For 13 years, haters of President Bush have lied to us that he had a memo which warned of the 9/11 attack before it happened.
I have debunked this lie numbers of times over the years – by doing nothing more than putting up the memo itself, which – as anyone can see when they read it instead of taking the Bush haters\’ word for it – shows no such warning. In fact I put up a blog about this on August 24th, less than two weeks ago.
But there may well have been a memo warning of terrorism that a President did see. One which, we are told, detailed who and what to be worried about in specific terms: in other words, it was everything that the August 6th memo was not.
Except this memo was not to President Bush about 9/11. It was to President Obama about ISIS.
Read this transcript from a report by Fox News\’s Chief Intelligence Correspondent, Catherine Herridge which aired on Fox News Channel\’s Special Report last night, and see for yourself (then wonder along with me why it wasn\’t on NBC, CBS or ABC):
CATHERINE HERRIDGE:Earlier, a former Pentagon official told Fox News the detailed andspecific intelligence about the rise of ISIS was included in thepresident\’s daily brief, also known as the PDB for at least a yearbefore the group took large swaths of territory in June. The officialsaid the data was strong, adding a policymaker such as the president,who often takes his brief electronically, could only conclude thesituation was getting bad. Today, neither the White House nor thePentagon denied the claim, emphasizing they were on top of thesituation
PENTAGONPRESS SECRETARY REAR ADMIRAL JOHN KIRBY: We\’ve talked about ISILfor many months now and as I\’ve said before, we were very closelymonitoring and tracking their progress, their growth, theirdevelopment, well before they rolled into Mosul. So, this is not anorganization that we haven\’t been watching.
If Rear Admiral Kirby is correct – and, as Herridge reports, neither the White House nor the Pentagon denies it – then we have proof that President Obama knew about ISIS well before it grew into the world-class terrorist organization it is now….and he did exactly nothing to stop it.
With all the media attention since 2001 to the August 6th memo that did not in any way warn President Bush of 9/11, do you think that maybe, just maybe, a few venues besides Fox News might have a word or to about President Obama knowing damn well about ISIS — and instead of doing something meaningful to stop it, taunting the group like a schoolboy, by calling them the “jayvees” (junior varsity)?
I\’ll wait. But with an Accomplice Media like Mr. Obama has, my hopes are not high.
