Point 1: A platoon on the ground +/-2 hours. If they wanted troops to respond ask soon as possible. That is what QRF is there for.
Point 2: Military/former military are upset because if you are in charge, you are responsible for all that happens or fails to happen.
Of late our political leadership believes only in how important they are, and the three year old mentality of not taking responsibility for their actions/ or lack of.

Hillary’s stupid comment during that hearing was her attempt to deflect the nation away from investigating the failures that led to the Benghazi tragedy. Her response was something Bill, after being caught with Monica, asking, “What difference does it make why I did it? All we need to talk about is how to avoid this kind of thing in the future!”

I don’t think Hillary meant to imply the deaths didn’t matter. She did mean to imply the reason didn’t matter. Either way, she’s worthless as a leader and the entire nation should be disgusted with her.

Great article Chris. Yet, you failed to mention Hillary’s “what difference does it make” comment when being questioned. Another example of her lack of remorse or personal decency regarding the slaughter of fellow Americans. I’m not understanding why there is not more outrage over this incident. Whether one is a Democrat or Republican should not even been considered. Facts are facts. Wrong is wrong.

Sinbad was an Obama supporter during the 08 election. He had some pretty cutting comments for Hillary when she tried to run with the sniper story.

I think you might be on to something. . .

I’m pretty sure Petraeus knew he better stay invisible and silent if he didn’t want to get smashed about Broadwell. Unfortunately, he got smashed anyway.

Just a gut feeling, I have no way to prove it.

Randy,

You made some concise and intelligible points with the comment you just wrote. Keep them coming.

You reminded me of something a good friend wrote several years ago, after a terrorist attack overseas: “Someday these terrorists will hit a really important target like an iPod factory. Then the public will really get pissed.”

Yup, I remember that. Pretty embarrassing.

Joe,

Well. . . I hope it doesn’t all lead to the President. That’s about all I can say.

Some reporting I’ve heard said that only Hillary could have authorized the ambassador to be at an embassy or consulate that lacked a certain level of protection. The democrats are correct when they say we need to improve security to prevent future tragedies; however, that doesn’t mean we should ignore all the failures that led to this attack.

The line that keeps being offered, “We need to focus on the future, not worry about the past” is like Bill Clinton saying to Hillary, “Let’s not worry about what I did with Monica, let’s focus on making sure it doesn’t happen again.”

Baxley,

Understood, that’s a good policy.
