Our Supreme Leader is a Supreme Fool
Powerline ^ | March 20, 2015 | Scott Johnson

Posted on 03/21/2015 8:46:12 AM PDT by 2ndDivisionVet

I know that Barack Obama fancies himself a grand strategist the likes of which the world has never seen. (Okay, that may be true, but not in the way he thinks.) In an important essay last month at Mosaic, Michael Doran drew a revealing portrait of “Obama’s secret Iran agenda” that cast light on dark corners.

If you want to understand Obama’s strategery, Doran’s essay is the place to go. Today Steve Hayes adds a timely update in his Weekly Standard editorial “Obama’s Iran agenda.”

Whatever the sophisticated thinking behind it, Obama’s strategy looks like appeasement. It certainly has a lot in common with it. Indeed, we seem to have entered the tertiary stage of appeasement, in which wishful thinking and self-deception are the dominant characteristics.

To take one example, I give you President Obama’s annual statement on Nowruz, the Persian new year. The Wall Street Journal has posted the text of Obama’s statement here. The White House has posted the video below of Obama reading the statement. It is addressed to “the people and the leaders of Iran.”

(VIDEO-AT-LINK)

In his statement Obama says: “My message to you—the people of Iran—is that, together, we have to speak up for the future we seek.” Obama addresses the people of Iran as though they are free to speak their minds....

He’s a damned supreme fool.

He’s not just a fool but he’s also evil.

You cannot discuss Obama without including Valerie Jarrett.

He is merely the face.

He's no fool and it's far, far more than appeasement.

At this point I can come to no other conclusion than he's all in with the mooselimbs.

He wants to see Israel destroyed and he wants Iran to have nukes.

Ask yourself...if Israel gets in a war would the US send military resupplies?

It’s going to be fun to see his face when every one of his actions get removed a fool never learns.

He's not alone

He's surrounded himself with like minded people and they are all in this together .... remember that when we single him out for criticism

Calling him a leader is like calling jello, concrete.

People say he’s childish, a fool, an idiot...

He is none of that...People are looking at it from the view of what they would think of doing...

Obama is a cold, calculating Muslim doing exactly what he set out to do. He has been extremely clever in the way he has gone about it...He has insulated himself with his minions in the White House and our Congress has become so afraid of him that they refuse to do anything...

Unless something is done, we are toast...

I think he’s smart, and a fool. He is dedicated to a plan to destroy America and is hell-bent on doing what he can to make that happen.

I, for one, am waiting to pass judgement on Obama until I see how he does on his March Madness bracket

Yeah.....Obama is crazy.

Crazy like a skunk! A rabid skunk! A rabid skunk full of meth! A rabid skunk full of meth that got knocked on the noggin by a falling oak tree. A rabid skunk full of meth that got knocked on the noggin by a falling oak tree while reading Camus. That special kind of crazy.

I agree with you except for the reference to Camus. The only thing that Obama reads is a teleprompter.
