Obama admits Libya failure

Bomb when you think the belligerents might attack and do nothing when the belligerents do attack - even after he told Assad he would - Really? The reality is he allowed Russia's leadership to slip stream the crisis and that is what really derailed military action in Syria. Obama's requested authorization for military intervention in Syria but didn't get it because of his over reach in Libya.

"President Obama said Saturday he'll go to Congress for approval before launching a strike against Syria, but he also made it clear that he doesn't believe he needs anyone else's permission."

~ but he does - that's why he's asked.

Likewise Hillary supported his strike plans. If it wasn't for congress or Russia stepping in we would be looking at another Vietnam like conflict in Syria. Meanwhile much of what was going on in Libya also coincided with the Iranian nuke talks. I believe that SoS and POTUS knew that there was a possible Iranian linkage to the attacks via Ansar al-Sharia and did everything in their power to obfuscate this information. Back 2012 Saudi Arabia accused Iran of supporting Ansar Al-Sharia in Yemen (yes Sunni's and Shia's work together). Why Iran helped in the attack- for us arming rebels in Syria who were fighting Bashar Assad - Iran’s ally. Iraq, Iran, Libya, and Syria are all fails.

This is what happens when a community organizer plays foreign policy maker - the shit gets sideways on you.

Libya was a failure - thanks for the news flash Mr. President.

wait! I thought the GOP was just dragging this out and there was nothing to see? That video sure must have been a good one to inspire a complex attack on two compounds.

I hope it's the administration's first step in saying "Don't vote Democrat for President!"
