Technically he could jump in and tell all of the reinforcements to stand down, but if you believe he stood down career military without a hellish response you must be one of those conspiracy nuts.
your dodging. No I'm not a conspiracy nut
of course he's being advised but action/inaction the call is his to make, therefore he shoulders the success/blame of the course of action.
Secondly, he needs to lay down publicly what happened, LP already admitted he was on the phone with the personnel on the ground...if you don't think BHO was invloved you are insane.
No response to the resulting cover up? This is the tragedy...

There is no proof that Obama personally or even indirectly ordered the military off of the C-130 or refused a requests for jets to fly overhead. And it certainly isn't his place to offer up suggestions for how the military should do its job. I am sure that they are very good at offering up suggestions that they feel are viable to the President.
So are you in the camp that:
A) the President, without the suggestion from the military leaders in the room, should have started telling local air units to take off and maybe send in forces on the C-130?
Or
B) do you think the generals were screaming at him yelling "Our men are dying! We need you to authorize jets and the C-130!" but he refused?
