I am trying to find out if this will be on C-Span or posted to YuTube afterwards.
Chris Matthews and Wolf Blitzer are already ordering paper in bulk, so they can paper over this one too.
For starters, the utter abuse and misuse of SOF troops. Our pussified generals and civilian leaders have a fantasy that a few specialists can enter an area and kill the bad guys doing no harm whatsoever to the area they live in, or their communities.
The platoon on the CH-47 that was shot down was a monument to the low quality of our officers at the command level. The force that went out was too small and weak, and needed rescue from a react force. The react force was a seal platoon. Seals are fine, but large group actions are not their thing.
A force of Rangers or Marines, properly supported with araty and gunships was what was called for.
The fantasy that a few specialists can take the place of conventional forces is murdering them.
Hope they’re ready to be called racists, but also that they get this story out and develops legs.
You wouldn’t pack a SEAL platoon into an Amtrack and use them to storm a defensive position. But the nationbuilders and COIN boys are sure that SOF forces can do anything, anywhere, and can always easily substitute for conventional ground forces.
It simply isnt true.

This is heating up!

Damn shame that we do not have investigative reporters anymore!
The press release last night said this was supposed to happen today.
Did they decide to delay it because of the Benghazi hearing, or the horror house or the stupid wacked out wife trial in la la land?
Remember when all the stuff about the birth certificate was going viral? Then all of a sudden out of the blue we get OBL. Then all that stuff about the birth certificate just faded away....
Thus, if all these hearings get a little too hot, then it would not surprise me at all if we see some type of “wag the dog” scenario. With the goal that all these investigations just fade away. Just saying it would not surprise me at all.
Can be seen here repeating:
Just a horrible shame for our so called Media! Thank goodness that it seems that even they are finally being shamed into performing their duty - even if biased, it ought to at least try to do the right thing.
Many things are coming home to roost with this administration and if they continue with their Democratic support (and cover up) then they will go away...and good riddance!
At least there are still good and decent folks working for the government (most are in the military though) but as long as they will put the best for America ahead of their own interest, we will prevail.
