Barack Obama: World Class Screw-up. Or worse

screw up obama

Where to begin?

Barack Obama has screwed up Iraq so badly it's hard to explain it. Today the US maintains military bases in Japan and Korea and Germany. It turned out to be a very good thing for the world. Obama was so bent on getting out of Iraq that he lost it. Obama's fertilizer is growing a brand spanking new terrorist army. Iraq is descending into an apocalypse complete with inhuman atrocities courtesy of ISIS and Obama is playing golf. Obama has a SWAT Team protecting him during his rounds on the highly dangerous Martha's Vineyard links.

The Obama apologista are out in force and it's breathtaking to behold.

Politico tries to sell us the shiny new "Obama doctrine":

“When we face a situation like we do on that mountain — with innocent people facing the prospect of violence on a horrific scale, when we have a mandate to help — in this case, a request from the Iraqi government — and when we have the unique capabilities to help avert a massacre, then I believe the United States of America cannot turn a blind eye,” the president said.

Oh really? Back in 2007 genocide was fine with Obama:

Obama says don't stay in Iraq over genocide

Democratic presidential hopeful Barack Obama said Thursday the United States cannot use its military to solve humanitarian problems and that preventing a potential genocide in Iraq isn’t a good enough reason to keep U.S. forces there.

Time magazine fall all over itself muttering something about how Obama has "evolved."

In his 2007 comments about genocide, Obama at least seemed to imply that, because the U.S. can’t prevent slaughter everywhere, it shouldn’t take humanitarian action anywhere. But as President he has adopted a different point, first in Libya and now in Iraq: Just because we intervene in some places doesn’t mean we have to intervene everywhere.

Pathetic. Utterly pathetic. He was such a smartass, such a God Damn know-it-all before he was elected. Not he's morphed into a cheap imitation of George Bush (absent a moral compass) and the left loves him for it.

John McCain says the pinprick strikes Obama has ordered are worse than nothing at all:

“Barack Obama: World Class Screw-up. Or worse”

Since his stated goal is to “fundamentally transform the United States of America” (ie, destroy the America we know and love), what exactly is he “screwing up”? He’s doing a pretty darn good job of it.

If screwing up were an Olympic event, Obama would have more gold medals than Michael Phelps - to add to his Nobel Prize, his two Grammy Awards, his Image Award, and who knows what else.

Just heard an interesting comment on the Special Report panel. Said that perhaps Obama deliberately held up going after ISIS, to take out a disagreeable Iraq government.

Rev. Manning is right about Obama having everything he needed to succeed. He failed.

We lose our right to bear arms. That will happen here in the USA.

Screwing up foreign policy is dangerous but when the results are intended then it is more than merely dangerous. We elected a foreign Moslem to our Presidency. A Mohammedan will fulfill Moslem needs and desires before any other consideration. If he pinpricks the saracen horde in Iraq it is because he feared loss of his Democrat base and that would be a setback for the Caliphate.

Yes, folks voted for him to fundamentally transform America into a third-world dictatorship. This makes them happy, fewer jobs, less resources shared with more people, what’s not to like?

There is no “screw up”. Everything Clown Prince nobama does is intentional. Many have difficulty accepting they elected an anti-American traitor.

Not without one hell of a fight. I think that anything like that will start CWII, which is the only thing that will settle all this crap.
