Glib: “Isis? Meh. A ‘JV’ team.”

Excellent and very serious essay (column) by Dr. Sowell.
I’ll wager this title was NOT his.

[jazusamo]

I agree, FRiend.

[stephenjohnbanker]

” We will be lucky to get through the remainder of President Obama’s term in office without a major catastrophe, from which we may or may not recover. “

Sowell has been working up to this, and he finally said it.

He is also correct.

[jazusamo]

Well said, I believe he’s correct also.

[onyx]

Yep and he’s right!

There is always a price to be paid for ignorance and stupidity. The country is about to start paying for its folly in terms of dealing with the mess that Obama has created and the “legacy” of destruction that he will leave behind in his wake.

The real costs of electing Obama are only now beginning to be realized. Election have consequences as they say.

I think we would recover from our enemies darts. However, Im pretty sure we’d not recover from the ‘Im from the govt and here to help’ types that insist on cleaning up their mess blamed on someone(s) else.

Today, when people can graduate from even our most prestigious colleges and universities utterly ignorant of history, many people — even in high places — have no idea how close the Western democracies came to losing World War II.

If not for some of Hitler's megalomania induced strategic blunders the war could have turned out much differently.

[jazusamo]

Absolutely...It’s a good thing for the allies Hitler didn’t let his more than capable generals run the war.

once they get hands on a nuke it is all over, expect a explosion in any Capitol in Europe or probably NY here.

” We will be lucky to get through the remainder of President Obama’s term in office without a major catastrophe, from which we may or may not recover.”

I remember (and quite nervously) Sowell wrote that Obama’s term would be “catastrophic” just before or right after he was elected in 2008.

[stephenjohnbanker]

Yes he did. But “catastrophic” is not as bad as “may not survive”

[Rummyfan]

Obama seems quite content to lead us into a Dark Ages that will last a thousand years.

[Vigilanteman]

It was painfully ironic to hear Ms. Rice tell us that the danger we face today is not as serious as the dangers we faced in World War II.

Yep. FDR had plenty of faults, but at least he wasn't a damnable Nazi.
