Bob Woodward Takes Down Obama

Very strong stuff from Bob Woodward criticizing The One’s administration regarding Libya. These (the first link and this one) are two excellent videos. In the second, Woodward concludes that “anyone in the intelligence community knows that [Obama’s brags about having hobbled al Qaeda] are not true.” 

Look, there are times when Woodward’s reporting takes leave of strict factual accuracy. But those in the know have always said that Woodward has always had particularly good sources in the intelligence community, going back some 40 years. 

Plus, as the perfect leading indicator for Washington conventional wisdom, Woodward signifies very bad news for a liberal if he comes down as hard on said liberal as Woodward did today in these two videos.

Woodward tilts definitely left, but like a one-man pack of African wild dogs, instinctively picks out the sick and wounded to pull down. When a Democrat loses Bob Woodward it's a strong sign of impending failure.

Can't access the videos but in general I'll just say that Woodward's commentary would mean little to me. IMHO anyone with normal intelligence and a smidgen of common sense should be able to figure out that these domestic terrorists are all lying concerning this situation. There is a terrific article on yesterday's Braitbart concerning a possible political rift developing between the Clintons and this WH over the latter's seemingly attempt to throw the Secty of State under the bus and to blame same for the lack of security in Banghazi. I've been waiting for this to occur for years now and if it explodes right before this election, so much the better. Maybe some truth about this situation may develop over same. Sure hope so, since to me it is dispicable and deplorable to allow an ambassador to be fatally sacrificed politically !!!!!

Corruption and ineptitude.

a clear case of security for Americans serving overseas being compromised for the express purpose of furthering a campaign narrative-Ambassador Stevens died in furtherance of Obama/Biden 2012...is it any wonder that he did a photo-op with the Ambassador's casketed remains????

Nobody likes Barry.

I really could care less whether or not anyone likes him, but I do hope and pray that they vote for the other guy in November for the sake of this nation!!!!!!!!!!
