I cannot understand ...

Why Republicans could not wait to criticize this President when our Ambassador and Security were killed in Libya? It had to be Obama's fault that 4 of our people were killed by terrorists?

But I don't recall that many Democrats in Washington criticizing George W Bush when terrorists attacked the World Trade Center and the Pentagon and killed about 3000 of our citizens?

Why is Libya different from that and why do the Republicans feel they have the right to criticize our leaders when something like this happens but they don't think the Democrats have the right to criticize them??

It is hypocrisy in bright red, flashing, and embarrassing.

I agree with your questions & conclusions. Phil Donahue was canned for his anti-Iraq war stance, but the equivalent isn't happening on the other side now.
