If so, it is an entirely new standard. Apparently, Mr. Panetta has set new rules for the military. Heroism and courage are out. Now, when we get a request for emergency assistance, when people are being shot, instead of rushing in to save lives, which is what my understanding is of what the military has done in every previous conflict, we wait until after everyone has been shot and we can get good information about what happened. Well, I&#8217;m glad that he&#8217;s not my local chief of police or head of the fire department, but I&#8217;m sad for the country that a man with this amount of excuse-making potential is in charge of our nation&#8217;s defense.<\/p>\n<p><iframe src=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/plugins\/like.php?href=www.libertymusings.com&amp;layout=standard&amp;show_faces=false&amp;width=450&amp;action=like&amp;colorscheme=light&amp;height=35\" scrolling=\"no\" frameborder=\"0\" style=\"border:none; overflow:hidden; width:450px; height:35px;\" allowTransparency=\"true\"><\/iframe><br \/>\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\"><!--\ngoogle_ad_client = \"pub-4419877247826466\";\n\/* 336x280, created 7\/26\/10 *\/\ngoogle_ad_slot = \"2207044504\";\ngoogle_ad_width = 336;\ngoogle_ad_height = 280;\n\/\/-->\n<\/script><br \/>\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\"\nsrc=\"http:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/show_ads.js\">\n<\/script><\/p>\n<p>Click here to visit the Liberty Musings <a href=\"..\/\">conservative politics<\/a> home page.<\/p>\n\t<div class=\"quickshare-container\">\r\n\t<ul class=\"quickshare-genericons monochrome quickshare-effect-expand\">\r\n\t\t<li class=\"quickshare-share\">Share:<\/li> \r\n\t\t<li><a href=\"https:\/\/facebook.com\/sharer.php?u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.libertymusings.com%2Fblog%2Fwatching-one-person-after-another-lose-their-soul-for-obama%2F&amp;t=Watching+one+person+after+another+lose+their+soul+for+Obama+<+The+Liberty+Musings+Blog\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Share on Facebook\"><span class=\"quickshare-facebook\">Facebook<\/span><\/a><\/li>\t\t<li><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/intent\/tweet?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.libertymusings.com%2Fblog%2Fwatching-one-person-after-another-lose-their-soul-for-obama%2F&amp;text=Watching+one+person+after+another+lose+their+soul+for+Obama+<+The+Liberty+Musings+Blog\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Share on Twitter\"><span class=\"quickshare-twitter\">Twitter<\/span><\/a><\/li>\t\t<li><a href=\"http:\/\/pinterest.com\/pin\/create\/button\/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.libertymusings.com%2Fblog%2Fwatching-one-person-after-another-lose-their-soul-for-obama%2F&amp;media=&amp;description=In+an+earlier+post%2C+I+compared+the+Libya+scandal+to+Watergate%2C+and+marveled+at+how+many+people+are+willing+to+corrupt+themselves+to+defend+this+administration%3A+the+establishment+media+outlets%2C+Charles+Lane%2C+Candy+Crowley.+Well%2C+over+the+weekend+we+had%26hellip%3B\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Share on Pinterest\"><span class=\"quickshare-pinterest\">Pinterest<\/span><\/a><\/li>\t\t<li><a href=\"http:\/\/linkedin.com\/shareArticle?mini=true&amp;url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.libertymusings.com%2Fblog%2Fwatching-one-person-after-another-lose-their-soul-for-obama%2F&amp;title=Watching+one+person+after+another+lose+their+soul+for+Obama&amp;source=The+Liberty+Musings+Blog&amp;summary=In+an+earlier+post%2C+I+compared+the+Libya+scandal+to+Watergate%2C+and+marveled+at+how+many+people+are+willing+to+corrupt+themselves+to+defend+this+administration%3A+the+establishment+media+outlets%2C+Charles+Lane%2C+Candy+Crowley.+Well%2C+over+the+weekend+we+had%26hellip%3B\" title=\"Share on Linkedin\" target=\"_blank\"><span class=\"quickshare-linkedin\">Linkedin<\/span><\/a><\/li>\t\t<li><a href=\"https:\/\/plus.google.com\/share?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.libertymusings.com%2Fblog%2Fwatching-one-person-after-another-lose-their-soul-for-obama%2F\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Share on Google+\"><span class=\"quickshare-googleplus\">Google+<\/span><\/a><\/li>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<li><a href=\"mailto:?subject=The+Liberty+Musings+Blog:+Watching+one+person+after+another+lose+their+soul+for+Obama&amp;body=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.libertymusings.com%2Fblog%2Fwatching-one-person-after-another-lose-their-soul-for-obama%2F\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Share via Email\"><span class=\"quickshare-email\">Email<\/span><\/a><\/li>\t<\/ul>\r\n\t<\/div>\r\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In an earlier post, I compared the Libya scandal to Watergate, and marveled at how many people are willing to corrupt themselves to defend this administration: the establishment media outlets, Charles Lane, Candy Crowley.
