Wow! Andrea Mitchell Accuses Obama Of 'Bungling' Syria
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 09/04/2013 5:11:27 AM PDT by governsleastgovernsbest

Well, there was a Blue Moon just last month, so maybe the time was right for some rare criticism of President Obama by Andrea Mitchell.

Mitchell didn't hold back on today's Morning Joe, accusing the President of "bungling," being "ambivalent," and of undercutting his Secretary of State and Vice-President. For good measure, Mitchell suggested that in his heart of hearts, fellow panelist and former Obama spox Robert Gibbs agreed with her acidulous assessment.

Coming to the truth toooooo late. He has 3 1/2 more years to completely destroy this once great country. I am surprised none of the Media sycophants have tried to blame this mess on GWB!

Actually what she is saying is she wants an attack sooner. Neither her nor Obamazuma’s approach is smart.

They want to have air cover on why they weren’t tougher on El Bozo
all along.

This way they can sit back and say , it’s all the politicians fault.

Valerie just checked my offshore holdings and issued the "Obama
Doctrine:" the bombing mission must protect my image. Any
resulting damage---mitigated by war profiteering---is an
acceptable trade-off.

BACKGROUND MUSIC---"That Old Black Magic Has Me In Its Spell"

" This'll get done fast---I gotta get back to golf."

"A few measly bombs will pump-up all of our resumes,
especially Benghazi screw-ups Susan Rice, candidate Hillary...
and that pontificating jerk, Kerry. "

"And at $50 billion per day for the incursion, all who support me,
Republican and Democrat, will get a cut. Should be in the
neighborhood of a few $hundred million each. "

"War-profiteering is big bucks. Just ask the 'bombs-away neocons."
That damn *itch Michelle's nagging me for new diamonds and a
pricey Vineyard house."

Journalists sometimes “punish” presidents for not doing what they want. They withhold their adoration in the hopes of changing policy because they see themselves as Kingmakers. “We are solely responsible for you being in office and you need to listen to us....sometimes...if it is OK.....please....thank you”.

Andrea envisions Obama calling a cabinet meeting to discuss the Andrea problem. “What can we do to get her back? I can’t live with out her. Should I resign?”.
He’ll call her and schmooze her then do whatever he wants anyway. She’ll take it and like it.

The first anniversary of Benghazi is one week from today. This whole Syria thing, happening now, is just a sleazey “wag the dog” tactic.

Yeah, there were some feelings hurt when they found out their little god had been rummaging through their e-mails and computer files.
But they had their knee-pads back on before the week was out and were fellating the Boss, falling in love again with the totalitarian ideal.
