David Axelrod Gives Obama, Not Putin, Credit For Assad Turning Over Chemical Weapons

Here's your non-shocker of the day. Former Obama campaign adviser David Axelrod is giving President Obama, not Russian President Putin, credit for Syrian President Assad's agreement to turn over chemical weapons.


If POTUS hadn't threatened credible military response, does anyone believe Russia and Syria would be coming forward now? No time to falter. — David Axelrod (@davidaxelrod) September 10, 2013

President Obama is still scheduled to make his case for a "military attack" on Syria tonight from the White House, but with the news breaking this morning the Russians and Syrians have reached a deal, you can bet his speech will be all about how his threats of a tiny, very small attack led to diplomacy.

Here’s a clue for you, Mr. Axleshaft, NOTHING’S been turned over yet. It remains to be seen whether ANYTHING will be turned over.

Until then, STFU.

FAX to all alphabet networks. This was Obama’s idea from the start and everything leading up to it was just to push Syria to this point.

Every anti-American journalist will carry his water to make it appear the dark lord is brilliant.

Obama has been told to go sit at the kid’s table.

Taking the world to the brink of a military crisis and by not pushing the nuke button he can call himself the peacemaker, worthy of his Nobel Peace Prize. I call that Pyongyang-style!!! Just wait til he gets the Kim Jong-il hairstyle.

Yes, Obama is a genius. And Kerry, too. Cutting edge strategists the both of them, sheered lightening on their feet, as Kerry just proved. /s

As one columnist put it, “SLAPSTICK”. These two clown acts got bounced and pounced upon, by a couple of thugs.

Apparently, thugs are the only ones who can in any way manage or check the Chief of BS.

Certainly Boehner hasn’t the daring to cross the
CofBS.

you bet.. when this thing is all said and done, the MSM “story” will be that it was all due to brilliant Chess moves on behalf of Obama... that he saw so far ahead of each move that he knew the whole thing would shake out the way it did...

meanwhile, back in the real world... I don’t see this thing from Russia, as anything more than a jab at Obama...and Assad might turn over a few canisters, and the American media will gush over the whole thing... Wow !!! just look what cool heads and diplomacy can do !!!!!

Nothing will be resolved from this .... absolutely nothing.. however I am glad that if the zero Prez doesn’t shoot any missiles “across the bow”.. that is a good thing, because I am sure he would screw that up... badly...

"That’s what commies do they rewrite history."

True that.
However in the internet/Google age rewriting history is getting very difficult. Here in the USA no one believe our "free" press any longer. Drudge gets billions of hits a year. Plus the Brit press has a large presence here and DOES NOT LIE, so the truth can be had with a few clicks of the mouse.

Hillary too.

Yes, Obama got them to surrender on this by threatening attack then backpeddling and announcing that he needed congress to give him their approval before he could decide what he should really do, after even England rejected him.

Kerry and Obama's indecision and blaming others obviously had Assad wetting his pants .

You are correct but unfortunately EVERYONE with sway in the DNC is now a communist hiding behind the Progressive label and the Progressives are hard at work converting the GOP.

Half of this country is diametrically opposed to the founding of this country and we on the right are too willing to accept we have been conquered without a shot being fired.

Assad will not turn over his chemical weapons! How gullible can Americans be to buy this crap (and you know they will). There’ll be a hand shake for the cameras, some canisters shown, and Assad will continue committing what Kerry calls an ‘atrocity’.
This is one of the first times I have seen a massive foreign policy failure packaged effectively as a victory.
Obama drew a dumbass red line, and failed to back it up because he was about to be humiliated on the votes.
He looks like a hero in America.
We all look like paper tigers overseas.

Today in Pictures: Barry Obomba gives a toast to victory against the homophobic Russians. He's drinking the "Pelosi Whitey Wine Zinfandel."

I hate to say it, but Axeldork is right. The Kenyan will get all the credit.

His suckazz media now have their talking points and before the 6PM News, adulation about Obomber's great diplomatic victory will be deafening. He will cement it by spiking the ball and doing a victory lap in his speech tonight. The media will cheer him on even louder tomorrow.

Take it to the bank. Try not to get a stroke...

So.

Let's give Obama another PEACE prize. A second Nobel just doesn't cut it, it has to be an ‘All Universe’ Peace Prize.

Only teh Won deserves it.
