Barack Obama, the 98-pound weakling
The Globe and Mail ^ | SEPTEMBER 14, 2013 | MARGARET WENTE

Posted on 09/15/2013 7:51:17 AM PDT by rickmichaels

So, let me get this straight. Some red lines cannot be crossed, and gassing Syrian children is one of them. That’s what Barack Obama told us Tuesday evening. “The images from this massacre are sickening,” he said. “Men, women, children lying in rows, killed by poison gas, others foaming at the mouth, gasping for breath. A father clutching his dead children, imploring them to get up and walk.”

The moral imperative is clear, he argued. We cannot let dictators get away with this. On the other hand, the United States can’t be expected to solve all the world’s problems, either. Therefore, the way ahead is to outsource U.S. foreign policy on Syria to … Vladimir Putin!

Look, Assad is a mega scumbag, but he maintains the stability just like Tito did in Yugoslavia. Once Assad is gone, then it is Al-Qaeda / Muslim Brotherhood crazies in charge.

Why Obama supports these murderous crazies is beyond me. Egypt, Libya and Syria all had or have DBags in charge, but Obama want to destabilize them so Islamo whackos can take charge and murder Christians.

Obama, the amateur. WORST President in history by far.

The worst part: the only Charles Atlas around seems to be Putin.

Progressive Obama does not view Syria as a failure---his only regret is that so many others do.

Transformational Ohaha WANTS the US to decline as a superpower.....and has worked toward that goal. Lib/progs are "uncomfortable" w/ the US as a global power....meandering all over the globe to work its will.

In the 2008 campaign the Obamas even talked down the sacrosanct “American dream”---the idea that you should work hard and get ahead.

The Govt-Gimme Obamas encouraged people to work for non-profits and volunteer---- instead of having ambition---to get jobs and succeed the American way.

They called it “middleclassism”---that's class warfare---again exposing their diehard Marxist beliefs.

The Obamadork.

Congrats, US.

We have the lowest IQ, sleaziest, and most spineless head (note, I didn’t say ‘leader’) in the entire multiverse.

Obama is slime mold.

Oddly enough, the same way you say it in American: Barack Obama.

Sounds like there are a bunch of obie clones responding to the article. The comment section is laughable to say the least.

Relative to President You Didn't Build That, he's a giant of a man, a clear and deep thinker, a statesman, and so forth. He's actually a puny-minded dunce and an economic ignoramus in the same category with Nikolai II, the last of the Romanov emperors.

A pox on both their houses!

Obama is totally inept, pathetically incompetent and mindless.

Much like the 65,915,796 idiots that voted for him.

“if there’s one thing worse than being a blundering giant, it’s being a 98-pound weakling.”

Big BUMP for the article
