Exactly. As I said this act by itself is enough to disqualify Obama from the Presidency.

“Cheney: Why didn’t Obama just destroy the drone when he had the chance?”

Only two possible answers:

1.) Too stupid to think of something so logical
2.) The drone was meant to be right where it is now

You are presuming Zero has a backbone.

He would have run and hidden if he could. He has the same maturity as a grade school kid who sent a baseball through the neighbor’s window.

I just hope the eventual nominee has the b***s to use this as a campaign issue against King Barry (p*** be upon him).

Don’t worry, Barry asked the Iranians to give it back. Problem solved.

For the same reason on his very first day in office he tried to close down Gitmo and why he wants the biggest mass murderer in US history, Khalid Sheik Mohamed, tried as a US Citizen with full Constitutional rights so he can be aquitted. Oh yes-Then assisting Libya overthrow Khaddafi so it can go 100% Islamo-Nazi and suing Arizona for enforcing it’s immigration laws, and oh yes; Immediately overturning Don’t ask don’t tell when it was found out a homoseuxal was resposible for the biggest military security breach in US history. And Cheney is asking WHY our first foreign born first Islamic President didn’t destroy the drone?

Why dont you all leave the undocumented Impostor alone
on this?

He was playing golf and fundraising.

Maybe he even had to work with Holder to have the
DOJ “remove” a few witnesses, here and there.

Why didn’t Obama just destroy the drone when he had the chance?

Because then China wouldn't have funneled the agreed upon amount of money into his 2012 campaign coffers. The agreement was specifically for a fully intact drone...

Not to defend Obama if this article is true. But personally, I need a little more evidence that the destruction of the drone either before or after the landing was feasible. Design-wise I'm sure that in-the-air destruction was built in and with backup systems to make sure they could do it with very high reliability. But Murphy's Law sometime comes into play.

A couple of other things: One, the idea that Iran took control of this vehicle is simply nonsensical. The links may be jammable with enough power but the control signals would be highly encrypted and even with Russian help the Iranians could not control that aircraft. And they didn't shoot it down or it wouldn't still be in one piece. So it simply failed.

And the prospects for a successful Special Ops move on the downed drone seem problematic to me. Big disadvantage for the good guys in that kind of an operation. I doubt if the Generals would have recommended it.

Bottom line: Destroy in the air. If Obama could have and didn't that is treason pure and simple.

He had the choice of making a military decision or a political decision. A military decision would have been like take bin Laden out. He could have told the military to blow up the drone, which I’m sure the military presented to him. Instead of the military decision he made a political decision. Do nothing and hope for the best. He may have been worried that the military attack could have been interpreted as an attack on Iran. If Iran were to shoot down a drone, if they had one, over US territory we would do the same and call it an attack on the US.
Now Iran has threatened to block the Strait of Hormus. My guess is Obama will make another political decision and do nothing. Prepare for higher gas prices and emboldened Iranian actions.

The military should have destroyed it and then apologized to zero.
