Ed Henry to WH's Earnest: Why Won't You Just Admit That You Were Wrong About Yemen? (RealClearPolitics)
At Wednesday's White House briefing, FOX News' Ed Henry bluntly asked Josh Earnest why the Obama administration won't admit that Yemen has been a failure.
"Why can't you just say, 'You know what, we were wrong. It is not a model for success,'" Ed Henry asked Earnest.
"Despite that chaos, which existed last fall, the president said it's a success," Henry said. "He was wrong, right? Why can't you say he was wrong and we're trying to fix it? We're trying to figure it out? It just seems like we're going around and around that it's still a model when it's not, right?"
