Astute observers are rightly noting that Hillary had a hand in the 2011 decision to overthrow Libyan strongman Qadaffi and replace him with... well, nothing but chaos.
But is this Monday morning quarterbacking? Is it fair to argue that Hillary could or should have foreseen a Libya divided along tribal lines, a dreadful refugee crisis, and the emergence of terror groups in the failed state?
Well, yes. For a bit of Sunday afternoon quarterbacking, let's excerpt this from March 22 2011, by Adam Garfinkle of The American Interest:
As noted, there is a regional and tribal element to the fight in Libya. It is unlikely that the Benghazi-based rebels could by themselves establish stable control over the whole country. It is almost as unlikely that the Tripolitanian tribes could re-establish firm control over Cyrenaica. Qaddafi managed the feat through a combination of patronage, terror and cooptation. That will be a very hard act to follow in the wake of so much bloodletting. We are therefore looking into the maw of a Libya that may well be divided, in the throes of some kind of protracted, at least low-level civil war, and that could very easily produce an insurgency spilling over the Egyptian and Tunisian borders—complete with refugees, the usual dysfunctional NGO triage operations and all the rest. And in due course, if the fractious mess lasts long enough, there is a reasonable prospect that al-Qaeda will find a way to establish a foothold amid the mayhem.
Who will want to send in peacekeepers to baby-sit a Libya that looks like that? Who’ll want to go to the UN to get the job authorized? The African Union?
Now, given that this sort of problem is foreseeable, and that it was also foreseeable before the cruise missiles started flying on Saturday, it stands to reason that a responsible, serious government will have thought about all this in advance, and come up with some plan for the post-combat “Phase IV” of the Libyan War, right? Not on your life; the President and his war council almost certainly have not even begun to think about this sort of thing, because they’re still in denial that it could happen. This is, after all, just a limited, humanitarian mission as far as they’re concerned. They don’t realize it yet, but these guys are on a path to make even Donny Rumsfeld and Tommy Franks look good—and you thought that was impossible.
Well, yes, that piece hit on refugees, terror groups, and an ongoing civil war in a failed state. And FWIW, I found it sufficiently persuasive to link to it back in the day, and recycle the main themes a few days later. The point being, these arguments were made in real time and ignored by the Administration, including our former Secretary of State.
As to the analogy to Iraq, well, the Colin Powell aphorism was that if you break it, you own it. Why don't Barack and Hillary own Libya? And can the Republicans let go of Benghazi and talk about the much larger failure of judgment involved in displacing Qadaffi with no credible plan to replace him?
The guy who got elected on 'No More Iraqs' gave us a new Iraq (and lost the original one!). With Hillary at his side encouraging our involvement.
"No tomatoes until the snow is off Shafer Butte."
When I used to hang sheetrock back in summer in High School, the rhyme one of the old toothless painters used to amuse us with in his hard to decipher "Down East" Harker's Island brogue, was this one:
"When the day is hot and sultry 'tis not the time to commit adultery,
But when the frost is on the pumpkin that's the time fer peter dunkin'."

Narciso,
Chelsea probably didn't need to. The WSJ's reporter, Bret Stephen's, on Megyn's Show said that Chelsea Clinton had been given $70,000 to give a speech on the dangers of childhood diarrhea in the 3rd World. He continued by saying that if you wanted to learn about childhood diarrhea there are better ways than giving 70 Grand to Chelsea, so what exactly were they purchasing with that money?
Posted by: daddy | April 23, 2015 at 12:17 AM

He's been in D.C. too long. Seeing a discussion of whether HARF or (heh heh) rear Admiral KIRBY (KIRBY SUX..heh heh again), should be the WINNER of the STATE DEPT SPOKESMODEL SWEEPSTAKES, is like choosing WHICH EYE YOU'D LIKE POKED OUT. Rosen seems to think that EITHER or BOTH are actually HONEST or QUALIFIED. Both are DIM BULBS at best. Why does this NATION consider CELEBRITY to be equal to competence, talent or ability??
It's like choosing between GOEBBELS or REIFENSTAHL. Both were lying criminals.

GUS,
Saw your James Rosen rant above. When I watched it I was wondering who Rosen was trying to score points with. His statements came across to me as something for public consumption, and definitely not from the heart. Perhaps he just wanted to diminish Chris Matthews, while at the same time doing a little brown-nosing with Harf's new boss. Maybe I'm misreading him, but I think if I was his bartender I'd be hearing a different take.

Now before Perry is able to exonerate Miss America by dumbfounding Hamilton Burger and getting the real killer to spill his guts on the witness stand
Perry has to deal with a nasty young punk who gave every indication he might have been the murderer. Here's that young punk:

While it is good that the John Doe abuse is getting national coverage, it is not clear that it has any staying power.
1. It is already at the SC level, both state and federal. The state SC didn't have oral arguments, instead going with sealed briefs. A ruling there is a month or so away. I'm not sure the fed SC will actually look at it, or whether a Kennedy would open the immunity can of worms if they did.
2. Walker is clean, not even any leaks saying otherwise. So the MSM is on ignore. His emails were already dumped (the County Exec ones) last summer and all they got was the "Molotov" typo.
3. Austin is just as bad, but Perry is clean as well. The MSM doesn't want to let the deranged fascist label get attached to the left (themselves) so that connection will not be made.
Until the entire staff at the Milwaukee DA's office is perp walked and sued into the cardboard box lifestyle, there is no dramatic image to show on TV. That action requires the SC to strip immunity by overruling the en banc 7th Circuit. I don't like the odds on them doing anything that reeks of justice when they can call it a tax or something. Then again the raisin theft may be a tipping point.

We were marched around the block by union teachers in silent protest of the 'Silent Spring' (you think this serf thing is recent?). Of course for me the most important thing that day was Tom Terrific Seaver striking out 19 Padres that afternoon at Shea. The weather in NYC that day? 63F sunny. The NYC weather on Earth Day #46 yesterday? about 63F cloudy, then the storms moved through and it's cold now.

"Mr. Steffen’s e-mail exchanges with MD4Bush were published in The Washington Post in February 2005. It caused a political uproar that spawned an investigation of the Ehrlich administration — the General Assembly’s first of someone outside the legislature in more than 25 years.
MD4Bush later was shown to be associated with an e-mail address of Ryan O’Doherty at the Maryland Democratic Party. Mr. O’Doherty, who has ties to Mr. O’Malley, worked as the party’s communications director at the time."
