This has a very bad smell about it, as though this was a deliberate set up by the White House.
It would not surprise me if it had been.
I have been saying that for weeks now. There was no reason for the White House to fabricate the blame on some obscure film. All they ever had to say was, “under investigation.”
But ...no....they had to attempt to hang blame. May this be 0bama’s undoing.
It has the earmarks of a political assassination or in more frank language, murder.
The one remaining question is who was the top dog that orchestrated or gave orders to make it happen?
I would argue negligence. Pure and simple.
The administration was drifting, leaderless, rudderless. There was no concern for reality. Reality would take care of its self. The total mental and physical effort of the top echelon was the campaign.
It was far more important to find and seize any possible Romney utterance than it was to react to the distraction of a threat in Libya. There are threats every where, all the time.
The campaign is here and now.
