Wow. Just Wow.
One of the worst Presidents ever. As I declared before the election, and his 2nd term is a fucking disaster. He hasn't done anything right or accomplished jack squat. And many of his misdeeds and fuck-ups from the 1st term that were buried and hidden have come out.
First he ignores Syria and the civil war and the slaughter of innocents.
Then he states that 10's of thousands of dying isn't worth getting dragged into war over, BUUUUUUT if the "red line" of chemical weapons is used, well, that would change everything.
How, I don't know, but stay with me here, that is what the Pres. said.
Then, it is pretty clear chemical weapons were used starting 6 months ago.
Crickets. Oh well, let's forget the red line.
After the coup in Egypt, when Obama and the W.H. talked, nobody listened. Worse, many area leaders openly mocked Obama and the Administration. Putin is having fun. Even worse still, the man on the street now HATE Obama (and Clinton). Credibility and power in the region in tatters. (Jimmy Carter say Hi!)
Then, a major chemical attack happens in Syria with hundreds gruesomely killed - including many small children.
Now, Obama jumps to attention. Starts collecting intelligence and to form a "coalition" of powers to jump into the quagmire and do something big in Syria. Obama claims there is proof that Assad did it, but the "proof" must not be that convincing as the number of coalition partners dwindles to near zero. Putin again mocks Obama.
Obama comes out and says he will go it alone. He doesn't need the world's approval. He doesn't need Congress approval. He will do what is "right".
Ok. Fine. Whatever. We get it. You need to prove you are not the pussy you have been acting like. You need to re-establish some bonifides in the Middle East as you have virtually none right now. You need to stand by your stupid "red-line" statement and act more like Bush (yes, it is true) and less like Jimmy Carter. You need to show some conviction and backbone.......
And, now we go back to spineless. He will fob it off to Congress, stall and delay, and unless they can find some real proof that Assad did this, he can go back to the golf course.
Does he have a guiding policy? A plan? Or, is this just all off-the-cuff? Certainly seems like he is "leading from behind" as he has done for much of his Presidency.
