In an unusual move, the Navy has replaced an admiral commanding an aircraft carrier strike group while it is deployed to the Middle East. The replacement was prompted by an Inspector General’s investigation of allegations of inappropriate leadership judgment.
Rear Adm. Charles M. Gaouette, the commander of the USS John C. Stennis strike group, is being returned to the United States for temporary reassignment.
In a statement the Navy said it had approved a request made by Vice Adm. John W. Miller, the Commander of U.S. Naval Forces Central Command, to temporarily reassign Gaouette “pending the results of an investigation by the Navy Inspector General.â€

In light of Tony Shaffer's revelations today, I think that this might be unrelated.

In light of all that is going on we in the Dolls club for crazy old Lady's have cooked up a conspiracy theory:
All started when one of most sane women asked if this could have been a scheme to get Obama in/ out of the white House and it went horribly wrong.
Someones saw a chance to get up to mischief because of a little known movie. Perhaps both sides went to work to stir their pot for their agenda.
We know Washington had prior knowledge of unrest and former attacks on our Embassy, Someone had to convince Obama that
there was little threat to the Embassy, had to convince his aids an his handlers that any problem was due to a stupid movie. So convincing were that that after 2 weeks or so the leaders still would not believe their own eyes or ears to any report on the contrary. Was it just a piece of tape that led to the Watergate cover up ???
Now I wonder where did the Drones come from, where were the launched from and who guided them to the Embassy that night ??? Why were they there if no one had received the Maydays from the Embassy ???
In something like this we watch the Military, who gets the boot or takes the blame. Who knows too much and how to keep them quiet. Who is transferred suddenly or takes an early out. Best to retire early then face an accident to themself and/or family.
You best believe that aircraft Carrier was not alone and by itself, they have escorts of everything from nuclear cruisers to subs.

Four star General Ham of AFRICOM has been replaced too. I've read rumors that he was relieved of duty because of Benghazi.

I heard that too. I heard that he was going to send in a group of Tier One operators to rescue the Consulate and CIA Annex personnel anyway, but was relieved of command within one minute of deciding to proceed.

No new info but they make the case that these guys were replaced for wanting to do the right thing. Panetta actually mentioned Gen Ham in his testimony to congress.

I'm hoping this is just rumor. I don't want to believe that Panetta would be part of this and be Obama's panty washer.

Right! You always want to make a change of leadership for no reason when the area is in turmoil. effin idiots are ruining this country. November 6 won't be here soon enough.

Dempsey must have been ordered to release that statement. Doing so does nothing to stem the opinion that Ham was fired, but the level of political idiocy demonstrated by Barry and his Boys continues to reach new lows.

So this may prove that Cannon fodder goes all the way up to the highest ranking in the military. Not just the grunts but to those in the way up ranks of our Peace Keepers. All lives and careares are expendable to the Politicians.
Smart move for Obama, remove a General with 40 years experience from a war zone with little reason. This will shake up the Pentagon and silence the critics there. Obama wants to silence the military from saying one word against all the huge cuts to their budget, what better way to send a message ????
Screw Obama, he is fighting a fire that he cannot control. He is president of our country but was raised else where has no idea just how America Works. He has no idea of the fighting spirit we all have to insure our future generations do not grow up in the life style Obama was raised in.
We are not Indonesia, Kenya or some Muslim Country, we are unique to the world. ----Except Israel that in 60+ years turned the desert into a garden and as advanced as it took America 300 years to come to.
Obama best read history of other leaders that went against their Military and what happend to them.------One is a fool to beat up their body guard.

Obama Fires Top Admiral For Advocating Libyan Rescue?
http://beforeitsnews.com/politics/2012/10/obama-fires-top-admiral-as-coup-plot-fears-grows-2466106.html
US news reports on Obama’s unprecedented firing of a powerful US Navy Commander during wartime state that Admiral Gaouette’s removal was for “allegations of inappropriate leadership judgment†that arose during the strike group’s deployment to the Middle East.
This GRU report, however, states that Admiral Gaouette’s firing by President Obama was due to this strike force commander disobeying orders when he ordered his forces on 11 September to “assist and provide intelligence for†American military forces ordered into action by US Army General Carter Ham, who was then the commander of the United States Africa Command (AFRICOM), against terrorist forces attacking the American Consulate in Benghazi, Libya.
General Ham had been in command of the initial 2011 US-NATO military intervention in Libya who, like Admiral Gaouette, was fired by Obama. And as we can, in part, read from US military insider accounts of this growing internal conflict between the White House and US Military leaders:
“The information I heard today was that General [Carter] Ham as head of Africom received the same e-mails the White House received requesting help/support as the attack was taking place. General Ham immediately had a rapid response unit ready and communicated to the Pentagon that he had a unit ready.
General Ham then received the order to stand down. His response was to screw it, he was going to help anyhow. Within 30 seconds to a minute after making the move to respond, his second in command apprehended General Ham and told him that he was now relieved of his command.â€

Woods must have thought a gun ship was overhead, why else would he be painting targets with his lazer? He made himself a target and got killed because of it.
There is an awful lot to this story that the Obama thugs will try and bury. McCain said yesterday that if we gain the senate, he would be chairman of the committee that would investigate this and promised that heads would roll.
