I never thought someone could make Jimmy Carter look good.

The “strategy” is quite clear...

The strategy is to avoid attacking his fellow islamic/satanic terrorists and covertly support satan’s caliphate.

The Pentagon has a number of strategies ready to implement, but Obama won’t pull the trigger on any of them.

The strategy is simple.

It’s better people believe you’re an incompetent boob than a collaborator.

With incompetence there is only a political price to pay, with collaboration you pay with your life.

No plan is required because unilaterally the time for action passed two years ago.

The course now is reaction and the situation is much to fluid for rection other than at the margins. That action at the margins is to plink at attacking ISIL armour or guns or command.

The partition of Iraq and Syria is fiat accompli. The world can only watch to see how it develops. My belief is that once the surge is over, cooler heads will begin to react to the excess.

History is a process, not an event

The last most horrible President we had was Carter and after he lost to Reagan, I sighed in relief knowing that we would never see another one like him.

I took comfort in that idea from January 20th 1981 until January 20th 2009.

When Obama was sworn in I feared for America and the West, knowing that this stuffed shirt is a nothing with no experience and a lot of self-confidence based on being a Community Organizer.

I feared for the worst and the sum of all those fears are being realized like a very bad dream.

Many folks now realize (it took 6 years???) that he is worse than anybody could have predicted.

Even though I stood vehemently against him, I still wanted him to succeed and be a good President and world leader.

He is the sum of all nothingness, inabilities and ineptitude.

My Leftist froends all knee-jerk re-flexed at me that I was a “Racist” but that is not true. I am and have been against a rudderless so-called leader who is leading us to ruin.
How is it that Impeachment proceedings were conducted against Clinton for lying about Lewinsky and Obama is untouched thus far?

Carter was obviously unprepared to be President. In 1976, that was a novelty.

It's disturbing that now, unpreparedness is regarded as an extra-special qualification.

You forgot pay back the white man and destroy the U.S. for his puppetmaster, Soros, then collect his fee and flee the U.S. to live in a Muslim country.

Excellent point.

But it is a limited strategy - it only applies to Iraq, Syria, Libya, Egypt, Turkey, Afghanistsn, Iran and Greater Gaza AKA Israel.

If you are right, and you are, then Obama has to be viewed as quite successful. His only real setback has been in Egypt where the people finally woke up and tossed out Morsi and The Muslim Brotherhood. And, of course, the Gaza Project is not going well. But everywhere else there is progress. More chaos. More territory controlled by the Jiadists. And Iran inching closer and closer to having a long range nuclear capability.

It all gets back to obamatollah’s core & where he places his loyalty & allegiance.

When he bowed AND knelt in subservience to the saudi/islamic king, he publically demonstrated “he will stand with the muzzies when the winds of change blow”.

All his policies and actions come directly from his core.

Those who ascribe to his “incompetence” simply miss the core truth that explains all of his treasonous acts.

The author touched on the real issue:

Perhaps the political advisors in the White House have yet to calculate how to use this threat to influence the November elections or to at the very least blame Congress for it.

This situation is more complex than Ferguson, so it will take them longer to figure out how to spin it against Congressional Republicans.

“The analogy we use around here sometimes, and I think is accurate, is if a jayvee team puts on Lakers uniforms that doesn’t make them Kobe Bryant. I think there is a distinction between the capacity and reach of a bin Laden and a network that is actively planning major terrorist plots against the homeland versus jihadists who are engaged in various local power struggles and disputes, often sectarian.”

Just because O’bastard put on a suit like President G. W. Bush, doesn’t mean he has the clanging set of balls that would deal with the problem!

Barry is simply telling another lie (for him it’s like breathing). He has a strategy; it’s called treason.

In the hall boys and girls away from the windows.

Line up in 2 rows, duck and cover facing the wall boys and girls.

Make sure you say in your assigned places boys and girls it’s easier to identify your body.

Ah yes those were good times.

Then-pres Carter went to Mexico on an official trip-—he joked his staff all got “Montezuma’s Revenge.” Mexico threw him out—cancelled all his scheduled appearances.

Same impact when Mexican president Nieto went to California—declaring it “the other Mexico.” What with swarms of illegal Central Americans and Mexicans pouring over the southern border, Americans greeted Nieto’s declaration with horror and apprehension.

After Obama’s presser reinforced our weakness, announcing we he had no strategy on ISIS——Susan Rice was seen at Staples buying a case of white-out to redo her resume.

UN Amb Samantha Powers was in the UN bar chug-a-lugging straight bourbon.
