Sotloff Beheaded: Obama Flat-footed Again
While Barack Obama was wimping his way around Europe today, IS released a video purportedly showing the beheading of another American journalist.
This time it was Time reporter Steven Sotloff.
White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest reacted to the news of a second American journalist beheaded by ISIS.
Earnest said that he hadn’t seen the reports but that the administration had been watching the situation “very carefully.”
Just minutes before the White House press briefing, news broke that ISIS terrorists had released a beheading video of U.S. journalist Steven Joel Sotloff.
“Our thoughts and prayers first and foremost are with his family, and those who worked with him,” he said, adding the United States had dedicated “significant time and resources” to rescue him. [More]
Oh good, Josh. Nothing spells success like thinking and praying for the best after you’ve completely f***ed up on saving the guy’s life. One might say, Earnestly dumb.
Speaking of which…
You’d need a brain like a barrel sponge to blame this on anyone besides Barack Obama and his laissez-faire foreign policy, but it can be done.
Eric Roberts, a mind is a terrible thing to burn out on coke during the 1980s.
Heartbreak and outrage today in America.
