Politico Magazine editor Michael Hirsh asked on Monday whether the Obama administration was full of a "team of bumblers" on the foreign policy and national security sides.
At the heart of the criticism is the charge that the Obama White House is too insular and often doesn't have a strategy.
According to House Armed Services Committee staffers who spoke to Hirsh, there is often a lack of coordination among the White House, Capitol Hill, and the Pentagon. And the general feeling is that the administration's National Security Council, which has beefed up to 300 members from 50, is reacting to a series of crises, rather than being proactive with a coherent strategy.
"There is a sense that the NSC is run a little like beehive ball soccer, where everyone storms to wherever the ball is moving around the field," one former administration official said.

Quick suggestion ... No!
Might have to wait up to a year on that... but check with Emeril or Paul Prudhomme .... Those Louisiana French chefs know all about shellfish purge cycles, I don’t.
On ugly second thought, we could accidentally kill every ocean arthropod (and pelecypod!) from Maine to Barbados... Ewwww .
Yeah, back to the drawing board.
