Krauthammer On Obama's Foreign Policy: 'The Strategy Is To Do Absolutely Nothing' August 28

Charles Krauthammer ripped President Obama's foreign policy Thursday on "Special Report with Bret Baier," blasting the president for holding a news conference at which he said, "we don't have a strategy yet" for dealing with ISIS in Syria.

"The president of the United States, in the middle of a real crisis, a few days after the beheading of an American...gets in front of the world and says, I don't have a strategy," the syndicated columnist and Fox News contributor said. "If that is true, don't say anything. Why do you announce you don't have a strategy?"

We don't have a strategy because the president hasn't chosen one. Plenty of planning is done, being done, and can be refined. A coalition of like minded nations can train and assist the Free Syrian Army to go after ISIS. Further support to all of the Kurds can be provided. Multi national air strikes can prevent ISIS from massing for attacks. Turkey can be forced to close its borders to people traveling to Syria to fight for ISIS. Right now, nations are providing ammunition for the Kurds. The desire to work together is there in many countries. Yet the president has no strategy.

“If that is true, don’t say anything. Why do you announce you don’t have a strategy?”..........

Finally, odumbo tells the truth and catches hell for it. (sarc)

While I have no doubt that odumbo told THE TRUTH, he is also telling his friends in ISIS to “go for it” while the opportunity is there. Under odumbo, the U.S. will sit back and let the muzzies take back what all our troops fought and DIED for and there is no way he plans to step in to stop them. Talk about a traitor...........
