Could have sworn I posted a reply to this post....anyway...wordplay....it’s all about the worplay
“did not require such a meeting.”
Perhaps it’s just semantics, but there is a big difference between “not needed” and “stand down”. I think Obama has room to play here.
In fact, just saw tweet worded:
“US officials to @AP: No delays in rescue effort in Libya; team never told to stand down http://bit.ly/VGC0wZ"
Link to AP....THIS IS WHAT OBAMA’S GOING WITH:
