Obama White House falsely blames Ambassador Patterson for Morsi mess
MUSLIM-SYMPATHIZER PRESIDENT TRIES TO BLAME AMBASSADOR FOR FAILED POLICY. SAY IT AIN’t SO…
“It was President Obama’s demand that Patterson engage the Muslim Brotherhood. For administration staffers to now suggest that it was Patterson’s policy is ridiculous.
“No one should be surprised by the course this administration chose. Then-Senator Obama made it clear in his 2008 debate clash with Hillary Clinton that he believes America “has to talk to its enemies.” Indeed, at the same time that the administration was engaging the Muslim Brotherhood in Cairo, it was setting up peace talks with the Taliban in Qatar, to the apparent chagrin of our ally President Hamid Karzai in Kabul.
“Now that a large swath of the Egyptian people, backed by the Army, has removed President Morsi and the Muslim Brothers from office, unnamed administration officials believe that the Arkansas-born Patterson, who has excelled under presidents from both political parties and is respected on both sides of the aisle, should be the scapegoat. That cannot be allowed to happen.”
