Laz, when Obama made his little mis-que with the Russian leader to pass on his “message” to Putin, it was clear that he was telegraphing to them that he could work with them behind the scenes and be more “flexible.”
He clearly said as much because he felt he could do things without worrying about an election cycle.
It is clear to me that the entire Arab Spring and the Libya fiasco was all part of a plan to funnel arms to tour enemies, the terrorists themselves and I am sure Obama thought he could work that deal with the Russians.
but the Russians played him for the fool he was...and they bent him over and reamed him his last four years.
But he wanted to to try and work with them and collaborate...they just decided it was better for them to take avantage of his weakness...and they cettainly have.
either way...he facilitated the Russians becoming stronger and ourselves becoming weaker in the area.
My point is that the MSM and many Americans are looking at relatively minor things that people like Flynn did, and they ignore the obvious telegraphing of a sitting President to work against America’s best interest.
That’s what I mean with this post...and I stand b it.
Jeff, this post needs a bump today. Great overview of the Russia-Obama connection re: “flexibility”.
