#2 Half-truths possibly. There might have been a bit more to the presidential instruction:
"make sure we are securing our personnel and doing whatever we need to do.....
....The use of kinetic action or deadly force is not authorized at this time.

#3 "Notice the repeated use of the present tense, implying that he gave the order during the attack."
"The minute I found out what was happening . . . I gave the directive," he said, "to make sure we are securing our personnel and doing whatever we need to do. I guarantee you everybody in the CIA and military knew the number-one priority was making sure our people are safe."
Obama also uses the personal pronouns I, me, my and mine more than most--the language of the full blown narcissist.

#5 Obviously the fault lies with the phone system and the millionaires who run it profiting while our troops are in need of fresh information and morale boost from their government during tough times. Reelect me and you can be sure that the phone company involved and everyone deemed to have a phone will be made to pay for this action (or lack of action).

Rantburg was assembled from recycled algorithms in the United States of America. No
trees were destroyed in the production of this weblog. We did hurt some, though. Sorry.
