    I had hoped he would eventually run for public office. It's been awhile since we had a General as POTUS.

    There is more to this story than meets the eye!!!

    Especially in light of the Benghazi hearings that are about to start next week.

    Congress can still call him, and likely will.

    One of the military Fox commentators on Cavuto's show just said what many of us had been saying---that the timing was very suspicious. He said that the affair had been known for some time and came right out and said that the thugs (he worded it more graciously) chose to bring it up now. They want to squelch his testimony. If he is called up by Congress now, he's damaged goods. His successor will carry the water for the administration.

    I hope the country reflects on what a vicious administration they've elected. God help us all. The murder in Behghazi will never have the truth see the light of day. Good little Acorn people, particularly Chicago ones, make sure that truth doesn't emerge.

    This is certainly good news for Linda, I think she was expressing her worry that Dear Leader might be exposed.

    Who said it?

    It would seem to me that it's Congress's business who does and doesn't testify.
    In most sports, cold-cocking an opposing player repeatedly in the face with a series of gigantic Slovakian uppercuts would get you a multi-game suspension without pay.

    In hockey, it means you have to sit in the penalty box for five minutes.

    Sorry, It was reported by Neal Cavuto of Fox. Do you honestly think if Lord O doesn't want the General to
    talk that he will???

    What will the President do? He's a private citizen now. Short of his car break lines suddenly breaking... I hope we're not that ready to go off the deep end on conspiracy theories yet.

    If Congress subpoena's him to testify, then he's obligated to.
