That is an absolutely pathetic and unbelievable excuse. They would have had no idea how long the people there might hold out. They could have put assets in the air and had up to two hours to decide whether to use them while they were enroute. But nothing was deployed.

Glenn Beck just had the father of fallen Seal Tyrone Woods on his show. Was in and out, so I haven't been able to hear all of it.
