Benghazi fall guy poll results.

Posted By CotoBlogzz

In our most popular CotoBuzz Journal poll ever, conducted over the weekend, and even as new details emerge on the utterly mismanaged Benghazi cover up, there are questions as to the role General Petreaus' played in the national deception which blamed the video for Ambassador Stevens' death.

The actual poll reads as follows:

President Obama is not on campaign trail today. Apparently someone will take the fall for Benghazi and resign this weekend. Who is the likely fall guy?

And you voted as follows:

Sec. of State Hilary Clinton -  (19%)

General David Petreaus - (3%)

National Intelligence Director James Clapper -  (38%)

Secretary Leon Panetta -  (7%)

Big Bird - (30%)

As far as we know, James Clapper is still employed, while anonymous sources tells the CotoBuzz Journal that Bib Bird's demise is planned for Thanksgiving

Thanks all for participating - keep your efforts to hold the current administration, ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN, LA TIMES & NY TIMES accountable.

EPIC TRANSFORMATIONAL POLITICS

by Chriss Street

The Founding Father crafted the Constitution to make sure that the President of the United States had weak domestic powers by constitutionally requiring that all tax and spending bills must originate in a House of Representatives elected every two years. This was designed to make it extremely difficult for any President to wield enough power to permanently change the country in an unpopular fashion.

The Congressional Democrats achieved an election mandate in 2008, but Barack Obama won a much more mundane Presidential victory. After ramming through policies equally unpopular with conservatives and progressives, Barack Obama actions have caused an epic surrender of the Democratic Party’s mandate to the Republicans.

The 2008 election was a mandate for the Congressional Democrats. They successfully ran on a platform of domestic change and reform at the height of the economic crisis. They accumulated a 10 percentage point advantage in party registration and 12 percentage point advantage in voters “leaning” Democrat versus Republicans. The Democrats dominated the Congressional elections by gaining 13 million more votes than the Republicans. Democrats captured another 21 seats to amass a 79 seat majority in the House. They also gained 7 seats in the Senate for a 16 seat majority.

But Democrat Barack Obama was elected President with only 52% of the votes cast. More than half of the 56 Presidents elected have received higher percentages of the popular vote. Richard Nixon in 1972, Lyndon B. Johnson in 1964, Franklin Roosevelt in 1936 and Warren Harding in 1920 won true mandates by winning over 60% of the vote.

Over the next four years, Obama’s arrogantly acted like he won a historic mandate squandered the Democrat’s mandate. According the Wall Street Journal:

“Obama misread his Republican opponents from day one. If he had been large-spirited and conciliatory he would have effectively undercut them, and kept them from uniting. Instead he was toughly partisan, he shut them out, and positions hardened. In time Republicans came to think he doesn’t really listen, doesn’t really hear. So did some Democrats.”

In fact, lots of Democrats have not only abandoned Obama, they have abandoned the Democratic Party! Since 2008, the Republicans Party has captured an 11% change in registration from the Democrats and 15% party affiliation change.

Party Affiliation	Democrat	Republican	Affiliation Change
2008 Registration	39%	29%	+10% Democrat
2008 Lean	54%	42%	+12% Democrat
2012 Registration	35%	36%	+11% Republican
2012 Lean	49%	46%	+15% Republican

Most Americans understand that the rejection of President Obama’s authoritarian nationalization of healthcare and egregious regulatory Executive Orders motivated independents to launch the powerful Tea Party Movement. But they are generally not aware that the President has created a rebellion among progressive who plan to boycott his re-election. Some of these powerful progressive rejectionists include:

Camille Paglia is disappointed that Obama ran as a moderate, but has been “one of the most racially divisive and polarizing figures ever. I think it’s going to take years to undo the damage to relationships between the races.”

Matt Stoller in Salon.com last week published: “The Progressive Case Against Obama.” Stoller states: “The bailouts and the associated Federal Reserve actions were not primarily shifts of funds to bankers; they were a guarantee that property rights for a certain class of creditors were immune from challenge or market forces.”

Conor Friedersdorf wrote in The Atlantic: “Why I Refuse To Vote For Barack Obama.” He states: “I’d have thought more people on the left would regard a sustained assault on civil liberties and the ongoing, needless killing of innocent kids as deal-breakers.”

Barack Obama ran for President four years ago as a transformation candidate. Since that time, he has energized conservatives and undermined many progressives. His transformational legacy will be the politician who handed the Democrat’s epic mandate to the Republicans.

Posted by CotoBlogzz

Rancho Santa Margarita, CA - I am not sure about you, but I am offended that the President of the United States takes a tragedy like Hurricane Sandy to promote his political agenda:

President Obama "monitoring" Sandy

He freely releases photos as evidence that he is I control and to demonstrate leadership, while ordering state and federal bureaucracies to "cut through red tape and do everything possible to bot leave anyone behind.".

The President instituted the 15-Minute Rule for government officials calling the White House e

for issues related to Super storm Sandy: White House staff is to respond within 15 seconds from when a call is first received. Ambassador Stevens got the Never-Never Rule: As in you call for help three times and you are told, "no help for you"!

Weeks after ambassador Stevens was murdered in Benghazi, we still do not know whether the President issued similar orders to not leave anyone behind, and if he did, whether his orders were ignored. Instead, the President left the situation room, went to Las Vegas, and partied all night

What does the Secretary of Apologizing say about emails posted on social media asserting the attacks were terrorist attacks?

Emails in social media is not evidence, but in Clinton-speak, apparently YouTube videos she previously used as an excuse for her and the President's Apology tour, constitute evidence.

President Obama "Monitoring" the Benghazi massacre

I am not sure about you, but I view the President's behavior offensive.

Lingering Questions on the death sentence for the Coto de Caza Summerhill Oak Tree

LETTERS

To: CZ Master Association board president Robert Varo

October 30, 2012

Dear Mr. Varo:

The Summerhill Oah Tree is not a fire hazard - OCFA

Coto de Caza, CA - As You can clearly see from the enclosed documents from the Orange County Fire Authority your property management company completely lied and misled the Coto golf club into believing the fire authority had ordered your GM Ms. Davis to have the oak tree on their property behind my house cut down last Monday. My question is why did she do this?

Did she do this out of spite and her personal hatred and dislike for me? Did she do this because my neighbor has been asking her to have the tree cut down to improve his view for 10 years. Or did she just take it upon herself to lie and deceive people as she has been proven to do several times in the past. I also question how Ms. Davis was authorized and allowed to spend association trust fund money to hire a tree arborist to evaluate the oak tree behind my house on property you don’t even own?

As a matter of fact I further question Ms. Davis spending association trust funds to hire your friend Harkins to write me a nasty disgusting slanderous 7 page letter full of lies and half-truths just to attack me and try and save her job and the UPS contract for her friend Jones.

Now as you know Sir I have completely divorced myself from Keystone and your

board because of the way my family and I have been treated for the past year ever since I moved to Coto. That being said, however, this kind of deceitful behavior on the part of your management company needs to be looked into. As board president you have an obligation to your residents to never condone this kind of behavior by anyone connected to The CZ Master Association. I will assume you will investigate this matter promptly and report your findings to the board at your earliest convenience.

Thank You.

William Kirkendale

PRESIDENT OBAMA MUST RELEASE THE TRUTH ABOUT BENGHAZI

by Chriss Street

We have continuously warned that that the United States’ use of the Central Intelligence Agency to funnel weapons and logistics to jihadi warriors in support of Arab Springrebellions would lead to a vicious blow-back against the strategic interests of the United States. Clearly that has come to pass with the murder of the first American Ambassador since 1979 and the ejection of American influence across the Middle East. But as the Benghazi cover-up continues to unwind, the U.S. is headed for a Constitutional crisis that will have a deep and lasting impact on our nation

President Obama must immediately release the truth about Benghazi for the good of the nation.In 2011, the United States overseas weaponssales tripled to $66.3 billion, accounting for approximately three quarters of all the foreign weapons sales in the world. Over half of the American sales, $33.4 billion worth of weapons, went to Saudi Arabia. Another $6 billion went to the Persian Gulf nations of the United Arab Emirates, Qatar and Oman.According e-mails from Stratfor Global Intelligence hacked by WikiLeaks, Chief Executive Jamie Smith of “security” firm SCG International stated his organization had been contracted to U.S. intelligence agencies to supply arms to overthrow Muammar Gaddafi in Libya and was now working with Saudi Arabia and Qatar to provide weapons to hard-liner Islamic jihadists brigades to overthrow Assad in Syria

. . Smith stated that SCG was also working to recover missing Libyan surface-to-air missiles from Benghazi, Libya.

In March of 2011, Chris Stevens was appointed by Secretary of State Clinton as the official U.S. liaison to the al-Qaeda-linked Libyan rebels, working directly with Abdelhakim Belhadj of theLibyan Islamic Fighting Group (LIFG). Shortly thereafter, a non-fly-zone was declared by the U.S. and Stevens moved into Benghazi, Libya. When Libya was liberated in September, Stevens moved to Tripoli as the U.S. Ambassador.

Libya was ruled by a National Transitional Council until elections were held on July 7, 2012. LIFG formed the al-Umma al-Wasat political party under Sami al-Saadi, who had sent so many warriors to fight in Afghanistan that Taliban leader Mullah Omar called him the “Sheikh of the Arabs”. There was increasing violence leading up to the election. On June 6th an IED blew a hole in the security wall at the Benghazi Consulate “big enough for 40 men to go through”; on June 10th, the British ambassador’s car was attacked in Tripoli; and in late June, the International Red Cross in Benghazi was attacked. After the British and Red Cross withdrew, the U.S. flag over the American Consulate was the last international target in Benghazi. But the environment became much more dangerous when al-Uma al-Wasat only came in third place in the elections.

LIFG had been making great money selling Gaddafi’s estimated stock of about 20,000 portable SA-7 heat-seeking missiles to the Syrian rebels, who used them to shoot down Syrian helicopters and fighter jets. Last month The Times of London reported that a Libyan ship named ‘The Intisaar’ had berthed at the Turkish port of Iskenderun with docking “papers stamped by the port authority by the ship’s captain, Omar Mousaeeb” of Benghazi. The ship reportedly carried 400 tons of weapons for Syrian rebels, including SAM-7 surface-to-air anti-craft missiles and rocket-propelled grenades. The Times stated that the Syrian Muslim Brotherhood movement and Free Army claimed the cargo for themselves, which “delayed the arrival of the weapons in Syria.”

Ambassador Stevens had not visited Benghazi since his large security team was pulled from Libya in August. His visit to meet a Turkish diplomat in Benghazi on the anniversary of 9/11/2001 had to be connected to gun-running into Turkey to arm the Syrian rebels. He probably met with Consul Ali Sait Akin, who was the Turkish deputy representative to UNCTAD in 2003, and later a trade expert and “Head of Department” Ministry of Foreign Affairs. There were no disturbances when Stevens walked the Turkish diplomat to his compound gate at 8:30 PM.

Around nightfall according to a witness on the ground, 150 bearded gunmen with some wearing the Afghan-style tunics favored by Islamic militants sealed off the streets leading to the U.S. Consulate with pick-up trucks mounted with heavy machine guns. The trucks bore the logo of Ansar al-Shariah, a powerful local group of Islamist militants who worked with the municipal government to manage Benghazi security.

Former Navy SEAL Tyrone Woods was part of a six-man team at the CIA annex located 1.2 miles from the Consulate that were twice told to “stand down” from rushing to the Consulate after gunfire stated at 9:40 PM. According to leaked e-mails to the White House and the entire U.S. intelligence network at 10:05 PM learned the Consulate was under attack from automatic weapons, rocket-propelled grenades, mortars and heavy machine guns mounted on trucks.

Woods and at least two others ignored their direct orders and made their way to the consulate, which was now on fire. They did not find the Ambassador, but got into a firefight with the attackers. At midnight they evacuated to the annex those who remained at the Consulate and Sean Smith, who had been killed in the initial attack. With the CIA annex now taking fire they requested back up, but were twice turned down.

There were two military surveillance drones in the vicinity that were redirected to Benghazi to send real-time visuals back to the White House Situation Room, State Department, CIA, Pentagon and others after the attack on the Consulate began. With Sigonella Air base in Sicily just 480 miles away and continuous fighting going on at the CIA annex for more than four hours, the military could have easily deployed F-18s in 38 minutes and a Specter gunship in 90 minutes.

It has now been confirmed that two separate Tier One Special operations forces, including Delta Force, were mobilized, but told to wait. Based on our contacts, Africa Commander General Hamm launched the Delta Force rescue team on his own authority and was then told to “stand down.” When he argued, he was relieved of his command. Stars and Stripesnewspaper confirmed that Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta announced President Obama would nominate Army Gen. David Rodriguez to succeed Gen. Carter Ham as U.S. AFRICOM Commander.

It has been confirmed that a team manning a heavy machine gun on the roof of the CIA annex had a ground Laser Designator “painted” on a mortar site. Since the laser only has two hours of continuous battery life and targets are not “painted” until the weapons system/designator is synched, there must have been an AC130U Specter gunship or an armed drone overhead.

Only two authorities could have called off the weapons launch at that point; the White House situation command on the President’s direction or AFRICOM theater commander. With General Hamm relieved, it had to be the President himself. The President may have believed that Benghazi attack was another trap. Just a year before, the Taliban orchestrated ambush in the mountains of Afghanistan that killed at least 20 of the Seal Team Six unit that killed Osama bin Laden. When the Seal flew into a narrow pass to rescue surrounded U.S. Army soldiers, they were shot down by SAM-7 surface-to-air anti-craft missiles and rocket-propelled grenades.

Watergate demonstrated that it is not the crime, but the cover-up that is the most damaging to politicians. The White House should immediately release all the drone video tapes, documents and e-mails associated with the Benghazi attack. Real national security details can be confidentially presented to Congressional Intelligence Committees. But this information involves the deaths of Americans and is going to be leaked out over time by their friends and America’s enemies anyway. To prevent a major Constitutional crisis that will have a deep and lasting effect on our nation, the President should lead by releasing the truth immediately.

RSM Early Voting Through Tuesday

Posted By CotoBlogzz

Rancho Santa Margarita, CA - According to the City Clerk, Early Voting will continue in RSM through Tuesday, October 30th, 8:00 am to 5:00 pm. Any registered voter in Orange County can vote at any of the selected early voting sites in the County.

The CRA is suggesting the status quo in endorsing Beall, Gamble and McGirr. The CotoBuzz Journal on the other hand, recommend you ONLY vote for Kenney Hrabik - so as not to split the vote. When Jesse Petrilla was first elected to the RSM City Council we asserted that whether you liked him or hated him, one thing was a given. Petrilla is a change agent. We were spot on.

We dare say something similar about Kenney Hrabik

An interview of a different kind

Rancho Santa Margarita, CA - We were looking forward to a substantive debate between Mr. Chuck DeVore and Mr. Todd Spitzer as they attempt to make their case for a Third District Board of Supervisors seat in 2012. Given their collective experience in public service, the operative question is whether they have become part of the problem, or part of the solution. We are still looking.

We publicly challenged both candidates to see whether they had any specific bold proposals - emphasis on bold, for what should be obvious reasons- for the fiscal tsunami facing the county, and to make sure they got the memo, we tried to reach them multiple times via their Facebook accounts, asking them to respond by no later than April 29, 2011 at 5:00 pm. Mr. DeVore was gracious enough to respond. We have yet to hear from Mr. Spitzer.

DeVore on ANDRES BOCELI - Rancho Santa Margarita, CA- Candidate Obama rightfully demanded that words must mean something. President Obamaregularly parses words not unlike the infamous "it all depends on what is is". Politicians regularly use the terms accountability and transparency, but when pressed as to what they are ready to do, they deflect, deny or ignore, perhaps even lie - that is, the political game of DIDL.

California's Triple Threat - Rancho Santa Margarita, CA - We assert that the sucking sound you hear are all the jobs California is losing to Nevada, Texas and Utah, in large measure do to what we refer to as California's Triple Threat: 1) Public sector organized labor, 2) un-elected, un-checked parasitic bureaucracies and 3) lobbyists.

Such index ranked Hong Kong at the top, while the United States was relegated to the number six slot
