President Obama’s foreign policy is based on fantasy
Washington Post ^ | Mar 2, 2014 | WaPo Editorial Board

Posted on 03/03/2014 1:32:22 PM PST by LeoWindhorse

FOR FIVE YEARS, President Obama has led a foreign policy based more on how he thinks the world should operate than on reality. It was a world in which “the tide of war is receding” and the United States could, without much risk, radically reduce the size of its armed forces.

A typical learning curve for the Post and the American left in general; it takes years and endless repetition for them to grasp the simplest and most obvious realities.

The Washington Post has looked at the world through the eyes of the Democrat party. They didn’t like that mean old cowboy Bush and those evil Republicans. The Democrats elected Obama President.....twice. This mess falls on the Democrat party. They didn’t care that Obama was inexperienced and incompetent and could never be a good leader or manager. He could win the Presidential race, and that’s all they cared about. The Editorial Board of The Washington Post should go and hang themselves.

His domestic policies are based on insane liberal fantasies.

Like his unaffordable care act, minimum wage wet dreams, and plans to tax the wage earners into poverty to share the wealth with the non producers.

"Actually, he’s who the communists/socialists have been waiting and planning for. "

More like the one that the communists and soros have been training to be inserted here.

It’s based on the fact that America causes harm and needs to be chopped down to size.

"... FOR FIVE YEARS, President Obama has led a foreign policy based more on how he thinks the world should operate than on reality."

But I just read an opinion column in the New York Times that claimed Obama's foreign policy has been a success because his expectations are based on reality, not how he thinks the world should operate.
