Isn't She Embarrassed?

Attorney General Loretta Lynch ought to be embarrassed.  First, she went on a slew of Sunday shows and said that her department would release an edited version of the transcripts of the Orlando terrorist talking to the 911 operators.  The transcripts deleted all mentions of Islam, ISIS, acting in the name of Allah and the like.  After an uproar about this attempt to change the record, Lynch backed down and released the full transcripts.  That was yesterday.  Today, Lynch went to Orlando where she told a group of survivors, first responders and family of the victims that she would work diligently to try to find out why the shooter did what he did.

I'm not making this up.  Lynch told these people whose lives were changed by an attack by a self-proclaimed Islamic terrorist that she would attempt to find out why the terrorist did it.  Is she kidding?  Maybe she should read those transcripts that she had edited just a day earlier.  You know the ones, it's those transcripts in which Omar Mateen proclaimed himself a "warrior of Allah", swore allegiance to ISIS and its leader al-Baghdadi, and announced his solidarity with the Boston Marathon bombers and other terrorists.

Lynch's actions seem more like a skit from the old Monty Python show than the actions of the Attorney General of the United States of America.  Isn't she embarrassed?  And if she's not, why not?
