What in the hell was former Deputy Director of the CIA, Mike Morrell, TALKING about last Wednesday under sworn testimony before the house committee?
Seriously…
WHAT THE HELL???
He agreed to appear at the hearing, to in his words, “Lay out the facts,” regarding the altering of the CIA’s Benghazi talking points memo because, again in his own words, “The ethical code under which intelligence officers carry out their responsibilities calls for total objectivity.”
What followed was, in fact, THE most SUBJECTIVE testimony, full of abject contradictions, he could have possibly delivered.
It was, to be blunt, nothing less than a stunning exercise in ass covering that left more questions than it answered including one very important query…
Exactly who’s ass was he covering FOR???
Michelle Bachmann, who doled out perhaps THE most pointed and forceful line of questioning during the hearing has her theory on that answer.
According to congresswoman Bachmann, Mike Morrell was, “taking the fall” for Hillary Clinton.
“She couldn’t have a better person to take the fall for her because Morrell was involved in rewriting the talking points as he was the No. 2 at CIA,” congresswoman Bachmann related to WND in a candid interview. Bachmann was submitting that Morrell was cleaning up the mess to allow Hillary, “WHAT DIFFERENCE, AT THIS POINT, DOES IT MAKE” Clinton to make a 2016 run for the oval office, “so, he can come in authoritatively [and] say, ‘No, that’s not the story. The story is the fake story we tried to push.'”
Perhaps but, Morrell would also have to be confirmed in 2016 and, the way things are shaping up for the 2014 midterms, even IF Hillary runs and wins, she may well be facing a republican majority in the house AND the senate rendering such a confirmation highly unlikely.
That said…
Okay…So I missed writing the Fume last week. I knew you could Fume on for ONE Friday without me.
As we have an election in a short 8 ½ months, primaries in just 3 months and, since we haven’t done this sort of thing for the last 15 months or so…I thought now might be a good time for a refresher course in how to LOSE an election.
For some time now, I’ve been saying that if YOUR elected Member of the house isn’t Trey Gowdy…YOU need to go and FIND your district’s Trey Gowdy and ELECT her or him in 2014.
The Dictator and his regime just keep rolling merrily along, telling their subjects that all is well and Obamacare is the greatest thing since the invention of the banana republic.
The only real obstruction to the Keystone XL pipeline now, much to the dismay of those on work release from (environ)mental asylums, is the Dictator, Obama.
Oh boy…Where do I even begin with this week’s list of liberal lunacy???
Liberals and socialists in congress are lining up against their Dictator because they know they don’t stand a snowball’s chance in hell in the 2014 midterms if they don’t.
ilies and the strength of our economy are all riding on getting health care reform right and doing it well. That means we have to do it together.”
