Will be WHITE WASHED by those who write it and ONLY the current books written at this time will hint at his total failure and embarrasement to the nation and to especially black people...IMO.

If the DNC could hire ISIS squads to work right here in America, they would write the checks in ten seconds. Just no black pajama's, masks, or AK-47's.

Anthony Pellicano style.

Am slightly ashamed to admit to a certain degree of schadenfreude.

For 40 years I’ve listened to people blaming the US for every bad thing that happens in the world. We’re blamed for not stopping bad things quickly enough, and then we’re blamed for the negative side effects that inevitably occur when we do take action to try to stop bad things.

So here you go, world. This is what you said you wanted, a US that doesn’t interfere in other country’s affairs. I hope you enjoy it.

Sadly for the president and the country he leads, his own over-eagerness to disengage from global responsibilities and to back away from military commitments has stimulated just the sort of forces he describes as retrograde.

Power, like Nature, abhors a vacuum. If you 'disengage' from the world powers stage, then someone or something will gladly fill it. Putin, ISIS, China, come to mind.......................

"History" is not an actor with a point of view and a direction. You cannot be on its "wrong" side. Progressives tend to believe that the world is evolving, through some unseen but inexorable force, toward greater peace, equality, prosperity and justice. The great task for a leader of the United States, Obama appears to believe, is to get out of history's way. That's why it's a good idea to reduce our army to its smallest size since 1940, and to reduce the Marines by 8 percent. According to the American Thinker, the Army chief of staff recently testified that due to cutbacks in training funds, 75 percent of our forces are not combat ready. Apparently that's OK, because according to the words of Martin Luther King Jr., which Obama had embroidered into the Oval Office rug, "The arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends toward justice."

It doesn't bend towards justice. It bends towards judgment.

“The future must not belong to those who slander the prophet of Islam” - Barack Hussein Obama I - September 25, 2012

Obama and ‘History’.

For history’s sake, the Obama regime is an amalgamation of Mussolini, Mao, Stalin and Hitler all rolled into a Che Guevera wrapper, smoking the entire nation they intend to destroy from inside-out.

"History" is not an actor with a point of view and a direction.

If you've studied Hegel, from whom all progressives flow, you are convinced that history is the result of the perpetual evolution of the universe towards its ideal, which is to become a mirror image of (the impersonal) God. The constant repositioning of the dialectic is the process by which this occurs, which is exactly what the left does on a continuous basis.

And one more thing. When history gets stuck in the mud and needs a push, The (no, not Holy) Spirit brings to the fore a World-Historical Person, whose function is to kickstart history back to its correct evolutionary speed. Hegel designed this idea essentially to explain how Napoleon Bonaparte was a good guy who was going to make the world a better place, even if it took a few million dead people to do it. In later history, that would become the rationalization for Hitler, for Lenin and Stalin, for Mao, for Che. And while it hasn't been part of the political dialogue (because the average LIV wouldn't know Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel from Chuck Hagel from Idora Hegel), you know that's what the cognoscenti thought Barack Obama was, which is why his detachment and lack of success diverges so from their hopes for his "transformation" of history.

I still don’t understand why we didn’t demand that Europe handle Bosnia.
