Fox political analyst Brit Hume told Megyn Kelly Tuesday that when it came to terrorism, the Obama administration is “loath to respond,” out of fear it would ruin their narrative that terrorism is dwindling and al-Qaida is on the run.
I think we’ve, all of us who have watched this whole administration response to terrorism in general, have, or many of us have concluded that the administration has been loath to respond very much to these things for fear of interfering with their kind of favorite narrative, which is that al-Qaida’s on the run and the tide of war is receding and the rest of that. And, of course, when these things happen, that fight that. And if the administration responds to them, I guess they feel that that further fights their narrative.
