A Day Late & $5 Trillion Short: Obama's Response to the Egypt & Libya Embassy Attacks Epitomizes His Failed Presidency...
How convenient. When Obama finally trotted out mid-morning Wednesday to grace us with his thoughts on the Tuesday 9/11 attacks on U.S. territory abroad (the U.S. Consulate in Libya and the U.S. embassy in Egypt ), he focused entirely on the later-occurring Libyan attack with not a mention of Tuesday morning's Egyptian attack! The attack in Egypt, of course, was the one where radical Islamic thugs overran the U.S. embassy, burned the American flag, and hoisted their own Al Qaeda-inspired flag atop the joint.
I can only surmise that Obama's deliberate ignoring of that attack and his complete focus on the later-occurring Libyan attack was intended to give him political cover for his disgraceful failure to say anything about these attacks on the day they actually occurred -- which, BTW, just happened to be 9/11. By treating the Egyptian attack as if it had never occurred, he and his minions (including his complicit lapdog "mainstream" media, all in line!) were able to claim Wednesday that he had simply waited "until all the facts were in" on the Libyan attack before he said anything.
What a laughable load of bunk! [I actually just laughed!] That's because the Egyptian attack did occur, and Obama should have had his ass out there on TV on Tuesday afternoon condemning it. As it stands, he still hasn't said anything about it! Not to mention, the Libyan attack also occurred during the day Tuesday, and we first knew that at least one person had been killed there by the early evening (also) on Tuesday.
For Obama to have said absolutely nothing Tuesday about either situation was completely deplorable and embarrassing, as noted in this space Tuesday night (Wednesday post). As Obama and his surrogates seemed so fond of saying back in 2008, you can't put lipstick on a pig, Mr. President.
