Shughart and Gordon asked to be set down in Mogadishu to try and save their fellow Americans. They had to know that it was probably a last stand for them. That’s courage. Those were warriors. It is an affront to their memory that no effort was made to help the Americans in Benghazi. I don’t care if all they could do was buzz them with a drone and then crash it into whoever they could find. I don’t care if American pilots had to land at an unsecured airport after dropping their ordinance because they were out of fuel. We’re Americans Goddamnit! We take care of each other when the bullets are flying. You think those New York Firefighters wanted to go up those stairs on 9/11? Those were warriors! They were by God going to try. Obama and Hillary need to resign because they’re chickenshit. I want to hear from the head of the Air Force and the head of the Navy about what could have been done. I don’t have any trust in Obama or Hillary or Biden or Panetta or Petraeus or Seymour. What the hell happened? Americans died!
From the article:
“In speeches the next day, he certainly suggested that he understood what had happened, referencing acts of terror in his Rose Garden remarks and then more explicitly calling the raid “terror” in a campaign speech in Las Vegas that night.”
