Ask the folks over at Fox News and they will tell you the biggest mistake Barack Obama ever made was being born, but they’re so one-eyed that I’m still surprised every time they say Obama and not Osama.
Now, talking to Chris Wallace from the very same Fox News, Barack has opened up about his biggest gaffe since taking residence in the White House.
Huffington Post has the highlights of that exchange:
“Probably failing to plan for the day after what I think was the right thing to do in intervening in Libya,” Obama told Wallace during his first appearance on “Fox News Sunday” as president.
Obama previously expressed concern with the aftermath in Libya during an interview with The Atlantic, in which he called the situation there “a mess.”
“When I go back and I ask myself what went wrong, there’s room for criticism, because I had more faith in the Europeans, given Libya’s proximity, being invested in the follow-up,” Obama said, noting he also underestimated “the degree of tribal division in Libya.”
I’m not convinced that will appease the blood-hungry folk over at Fox, although it does take a pretty big man to walk into the lion’s den and admit exactly where he has dropped the ball.
