LOL: Forget Obamacare, Tina Brown Says Obama's Legacy Will Be His 'Smart' Handling of Iran and Syria
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

How shambolic of a smoking ruin is the Obama presidency? When Tina Brown surveys the wreckage, the best—the best!—thing she sees, the thing she believes will be Barack Obama's shining legacy, is his handling of Iran and Syria, which she declares to be "smart," and of course, "nuanced."

The Obamacare catastrophe? Not to worry. On today's Morning Joe, Brown assured us that those problems are "transient." No, look over here, at President Obama's masterful handling of foreign policy! Yes, years from now, when the minor hiccups of the Obamacare rollout will be long forgotten, people will still be marvelling at how well Barack Obama dealt with Iran and Syria.

Obama will probably be remembered for setting up 5 nations to wipe out Israel and all five will be destroyed by Israel.

Puleez....Putin is the negotiator...not us. I’m sure Kerry sits there like a bump on a log. He’s a figurehead. Obama had nothing to lose hiring this boot licker.

Syria? Isn't that the country that Obama was lining up to bomb the government in support of al Qaeda until Putin stepped in? Yeah, "smart" handling there.

Obama's Legacy Will Be His 'Smart' Handling of Iran and Syria

The Islamic history books that will be in our classrooms alongside the Islamic arithmetic books and the Koran will extol his "smart handling" of Iran and Syria.

Syria, where Obama resolved the brutal civil war?

Iran, where Obama halted their nuclear program?

Somehow, I think we will find out how smart his actions were by 2016, if not sooner.

I’m not laughing.

I had the misfortune to listen to the lamestream while traveling. They are gushing over the “brilliant” B0 diplomatic successes. The narrative becomes popular opinion.

It will not surprise me if the real disasters are not realized until after the next presidential election.

It’s definitely a tough choice between ditzes, what with Tina Brown and Meghan McCain.

There are reasons Tina Brown always failed in her publcations. Leaving Daily Beast in a month and it will die just like Newsweek and her previous efforts.
