And each time we forget the past and repeat our past mistakes, the price gets higher. Americas are capable of incredible acts of political amnesia. This tendency is nowhere more evidence as when the right harps upon deficits and the national debt.
A Bush fetish? Not at all. I simply remember what happened and the complete, total silence of the right. Just trying to find out why it was alright with the right back then but now is some sort of imagined evil.
The president is the Commander in Chief. He shares with the military successes and is blamed for the military's failure. Had Seal Team Six failed, or worse, had they been k**led, the right would have been all over Obama like white on rice. Am I wrong on this? Or would it been "well, Seal Team Six failed." I doubt it.
Look at what happened in B******i, which ultimately rests on the president. There are posters on this forum who claim Obama had Ambassador Stevens k**led "because he (Stevens) knew too much." Or that Obama called directly to have aid for Stevens held back. It boggles the imagination.
If you want a culprit, look at the Republican House who cut the president's budget for embassey and consulate protection by 75%.
But tell me, had Seal Team Six failed, who would you have blamed?
And, no, you don't h**e. Keep telling yourself that. Have I every given George W. Bush or Ronald Wilson Reagan a derogatory name? No. It's the serial Obama h**ers who disrespect not only the man, but the office.
Again, who would you have blamed if Seal Team Six failed? that's an easy one.

Obama knew those at B******i were not safe and left them there. The British pulled their people out, as did the Red Cross. That nonsence about Republicans cutting funding is just Democrat spin to protect Obama. There were plenty of resources available but Obama did not use them. The famililies of those k**led in B******i have stated repeatedly that Obama, Hillary Clinton, Biden, and Panetta lied to them and have failed to answer any of their questions. I guess to you that is Bush's fault too. Face it, no amount of facts will ever change your worship of Obama and you will always find an excuse for everything he does.
