Former Democratic presidential candidate Jim Webb is accusing his party's front-runner for her "inept leadership" in Libya as secretary of State.
"Hillary Clinton should be called to account for her inept leadership that brought about the chaos in Libya, and the power vacuums that resulted in the rest of the region," Webb wrote in a Facebook post Saturday.
Webb said Clinton has tried to frame the situation in Libya as a successful point in her tenure at the helm of the State Department.
But he said the removal of former Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi has only destabilized the region, giving rise to radical Islamic terrorism and fanning the flames of the Syrian civil war.

Just think of all the excitement ensuing from a "Webb-Santorum" bipartisan ticket.
It would be yuuuuuuge.

If Jim Webb says one is inept, he would know! George Allen was fooled by Webb.

They would have to forfeit the VA electoral vote since both live there.

Webb is right about this, removing Kaddaffi/Qadaffy, was a huge error.

Reagan disarmed Gaddafi in the ‘80’s, bombing one of his palaces and scaring him into turning over his WMD. He was never a problem after that.
I’ve never understood the rationale for killing him off, unless the aim was to bring out exactly what followed his death.

George Allen was the fool. He allowed the MSM to portray him as a bigot by the "Macaca moment." He kept on apologizing and apologizing for a nonsensical term that no one ever heard of.
Jim Webb, former Marine and Navy Cross winner, should have stayed in the GOP where he belongs.
