the administration's actions in the aftermath of what was an avoidable but unintentional tragedy have been despicable.

Now contrast that with Reagan's response. Reagan immediately took the blame as the Commander-In-Chief, going so far as to tell the media and Amercian people that as President he was at fault, not the Marine commanders on the ground.

He then went on to immediately address the horrendous security situation for our military installations around the world and at home - and it got fixed.

This administration's first instinct was (is) to find a scapegoat to give themselves cover. Which is pathetic - and dangerous.

Not really. Obama called it an act of terror the very next day in his press briefing on it. The video wasn't even mentioned until 5 days after the attack when Rice went on one of the Sunday morning talk shows and mentioned it. And the video talking point came from the CIA.
