Surprise! It’s October!
This appears to be the same article from last week.
That won’t change the incompetence which led to the terror attacks in the first place. Just like OBL’s death is no game changer.
Anyone got (GP: does anyone have) an animated gif where the dog’s tail is stationary but the pooch is waving back and forth for all it’s worth?
Bit late, eh?
They guys who killed the ambassador are looooong gone. The shock value of punishment is gone - if we’d immediately issued an (impossible) ultimatum, followed by nuking Benghazi and Tripoli when they failed to comply, it would have gone a long way toward settling the Middle East (If you screw with the Americans everybody DIES!).

To quote one of my grandfather’s favorite punchlines: “You gonna talk or you gonna fish, Warden?”
