Krauthammer Says the Obama/Clinton 10:00 PM Phone Call May Be ‘The Biggest Scandal Of All’

Hillary Clinton’s State Department Accountability Review Board also never interviewed the two highest ranking individuals directly dealing with the attack. It did not interview Hillary Clinton or Gregory Hicks. Hicks was the highest ranking official at the embassy after the Ambassador Stevens was killed. Hicks was on the phone with Clinton at 2 Am during the attack.

Never interviewed. Security was actually reduced in the weeks leading up to the attack, even though there was a huge hole the wall surrounding the compound. During the attack, no military assets were deployed and senior officers seeking to respond were told to stand down. Some have been since been relieved of their duty or reassigned.

Do not accept that someone else will cover this. Many of us served in the military so you would have the freedom to exercise your First Amendment rights.

Contact talk radio. Howie Carr. Call the Chump line. Call Michael Graham. Write a letter to the editor. All of you.

Call Rush. Sean Hannity. O’reilly, Caputo. Keep banging the drums. MAKE THIS IMPORTANT.

Call your congressmen. Does not matter that they ignore you. Stand up and be counted.

Include all that is written above. It is not being covered because those in power do not want it covered. That is why they are attempting to put the entire focus on the “talking points” and every other stupid thing they can.

If the people will lead, the leaders will follow.

n response to The Obama/Clinton 10:00 Phone Call:
On the O’Reilly Factor, tonight, Charles Krauthammer brought up the 10:00 pm phone call between Hillary Clinton, and Barack Obama, whose activities on the night of the 9/11 attack in Benghazi have yet to be scrutinized. What did he do for those eight hours? Krauthammer posited that the answer to this question could be the biggest scandal of all.
Via Gateway Pundit:

I think there is a bigger story here that will in time come out. The biggest scandal of all, the biggest question is what was the president doing in those eight hours. He had a routine meeting at five o’clock. He never after during the eight hours when our guys have their lives in danger, he never called the Secretary of Defense, he never calls the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs, he never called the CIA Director, Who does he call? But five hours in he calls the Secretary of State. And after the phone call she releases a statement essentially about the video and how we denounce any intolerance. It looks as if the only phone call is to construct a cover story at a time when the last two Americans who died were still alive and fighting for their lives. There’s the scandal and that has to be uncovered.”

Watch the video at the link.
As you may remember, Clinton said in a statement following the 10:00 pm phone call; “some have sought to justify this vicious behavior as a response to inflammatory material posted on the Internet. The United States deplores any intentional effort to denigrate the religious beliefs of others. Our commitment to religious tolerance goes back to the very beginning of our nation.”
We now know that the talking points were manipulated to conceal the truth about what happened and pin the blame for the attack on a spontaneous demonstration against the “inflammatory” Youtube video. The Regime would continue the ruse until it was no longer tenable.
That 10:00 phone call may well be genesis of the YouTube video narrative.
One wonders if Obama consulted his longtime consigliere, Valerie Jarrett at some point between 5:00 pm and 10:00 pm…. Her role as Obama’s most trusted advisor has permitted her to involve herself in even the most sensitive foreign affairs.

That would surely be the case in this instance in light of Wall Street Journal columnist Peggy Noonan’s insightful observation:
“The Obama White House sees every event as a political event . Because of that, it could not tolerate the idea that the armed assault on the Benghazi consulate was a premeditated act of Islamist terrorism. That would carry a whole world of unhappy political implications and demand certain actions. And the American presidential election was only eight weeks away. They wanted this problem to go away, or at least to bleed the meaning from it.”

To rephrase Sen. Howard Baker famous questions from an earlier congressional investigation of a presidential cover-up called Watergate: What did Ms. Jarrett do, and when did she do it?

And why did they think they could get away with it? Because as Andrew McCarthy noted at NRO, they had always gotten away with lying in the past. There was no reason for them to think they wouldn’t get away with it, again.
