“But Bammer (or Rahm, or Axelrod, or whoever may be Zero’s puppet master) is floating this fog of ‘concern’ to cover Bammer’s dithering tracks of indecision and political calculation.”
You get no arguments here!
I wish someone would ask our dear leader, exactly what piece of information, or what kind of planetary alignement is he waiting for that would magically put him out of his Hamletian misery.
Well put! Personally, I think he's looking for the arrow that points to Mecca, and he's found it in embracing the Taliban, if the report yesterday is true that he wants a "negotiated settlement" and "minimum security."
He's just not sure what our reaction will be when he announces it, so he'll leak his soliloquy out in little bits out of the side of his mouth, pretending that he is musing and deciding. I think he was decided all along and knew exactly where this was leading.
