And compare this to when they were watching TV as our Military Special Forces take out Osama Bin Laden...
" WE WEREN'T TOLD " ....
-Paul Ryan, VP Debate
If they had some great Intel information of getting Osama Bin Laden ?
Why then ?
Was the Intel flawed in Benghazi attacks ?
Is it possible the pres and VP were not informed of the truth? This would point to Hillary. The so-called Intellegence BELONGED to Hillary!
The biggest travesty here is that there should be a reaction from our government, a reaction that has a punitive, unabashed retaliatory flavor. Though boots on the ground would preferable to me, this reaction doesn’t have to be military. The lack of a response is putting all our people overseas, civilians too, in danger.
What will deter them from doing this again? Apparently, there are no consequences. This administration even makes excuses for them.
IIRC it wasn’t just Republicans who were questioning the President’s performance in this area.
I was wondering, The New York Times.. WOW!
The last sentence in the above article, is the beginning of the escape clause.. It’s under investigation..think Fast and Furious.. Now it makes sense.. :)
I wish more details were available, like where did the weapons used in benghazi attack come from? Were they US supplied weapons. Is this Fast and Furious: MiddleEast?
I wondered if this story would get legs.
Has it ever!
Will there be some sort of Friday info dump?
If Obama had to clear it with Valerie Jarrett to go after Bin Laden, maybe he had to clear it with her to do something to help in Libya. Maybe the screwup is that he’s incapable of making a tough decision.
“...talk about “a day late and a dollar short” as my dear old grandad used to say...
What? In what alternate fantasy universe? The foreign policy of the 0bama administration has been rudderless, reactionary, feckless and incompetent in nearly every particular, from weird enthusiasms for Arab Spring in Libya, Egypt, and Syria, to a cringe-making apology tour that served only to set the President of the United States up as better than his own country. It has been populated by rank amateurs such as Hillary Rodham Clinton, laughed at by our enemies such as Putin, our ostensible friends such as the Saudis, while offending our real friends such as the Brits. It is the signature mark of the transcendence of celebrity in American politics over substance, of marquee glitter over actual qualification, of sizzle over steak.
One struggles to find an instance in recent history of a foreign policy morass quite this odoriferous. Jimmy Carter's people had nothing on this gaggle of university brats and two-bit ideologues whose entire depth of qualification consists of an earnest belief that the People Who Count in other countries are (1) just like them, and (2) willing to subordinate the interests of their own countries in the face of internationalist fantasies. Their ineptitude has cost our country lives, fortunes, and they wouldn't know sacred honor if it stared them in the face.
If it were not for the fact that Al Qaeda acknowledged the death of Bin Laden I’d be getting serious doubts about the whole Bin Laden is dead story now after this Libya fiasco.
Was this on page 1, just the web edition, or did they bury it again? Also, .... Gee, I thought they called Hillary the “smartest woman in the world”, but now they are going to throw her under the bus for Dear Leader? Well, that’s Minitru for ya’!
