Shooting First, Aiming Later?

By Semperpapa

Obama used his appearance on one of the Obama media outlets to accuse Mitt Romney of "shooting first, aiming later" after Romney's response to the attacks against our diplomatic interests in Libya and Egypt.
Obama, with his usual arrogant and condescending face, attempted to show that HE, the ONE, is so versed at conducting foreign policy that nobody else can match his brilliance.

In the first place, Obama had, at the time of his taking office, even less experience than Romney in matters of foreign policy.
Moreover, the conditions of our foreign policy is so disastrous that if the current conditions are indicative of Obama policy making, we must hope that soon he will just go away to organize radicalism somewhere else, before we get into a war with Britain.

Back to the shooting, aiming thing.
Obama should avoid talking about jumping to conclusions, as he and his ilks, like Clinton and Susan Rice, have done just so by coming out publicly and "assessing" that the motivation for the attacks was some obscure video on the Internet.
Without going into too many details again about the statement Romney made on September 11, which was the ONLY presidential-worthy statement made immediately following the murder of our ambassador and the three other US citizens, it is clear that Romney's words were dictated by the apologetic tone that the administration took in regard to the violence perpetrated against our citizens.

If there is one example of shooting first and aiming later in this whole mess, it certainly comes from Obama and his little puppy dogs in the administration and in the media.
They came out and blamed the video before any real investigation had been made. Obama continued to spread that manure and to some degree still does, even after the officials at State and even his Jay Carney press secretary have finally stated that the attacks were coordinated and terrorist in nature.
Obama and the other disaster, Hillary Clinton, even went as far as spending $70,000 of taxpayers' money to appear on Pakistani television apologizing for America (the dividend of that debacle, by the way, was for the Pakistani government to launch a Day of Love on Friday, which cost the life of 19 people during the violence that erupted).

So the Middle East is exploding as we speak. The Obama administration is devastated by how their horrendous policies just blew up in their faces. Israel is in clear and present danger. Our embassies in 20+ countries are under siege from radical Islamist.
And the president goes on Letterman and goes party with his useless celebrities friends.
And even today, as the video and proof that the murdered citizens in Benghazi were tortured before being killed have surfaced, Obama does not seem to be perturbed by it, nor he seems to be distracted from trying to cover up his well designed foreign affairs incompetence.

Some foreign policy, uh?

Just my thoughts!
