Falling on the sword.

I am in shock. Hillary Clinton taking the blame for the Obama administration's failed disengagement strategy. What did the president offer Hillary in exchange for this feigned loyalty? For this proud, savvy politician to take the blame is noble. Yet to me there seems to be a little take on for the team in this one. I would attribute it to win at any cause for the liberals. They would rather continue to be in power than to lay blame where it should, square on Obama's shoulders. This lead from behind policy has brought the middle east to flames. Not surprising since this president believes that America is not exceptional. That we are just a common nation like Greece, Italy, Spain. Not that we have brought the world back from the brink of anarchy and collapse too many times to keep a count of. The bitter enemies Clinton and Obama have made a deal for something. I wonder.

The questions now are interesting. The state department and the administration are still blaming the intelligence community for making the decision of blaming this unseen movie. I have yet to hear in the hearings any member of the NSA state that the information came from them. So who made that call? The state department didn't. The state department was on the phone on real time with the consulate in Benghazi. The CIA was watching the consulate from a drone. The only one that was out of pocket and not briefed was the Whitehouse. The executive branch was out somewhere raising money and missing almost seventy percent of the intel briefings. Now an assessment for congressman Peter King (R) NY, is claiming that Al Quieda is stronger than ever. Remember that the CIA has stated that the have little human intelligence from the region. This is due to the kill them first, ask questions later policy of the Obama government.

I do not believe that the Secretary of State taking responsibility five weeks after the attack will quell public outrage. The president should have immediately gone on and informed us that there has been an attack, then told us what he was going to do about it. I don't think the View or Letterman were the appropriate or presidential place for this discussion. What's next? A saxophone solo on Leno?
