Rep. Waltz, ex-Green Beret, warns against Susan Rice as VP pick: I was on front lines of her 'poor judgment'

Former National Security Adviser Susan Rice is unfit to be vice president because her policy ideas cannot be implemented amid the “kind of threats the United States is facing around the world,” Rep. Michael Waltz, R-Fla., said on Monday. “I was on the front lines of Susan Rice’s poor judgment, bad policy, she would be bad for our military and dangerous for this country,” the former Green Beret commander told “Fox & Friends.” “I had to lead the search for Bowe Bergdahl, where men died looking for him. He abandoned his unit and then to see Susan Rice declaring him a hero who served with honor and distinction after all of that was just a slap in the face for me and it was a slap in the face for everyone out there looking for him,” Waltz said. Rice, rumored to be on Joe Biden’s running mate short list, is dismissing what she has described as “harping” from Republicans on her role in the Obama administration's response to the 2012 Benghazi terror attack. Rice blasted Republicans for failing to summon any outrage when, "under Donald Trump’s watch," three Americans were killed on a U.S. military base in Pensacola, Fla., last year in a terrorist attack inspired by Al Qaeda. It appears to be the first foreign-directed terrorist attack on U.S. soil since 9/11 – "because the Defense Department failed to adequately vet the Saudi military personnel who are being trained on that base,” she said in an interview with The Atlantic. “But no investigation, no outrage, not a boo out of congressional Republicans.” Waltz said that Rice would “refuse to call a terrorist a terrorist by calling them an extremist.” “Year after year of cutting the military’s budget, she would move our foreign policy backward, not forward,” Waltz said.

From her first day, we knew what she was.

There is a slight chance she could be our President a year from now and it makes my guts churn.

There is a slight difference from claiming a defector is a national hero and being the victim of a terrorist attack. But then if you suffer from the Biden disease all trains to China must fly over the ocean.

Waltz is a first-term Congressman (holding the seat formerly held by Ron DeSantis). Just checked his Wikipedia page--nothing about the search for Bergdahl.

As a white man his criticisms of a black woman will be ignored or dismissed.

Susan Rice is the least qualified person to become VP. She is the epitome of the appointee that will take the bullet for the boss, but her mental faculties are minimum.
Her performance, post Benghazi, was so piss poor, it was laughable. She and HR Clinton lost all credibility then and, therefore, any chance of being elected to any office, including dog catcher.
