Cliff Kincaid brings Republican Majority Leader into the mix of Benghazigate and Petraeus/Allen-gate.
Yes there is a definite appearance of a connection between a Benghazi Murder Cover-up and the extramarital affairs of former CIA Director/General David Petraeus and General John Allen.
The question that requires an answer is “WHY?”
Since it is proven the Barack Obama and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton knew of both the nature of a Benghazi Consulate impending murder and at least the affair of David Petraeus, WHY in the world or perhaps HOW in the world did this cascade of information fail to become President?
Unless you are an idiot you know why it the information was covered up. President Barack Hussein Obama KNEW the layers of scandal and who was aware of what would cast a pall on his reelection chances. Voters would have to believe Conservatives such as I that maintain that Obama deceived Americans before 2008 and through his first term in the Office of President.
Check it out friends! Eric Cantor had the opportunity to at least expose part of this cover-up and failed. Maybe Obama had something on Cantor as well and hushed him up too. Or perhaps Cantor did not make the connection between Benghazigate and Petraeusgate. Out of respect for the awesome good Petraeus has performed for America he didn’t want to rock the Petraeus image. If that was the case then Cantor may naively felt Obama would not rock Petraeus’ image either.
Whatever the case (Lucy) there is some ‘splaining’ to do (think of a Desi Arnaz command pertaining to a Lucille Ball screw-up).

Why Did Cantor Protect Obama?
By Cliff Kincaid

The central figures in the David Petraeus sex scandal are not talking. That includes Virginia Congressman and House Majority Leader Eric Cantor. Yet, the decision by this top Republican to turn to the FBI rather than his colleagues in the House with inside information about the scandal has proven to be monumental, a development that enabled Barack Obama to win the presidency without getting tainted by the allegations of immorality and corruption that are now the subject of daily news reports.
The record shows that Cantor had knowledge of the affair from an FBI whistleblower before the election but decided not to go public with the allegations of high-level misconduct by the CIA director. He stayed silent as Obama campaigned for re-election as a foreign policy statesman and efficient manager of America’s national security interests.
Cantor understood the stakes. In an October 22 column, Cantor had declared, “The American people deserve a president who recognizes that the war on terrorism is not over. They deserve a president who is dedicated to maintaining American pre-eminence in the world and who will protect our military budget, not cut it. They deserve a president who will restore and grow America’s alliances, who will prove America to be a reliable partner and a fierce enemy.”
But when he was given the David Petraeus scandal on a silver platter by an FBI whistleblower, more than a week before the election, Cantor turned the information over to the FBI, the same agency which had been conducting the cover-up on Obama’s behalf. Indeed, this cover-up is why the whistleblower came to Cantor. The predictable result of going to the FBI, headed by Robert Mueller, who was re-appointed by Obama, is that nothing was done and Obama won the election.
If Cantor had gone public, the fallout from the scandal would have rocked Obama’s presidency just before Election Day. Because the allegations were based on inside information provided by a whistleblower and were true and could not be denied, Cantor’s revelations could not have been automatically dismissed as partisan or political in nature. The FBI whistleblower might have been persuaded to go public as well.
In one of the latest developments, which demonstrates the serious nature of the scandal, Jennifer Griffin of Fox News has confirmed that Petraeus mistress Paula Broadwell did release classified information in a public forum when talking about the CIA holding prisoners at a facility in Libya. It is likely that Broadwell got the information from Petraeus.
Cantor’s failure to go public or even tell his colleagues about the scandal in advance is starting to attract more interest from the press.
“House Majority Leader Eric Cantor has some tall explaining to do to the leadership on Capitol Hill,” notes Washington Post columnist Colbert King.
King, a liberal, hit the target on this one, asking why Cantor only went to the FBI with the information. He asks, “Why didn’t Cantor raise the alarm? The majority leader needs to step up to the mic.” King notes that members of Congress are livid over being kept in the dark by the FBI about the scandal.
The only reporter to confront Cantor about his strange handling of the explosive allegations is WTVR CBS 6 Richmond, Virginia, reporter Joe St. George. Cantor told him, “I had some information that I felt was information that raised some concerns and potentially could have some impact for our nation’s security.” St. George asked Cantor about the decision to not release the information publicly prior to the election. “I don’t want to comment, I don’t think it’s something we want to politicize—I think this is a national security concern,” Cantor said.
These are fine sentiments. However, according to a November 10 article by Scott Shane and Eric Schmitt of The New York Times, Cantor’s chief of staff, Steve Stombres, called the FBI on October 31 to tell them about the call Cantor had received from the FBI whistleblower. “They took the information,” Doug Heye, Cantor’s deputy chief of staff, was quoted as saying, “and gave the standard answer: they were not able to confirm or deny any investigation, but said that all necessary steps were being taken to make sure no confidential information was at risk.”
In other words, the FBI was stonewalling Cantor. Informing the FBI had gotten nowhere. The cover-up was continuing, at least through Election Day, and Cantor at this point had to know it.
While Cantor refuses to talk in detail about why he only went to the FBI with the information, the FBI whistleblower who confided in Cantor is now under attack by the liberal press as someone “obsessed” with the case and too close to one of the participants in the scandal.
The lesson is clear: don’t go to the House Republicans with any inside knowledge of Obama Administration scandals.
