Spread Near And Far: Bracken On Petraeus | Western Rifle Shooters Association

NYT: F.B.I. and Justice Dept. Said To Seek Charges for Petraeus

Bracken jumps in at comment 26 in this Freeper thread; assembled, his remarks are as follows:

Petraeus has been raking it in on several do-nothing Warbucks Inc corporate boards. If he had any honor, he would have already done a Colonel Hackworth on the Sunday morning news circuit.

Yes, he’s being punished, but the take-away is the unhappy tippy-canoe of the status quo “understanding” is being tipped over and there will be more to come.

He should have written his book about his betrayal by Team Obama, Deputy DCIA Mike Morrel (now at CBS as a “consultant”) and all of the rest. He knows what happened at Benghazi, and it saddens me that he’s just been satisfied to rake in millions in do-nothing board directorships.

His honor is 100% at stake, if he has any left.

A 4-star is the same exact rank as Obama’s “good friend Chris” Stevens.

FWIW.

And now Petraeus’s back-stabbing ex-deputy is a CBS new consultant, Mike Morrel. Who a year ago lied one way to congress, and a year later lied 180* the other way, and said, “What you going to do about it, punk?” and they did nothing. He was the CIA collaborator on changing the talking points, behind G.DP’s back. And probably was involved in the timing of the Paula Broadwell blow-up, which until then had been kept in the drawer and used for blackmail.

But blackmail also has a “timed detonation” use, keep in mind.

If he had any honor, since he knows the entire truth of Benghazi, he would have done a Hackworth already, never mind selling the book deal first.

Instead, he’s been raking in millions on Warbucks Inc boards, which is the establishment’s way of paying him off to keep his trap shut.

That was the unsteady arrangement, me thinks. Now, Holder/Obama is launching a frontal assault. In South America, this is usually a pre-emptive strike, where the dissident politician is accused of embezzling funds and sending them to a Swiss account. This usually happens in Buenos Aires or Caracas about one week before the dissident announces his candidacy.

So I’m guessing they found out Petraeus was writing a tell-all, and are trying to burn him down first.

NB as well this section from Bracken’s “Stonewalled in Obama’s Garden of Beasts“:

***…We know that the leaders of the mainstream media have largely been co-opted and corrupted by the Obama administration. They will not even attempt to break the high and soundproof stone walls that they have helped to build around Obama’s many scandals. These include Operation Fast and Furious, IRS political targeting, the intelligence agencies illegally spying on Obama’s perceived political enemies, and so on. Breaking the American Pravda embargo against truthful reporting is a lost cause.

But are there no actively serving (or even recently retired) military generals or members of the federal Senior Executive Service who retain a shred of honor? Who will place Duty, Honor and Country ahead of paycheck, pension, and self-promotion? Is there not one real hero left with stars on his shoulders?

Not even one?

13. A CALL FOR ANSWERS

General Petraeus, where is your book? Is your agent planning to release it in a few years to maximize its profits? Aren’t you already making a ton of money sitting on all of those boards? Only a coward and scoundrel (like a certain recent Secretary of Defense) would wait to release a book only after its information was too late to prevent disaster. And knowing what I now know, I would not be surprised to learn that threats had been made against your family in order to ensure your silence. After all, gangsters rule our government today. It’s the Chicago Way.

But General Petraeus, before your book finally comes out, possibly after many years, can you please answer two very simple questions? Put your answers on the public record now, instead of waiting for your book, when it’s too late to matter. As a man of honor, please answer these two questions sooner, rather than later.

1. Where was President Barack Obama on the night of the Benghazi attacks, hour by hour, dusk ’til dawn?

2. Does President Obama’s mysterious MIA status on the night when his “good friend” Ambassador Chris Stevens and the other Americans were being killed relate to his failure to grant “cross-border authority” for an external rescue mission? Necessary permission that only the president, in person, can give? Did President Obama literally hide, so that no external rescue could be mounted? A rescue that might have turned into a “Blackhawk Down” disaster just weeks before the election? General Petraeus, an honorable man would not hesitate to put these facts on the record.

The American people deserve to know exactly what kind of man their Commander-in-Chief is. The fact that years after Benghazi we still don’t know the answers to those questions indicates that we are far along in the process of losing our freedom, with the mainstream media and the intelligence services colluding in the establishment of tyranny.

History will judge us very harshly if we don’t find a way to stop Obama’s Garden of Beasts from fundamentally transforming the United States into a one-party socialist dictatorship, while we watch it happen, helpless to resist. We watch and we wait, like insects already injected with paralyzing poison and wrapped in silk, awaiting the spider.

How can we escape from Team Obama’s web of deceit?
