Well, now…Retired Secretary of Defense Robert Gates has written a book, “Duty” which will be released within days and IN that book, he lets loose on several things but, the one that is raising the most eye brows, is the revelation regarding both Hillary and Obama and their opposition to the 2007 surge in Iraq.
Let’s get a few things straight here before we delve into the ramifications and the meaning of that bombshell.
First…Robert Gates has served this country through various administrations. He was the Deputy CIA Director for Reagan…The Deputy National Security Advisor and later, the CIA Director for Bush 41…And, the Secretary of Defense for Bush 43…A position he was asked to continue, by Obama.
Gates became the only career CIA OFFICER ever to rise to the level of CIA DIRECTOR and the only questionable activity in his record was due to the Iran/Contra affair but…
In the final report from the Independent Counsel for Iran-Contra Scandal, Gates was deemed, “close to many figures who played significant roles in the Iran/contra affair and was in a position to have known of their activities. The evidence developed by Independent Counsel did not warrant indictment…”
Gates’ service clearly, was driven by patriotism rather than partisanism.
There are those who claim he is doing nothing in this book except grinding an old axe but…

To be completely candid, there aren’t very many Members of Congress that I, or anyone for that matter, trust but, Trey Gowdy is one of the handful I would trust 24/7 365.
Let’s get something straight.
