Let me remind everyone of what we all knew going into this sorry excuse for an administration: domestic policy was considered 0bama's people's major emphasis. Given their performance in that arena I cannot misuse the word "strength." But that means - no pretense here, you all knew this perfectly well - that foreign policy, especially foreign policy incorporating the military, was a signal weakness by comparison.

Consider just how bad that really turned out to be. The National Security Advisor terms this gaggle of fools a Politburo, and he's supposed to be on their side. Our military efforts in Afghanistan and Iraq are in the hands of Chicago ward-heelers and political hacks that make Robert McNamara look like Patton. The Commander in Chief is a feckless academic fool who wants the whole thing to disappear at the end of Fall Term so he can get back to preening as the figurehead for the Titanic.

It's what happens when celebrity trumps competence as a criterion of office. To be perfectly honest, a cardboard cutout could do the same job and cost us a whole lot less.

I am bumping this because it is important. I cannot believe more people haven’t responded to this.

THIS STORY AND THE BOOK IS A BIG DEAL.
