Well said!

“What we really need to start asking is, who knew of this and when? Were we warned in advance? If so, why weren’t further security measures taken? Why wasn’t security beefed up (at minimum) by American forces instead of relying on local security? Or, why weren’t the embassies and consulates evacuated? Why hasn’t Obama attended a national security briefing over the past week? If we did know in advance, did we accept it, or did we reject it?”

If the president was a Republican and not Obama, these would be the questions: Who lost Egypt? What did we do wrong in our security arrangements?

Heads would be ready to roll for this tragedy and travesty. It should NOT have happened. And the media would pin this on GOP incompetence.

What just happened in effect was a Katrina in foreign policy. A disaster. And the President response was weak and late.

Instead, we get this scary Pravda-esque dissent-suppression call ... nobody is supposed to say anything about the President while a foreign policy disaster happens on Obama’s watch. We are supposed to wait to see what he says, even if he’s late and rudderless.

Romney led, Obama followed. and the media cannot abide that, so they are making Romney’s correct and excellent statement a ‘mistake’ that they will try to force him to back down on.

Meanwhile, they miss the real story.

This tragic attack is blowback for support of islamicist radicals in the guise of the ‘Arab spring’.

The Obama administration incited and engaged in a war in Libya in a ‘democracy in mid east’ neo-Wilsonian policy. The ambassador just killed was the man who worked with militants to make it happen. It is ironic that he helped the extremists who probably ended up killing him. but we knew going in that the extremists in Libya were the guys who went to Iraq to kill Americans during the Iraq war. They are Al Qaeda sympathizers.

And they returned to their true form in the attack yesterday.

So you have to ask yourself: Why did Obama feed the hand that bites us?
