Three State Department officials have reportedly resigned as a result of the sanitized “scathing” report released yesterday. Word is that Eric Boswell, the assistant secretary of state for diplomatic security and Charlene Lamb, the deputy assistant secretary responsible for embassy security, stepped down under pressure after the release of the report. A third person evidently worked for the Bureau of Near East Affairs and has not been identified.
COMMENTS:
This is a typical “sacrificial lamb”
ploy used in an effort to deflect investigations into wrongdoings. We’re supposed to believe that the Benghazi
Massacre was the fault of these three people and drop it. In the meantime, every single person who should be called to testify including
Obama and Clinton, has been shucking, ducking, bobbing and weaving more than
Cassius Clay ever thought of doing.
TODAY’S QUERIES & ANSWERS:
Q. Obama says he believes Americans are entitled to own
guns, but that the NRA and others need to work together to come up with appropriate
answers to growing gun violence. He
thinks there needs to be a list of requirements for someone to buy a gun. What’s your answer to that? (Zubert ~ San Pablo, CA)
A. Beware of government enacting laws for the protection of
betterment of its citizens. It sounds
good, but I don’t trust Obama as far as I can throw him. That’s not to say that I don’t agree with
those who want to prevent another Newtown.
In the Newtown case, the mother should have removed the guns from the
house, but she didn’t. She was the
registered owner. Did she ever take a
gun safety course as is required in California and other states? I don’t think so, or she would have known
better. That type of legislation I’m in
favor of, as well as background checks including determining mental
stability. But, even these things must
be coupled with an examination of the sociological factors leading to mass
murders.
Q. What about this former Marine Hammar who is in a Mexican
jail? (Demmi ~ Gardnervile, NV)
A. Yes, he declared his antique gun as he entered the
country. But, the prison he is in is run
by a Mexican drug cartel. You also have
a President who is impotent in dealing with such matters; once again, the United States is being held
hostage. We are dealing with this
situation the same way we have dealt with the Benghazi Massacre, and how we are
handling the North Koreans and the Iranians.
I have said for several years now that any American who wants to be a
tourist in Mexico is out of his tree.
The danger there is too high.
Q. TIME has again
named Obama as “Person of the Year.” I
just know you must have some caustic comment.
(Troy ~ Los Alamos, NM)
A. No, I don’t have any comment, other than to say that I don’t
read trashy magazines.
