“Uncle Joe” had had his way in dealing with Roosevelt and Truman, why would Marshall think he could get somewhere?

[ClearCase_guy]

Marshall probably (and rightly) considered himself smarter than either FDR or Truman. Perhaps he felt he could achieve what they could not. However, it sounds like Marshall was also smart enough to eventually realize that this was not so.

One problem with Obama is that he thinks he is smarter than everyone else and that he can do anything -- and despite mounds of evidence to the contrary, he remains unshakeable in these beliefs.

America was a tool for the Russians—We were used and set up....like in everything before and after WWII. Obama is the culmination of their plans......long term.........just like the Chinese......—http://reformed-theology.org/html/issue05/acheson.htm
