What's funny is that IC's takeaway from Reagan's gutless retreat from Lebanon (at least, that's what they'd call it if Reagan were a Democrat) is some barely coherent observation about Jimmy Carter.

Yes, please enlighten us: what about Jimmy Carter made Reagan decide to cut and run after the bombing?

"Keeps beating"... you mean from prior to the 2010 elections when he had a super majority?

It did get me thinking, tho, and I couldn't help but notice that the article didn't mention a thing before 2009.....was this not a problem before Obama took office?

Were embassies not attacked pre-Obama?
Yes they were.

Was Bush warned? Did Bush trust the Muslim Brotherhood for security?

While Marines are typically relied on to defend U.S. territory abroad, such as embassies, these reports indicate that the Obama administration was relying on Egypt’s new Muslim Brotherhood-backed government to ensure American security, a move observers are questioning as violence in Cairo continues to rage

No, I mean like in 2008, when he won, and this November, where he's the odds-on favorite to beat your asses again.

Also: you might want to look up the definition of a supermajority, as I don't think it means what you think it means in the context of legislative politics.

While Marines are used, the State Department has its own security force.. .. but to rely on a blog for factual info is a tad premature.

Would find it incomprehensible if they were not armed..

This is one of those things that if it sounds too good to be true it usually is, free newspapers in the DC area usually have an agenda..
