Focus On Christ, and Truth, During Post-Trial Frenzy

During this frenzied time of  post-trial madness, it can be overwhelmingly frustrating to see all of the unwarranted propaganda being spewed by so many who want to keep such  spiteful hate going on here in America.  At least some of us see right through such schemes.

People, my hope remains in my Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ!  No matter what bizarre things are occurring out in the world, He is MY world.  Jesus told us that he "is not of this world."  As followers of Christ, WE are not of this world either.

Why?

Jhn 14:27 “Peace I leave with you, My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.

Jhn 15:19 “If you were of the world, the world would love its own. Yet because you are not of the world, but I chose you out of the world, therefore the world hates you.

Jhn 17:14 “I have given them Your word; and the world has hated them because they are not of the world, just as I am not of the world.

Jhn 17:16 “They are not of the world, just as I am not of the world.

Jhn 18:36 Jesus answered, “My kingdom is not of this world. If My kingdom were of this world, My servants would fight, so that I should not be delivered to the Jews; but now My kingdom is not from here.”


Those that hate Christians hated Christ first!!  As Jesus said in the verse above, "If you were of the world, the world would love its own.  Yet because you are not of the world, but I chose you out of the world, therefore, the world hates you.

My dear Christian brothers and sisters, if the world hates you, then you are in good company...the company of Jesus Christ our Lord!

I think that this explains why secularists, Marxists, atheists, race-baiters, and particularly Islamists can all  "coexist" together in one big soup of evil.  They all hated Christ first, and therefore, hate us second.

One comment made by George Zimmerman during an interview he had done made me think that he is a Christian.  He had learned that his action of self-defense against his attacker ended up being a gun shot wound that tragically killed Trayvon Martin.  He stated that it was a "sin" to kill someone.  He felt that way because of the Ten Commandments.  However, in the case of self-defense, where it was a live or die situation when Martin said those very words to him (You're gonna die [expletive]); in such a case as that,  shooting in self-defense is not a sin.  Zimmerman obviously felt remorse that the teen died.  But that is lost on the rabidly vicious media pundits, individuals, and groups that are claiming "we all are Trayvon."  Well, at least one author was brave enough to tell the truth about it all:


Slate.com: You Are Not Trayvon Martin His death wasn’t about race, guns, or your pet issue. It was about misjudgment and overreaction—exactly what we’re doing now to the verdict.


This morning, there was a segment on Fox News where the discussion was about the Rolling Stone magazine putting the living Boston Bomber on the cover.  Apparently, it is a sympathetic article about him.  But ask yourself, why would they do that?  Why are they siding with a radical terrorist who purposely killed and maimed so many people? 

And why is the media of mass deception continuing to stir up trouble, interviewing  people who spew racism when it's not warranted, and sympathize with those who hurl death threats at George Zimmerman?

My question:  Why isn't Attorney General Eric Holder investigating all of the death threats against George Zimmerman?  What is wrong with this picture, people???

The TV audience was "trained" to feel sorry for the girl who reluctantly (supposedly) testified at the Zimmerman hearing.  I think that we all had sympathy for her concerning her obvious lack of education.  However, when she appeared on MSNBC recently, does this sound like an individual who wanted to stay out of the public eye due to embarrassment? She only put herself into deeper trouble and even more embarrassment!

Excerpt:

Prosecution witness Rachel Jeantel, whose testimony hurt the state’s case against George Zimmerman according to a juror, continued the damage Monday night in a CNN interview, apparently acknowledging that Trayvon Martin was beating George Zimmerman before he was shot and presenting conflicting interpretations of the term for which she will forever be associated, “creepy a– cracka.”

In an interview with CNN’s Piers Morgan, Jeantel insisted that Zimmerman and the jury didn’t have the cultural awareness to understand that Martin wasn’t giving the defendant a “bashing” but merely a “whoop-a–,” Breitbart News noted.

Jeantel, who was on the phone with Martin shortly before he was shot by Zimmerman Feb. 26, 2012, explained: “They don’t understand, they understand, ‘Oh, he would just bash, or was kill.’ When somebody bash somebody, like, blood, people, trust me, in the area I live, that’s not bashing. That’s just called “whoop-ass.” You just got your ass whooped. That’s what it is.’

Hear the first report of Trayvon’s “homophobic slur,” in Molotov Mitchell’s “For the Record.”
Breitbart’s Joel Pollack noted Morgan tried to save Jeantel’s statement by asking her whether Martin would have “whooped a–” in self-defense, but the damage was done. The camera, he pointed out, caught a member of the audience reacting in shock at Jeantel’s admission.

Zimmerman was acquitted Saturday night by a six-member, all-female jury in Sanford, Fla. The news has been followed by protests nationwide and a call for a civil rights investigation by the Justice Department.

In the interview, Jeantel also expounded on Martin’s alleged use of the term “creepy a–cracka” to describe Zimmerman but gave two different definitions.

At one point, she suggested it meant somebody acting as a police officer, which fit the prosecution’s portrayal of Zimmerman as an overly zealous cop-wannabe.

But she also used the term to describe a homosexual rapist:

MORGAN: You felt that there was no doubt in your mind from what Trayvon was telling you on the phone about the creepy ass cracka and so on, that he absolutely believed that George Zimmerman, this man, you didn’t know who he was at the time, but this man, was pursuing him?

JEANTEL: Yes.

MORGAN: And he was freaked out by it?

JEANTEL: Yes. Definitely after I say may be a rapist, for every boy, for every man, every — who’s not that kind of way, seeing a grown man following them, would they be creep out?

“And people need to understand, he didn’t want that creepy ass cracker going to his father or girlfriend’s house to go get — mind you, his little brother was there. You know — now, mind you, I told you — I told Trayvon it might have been a rapist.”

Did that sound like someone who was "reluctantly put on the stand" at the trial or more likely a plant being portrayed sympathetically on purpose...who is now being told what to say?

Now...you tell me.  If she was a white Christian woman who disparaged a black man, policemen,  and homosexuals, do you think that Piers Morgan would have gone berserk?  Of course he would have!  But in this case, the sympathetic voice of a young black woman who testified for prosecution  (even though she actually ended up helping the defenses' case!) ends up giving her a pass on the insults.

There are hundreds of comments after that article, but one caught my eye and I'm sharing it here:

I  read many and I mean MANY reviews / comments on here. None of you
truly understand the real issues we face. The republican party work hand
and hand with the exact people you are all complaining about. Do you
not understand this is done for ONE reason? The reason is simple keep us
divided into Race / Religion issues! Black vs White / Christian vs
Muslim / Innocent vs Guilty ! They do this to keep our attention away
from what is REALLY going on! The fact is the United States of America
does NOT print it's own money! We have to borrow money from the Federal
Reserve! WHAT IS THE FEDERAL RESERVE EXACTLY? It's all the answers to
all the things you never got taught in your life it's the reason why we
are divided! 11 private banking families OWN the FED they control 80% of
the worlds printed "FAKE" "WORTHLESS" money! Why do we have wars? So
these same people who own the FED can take control of the other 20% of
the world money they don't currently print! You all think your so smart
with all your little comments you act like you understand the world NONE
of the comments I have seen here show any of REAL knowledge about why
these stories are so important for the media to talk about. They can't
afford for you all to wake up and start really learning things! Keep
them FIGHTING !!!!! Keep you glued to the TV to your social media
connection FEED those morons another reason to divide! That will keep
them all sleeping like a baby. Once you learn who the FED really is and
who the real players all it honestly becomes very simple to align the
dots. You take the BLUE PILL and find out how deep this rabbit hole
really is. You will understand that the movie the matrix wasn't a movie
it was a real thing where you all have been living and learning exactly
what you were suppose to like a good SHEEP! That's what you all happen
to be SHEEP sleeping away the truth ! Hope you wake up soon!

Millions of Americans must be thinking the same thing!  Keeping this "trial" going, even though it has ended with the CORRECT VERDICT is being done INTENTIONALLY (led by corrupt ring leaders like Eric Holder, Al Sharpton, and Jesse Jackson) in order to keep the focus off of all the scandals.

1.  Benghazi
2.  IRS
3.  NSA
4.  Targeting of Rosen of Fox News
5.  Guns killed more people as result of Fast and Furious scandal.
6.  BHO's birth certificate is verified as 100% forgery.

I could probably keep that list going for a mile!  But these are the most recent scandals THAT ARE NOT BEING INVESTIGATED AND PROSECUTED!!

So you see, dear readers, this is all being done by design.  It is MONEY, POWER, AND CORRUPTION that keeps the Zero BADministration going.  ANYTHING AND ANYONE who can keep the focus off of the GENUINE CRIMES going on, are being used to block the truth from coming out!


The individuals and groups that are doing these things are exchanging the truth for a lie:

Rom 1:28 And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a debased mind, to do those things which are not fitting;

Rom 1:29 being filled with all unrighteousness, sexual immorality,[fn] wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, evil-mindedness; they are whisperers,

Rom 1:30 backbiters, haters of God, violent, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,

Rom 1:31 undiscerning, untrustworthy, unloving, unforgiving,[fn] unmerciful;

Rom 1:32 who, knowing the righteous judgment of God, that those who practice such things are deserving of death, not only do the same but also approve of those who practice them.


The book of Jude informs us that these things will increase the closer we get to the end times.


 
Scripture tells us why true believers are those who know and believe that Jesus was sent by the Father.  In Jesus' prayer to His Father, he informs us:



Jhn 17:5 “And now, O Father, glorify Me together with Yourself, with the glory which I had with You before the world was.

Jhn 17:11 “Now I am no longer in the world, but these are in the world, and I come to You. Holy Father, keep through Your name those whom You have given Me,[fn] that they may be one as We are.

Jhn 17:21 “that they all may be one, as You, Father, are in Me, and I in You; that they also may be one in Us, that the world may believe that You sent Me.

Jhn 17:24 “Father, I desire that they also whom You gave Me may be with Me where I am, that they may behold My glory which You have given Me; for You loved Me before the foundation of the world.

Jhn 17:25 “O righteous Father! The world has not known You, but I have known You; and these have known that You sent Me.

The Administration: Scarier Than You Could Imagine [Updates!]

In a recent blog post here at Talk Wisdom, I requested readers here to view a documentary entitled Agenda: Grinding America Down. I also posted this information at the TEA Party Community site. [It is a conservative alternative to Face Book]. Yesterday, I sent an email out to relatives, friends, fellow bloggers, and acquaintances, encouraging them to view the documentary. 

After viewing the documentary, you will completely understand why Obummer and his ilk think nothing of spying on everyday Americans using all social media available - under the guise of "keeping America safe."

Remember this?

Snowden speaks: Washington Examiner: Edward Snowden: I mistakenly believed in Obama’s promises.

Also see this video!! The Guardian: NSA whistleblower Edward Snowden: 'I don't want to live in a society that does these sort of things' – video


I truly believe that when we are well aware of the past and are shown how liberalism/ socialism/progressivism/communism has infiltrated America, we will finally realize how we got to this huge level of corruption in government in Washington D.C.  Hopefully, such an understanding will lead us to be better prepared and equipped to fight against it.  What is sorely needed is a break through the media of mass deception that doesn't care that Obama is a wannabe dictator,  and get the truth out to the public.

I was very heartened to read that several TEA Party Community friends have viewed the video.  Here is what some of them had to say:

Thanks, Christine! I appreciate the videos. I do know a little bit about how Communism came into this country. Anything by John Earl Haynes and Harvey Klehr are great on this subject, as well as Paul Kengor's books ("The Communist" as well as "Dupes").

Also, I own "Hollywood Party," by Kenneth Billingsley, and it's an account of how Communists took over Hollywood, from the early 1930s-late 1950s/early 1960s.

Thanks so much, ma'am, and God Bless!

Is there a connection? Homosexuality acceptance, family deterioration, abortion (women’s lib.), no prayer in schools, wealth distribution, racism, evolution, freedom of speech, repression of dissention, gun control, Obamacare, environment (the latest), school indoctrination, church apostasy, capitalism, anti Christianity, increased socialism, individual moral values, and desire for change.

Hitler and Stalin did most of these things, especially gun control, school indoctrination of youth, anti-Christianity, socialized medicine (Obamacare), racism, wealth distribution, and the others were affected too.

 

Yep, we are headed there by design of the Communist Party and its hotbed at the University of Berkeley.

Continuing with blog post:

With all of the criminality that is happening and surrounding this ObaMARXIST BADministration, have you noticed that NO ONE is being held accountable?

Why is that??

 Well, I think that Lloyd Marcus has written an essay over at American Thinker that will answer that question.

The Administration: Scarier Than You Could Imagine

at American Thinker - 7 hours ago

Folks, when are we going to hold these people's feet to the fire?

 

Excerpt:

 

If a tree falls in the woods and no one hears it, does it make a sound?  If the Obama administration breaks the law at will, lies to the American people, uses every government agency at its disposal to punish its conservative/Republican enemies and no one does anything about it, does the administration make a sound?  Yes it does -- resulting in devastating consequences for the American people.

Despite a trifecta of scandals, Obama and company continue to stonewall, lie, or refuse to answer questions -- in essence, giving Congress and the American people the finger.  Pundits are shocked and taken aback by the unprecedented arrogance of the Obama administration.

Such pundits are a bit late coming to the dance, as we in the Tea Party have been well aware for years of the lawlessness and arrogance of this bunch of thugs from Chicago.  Have these surprised pundits forgotten Obama's unprecedented overreaches into the private sector -- nationalizing General Motors, bullying banks, ignoring the ruling of federal judges, trashing the Constitution, and more?

Still, pundits are missing the much greater horrifying picture.  My fellow Americans, we are in deep, deep trouble.  The cold reality is that until someone steps forward in real opposition to Obama governing according to his will while ignoring all the laws, checks, and balances, we are defenseless, expendable supplicants of a tyrannical dictator.

Remarkably, the mainstream media is complaisant with Obama acting like our king rather than our president because he is liberal, he is black, and his presidency is historic.  Obama's agenda fits neatly with the mainstream media's socialist/progressive agenda.  So they are elated to have a Teflon liberal black guy in the White House furthering their cause.

Speaking of expendable supplicants, let us not forget Ambassador Chris Stevens, Tyrone Woods, Glen Doherty, and Sean Smith, who lost their lives -- left to die in our consulate in Benghazi.

The people in the Obama administration are emboldened to do whatever they please: bully conservative groups and individuals, secretly invade our privacy, target reporters, and thumb their noses when they get caught -- all without any real political push-back or consequences.  We the American people are in deep excrement.

Ponder that, folks.  As long as the mainstream media provides cover for Obama and keeps his poll numbers high by making sure no bad news is linked to Obama (Limbaugh Theorem), our president is empowered to function as a supreme ruler, free to do whatever he pleases to us.  Dear God, help us!

Obama is the first black president.  Okay, I get it.  But neither Obama's black skin nor the mainstream media's rabid desire to protect his legacy should award him imperial dictator status, trumping the best interest of the American people.

What is even scarier, is the fact that whistle blowers are either fearing for their lives or the lives of family members, demoted (as in the case of Benghazi whistle blower, Greg Hicks), and finding no recourse for protection. 

Today, the recent revelation of the whistle blower in the NSA snooping and surveillance scandal could either be deemed  as Fox News Channel website currently describes him:

"Hero or traitor?  The question is...Can Feds Get Him?"

From Fox website:

Ex-CIA employee Edward Snowden, who claims to be source of leaks about US government's monitoring and collection of phone and Internet records, reportedly is holed up in Hong Kong and is seeking asylum from 'any countries that believe in free speech' — as feds work to extradite him and call grows to 'prosecute him to the fullest extent of the law.'

A Message To Remember

Hat tip:

Reccie Wright Cleary from TEA Party Community

Today I watched Apocalypse II: Revelation on the Daystar network. It was made back in 1999 and I haven't seen it in over 10 years, so it was good to watch it again.

From Wikipedia:

Apocalypse II: Revelation is a 1999 Christian/thriller and sequel to Apocalypse by Cloud Ten Pictures.

Three months have passed since the events of the previous film. Franco Macalousso (Nick Mancuso) has convinced many of those left behind that he is the true Messiah. But is he?
Counter-terrorism expert Thorold Stone (Jeff Fahey) tries to put the pieces of his life together. His wife and daughter were among the millions who vanished in the Rapture. In the course of his investigation of an underground resistance movement, he uncovers a conspiracy that leads to the heart of the new world order. Stone throws in his lot with this group of rebel Christians, which includes journalist Helen Hannah (Leigh Lewis), a computer engineer working for One Nation Earth (Tony Nappo), and a beautiful blind cynic (Carol Alt). The "Haters" find themselves in a race against time as the World Government distributes Virtual Reality headsets to every single person on Earth, to be activated on the Messiah's "Day of Wonders".

The rest of the description at the Wikipedia link (re:  the plot) has a lot of spoilers in it, so I recommend viewing the movie first.

My favorite movie in this series has always been Judgment. But Apocalypse II: Revelation ranks as a close second favorite.

The O.N.E. (One Nation Earth) theme is eerily similar to what we are experiencing during the BHO years of government surveillance, lies, deceit, crimes, and rampant corruption.  The obvious persecution against Christians is like no other time in American history.   We are the last group that is now labeled as "deserving" of hatred, suppression, lies being spewed against us, and frowned upon to enjoy the freedom to share the name of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ in the public arena without ridicule.   Like in the film, Christians these days are often referred to as "haters" [i.e. by radical homosexual activists, Islamists, atheists, skeptics, Hollywood - you name it!] and the rabid hatred against us and the  attempts to suppress the name of Jesus Christ from the public square has been more and more evident over the last two decades.

The so-called "Arab Spring" has led to tens of thousands of deaths - both Muslims and Christians - because ObamaFRAUD and his ilk thought it would be a good idea to remove the dictators of those countries and attempt to replace them with radical Islamists like the Muslim Brotherhood. Now our government clowns are arming the rebels who are actually Muslim terrorists!   The slaughter of Christians who were previously protected in these Arab lands has ratcheted up and churches are being burned for no other reason than for hatred against Christ and those who believe in Him.

Back to the movie.

What is very interesting to see in this film is how the so-called O.N.E. "messiah" - Franco Macaluso - utilizes signs and miracles (healing a man in a wheelchair and a blind woman in the film) in order to fool those who were left behind (after the Rapture of believers from the earth prior to the Great Tribulation years) into giving up their souls to satan and taking the "mark of the beast."

People who do not know the Bible will be easily fooled by the antichrist, the beast, and the false prophet - one big unholy trinity designed to take the souls of those who heretofore have rejected Christ as Lord and Savior.

Ten years ago, I thought that the end times were still very far off. I even thought that we really weren't experiencing the "birth pangs" that Jesus warned us about as signs pointing towards the coming of the end of the age. But now, with this lawless, tyrannical, corruption filled ObaMARXIST BADministration, I see the "birth pangs" becoming a reality right before my very own eyes.

The fact that so many Americans were fooled into voting for ObamaFRAUD a second time speaks volumes about how easily many Americans will also be fooled by the coming antichrist. Maybe all of the scandals connected to Obama [those known, as well as those not so well known yet] and the current "1984" type Big Brother government snooping and surveillance; plus the attempts to take away our Constitution rights of free speech, our liberty, our freedom of association, our freedom of the press (except for the government controlled patsies), and the grab of our gun rights will awaken more Americans to smell the tyranny! The added sins of omission through the lack of any prosecution for wrong doing by government officials and workers, as well as the lack of justice from those who swore to uphold the Constitution should chill the hearts and souls of every American!  Could we possibly be so lucky as to see BHO not finish his second term in office?

No matter how bad it gets, we can take consolation in this:  God is ultimately in control and Jesus Christ wins in the end. We just need to hold onto His promises as we watch, work, and wait for His return for His own (born-again believers) when we will be caught up and will meet the Lord in the air and thus, will be with the Lord forever!

Have a blessed Sunday!

According to PJM - More Benghazi Whistleblowers With Info Devastating to Obama and Clinton

First, prayers go out to all of those who have lost loved ones and have been deeply affected by the awful tornadoes in Oklahoma.

Bible Prophecy is becoming more and more a reality with each passing year regarding all that is happening in the world the closer we get to the end times. (See Matthew 24)


Jesus has a plethora of messages to us in Matthew 24. However, the following portion of the prophecy has been ratcheted up over the past 5 years:

  Mat 24:9 "Then you will be handed over to be persecuted and put to death, and you will be hated by all nations because of me.

  Mat 24:10 At that time many will turn away from the faith and will betray and hate each other,

  Mat 24:11 and many false prophets will appear and deceive many people.

  Mat 24:12 Because of the increase of wickedness, the love of most will grow cold,

  Mat 24:13 but the one who stands firm to the end will be saved.

Yes!  God's ultimate plan for us will continue despite all of the attempts to thwart it.  As Christians, it is our DUTY to watch, WORK, and wait for the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ on the clouds of heaven!  Part of that work is to warn others of the evil that is keeping them from being reconciled back unto God through Christ's sacrificial death on the cross at Calvary, His subsequent Resurrection from the dead, and ultimate Ascension into heaven to sit at the right hand of the Father.

The Bible (NIV version) also informs us:



Mar 4:22 For whatever is hidden is meant to be disclosed, and whatever is concealed is meant to be brought out into the open.

  Mar 4:23 If anyone has ears to hear, let them hear."


And, please take heed of  this (NKJV):


  Luk 8:11 "Now the parable is this: The seed is the word of God.

  Luk 8:12 "Those by the wayside are the ones who hear; then the devil comes and takes away the word out of their hearts, lest they should believe and be saved.

  Luk 8:13 "But the ones on the rock [are those] who, when they hear, receive the word with joy; and these have no root, who believe for a while and in time of temptation fall away.

  Luk 8:14 "Now the ones [that] fell among thorns are those who, when they have heard, go out and are choked with cares, riches, and pleasures of life, and bring no fruit to maturity.

  Luk 8:15 "But the ones [that] fell on the good ground are those who, having heard the word with a noble and good heart, keep [it] and bear fruit with patience.

  Luk 8:16 "No one, when he has lit a lamp, covers it with a vessel or puts [it] under a bed, but sets [it] on a lampstand, that those who enter may see the light.

  Luk 8:17 "For nothing is secret that will not be revealed, nor [anything] hidden that will not be known and come to light.

  Luk 8:18 "Therefore take heed how you hear. For whoever has, to him [more] will be given; and whoever does not have, even what he seems to have will be taken from him."


Keeping such Scripture in mind, we now proceed with this post.


All of the distractions being thrown out there in Obama Confusionland, thankfully, aren't working to stop the ongoing deeper investigation into the Benghazi Cover-Up.  The following link provides exclusive information:

PJM EXCLUSIVE: Ex-Diplomats Report New Benghazi Whistleblowers with Info Devastating to Clinton and Obama



Obama Lie Du Jour: 'I'm Not Familiar' with Whistleblowers Being Threatened [Hat tip:  Commieblasters].

Copy of PJM Exclusive post:

More whistleblowers will emerge shortly in the escalating Benghazi scandal, according to two former U.S. diplomats who spoke with PJ Media Monday afternoon.

These whistleblowers, colleagues of the former diplomats, are currently securing legal counsel because they work in areas not fully protected by the Whistleblower law.

According to the diplomats, what these whistleblowers will say will be at least as explosive as what we have already learned about the scandal, including details about what really transpired in Benghazi that are potentially devastating to both Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton.

The former diplomats inform PJM the new revelations concentrate in two areas — what Ambassador Chris Stevens was actually doing in Benghazi and the pressure put on General Carter Ham, then in command of U.S. Africa Command (AFRICOM) and therefore responsible for Libya, not to act to protect jeopardized U.S. personnel
.
Stevens’ mission in Benghazi, they will say, was to buy back Stinger missiles from al-Qaeda groups issued to them by the State Department, not by the CIA. Such a mission would usually be a CIA effort, but the intelligence agency had opposed the idea because of the high risk involved in arming “insurgents” with powerful weapons that endanger civilian aircraft.

Hillary Clinton still wanted to proceed because, in part, as one of the diplomats said, she wanted “to overthrow Gaddafi on the cheap.”

This left Stevens in the position of having to clean up the scandalous enterprise when it became clear that the “insurgents” actually were al-Qaeda – indeed, in the view of one of the diplomats, the same group that attacked the consulate and ended up killing Stevens.

The former diplomat who spoke with PJ Media regarded the whole enterprise as totally amateurish and likened it to the Mike Nichols film Charlie Wilson’s War about a clueless congressman who supplies Stingers to the Afghan guerrillas. “It’s as if Hillary and the others just watched that movie and said ‘Hey, let’s do that!’” the diplomat said.

He added that he and his colleagues think the leaking of General David Petraeus’ affair with his biographer Paula Broadwell was timed to silence the former CIA chief on these matters.

Regarding General Ham, military contacts of the diplomats tell them that AFRICOM had Special Ops “assets in place that could have come to the aid of the Benghazi consulate immediately (not in six hours).”

Ham was told by the White House not to send the aid to the trapped men, but Ham decided to disobey and did so anyway, whereupon the White House “called his deputy and had the deputy threaten to relieve Ham of his command.”

The White House motivation in all this is as yet unclear, but it is known that Ham retired quietly in April 2013 as head of AFRICOM.

PJ Media recognizes this is largely hearsay, but the two diplomats sounded quite credible. One of them was in a position of responsibility in a dangerous area of Iraq in 2004.

We will report more as we learn it.

Update:  My friend Donna sent the following information to me via email.  Hat tip:  http://raymmax.wordpress.com/  [Note:  It is a private blog site and permission needs to be granted by owner in order to see it.]

This is the former Deputy Assistant Secretary that was working in the region of Benghazi. These two poems highlighted in yellow seem to be his poetic statement of what happened. In the first one he mentions a very low frequency which some have speculated that maybe the military was communicating with the White House in something like Morse Code. The Queens Henchmen sounds a lot like Hillary, don’t you think?

It is very interesting……..

Benghazi-disciplined diplomat a prolific poet

Raymond Maxwell -- one of the four State Department officials disciplined over security lapses that led to the attack on the U.S. Consulate in Benghazi, Libya, last year -- is also a prolific poet. And he's been publishing provocative verses since he was put on administrative leave December 18.

Former Deputy Assistant Secretary for the Maghreb Region Raymond Maxwell during a visit to Algiers, in a photo taken sometime between November 2-5, 2011.

/ U.S. Embassy Algiers

Some of the poetry represents scathing commentary on the post-Benghazi fallout and implies that he feels like he's been made a scapegoat. In "Trapped in a purgatory of their own deceit," Maxwell writes in part: "The web of lies they weave / gets tighter and tighter / in its deceit / until it bottoms out - / at a very low frequency - / and implodes...Yet all the while, / the more they talk, / the more they lie, / and the deeper down the hole they go... Just wait.../ just wait and feed them the rope."

It's a bold and almost shocking verse from the 20-year foreign-service worker who was the well-respected deputy assistant secretary for Maghreb Affairs in the Near East Bureau and former Chief of Staff to the Ambassador in Baghdad. Fluent in Portuguese, Maxwell is also an ex-Navy "mustanger," which means he leapt from enlisted ranks to commissioned officer.

An African-American, Maxwell makes use of lynching imagery in his poem entitled "Invitation," a commentary about being put on administrative leave December 18th after the State Department's Accountability Review Board (ARB) criticized pre-attack security in Libya.

U.S. Ambassador Christopher Stevens and three other Americans were killed in terrorist attacks at U.S. missions in Benghazi. Poor security was faulted by the ARB review board. Former U.S. ambassador Thomas Pickering, who led the review, was quoted in the final, unclassified report as saying blame was fixed "at the assistant secretary level...where the decision-making in fact takes place, where...the rubber hits the road." The ARB, in essence, was seen to have cleared higher-ranking State Department officials, including then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, of direct fault on the issue of inadequate security.

It's unclear as to exactly what Maxwell and the other disciplined managers allegedly did wrong or how they were chosen for discipline. Three are on paid administrative leave. When asked for more details, the State Department did not respond prior to publication of this report.

Maxwell declined an interview, saying his poetry best expresses what he has to say.

Raymond Maxwell: Former Deputy Asst Secretary Removed Over Benghazi Pens a Poem

In December 2012, the NYT reported [see: http://www.nytimes.com/2012/12/20/us/politics/3-state-dept-officials-resign-following-benghazi-report.html?_r=1&] that four State Department officials were removed from their posts after an independent panel criticized the “grossly inadequate” security at a diplomatic compound in Benghazi, Libya, that was attacked on Sept. 11, leading to the deaths of Ambassador J. Christopher Stevens and three other Americans. According to the report, the four officials “have been placed on administrative leave pending further action” citing the State Department’s spokeswoman as source.

The same report included a quote from Thomas R. Pickering, a former ambassador (and former #3 at the State Department) who led the independent review who said this: “We fixed it at the assistant secretary level, which is, in our view, the appropriate place to look, where the decision-making in fact takes place, where, if you like, the rubber hits the road.”

One of those four officials is Raymond Maxwell; he is also one of the three Deputy Assistant Secretaries who were thrown under the bus in the Benghazi fallout. He was the Deputy Assistant Secretary for Maghreb (North Africa) Affairs at the Bureau of Near East Affairs from 2011-2012. He advised the Assistant Secretary on the Maghreb and oversaw development, coordination and implementation of USG policy in the region. Previous to that, he was the Director of the Office of Regional and Multilateral Affairs (RMA) also at the Bureau of Near East Affairs from 2009-2011. More here [http://raymmax.wordpress.com/2013/04/01/invitation/].

Mr. Maxwell is also a poet with hopes of becoming “a music and poetry librarian in his next life.” This past April, we became aware that he participated in the National Poetry Writing Month [ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Poetry_Writing_Month] , an annual project in which participating poets attempt to write a poem a day for the entire month (see his blog http://raymmax.wordpress.com/2013/04/01/invitation/). We think one of his poems, “Invitation“is particularly striking. How can we not appreciate the dark humor of BYOB … “because of the continuing resolution?” Certainly, the poem is blunt and aims to shock but it also makes us think that as as long as one is the boss of words, one is not totally helpless. We received permission from Mr. Maxwell to republish the poem in this blog.

The Queen’s Henchmen
request the pleasure of your company
at a Lynching – to be held
at 23rd and C Streets NW
on Tuesday, December 18, 2012
just past sunset.

Dress: Formal, Masks and Hoods -
the four being lynched
must never know the identities
of their executioners, or what/
whose sin required their sacrifice.

A blood sacrifice –
to divert the hounds -
to appease the gods -
to cleanse our filth and
satisfy our guilty consciences.

Arrive promptly at sunset –
injustice will be swift.
there will be no trial,
no review of evidence,
no due process, and no
accountability.

Dress warmly -
a chilling effect will instantly
envelop Foggy Bottom.
Extrajudicial.
Total impunity.
A kangaroo court in
a banana republic.

B.Y.O.B.
Refreshments will not be served
because of the continuing resolution.

And the ones being lynched?
Who cares? They are pawns in a game.
Our game. All suckers, all fools,
all knaves who volunteered to serve -
Us. And the truth? The truth?
What difference at this point does it make?

In the event of inclement weather,
or the Queen’s incapacitation,
her Henchmen will carry out this lynching -
as ordered, as planned.

The Blaze has an article about Raymond Maxwell:

The Blaze: Beat-Up Poet? One of the Men Punished Over Benghazi Security Failures Fights Back with…Scathing Verse

Copy of post:

Raymond Maxwell is one of the four State Department officials who was disciplined due to security lapses leading to the U.S. Consulate attack in Benghazi, Libya, last year.

But after he was placed on paid administrative leave last Dec. 18, CBS News says that rather than sulk in silence and shame, Maxwell has been publishing poetry about his ordeal–often scathing verse–that can’t be making officials in Washington, D.C. applaud (or snap their fingers, whatever the case may be).

 

CBS News calls attention to his “Trapped in a purgatory of their own deceit.”

Here Maxwell writes in part:

 

“The web of lies they weave / gets tighter and tighter / in its deceit / until it bottoms out – / at a very low frequency – / and implodes…Yet all the while, / the more they talk, / the more they lie, / and the deeper down the hole they go… Just wait…/ just wait and feed them the rope.”

CBS News opines:

It’s a bold and almost shocking verse from the 20-year foreign-service worker who was the well-respected deputy assistant secretary for Maghreb Affairs in the Near East Bureau and former Chief of Staff to the Ambassador in Baghdad. Fluent in Portuguese, Maxwell is also an ex-Navy “mustanger,” which means he leapt from enlisted ranks to commissioned officer.

Maxwell uses lynching imagery in his “Invitation,” CBS News notes:

“The Queen’s Henchmen / request the pleasure of your company / at a Lynching – / to be held / at 23rd and C Streets NW [State Dept. building] / on Tuesday, December 18, 2012 / just past sunset. / Dress: Formal, Masks and Hoods- / the four being lynched / must never know the identities/ of their executioners, or what/ whose sin required their sacrifice./ A blood sacrifice- / to divert the hounds- / to appease the gods- / to cleanse our filth and /satisfy our guilty consciences…

Benghazi Is The Impeachable Offense In Current Trio of Scandals

In order to understand the current trifecta of scandals, and why the IRS one was "revealed" at the time it was made know via the press to the public, each American must familiarize themselves with the progressive propaganda machine.  Two methods often used by the ObaMAO regime are:

1.  Alinsky's Rules for Radicals - used to demonize the "other side" in politics and create a plethora of damage to our nation.

2.  Cloward and Piven Strategy to produce mayhem in order to get what progressives want done (i.e. Marxism, Islamism, Communism)  in order to destroy our Constitution and America. Most savvy conservative bloggers were onto such schemes way back in 2009. We all tried to warn the voters, but the combination of the media's slobbering love affair and their deceptive and corruption tactics enabled a horrid so-called "community organizer" to reach the highest level in our government. Well, the latest scandals have even one out of four democrats calling for Obama's impeachment! It is good to know that a majority of the people who were polled (see above link) in the WND article believe that Benghazi is the most egregious impeachable offense. Dr. Kates View blog has a post up entitled, "We Remember" As always, the post is excellent, but a LOT can be discerned about the Benghazi cover-up from some of the over 271 comments!

Here are just a few (with links to explore) that give us some "connect the dots" information that readers may not have considered or even heard about yet.

The Benghazi Investigation should determine the roles of Valerie Jarrett and David Axlerod in the quadruple murders and subsequent Obama admin. cover ups:
  
from – http://www.examiner.com/article/clinton-asked-for-more-security-benghazi-obama-said-no
Clinton asked for more security in Benghazi, Obama said no
By Christopher Collins – Examiner.com – October 25, 2012

Last night, it was revealed that Secretary of State Hillary Clinton had ordered more security at the U.S. mission in Benghazi before it was attacked where four Americans, including U.S. Ambassador Christopher Stevens were murdered by Al-Qaeda but President Obama denied the request.

http://www.video.theblaze.com/media/video.jsp?content_id=25445923&source=THEBLAZE
The news broke on TheBlazeTV’s “Wilkow!” hosted by Andrew Wilkow, by best-selling author, Ed Klein (edwardklein.com) who said the legal counsel to Clinton had informed him of this information.
Klein also said that those same sources said that former President Bill Clinton has been “urging” his wife [Hillary] to release official State Department documents that prove she called for additional security at the compound in Libya, which would almost certainly result in President Obama losing the election.

http://www.theblaze.com/stories/ed-klein-bill-clinton-urging-hillary-to-release-benghazi-documents-that-would-exonerate-her-destroy-obamas-re-election-hopes/

Klein explained that everyone knew what was happening in Benghazi from the CIA to the National Security Agency and that there’s intelligence cables that have not been released.

Wilkow asked, “If everybody knew this including the White House, who would have given the order to go in and save the ambassador?”

Klein, “The President… he should have given the order to use the rapid reaction force…”
Wilkow, “Not Petraeus?”

Klein, “Well it has to come from the president.”

Wilkow also asked Klein about Valerie Jarrett who’s the Senior Advisor to Obama and Assistant to the President for Public Engagement and Intergovernmental Affairs, and her role in this cover-up.

Klein said, “We don’t know but we can only assume that every action that the president takes, and he said so, he is on the record saying “I don’t take any actions without passing it by Valerie Jarrett”… so we have to assume that Valerie Jarrett whose also by the way, hooked into the Chicago campaign line… she has a direct line to David Axlerod, was a part of this whole cover-up in the White House.”

This latest news comes on the heels when the Paulding County Republican Examiner reported that former CIA officer, Clare Lopez was a guest on the Glenn Beck TV on Monday evening and told Beck, “They let our ambassador and others die. In real time, watching it happen, and they didn’t do anything about it.”

*******

Now, some people may not know much about Valerie Jarrett.  She is the "in the dark shadows of the regime" so-called 'advisor' of BHO.
 

See THIS POST for more information about Jarrett. She's an evil woman - to say the least!
Recall the following quote from Jarrett:



It may be difficult to read, on the graphic, so here's the quote:

QUOTE:

“After we win this election, it’s our turn. Payback time. Everyone not with us is against us and they better be ready because we don’t forget. The ones who helped us will be rewarded, the ones who opposed us will get what they deserve. There is going to be hell to pay. Congress won’t be a problem for us this time. No election to worry about after this is over and we have two judges ready to go.”

** Photo credit: Billy R. from Tea Party Community



Now class, please tell me who "everyone not with us" includes? 

The TEA Party? 

Pro-Life Advocates? 

Traditional marriage advocates? 

9/12 Project members? 

Christians? 

Oh yeah....and aren't these the very same groups that were harassed and targeted by the IRS?  Coincidence?  I don't think so!!!

But when we examine the trio of scandals rocking the ObaMARXIST BADministration right now, the IRS one (as bad as it is) still pales in comparison to the Benghazi cover-up.

That Crazy Benghazi Conspiracy Theory? It Just Got Less Crazy

http://directorblue.blogspot.com/2013/05/that-crazy-benghazi-conspiracy-theory.html
” Hostage swap … Under this operating theory, had all gone according to plan, the Obama administration would have secretly facilitated the capture of Ambassador Stevens. This would have permitted Obama to safely trade the Ambassador through the release of the Blind Sheikh. All of this would occur, of course, just before the election. Obama would take very public credit for Stevens’ safe return as well as a newly strengthened relationship with Egypt’s Morsi.”

” Not only did the president go to sleep after getting word of the attack, but it appears he also refused security briefings in the aftermath of the attack, instead simply departing for a fundraiser in Las Vegas. The theory being: the President didn’t need to stay awake after hearing of the attack. He didn’t need any briefings. He knew exactly what had happened.”

3 Reasons why Benghazi still matters…

 

email Comment from Charlite via h/t Joan Swirsky:

Study Chris Stevens carefully while recalling that this video was posted in its entirety by Al Jazeera, then picked up by cable and network outlets. It’s much longer than this one freeze frame, and it includes dozens of onlooker locals loudly proclaiming, “He’s ALIVE! He’s ALIVE! Allahu Akbar! He’s ALIVE!!!”

What is the significance of this? First, study Stevens. If he had already died, there would be no color in his face. It would be ashen. Furthermore, dead people cannot hold their heads up! He was dazed and semi-conscious. You can determine that from his blank stare, but there is no doubt whatsoever that Stevens was alive and that the onlookers were joyful. Why were they joyful? Why were they not tossing candies and sweets around while praising the ‘brave Ansar Al-Sharia Jihadists’ for having killed an American ambassador?……..Because those surrounding the facility knew and had known for some hours or days that Stevens was going to be kidnapped and then exchanged for Abu Rahman, one of the most ‘revered Islamic scholars’……..and a close friend and ‘hero’ to none other than fellow Egyptian Muhammad Morsi. The entire Jihadi underground knew all about what was going to happen on 9-11-12 in Benghazi.

This 9-11-12 stunt was pre-arranged at least since April of 2012 when Lady Macbeth signed her first of a half-dozen refusals to oblige Stevens and the facility in Benghazi with more security. Why was denial of security an essential element in this story, which was a heinous plot?………..because Hillary via Huma Abedin had guaranteed Morsi that Stevens would be an easy five minute smash and grab target. It was essential to Hillary’s plan that Stevens be totally unprotected. The surrounding crowd knew that. Only Stevens and the entire group of personnel in Tripoli and in Benghazi were unaware. Hence their increasingly frantic calls for extra security. Hence Hillary’s order to REMOVE twelve of the sixteen security personnel from Libya on August 12!! She not only refused an increase in security, which they were begging for, but less than one month before this arranged kidnapping plot, she left them with only FOUR security in Tripoli. Woods and Doherty were two of those four, and they both died because this treasonous regime continued to issue ‘Stand Down’ orders, or not to respond at all to their pleas for help. Three top generals and one admiral were FIRED within a day of 9-11-12 because they were preparing to disobey Soetoro’s ‘Stand down’ orders and to provide life saving help to their besieged fellow military people.

You heard Hicks tell the Issa committee on Wednesday that Stevens was at a hospital run by Ansar Al-Sharia. That’s correct. He was obviously taken there immediately after having been extracted from the safe room at the facility. The hospital staff worked for several hours trying to revive him! Why?…………..because Morsi via Abedin to Hillary had guaranteed the CIA and State Dept. conspirators that his Jihadis on the ground (Ansar Al-Sharia) would produce a LIVE HOSTAGE. Instead, they had to tell Morsi that Stevens had expired from smoke inhalation in the hospital. The ground team had set fire to the building when Stevens wasn’t located immediately, which Hillary had promised. They DID NOT KNOW that there was a safe room inside of the facility, nor that the safe room had no exit. They calculated (mistakenly) that if they started a fire, it would drive their intended hostage target out of the building and into their hands. That error in judgment explains this deadly SNAFU. It also explains the 4 to 6 hours during which Stevens’ whereabouts were unknown.

Once he had died in the hospital, and Morsi’s thugs saw that Woods and Doherty had come to rescue survivors and taken them to the annex, a truly deadly assault began on the annex because at that point the Morsi operatives were FURIOUS. They thought that they had been betrayed, so they attacked the annex for real……………..and all of this is what B. Hussein, Hillary and all of these deadly maggots are still trying to conceal. This is the true story. The Libyan version of Fast and Furious gun running is still true and still a scandal, but that’s NOT what this specific operation on 9-11-12 was about. It was a ‘one off’ operation to appease Muhammad Morsi who demanded that Rahman be freed and returned to Egypt. I’m amazed that no one has understood this even at the highest levels among conservative commentators, investigators, writers, radio talk show hosts, print and Internet journalists.

Now watch this 2 minute, 17 second video, but hit the STOP button at 29 seconds and ask yourself how a dead man would appear in this condition – no facial pallor, no slumping head, eyes glazed and unfocused indicating barely conscious, but certainly this is NOT a photo of a deceased Chrisopher Stevens. Incidentally, the original airing of the entire sequence from which this one freeze frame was taken shows several of the Libyan kidnappers passing Stevens through an open window. He is holding his head up, legs not dangling lifelessly while the crowd yells, “He’s ALIVE.” He was supposed to be alive! – a live hostage. Why isn’t this obvious?

Remember Lame Cherry was on this immediately in September 2012 when it happened…the 4 hours stevens was missing was when he was tortured and raped..smoke inhalation does not produce the gashes on his head and stains on his clothing and absence of clothing in other pictures. Did they throw him back into the hideout before the others found him or did it happen on the way to the hospital?…there was a double cross involved somehow…and the ambassador died not only from internal trauma but smoke inhalation.

*******

After what we learned via Greg Hicks and the other whistle blowers who testified at the House hearing last week, as well as the write-up from Charlite at Joan Swirsky's blog,  the "kidnapping of Stevens" theory makes more sense...doesn't it?

There are over 200 more comments that I could post here.  It might be worth your while to read them at Dr. Kate's blog.

Conclusion:

Even though there is embarrassment involved with the IRS scandal, it might be difficult to prove that ObaMARXIST had anything to do with it.  However, the Benghazi scandal whistleblowers have already revealed that Obummer, Hitlery, Biden, and others have LIED THEIR PANTS OFF in the Benghazi cover-up!  Of all the scandals, THAT is the one that could lead to Obama's impeachment and dismissal from office. 

They all belong in JAIL!!!

Congressional Hearing: IRS Targeting of Conservative Groups

I'm watching the Congressional Hearing on the IRS targeting of Conservative groups on C-Span 2. They are now (at 8:00 a.m. PT) taking a 15 minute break so I thought that I would come on my blog and share some thoughts, comments, and links.

My first reaction at the time the break occurred was how UNBELIEVABLE this entire dog and pony show is becoming.  The witnesses being questioned are involved in stonewalling, evading, and trying to steer their answers away from any semblance of directness (or even respect for) to the Congressmen asking pertinent and direct questions that often only require a yes or no answer.

How outgoing IRS head Steven Miller could blatantly lie with a straight face that, "the actions were not politically motivated" is beyond comprehension!

The Fox News website certainly got it right when they wrote as the headline on the front page that ObaMAO's BADministration is guilty of being a "culture of cover-up."  I would add that it is a culture of corruption, too!

Fox News: Outgoing IRS chief apologizes for 'foolish' targeting, GOP rep calls program 'tip of the iceberg'

The members are heading back into the room so I will continue later.  However, I will also post additional links discussing this latest scandal.

Early this morning, I was listening to and watching the last portion of C-Span's interview with Representative Charles Boutsany When it was time for callers to weigh in on the discussion, a man from Ohio (I believe) stated that he and his family were audited and targeted because they home school their children. Apparently, the IRS agent that visited them for an audit told them that unless they could come up with a signature from someone (including a bus driver) at a local public school, they could not take the tax exemption for their home schooled children!! Is that absolutely outrageous or what??? We know that this BADministration is against homeschooling (see the case where the German family is being deported back to their country because homeschooling is illegal there) because they have always been against vouchers, charter schools, and homeschooling. Why? Because they want to indoctrinate all subsequent generations into their government run ideological prisons (see Common Core) and when parents take them out of the socialistic jails known as "public schools," the children will more likely reject such indoctrination being dumped into the minds of children who are being brainwashed (more like brain-dirtied) in such schools.  More about this in future posts.

Update:  According to Phyllis Schlafy, the dictators of Common Core will also infiltrate ALL kinds of schools!!!

Excerpt:

It's not only public schools that must obey the fed's dictates. Common Core will control the curriculum of charter schools, private schools, religious schools, Catholic schools and homeschooling.

Back to the topic.

I have just learned about the following article over at Red State.  The "connect the dots" information such as this article will eventually lead directly to the ObaMAO White House!!


Meet the Partisan Union Behind The Partisan Internal Revenue Service A union of government tax collectors that opposes small-government Conservatives & anti-tax Tea Parties--and Obama doesn't want a special prosecutor...Coincidence?



Excerpts:

The IRS & Executive Order 13522

In December 2009, during the first term of his presidency, in an effort to make the federal government more “union friendly,” President Obama issued Executive Order 13522.
 
In short, as noted in 2011, Executive Order 13522 establishes “labor-management forums” between union bosses (who may or may not be federal employees) and federal agency management.
As part of the directives under Executive Order 13522, agency heads are to engage union bosses in “pre-decisional discussions” before decisions are made–and those discussions are to be in secret and outside the purview of the Freedom of Information Act.

Pre-decisional discussions, by their nature, should be conducted confidentially among the parties to the discussions. This confidentiality is an essential ingredient in building the environment of mutual trust and respect necessary for the honest exchange of views and collaboration.

Coincidentally, among the agencies covered by Executive Order 13522 is the Internal Revenue Service, which is part of the Department of the Treasury, and whose agency employees are represented by the National Treasury Employees Union.

The fact that, under Executive Order 13522, federal agencies are being co-managed by union bosses and it appears that the perpetrators of the IRS scandal are likely to be members of the IRS union makes one wonder how coordinated the attacks were–especially as four of the alleged perpetrators are claiming their bosses made them do it.

More importantly, if their bosses made them engage in potentially illegal activities, why didn’t they go to their union to file a grievance?

No Need For Special Prosecutor?

That Barack Obama, his fellow Democrats and their union boss allies have demonized Conservatives and the Tea Party (in general) is not new. It’s been occurring since 2009 and has been especially vociferous since the 2010 mid-term elections.

However, given the quickness that Barack Obama stated there is no need for a special prosecutor in light of the IRS scandal–especially given the extent of known coordination that goes on between the White House and union bosses on messaging and election-year tactics–makes one wonder if there is more to the controversy than a few “rogue” IRS workers.

In fact, it seems that, given the power that an agency like the IRS has, as well as the extent of power union bosses have been given witinh federal agencies under Executive Order 13522, there is more need than ever to have a special prosecutor look for the root of the scandal.

Despite the fact that the President feels there is no need for a special prosecutor, as the IRS scandal continues to escalate, more questions will be raised than will be answered by Eric Holder’s Justice Department or through a Congressional inquiry.

The questions that should be asked and answered do not stop with the convenient scapegoating of one already-leaving agency head, and a few “rogue” employees.

It will take a special prosecutor to get to the bottom of it.
