If McCain worked to get “consent and approval of the Senate” with language which "specifies that the mission is limited in scope, with no U.S. ground troops", then THAT becomes Official U.S. Foreign Policy.
It changes things.
But it does NOT justify Barack Obama denying backup support and abandoning Chris Stevens, Glen Doherty, Sean Smith, and Tyrone S. Woods.
The ILLEGAL ALIEN IN CHIEF still committed TREASON and got Americans killed, because of politics.
And he's going to turn against Israel, and help his Muslim Brothers nuke Israel;.

Nothing changed other than you became aware of something basic you should have been aware of before.

Not authorizing a rescue mission IN THIS INSTANCE was cowardly and a despicable lack of leadership - but it doesn't fit the definition of treason. Not even close.

Is it criminal? No. Otherwise no President who has men die under orders when a rescue could have conceivably helped them would be safe from such charges.

When I was in the Air Force it was explained that the loss of ten men rescuing a downed pilot was a justifiable cost, although eleven might be considered an unacceptable loss. But if they refuse to send in twenty men after they lose ten, are they guilty of murder for abandoning a downed pilot?

Now if you want to rant and rave without critical information (McCain's support for Libya and the Senate vote), instead of researching a little and making yourself aware of such critical information - go ahead with your bad self! But you aren't making yourself look rational or well informed by doing so.
