The bin Laden documents

It turns out Hillary isn't the only one of Obama's inner circle sensitive about hard drives, cell phones, etc. He is, too. It was about a year ago I heard that the Navy seals had captured the bin Laden documents, but with all the other scandals hovering over this administration plus the run up to the primaries, it went from the back burner to under the rug.

As it turns out, there's enough information to fill a small college library, but the Obama administration doesn't want them released because they conflict with the narrative that he had weakened them, they were decimated--the justification for his disastrous pull out that birthed ISIS (aka ISIL). Now they may have to be subpoenaed. 

"There are enough documents to fill a "small college library," [Devin] Nunes (R) wrote -- but only a fraction is public. The letter goes on to describe that documents "came from the information on over 100 thumb drives, hard drives, cell phones, paper files and other documents."

Behind the scenes of the pirate rescue

This came through e-mail today, so I looked it up--not a whole lot more satisfactory, but if you want to join the conversation, at least Atlas Shrugs has a lot of people commenting. She says it came from Free Republic.
    The flight of the FBI's passenger jet took a little less than 14 hours at 500-some knots to get to Djibouti. BOXER'S helos picked them up and transported them out to the ship. The Navy SEALs were already there, staged, and ready to act by the time POTUS's FBI arrived on board later that evening. Notably, the first request by the OSC (On Scene Commander) that early Friday morning to take them out and save Captain Phillips was denied, to wit: "No, wait until 'my' FBI people get there."

No source

Obama's doing enough bad stuff accurately reported that I don't need to add unsourced material, but if you personally want to read the Navy Seal report on what really happened with the pirates and why it took so long, and why the pirates weren't shot when the captain jumped in the water giving the marksmen a clear view, well, here's the oldest record I found--but no source, on a Baylor discussion list. That's even more poorly sourced than a blog under a made up name (I use my own). I'm just saying. . . it makes more sense than the news reports, but who really knows? Remember, because Bush sat a few seconds in stunned silence while reading to school children when the terrorists flew into the WTC, the marxists-among-us, including certain Hollywood celebs who are experts on everything, say he planned the whole thing. Obama waits 4 days to act, and they think he's god-like and brave.
