Yeah. Find it odd that the Times and Scarborough would spout the regime’s line.
This is hardly the regime's line.
Even if this story is factually inaccurate on when the “national response force” became available for use in Benghazi, it hardly rebounds to the administration’s credit. Either they were cowards afraid to deploy the forces into combat or they were incompetents who put our assets in Libya in danger through gross negligence and dereliction of duty. So “spouting the regime’s line” or not, the story documents the complete and utter collapse of the administration’s foreign policy.
Agreed. Rowan’s story would indicate that Obama couldn’t help when the truth is he wouldn’t help. Is a long term policy failure worse than a shortterm policy failure? Not if there was a decision to disallow a rescue that night.
That’s how it read to me.
