This is Obama's Last Foreign Policy Chance

The failure of Obama or Biden to show up in Paris made clear that most of the president’s team can’t be trusted to conduct U.S national security policy and must be replaced—at once.

Here’s why America’s failure to be represented at the Paris unity march was so profoundly disturbing. It wasn’t just because President Obama’s or Vice President Biden’s absence was a horrendous gaffe. More than this, it demonstrated beyond argument that the Obama team lacks the basic instincts and judgment necessary to conduct U.S. national security policy in the next two years. It’s simply too dangerous to let Mr. Obama continue as is—with his current team and his way of making decisions. America, its allies, and friends could be heading into one of the most dangerous periods since the height of the Cold War

I know, I know...it’s Sorcha Faal...grain of salt required. But did anyone read their latest offering about the Paris Chief of Police committing “suicide” supposedly over the Paris massacre? Sorcha Faal claim he was preparing an arrest for Obummer and assorted U.S. heads of staff for murder, claiming info retrieved from one of the jihadists had pertinent info linking said Obummer and others in the CIA of instigating the crime. They claimed U.S.heads of state were afraid to come to Paris in case of said arrest, and the Chief of Police conveniently was “suicide” with one shot to the head. Oh, if only!!!

One would think Obama’s foreign and domestic policies are totally inexplicable and unhinged. His policy makes no sense unless one looks at it with the following supposition.

Obama is a committed Marxist Muslim sympathizer. If one accepts this premise, his policies are 100% logical.

[libstripper]

Exactly. Indeed, that's why his policies have mostly been a resounding success, from his standpoint.

Rush went on for quite a while about the thread Leslie Gelb article (former NY Times correspondent and Council on Foreign Relations big shot)...

As I have frequently opined, Arpaio’s “Universe Shattering” revelations” can most likely succeed when DEMOCRATS conclude that Barry is a danger to national security and in this article we clearly see that at last every single member of Barry’s team is seen as incompetent and even Barry himself is denounced as intimately “the problem” and in need of extreme close supervision by the usual trusted bipartisan national security establishment elders
named by Gelb including, of course, Henry the K, should he still be able to fog a mirror by the time I finish typing this!

The way things have been these last couple of decades, and especially these last eight years, makes me look at the demonrats as being complicit in tearing down America and America military power, so they are enamored by obama's efforts to date.

If they, the demonrats, are upset at obama and his team, it would be for the "optics" error of missing an event that would have further cemented his stature as a great world leader and/or would have given them ammo to fight against the contrarian conservative and TEA party voices.

Yes, they lost record numbers of seats in Congress, but do you really believe a party that has presided over decimating the American military's leadership and squandering victories in Iraq and elsewhere is unhappy with obama?

I don't. Not really. Instead, I wonder more about what might be behind Barry, that set him in place and set these events in motion that now have US swirling around history's drain.

I worry more about how Proverbs 16:18 and other scriptural warnings will have their way with US in large part thanks to him and those who put him in place.

I just hope that Arpaio's "Universe Shattering" revelations are a part of re-balancing our spin.

Thanks for the link to Rush. I posted a link to Gelb’s Wikipedia entry so everybody could see what a liberal foreign policy establishment guru he has been all of his career. If Obola is losing those people, he’s also in danger of losing many of the DemonCraps in Congress, meaning it might be possible to impeach him and remove Him.
