When Did This Worthless Nincompoop Ever Take Responsibility for Anything He's Screwed-Up?

Obama and the Bitch-of-Benghazi were plenty pleased with themselves for their "leading from behind" in the disaster coined as the "Arab Spring."

Unprecedented attack by serving US President claims UK was 'distracted'     

Barack Obama has sharply criticised David Cameron for the UK’s role in allowing Libya to become a “shit show” after the fall of the dictator Muammar Gaddafi, in an unprecedented attack on a British leader by a serving US President.

Mr Obama said that following a successful military intervention to aid rebels during the 2011 Arab Spring revolt, Libya was left to spiral out of control – due largely to the inaction of America’s European allies.

In a candid US magazine interview, Mr Obama said: “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.”
Singling out the British Prime Minister, he suggested that Mr Cameron had taken his eye off Libya after being “distracted by a range of other things”. [All this while Obama spent his time fundraising and golfing, as he couldn't deal with the complicated international problem.]
