If they have them, why don't we?





Gingrich: Networks may have White House emails commanding counterterrorism group to stand down on Benghazi rescue



“There is a rumor — I want to be clear, it’s a rumor — that at least two networks have emails from the National Security Adviser’s office telling a counterterrorism group to stand down,” Gingrich said. “But they were a group in real-time trying to mobilize marines and C-130s and the fighter aircraft, and they were told explicitly by the White House stand down and do nothing. This is not a terrorist action. If that is true, and I’ve been told this by a fairly reliable U.S. senator, if that is true and comes out, I think it raises enormous questions about the president’s role, and Tom Donilon, the National Security Adviser’s role, the Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta, who has taken it on his own shoulders, that he said don’t go. And that is, I think, very dubious, given that the president said he had instructions they are supposed to do everything they could to secure American personnel.”











Of possible additional interest: Donilon pegged as likely White House mole

"A fairly reliable US Senator." Now that's just pitiful that one needs such a qualifier.

Lost me at "There is a rumor."

Here is a fact: Newt is a marginal player in American politics because he is a dunce and loser.

If anyone wanted to leak damaging Banghazi emails, they would send them to Fox and the world would already know about.

((And I hate myself for knowing how to spell 'Benghazi.'))

Thinking back just a few years, and paraphrasing, "Obama lied and Americans DIED!"

Where are the screaming masses of unwashed Hippies surrounding the White House when you really NEED them?

I agree with Esteve that it's pitiful the qualifier is needed. But you gotta admit, it narrows the field some!

Oh Helly, don't hate yourself - hate the man in the WH that killed our brethren, thus making you ever so cognizant of the spelling of the city.
