Major Eric Stahl, Air Force Ret.
Bret Baier’s recent interview with Retired Air Force Major Eric Stahl, (the pilot of the C-17 used to evacuate the injured consulate staff and the four bodies from Libya on 9/11/12), was stunning for many reasons, not the least of which was his on the ground perspective during the immediate aftermath, and how the president and Mrs. Clinton’s versions lacked much of the actual truth. However when we examine his account in the context of an Obama foreign policy which appears to be disintegrating before our very eyes, it takes on a whole new urgency if you will.
For the life of me, be it Benghazi, Crimea, Syria, the Bergdahl debacle, and now the imploding security situation in Iraq, it’s hard to imagine things getting any worse in terms of this president’s international approach. Nevertheless, and in the face of overwhelming evidence, we continue to see and hear the faithful sycophants defend and deflect with a political zeal that could only make a Clinton jealous.
I’ve always expected President Obama’s policies would come back to haunt him. But quite frankly I didn’t think it would happen so quickly and with such a thunderous roar. In the end, I predict his approval ratings will set a new low mark in American presidential history, with only those whole heartedly committed (as he is) to the “transformation” of our great nation, hanging on to the rails of an obviously sinking ship. Moreover, he will likely take his place aside Jimmy Carter as an even more poignant example of style over substance when we could least have afforded it…
