Krauthammers Take: The President Doesnt Even Know His Own Mind By NRO Staff September 3, 2014
We thought a week ago [President Obama] didnt have a strategy, says Charles Krauthammer. Now we know that he doesnt even have an objective. That is Dr. Ks takeaway from the presidents morning press conference, at which the president both pledged to defeat the Islamic State and suggested hed be fine with degrading it to where it was merely manageable.
He doesnt know if [his objective] is to destroy or containment, Krauthammer said.

Its not that owebama won’t make up his mind - he CAN’T make up his mind.
Without a clear strategy the best men, equipment, and tactics cannot hope to prevail.
We are hamstrung.
Well, he could defeat them,
or he could manage them,
or he could help them conquer Israel.
One of those things ...
Sorry, Doc...I think he knows his own mind perfectly well.
He may be hiding it from America in large parting in this, but it has been abundantly clear from the get go. He means for Americas’s position, power, influence, capabilities, moral position, and ability to make a difference with its traditional values position to be as absolutely reduced and negated as possible, both at home and abroad.
If his inaction, dithering, failures to stand or lead has that impact, then that is precisely what he will do as long as he can possibly do o.
He is a far left ideologue who believes America to be the problem...and has felt that way the entire time.
Obama is often late or confused when getting his orders from her.
I remember 2008: an OLoser speech was designed
to resonate with conservatives and the commies.
The same strategy is falling flat in 2014,
but never put anything past the American
voter.
Krauthammer still feels constrained by the boundaries of “respectable” opinion. It is not respectable yet to say that “Obama” is a Muslim terrorist.
Mind? What mind? Puppets don't have a mind!
Obama is heavily invested in the Muslim World..he has always said that he would stand with the Muslim world when things got bad..he doesn’t want to say anything that will insult them, because he is one of them

Very well put. You nailed it perfectly.
Krauthammer and others know it but haven’t the guts to say it.
The Joint Chiefs need to depose him for his inability to lead. Set up a Junta until elections can be held.
He acts like he is in damage control mode...hoping to get outta Dodge before more shit hits the fan
Obama is still in campaign mode imo. I think that it is the only thing that he knows how to do.
The sad part is that many Americans being the patriots that they are, will support their country and fall in behind the POTUS when he decides to wag the dog.
‘The President Doesnt Even Know His Own islamist Mind
Fixed it.
Jeff, you provide a very concise and accurate analysis, as always.
President Davis has purged everyone from the military who would even think of doing such a thing.
