Obama Administration Officials Threatened Whistle-Blowers On Benghazi, Lawyer Says

Re: Obama Administration Officials Threatened Whistle-Blowers On Benghazi, Lawyer Say

Oh, NOW the title matters to you....:roll: 122 posts into it, and you care about that.

From personal experience -- what a lawyer says often does not resemble the truth very much.

How about what four career officials at the State Department say? Does it matter?

 
Re: Obama Administration Officials Threatened Whistle-Blowers On Benghazi, Lawyer Say


He not only said it, he said it with some glee. And yet the electorate keeps voting for guys like these. Nancy Pelosi as well.
It's truly astonishing.
 
Re: Obama Administration Officials Threatened Whistle-Blowers On Benghazi, Lawyer Say


First it was a video.
Then a Big OOPS!
Then there was silence.
Then we learned it was a terrorist strike.
We learned Obama was... disengaged... and went to NV.
Then the clarion call by the Leftists and his journ-O-lists/propagandists... Ahhh... no time now... we're having an election.

After the election we hear from Sec. of State Clinton... What difference does it make...?

and now...

Benghazi happened a long time ago.

Quite the game Team Hussein Obama is playing.

You are being inaccurate. the 'unnamed' career officials are hinted to be in both State and CIA. Please try and keep at least a small amount of accuracy in your posts.

I would say the career officials hiring lawyers is a smart move and means nothing more than being smart. (For all you know they could be the ones who screwed the pooch and not whistleblowers)

And lets hear them say instead of trying to speculate what it means. Congress can call anyone to a hearing, and the BushII administration was great at dodging, and using national security to not have to respond to Congress. how about we let this play out past the bloggersphere/Fox Noise?

Where am I being inaccurate? I quoted the OP!

This is what the very first line says-
Where is the inaccuracy?
 
Re: Obama Administration Officials Threatened Whistle-Blowers On Benghazi, Lawyer Say


A great strategy! They stall and stall and stall until they can claim it all happened a long time ago. Their supporters will buy that too.

They haven't said anything, it has been Toensing....and she has a lousy track record when it comes to truth.
 
Re: Obama Administration Officials Threatened Whistle-Blowers On Benghazi, Lawyer Say

Actually they did say something through their lawyers, as the OP makes clear.

Where is your justification for your claim against Toensing? Accusations like that deserve some support.

If you don't know Toensing, her long history in private practice defending various neocon Bush members (Shaha Ali Riza (Wolfowitz's girlfriend), Scooter Libby in the Plame scandal), maybe you ought to review instead of asking me.

One of the "State Dept Officials" has talked to her, she is has said nothing specific other than making baseless accusations which is her stock and trade over the last 20 years.
 
Re: Obama Administration Officials Threatened Whistle-Blowers On Benghazi, Lawyer Say


No, you're the one who made the claim that "she has a lousy track record when it comes to truth".

Where is your evidence?

Gimme some truth!

YOU said four (4) State Officials, the OP is either State or CIA Officials.

That is drift, such as 350 rounds per PERSON in the army vs 350 rounds per OFFICER.

You can take the time to cite the entire line.

Did you choose your handle with intended irony?

Here is what I said, quoted form the OP.
Do you see the number four (4) there?
 
Re: Obama Administration Officials Threatened Whistle-Blowers On Benghazi, Lawyer Say

Yes, you did. I don't know who you are trying to convince otherwise. But that **** don't float here.

No, I did not. I very clearly attacked the absurd idea one should not be allowed to question questionable sources. Good God, I already drew you one picture, even a kindergarten student understands when you draw him a picture. But fine, I'll draw you another, though I'm not going to put nearly the amount of effort into this one. Follow the trail of the thread up to my post.

Statement made which tried to Poison the Well against any who would question the source -> Me pointing out the absurdity of saying people cannot question the source -> Argument

Article discussion continuation


Does that help? Do you understand now? Are you ready to quit telling me what I said, when I'm the one who wrote it, I'm the one who knew what I meant and its wording is clear for all to see?


Your response was completely expected. Duplicity and hypocrisy are common traits of the left.

Good to see you fit the mold.
:lamo

What the flying screw are you talking about? So because you completely misunderstood what I said, even when it's clear as crystal to anyone with an IQ larger than their shoe size, I'm now duplicitous and hypocritical? That cannot make sense, even to you. What is the matter with people and the inability to understand even the simplest of words and phrases?

Go back and read what I said again. I never once said it didn't matter who was responsible for murdering the four Americans, I said we shouldn't worry about who on our side dropped the ball (at this point) and instead focus on the why of how the process failed. Just go back and read it again and if you have an ounce of integrity you'll apologize.

Thanks for proving my point...One post, first attack on the source....good job

What would you expect? Looks to me like you instantly saw the incredibly weak sourcing of Fox News and Washington Times and did a preemptive defense of pretending to be Nostrodamous when in fact it seems you knew the sources were terrible.

Re: Obama Administration Officials Threatened Whistle-Blowers On Benghazi, Lawyer Say

Here is what I said, quoted form the OP.

Do you see the number four (4) there?

Again I will remind you, you didn't include the CIA in the post I noted...you are dodging my point. But even at that, no real proof of anything but what one Republican operative claims. Until the supposed career CIA and State people step up it is just gossip.

It proves nada.
 
Re: Obama Administration Officials Threatened Whistle-Blowers On Benghazi, Lawyer Say

I didn't have to prove anything except that I quoted the OP. That's it.

Here's the post.
Apparently you didn't see the number four (4) earlier and now you claim you can't read Central Intelligence Agency (CIA).

The "real proof" is yet to come, yes. But we do know that
Please re-read the sentence and get it clear before you respond again.
 
Re: Obama Administration Officials Threatened Whistle-Blowers On Benghazi, Lawyer Say


Yeah, yeah, yeah.... everybody in this thread but you is stupid. Nobody is smart enough to understand you. We've heard it over and over again.

It's very obvious that you and your ilk don't want to find out who's behind the curtain controlling the conversation. We prefer to hold the people responsible for these deaths accountable, including both the ones in Libya and in our government.

Perhaps the shoe you mentioned fits you.
 
Re: Obama Administration Officials Threatened Whistle-Blowers On Benghazi, Lawyer Say

Obama was asked the question, and he said he'd look into it. So there you have it, we're good to go. He said he would check it out. :mrgreen:
