LF: Pentagon Denies Claims General Was Fired Over Benghazi Attacks

On Monday, U.S. military officials denied claims from a Washington Times blog that Gen. Carter Ham, former head of U.S. Africa command, may have been fired due to an intent to disobey defense secretary Leon Panetta's order to "stand down" while the Sept. 11 attacks in Benghazi were underway.

This story is gathering steam as Charlie Woods, father of slain Navy SEAL Tyrone Woods, went on the Glenn Beck show this past weekend to claim that President Barack Obama had shown no remorse for his son's death during their meeting. (YouTube Video)

Over the weekend, a source inside the Pentagon informed Times reporter James Robbins that Gen. Ham wanted to send special forces units to help Americans under siege in Libya despite orders from Sec. Panetta to stand down. Ham was supposedly relieved of his command by a junior officer just before Ham was to order the rescue mission.

As we consider the middle [IPCC] scenarios AIM 6.0 and MiniCAM 4.5, we must bear in mind this very important point:

All other things being equal, anthropogenic CO2 emissions are a proxy for economic growth *

* "a proxy for" in this context means "provide an alternative measurement of", or "stand in for"

As things stand, and in the foreseeable future, anthropogenic emissions from burning fossil fuels will rise if and only if the global economy is growing. "

Okay, then you tell us just where in the world, this pure form of capitalism that you expouse and believe is so economically superior, actually exists.

Hopefully you wouldn't use a figment of your "imagination" as a working theory would you?

No,you are so ignorant you expose it as a governing model,and are unaware that it is governments that dictate economic policies.

Excrement. Socialism is a political system to coerce adults into doing things they would otherwise never do. A family unit- where the adults have total responsibility for their children- is a completely different thing.

Please provide the empirical data that backs your claim. Otherwise, I'll have to conclude that you're just talking shit again.

We don't have a capitalist system any more; it's a corporatist system, also known as "socialism."

So... can you cite an example of a pure capitalism only economy? Sure one must have existed somewhere or sometime in history?

Yes. America before your communist buddies in the Dim Party started taking over. This USED to be a great country,and then you self-centered parasites started shitting all over it by working to destroy the Constitution and change us into a democracy. Democracy is nothing more than mob rule with the country being ran by the lowest common denominators.

A wise man once said,"If you wish to live your life as a good man,try to be the man your dog thinks you are."

Correct. Unfortunately, we made it only about 15 years after the Declaration of Independance, before the quest for power and money were rearing their ugly heads. Alexander Hamilton was the piece of shit that allowed the first centralized bank to get going. Jefferson recognized it for the corruption it enabled, and shut it down.

Madison enabled the second centralized bank, and Andrew Jackson shut 'em down. His famous quote about banksters was "You are a den of vipers and thieves. I intend to rout you out, and by the grace of the Eternal God, will rout you out."

Socialism and communism absolutely depend on centralized banking, and one of the foundational pieces of a "managed" economy. So it's no surprise that commies and socialist parasites like loonyming would think capitalism is evil, and the socialism/communism is good.

She's fucking delusional. Of course, after the socialists kill anyone who could threaten them, they then turn on the stupid and non-productive (aka parasites). In other words, she thinks they'll help her... when the only thing the socialists will eventually do is get rid of her sorry ass...

That was considered more of a mercantilist type of economy, not capitalist. And at that time there was plenty of local taxes and revenues being levied by the various governments to pay for various projects.

Like I said before, surely there is a date and place where this pure capitalist economy existed, but you will need to supply some documentation other than your fantasies and faith.

Mercantilism is the little brother of corporatism/fascism. Your claim, therefore, is complete SHIT.

And then go back and look at Article 1, Section 2, paragraph 3, of the Constitution.

Sneaky, don't tell me that you worship your capitalist ideal inspite of your inability to ever cite an instance where it's ever occurred.

And your attempts at distraction are duly noted as similar behaviors are generally exhibited by other religious cultists too, when they are called upon to explain the objects of their religious fervor, and they know it's really an imaginary figment in which they place their faith.

You still can't tell the difference between a tariff and revenue tax based system of local economies and pure capitalism... huh?

You worship your socialist/communist ideals despite them having been tried in several places and failing in each attempt.

A wise man once said,"If you wish to live your life as a good man,try to be the man your dog thinks you are."

I can tell that you're trying to frame the discussion, even though you've no understanding of the subject.

All the time that you spend trying to make yourself appear to have a modicum of intelligence... and you consistently fail, even in that.

All you have to do is tell us about your "once upon a time there was a purely capitalist economy that existed and everyone lived happily ever after". But please provide a little documentation next time so it doesn't appear to be pure fantasy.

Yet all you have to do is tell us about your "once upon a time there was a purely capitalist economy that existed and everyone lived happily ever after", to prove your point.

It should be very simple for someone who has put so much energy and faith into the formation of their capitalist ideals.

Yup,along with the additional information that it was cretins like you that helped bring it down.

Sneaky must be trying to keep it a secret so only him and his fellow cultists know for sure. LOL

If your head is too firmly planted up your ass to recognize the answer, it's not my problem.

That's the lovely thing about the internet... the documentation is literally at your fingertips. You only have to be smart enough to access it, and read it. That you fail to do so, again, is not my problem.

As to "pure fantasy," the only time I see such fantasy is when you post things you believe to be clever... but are obviously devoid of fact or intelligence.

YOUR problem. Which reminds me- have you gotten your tubes tied, yet? God knows, we don't need any more idiot bitches like you in the world... it'd be better if you didn't reproduce.
