A very easy way to get a pass for these things is to PLAY at being naive or stupid. IMHO oBummer is neither and this is a very carefully played out plan in order to strategically weaken our sole ally in the middle-east and thereby start the long anticipated war against Israel.
I personally think he's book smart, shrewd and devious but way over his head. He's read all the seceret documents, probably leaked a few, has hatred written all over his face and been in Wright's church for way too long for him to change his stripes. Maybe I'm wrong, maybe he is "common sense" smart but I just don't see him or have heard much common sense come from him. Then again he's the kind of kid I would have loved to have slgged in High School, heh but I didn't fight, just a pipe dream. I'd rather believe( probably somewhat true, and all the alphabet soup companies have all their own agendas so whatever he's reading and then acting on looks bassackward, as to you and so many it's planned) the people around him are making him dance but it doesn't matter whether you or i are right in this, the damage is done, is being done daily and in rapid fire succesion so much so that it is indeed becoming so biblically "prophetic" that I wake up, turn on the TV and wonder what happened overnight that just blew up, who was killed, what country did what; argh how to explain?
Maybe this analogy, for years and years there's been no time limit really on the chess board of international( and national) dealings. Presently, events are moving so rapidly in a vortex of entropy one cannot even see the color of the chess pieces as our world and our country is sucked into the demonic fingers of a huge tornado with a foundation of years and years of dirty dealings. Best I can do.
No sense talking as to whether the guy is smart, more to the point would be what he is doing with his intelligence and why. This guy is either deeply disturbed or just plain rotten to the core. More to the point is how long does America have and can anyone but the true emerging false prophet make the dirty tornado "look" clean and all the chess pieces "seem" as if there will be more than 1260 days of peace sometime soon before the real "smart evil" guy takes over the whole game( NOT saying Obama is THAT smart)comes riding into a newly built Jewish Temple on a pig; hasn't been built yet; but it'll happen. I just can't see him being smart; devious, yes, full of crap, yes, book smart, yes, but what he is doing is not even shrowding his moves anymore; everyone in the world can see him for who he is, it's now up to dummies like me and a lot of the rest of us to try and figure how to stop it,or maybe repair a little shred here and there or if it is indeed harpazo time.
