Ok I won't argue with the Biden one, even I called it a fucking stupid move when it came out but I will say I don't remember Clinton (Black Hawk Down?) nor Obama abandoning troops

@Longpatrol Clinton=Blackhawk Down, Obama=Benghazi
I'm not sure if the Somali incident was abandonment or just incompetent planning and staffing for the mission. At least the Def/Sec Les Aspin took responsibility for the debacle.
Benghazi was abandonment. There was opportunity to help them. Instead, the administration let them be killed without even trying. What really grinds is the washing hands and "so what" attitude that followed.
