Obama hit the snooze button when that 3 AM phone call came in about Yemen

Ed Lasky







I guess Obama was too busy passing ObamaCare, too busy on the links or attending the musical soirees in the East Room, too busy on the vacations and playing basketball with the dream team of NBA superstars.





The Washington Post reports:







Influential Yemenis and U.S. allies repeatedly warned American diplomats in 2009 and 2010 of the growing vulnerability of President Ali Abdullah Saleh, according to several previously undisclosed U.S. diplomatic cables. Despite those warnings, the Obama administration continued to embrace Saleh and became increasingly dependent on him to combat an al-Qaeda affiliate.
