The Russian leadership, hardly believing its luck, needs no interpreter to understand that when the Obama team clownishly rushes in bearing gifts and "reset" buttons, there is nothing ulterior, diabolical, clever or even serious behind it. It is amateurishness, wrapped in naivete, inside credulity. In short, the very stuff of Nobels.

Great article, read it all.

I’ll bet the Russians have a 50 teams of Spetnaz and FSB in Washington DC, making sure nothing happens to “Their Gift from Heaven”.
krauthammer, the obama enabler from 2008. too little, too late. he’s trying to protect his own ‘legacy’???
No one can tear the Left a new A-hole like Krauthammer. He is a pundit equivalent of a surgeon: he goes right for the heart and wields language like a scapel. The man is a national treasure (for the Right).
No wonder we know nothing about OZero’s suspected drug pushing during the 80’s. Rather than confront an opponent, he just moved to a different street corner. No confrontation, no shots fired, no arrests.
Just about nine months in office and the gestation period of redistribution and non confrontational diplomacy needs an abortion.

That's what I've long called Obama! It's a fact, Obama is the gardener from the movie, “Being There”!
And the sad fact is that the world initially thought Obama was a serious person and now there on to him that he is completely vacuous. A friend of mine once told me, “When you put a clown in charge, you get funny results.”
Obama is screwing every thing up. He has zero success.
Good point. Krauthammer loved Obama. Tried to help sell this guy back months ago saying he was okay. We tried to tell Krauthammer and now we are eventually, and quite literally, going to have disaster visited upon us in this country.
This column terrifyingly demonstrates how utterly Obama is shifting the very foundation of this country right out from under our feet.
Except it's not very funny is it? It's darn right dangerous.
Hopefully the Russians still believe we have free and fair elections and can re-elect adult leadership in 4 years.
or maybe they know better.
Day by day, O is proving that you can fill a galaxy with what he does NOT know.
Evita is just aping what she thinks diplomats do. You can put what she knows about diplomacy in the navel of a flea and still have room for a new Cadillac. Clueless...all of them!!
Of course... without patriotism, love of country, an understanding of American traditions and Americas place in the world, respect for America/Americans and their well-being what else can we expect from them?
A ship without a rudder...thats what we are now. And the world knows it!
The leaders of countries all over the world know that it is time to get while the getting is good.
Agree and Bump!
Freepers, if you have never seen the movie “Being There”, now is the time. It’s a modern-day “Emperor has no Clothes” story and a brilliant movie you need to see.
“It is amateurishness, wrapped in naivete, inside credulity. In short, the very stuff of Nobels.”
“Chauncey Gardiner - And the sad fact is that the world initially thought Obama was a serious person and now there on to him that he is completely vacuous.”

Krauthammer had me cheering up to his very last sentence. Rush keeps saying, “This is not an accident folks; this is by design” and I agree.
Vacuous Chauncey Gardiner, yes, but behind him there are very deliberate manipulators, and together with Obama, they are transforming their common agenda into reality, both domestic and foreign.
If we keep calling Obama incompetent, amateurish, and naive, he will have proven to be the perfect front man-—just like they thought he would be.
although not nearly the "intellectual equivalent", Sean Hannitty and others who opposed obama with every ounce of strength and every moment in front of the camera deserve to be 'promoted' for courage under fire.
krauthammer, on the other hand, needs to be removed from active duty for allowing the enemy to gain too much ground.

"It is amateurishness, wrapped in naïveté, inside credulity."
With an Alinskyite twist and Frankfurt School chaser.
Is he now? Is he a failure?
What goals are you measuring his success by?
If you measure by our goals - a prosperous, free society, yeah, he’s failing.
But by HIS goals, maybe he’s a supreme success.
A surgeon would impeach Pres_ _ent Obama
3 years!!
ping for later
Oh, come on -- where did you hear/read this?
Makes you wonder how The Magic Negro got over on Charlie Kraut. Axelrod sent goons around to threaten to take Charlie's chair away? Or did he just dislike Sarah Palin that much? Lots of "conservative" pundits did.
Well, let's start, then. Who are they? Let's call some names.
Let's see. Vernon Jordan first walked Obama around some Clintonista parties and social gatherings back in 2002. And Jordan was in tight with all the Clintonites, Mr. Fixit his own self.
Tom Daschle has been a strategic campaign advisor behind the scenes and basically designed the Obama campaign as the "big empty silver screen" of generalizations and atmospherics -- smoke and mirrors -- that would invite people to project their hopes uncritically upon Obama.
Slick and Beast have supplied a very thick slice of Obama's communication and political staff: Rahm Emanuel, John Podesta, Carville and Begala and little Georgie Clintonopoulos who gets paid by ABC for working for the Klintonx ...... plenty of other Klintoon veterans in the great departments and agencies and the new, unconstitutional "czarati": Leon Panetta, Carole Ross Browner, and guess what? I bet Jamie Gorelick has a job! That's in-the-dark guesswork, but I bet she's got a carpenter-beetle-in-the-woodwork job somewhere in D.C.
The New Party people in Chicago around Bobby Rush, Bill Ayers, and Bernardine Dohrn have been Obama's working milieu for about 10 years, since he came over from his of-counsel job at ACORN.
And don't forget Leftists sugar daddy George Soros, whose foundations and front groups have fingers in pies all over the American Left.
That's for starters. Got more?
It’s more like the Farside of two lions feasting on a hyena and the one lion says to the other lion: “does this taste funny to you?”
I believe der leader made reference to some drug use early in his adult years. Seems to me a short jump from use to dealing to pay for your passion since allegedly he had no other source of income.
I am still waiting for his undergraduate classmates to come forward and actually recall him from those years. Seems a bit strange they have not yet been identified given how “popular” he is with the masses.
Good analysis of how he ‘got here’, but Soros is defintely calling the shots now, IMHO.
