When Bush was president, it was said that you could walk down the halls of the State Department and see anti-Bush cartoons pinned to buliten boards. The CIA was hostile to the Bush Administration. SecDef Rumsfeld ended CIA briefings because he got tired of the CIA reporting to the NYTimes what questions he asked or did not ask. The CIA sent a Democrat operative to Africa on a mission for the Bush White House and allowed him to write about it in the NYTimes. They also alerted the European Parliament that we were holding prisoners on European soil. A former CIA employee said one thing you won't find at the CIA is a Republican. It figures.<br /><br />Now they have what they want: a Democrat in the White House and it is not working out so well for them. The Obama administration is digging a big hole for American and that upsets me, but I do have a sense of shadenfreude when I see what he is doing to his supporters at State and Intel. buzz4https://www.blogger.com/profile/18361822062926260991noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1400985529434569506.post-60918527380178649892012-10-13T08:18:51.482-04:002012-10-13T08:18:51.482-04:00Is there any truth to the rumor that Obama was neg...Is there any truth to the rumor that Obama was negotiating with Al-Qaida to release the 'Blind Sheik', negotiations fell through so the 'hit' on our U.S. Ambassador Stevens was to kidnap him--not kill him--but it was botched?

It seems that most of the MSM are caught up in the Obama-as-Messiah paradigm, and are perhaps the most servile and uncritical media corps I have seen in over forty years of watching news. They'll probably find a way to make the failure of State the story rather than the failure of the administration.<br /><br />Although, I would like to see Hamhocks Hillary and the rest of the O's crew thrown under the bus.Kephahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00999385775493831638noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1400985529434569506.post-43304528502563119392012-10-11T19:03:59.660-04:002012-10-11T19:03:59.660-04:00Unfortunately, I don't know how to post a acti...Unfortunately, I don't know how to post a active YouTube link in this blog.
