The Day Obama’s Presidency Died

Belmont Club via Free Republic

Good write up.  Obama had a failure and can't own up on it.  It only compounds the original failure.

Cohen and Gooch propose that all military failures fall into three basic categories: failure to learn from the past, failure to anticipate what the future may bring, and failure to adapt to the immediate circumstances on the battlefield.
Fernandez writes persuasively that Obama failed on all three counts in Benghazi.  That's the day his Presidency died, he writes.

The day the Republic may have died is when the opposition, Romney, could not recognize this and exploit it.  I bitched long and loud about the preoccupation with polls and such.

All Romney really needed was to hold Obama accountable for his failure at Benghazi and he would have made the case for his election.  But he went "bean bag" on us and he failed.  The failure goes beyond Obama, Romney, and the commentariat.

We need to wise up and wise up fast.  This is getting too dangerous.
