Why did Cantor hide the FBI story about the CIA head?

Seems he knew about if before the President did, but didn't pass that information on, WHY?

Now I hear Republicans trying to make it into a political football, do they never learn that you don't play politics like this.
 
Better question...same subject

James Clapper, who oversees the CIA and other intelligence agencies was notified by the FBI on Tuesday evening about 5 p.m. - just as returns in the U.S. presidential election
were about to come in - about "the situation involving Director Petraeus," a senior intelligence official said. On Wednesday, Clapper notified the National Security Council at the White
House that Petraeus was considering resigning and President Barack Obama should be informed.

So...last Wednesday the incompetent fraud in the White House was finally informed about a possible national security issue involving his CIA Director that had been under investigation for five months!!


And you want to gin up some talk about Eric Cantor....but not Eric Holder? I can't imagine it would be because one Eric is white and one Eric is black and the black one is off
limits....not from you...no way.

Well don't worry....you're not the only one. Other Obama lapdogs are also trying to run cover for his dysfunctional administration...

Okay...then tell us why it took 5 months for the president to learn that his CIA Director was under investigation by his Justice Department?

The President does not become personally involved in every FBI investigation. He already has an important job to tend to. This investigation has uncovered no criminal activity to the best of my knowledge.
 
LOL....he certainly knew about DOJ's Trayvon Martin investigation....of course that was more important than a possible national security issue with his CIA Director.

Let's not joust here Swimmer....fact is Obama knew from the get go and was kept informed. That's good. Why the blatantly ludicrous fabrication that he didn't know, creating the appearance he's out of the loop on national security, is hard to figure.

Why did Holder hide it from the President?

As more information is released, it is clear that Representative Eric Cantor- one of the country's most powerful Republicans- was notified of the investigation involving Petraeus on October 27, more than a week before the election.

Federal investigators from the FBI and the Justice Department- including Obama-appointee Attorney General Eric Holder- had been aware of the ensuing scandal for months.

I don't believe that the President didn't know either Boca. So everyone knew but him? Highly unlikely.

I do, but you apparently don't.

Why am I not surprised? Just look at your record for making accurate statements and predictions.
 
Of course he knew....question is now why does he want the world to think he didn't?

The obvious answer seems to be that if it came to light that he did know about Petraeus's affair why didn't he ask for a resignation? And the answer to that is no more scandals before the election....most importantly any scandal even remotely associated with Benghazi.

On that note however...if he knew of the affair, as he certainly must have, before Benghazi, asking for Petraeus's resignation wouldn't have been the big deal it is now.

Well...he won....so we can expect as his campaign slogan promised....he will stumble FORWARD.
 
The Benghazi Conspiracy Theory was invented to prevent the President from being reelected. It didn't work. It's time to let it go. You only embarrass yourself by continuing to beat this dead horse.

Really Boca, maybe once in your life you might have a single conversation that you didn't copy from opinions sources from far right wing nuts.
Now you want to try again about why did Cantor not tell anyone about the information he had?
 
I don't know....but since you're the one trying make something out of it, why not tell us what you think?

I promise I won't laugh.
 
Hang on. He had the time to get involved in the Henry Louis Gates dustup. He had time to get involved in the Trayvon Martin case. But you're insinuating that he is "too busy" to stay informed with an issue involving the head of the CIA?

Seriously?

Every idiot in America is aware of stories that are worn out on the nightly news for weeks on end. I seriously doubt that any President insists upon knowing every trivial detail of the thousands of FBI investigations that are ongoing during his term in office.

If you guys put half as much effort into educating yourselves as you put into chasing wild-eyed conspiracy theories then maybe you wouldn't be so depressed all of the time.
