For nearly five years, this column has described the Obama Doctrine with nine words: Embolden our enemies. Undermine our friends. Diminish our country.
Virtually everything President Obama has done since coming to office falls into one or more of those categories. He promised to fundamentally transform America, and he is doing so with a vengeance by adhering to policies that conform to those nine words.

Now, this is hardly the first time President Obama has tried to shift the blame for his myriad failures onto others. But it is especially important in this instance that he not be allowed to get away with it because we have plenty of reason to believe that the predictable – and predicted – repercussions of the Obama Doctrine are about to come due, big time. Worse yet, the associated costs are likely to be sufficiently high, in both blood and treasure, that Team Obama must not be permitted yet again to obscure or deflect its responsibility.
