Lt. Col. Tony Shaffer: My sources tell me Obama was in the room watching Benghazi

[Cincinnatus]

Appearing on Judge Pirro's show with Col David Hunt, Lt Col Tony Shaffer makes the astounding claim that Obama was watching the events in Benghazi in real time (at about 1:50 on the tape).

Couple of things about this: First, this claim was made by Lt Col Shaffer not long after the attack at Benghazi occurred so I am somewhat surprised it hasn't been posted on here before, but a search turned up nothing. Secondly, I am just unsure how a light bird not connected with the WH would have this knowledge. I am not calling Lt Col Shaffer a liar, since I don't know and his claim seems plausible, but I do wonder why his allegation has not received much wider attention given its nature.

They reported back in September that this was watched live around the world by something on the order of 700 listening posts, that everyone saw and knew what was happening in real time. Charlene Lamb did not totally deny it when she was called to testify.
