You can’t even make this up about MSNBC and their hosts.
Clausewitz did now write “Art of War”.
Yup.....he’s Forrest Gump.
Clausewitz did not write “Art of War”.
Sometimes, Joe, being clueless isn't a strategy, it's just being clueless.
Obviously, then, what we have is a Carney who feigns wisdom and mesmerizes suckers like Scarborough.
More like Chauncey Gardiner.
Lol, love Chance. I would trust him more than Obama.
LOL!
Sub Tszu was particular in having a strategy and tactics to beat the enemy
