal the extent of the lawlessness and utter chaos left in the wake of Obama’s unconstitutional “regime change” war on Libya, as even members of Congress have alleged?”

It’s clear. Benghazi-Gate is only a small piece of a much larger operation, an attempt to conceal what The New American calls “the Obama administration’s full role in helping violent Jihadists and self-styled al Qaeda terrorists.”

Prior to the election Barack Obama continually told us that “Osama bin-Laden is dead and GM is alive”; but the sad truth is that Osama bin-Laden’s organization is alive and well, and the Obama Regime may be giving aid and comfort to this terrorist network.

And prior to the election, Fox News’ Geraldo Rivera pontificated that Republicans shouldn’t “politicize” Benghazi-gate. Swaggering onto the set of Fox and Friends, Rivera bloviated: “I think we have to stop this politicizing.” And Rivera issued the following veiled warning to Republicans: “Do we want to try and influence the election with a tragedy that happened in North Africa?”

Ironic, isn’t it? Barack Obama played politics with the lives of Americans; like Rivera, the media covered Obama’s rear and threatened to accuse anyone and everyone who mentioned it of “playing politics.”

Weak-willed Republicans apparently took Rivera’s threat to heart as Rivera also said that Republican Senators John Barrasso, James Inhofe, and Bob Corker, who all sit on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, “all agree that the supercharged atmosphere around the story — prudence dictates that these hearings be postponed until” after the election.

Well, the election has come and gone. Congress now has no excuse. The American people needed the truth before the election; but now that Obama is back in the White House, real conservatives must demand answers.

The American people deserve to have those questions answered; and moreover, the American people deserve justice.

A lot of unanswered questions. I wonder how severe Hillarys memory loss will be when/if she gets in front of an congressional investigative panel? That damn clot.

The Republicans have been kneecapped by a dishonest media and Obama ....they are helpless idiots who want to ignore their core supporters....

Nothing will come from the benghazi investigations.

FOUR MORE YEARS!

Clearly we have not been told the truth about what happened in Benghazi. Obama and his representatives have told one obvious lie after another in an attempt to spin their way out of this mess.

I don't think the Republicans in the House will do anything to seriously investigate the matter. They'll do just enough to make it look like they've done due diligence. The bottom line is, I don't think the Republicans want to find the real truth; because then they would be forced to impeach Obama. At this point, I think the Republicans in the House are guilty of willful ignorance.

There's no way the Democrat controlled Senate would ever vote to remove Obama from office, no matter how serious his crimes were. If by some miracle, Obama was impeached and removed from office, we'd probably have something resembling a race war.

Kinda like the twin towers conspiracy on Bush?

Get over it boys. you keep looking under rocks, Unawhiner, and eventually you'll find a rattlesnake.

sooner better than later.

As ever, people just repeat the lies and never check it out. Surely not some deliberate mistake?

I did a bit of googling. CoG doesn;t know how to do that, unless it fits with his prejudices.

I could find no evidence that Lyons said anything of the sort.

I read this http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/...ll-unanswered/ which is very recent and there is no mention.

Let me quote from a comment on http://thehollowearthinsider.com/archives/11610 which summarises it better than I could in the couple of seconds it is worth.

Can your crediility descend any lower?

QUOTE:

Regarding the claim that retired four star admiral James Lyons said that Obama conspired with enemies.
You said: “The Washington Examiner, quoting retired Four-Star Admiral James Lyons, writes: “[T]he attack on the American Consulate in Benghazi… was the result of a bungled abduction attempt…. the first stage of an international prisoner exchange… [that] would have ensured the release of Omar Abdel Rahman, the ‘Blind Sheik’…”
HOWEVER. It turns out that the Washington Examiner had no such article. It never even interviewed Admiral Lyons.
http://washingtonexaminer.com/search?search=admiral+lyons#.U PB24_KtmvA
There IS an article by Admiral Lyons in the Washington TIMES (perhaps you got the two mixed up). HOWEVER, while the article talks a lot about mistakes by the administration, it does NOT claim that Obama conspired with enemies to stage a mock attack that went horribly wrong—-or that he conspired with enemies at all. There is NO mention of conspiracy in the article. (http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2012/oct/28/lyonsobama-needs-come-clean-what-happened-benghazi/?page=all)
A blog known as The Examiner (which is not the Washington Examiner) did say that “Sources suggest the Benghazi attack was a bungled abduction attempt (Photos)”. And it quoted Admiral Lyons in a TV interview, but it did not say that Lyons said: ““[T]he attack on the
American Consulate in Benghazi… was the result of a bungled abduction attempt…. the first stage of an international prisoner exchange… [that] would have ensured the release of Omar Abdel Rahman, the ‘Blind Sheik’…”
Lyons did NOT say it, and the Blog “the Examiner” quotes its unknown
and untested sources saying that it MAY have happened, not that it did happen. (http://www.examiner.com/article/some-sources-suggest-the-benghazi-attack-was-a-bungled-abduction-attempt).
And yet birthers and the birther press believe such stories.

It is one thing to claim that the Obama administration was negligent on security issues and is now trying to conceal or downplay their errors.

It is quite another to claim that the Obama administration actually plotted with the Islamists to attack our own embassy.

Posting this lie is a disgrace. A child could figure out all the ways that it must be fake.

Don't feed the troll.....
