Barack Obama: brilliant military strategist. Joe Scarborough says Obama’s admission that US has no strategy is “straight of the Art of War.” Ping to Today show list.

If he hadn’t been blatantly wrong on every single issue in the middle east, I might accept this argument, but Obama is the farthest thing from a military strategy expert. His every discussion goes against historical precedent for effective foreign relations and war. Naming withdrawal dates. Showing weakness. Siding with extremists over allies.

He’s not clever, he’s dangerous.

Didn’t know Scarborough was also a comedian.

It is actually quite hilarious watching apologists for this fool in DC go into contortions.

I just watched 1984 again the other day. We are living it now.

he;s an idiot who wants to cozy up to the communist siting next to him.
I have tried to watch that show a couple of times and cannot stomach it more than 5 minutes. They’re all nuts and way off this earth

There is one thing to play weak when you are strong, but 0bama is playing possum - in the middle of the road.

"According to Scarborough, speaking on today's Morning Joe, President Obama's "no strategy" statement was "straight out of The Art of War where when you were weak, you make your enemies think you were strong. When you were strong, you make your enemies think you were weak."

Or he could be weak, and make our enemies think we are weak. Somtimes the simplest explanation is the correct one.

It's a stretch to believe that there is anyone inside the White House fence who doesn't associate Sun Tzu with spicy takeout chicken.

Sun Tzu's "The Art of War"?

Sounds more like something out of "The Tao of Pooh"...

How does the downsizing of the U.S. Military fit into this? Stronger but smaller?

So what was your strategy (man in the tan suit) when you pulled ALL our troops out of Iraq?

You opened the door for ISIS.

Well, Obama's got that part down pat. I guess we'll just have to sit back and see if ISIS comes through on their part.

Scarborough thinks golf is a part of a brilliant thrust & parry global strategy.

What a load of bulls**t. One of these days, Obama is going to wet his pants and the American press will say he’s invented a new personal cooling system.

when you were weak, you make your enemies think you were strong

Right right this is the same strategy that the French used in 1940!

There’s a significant difference between not having a strategy and not revealing your strategy to your enemy. Obama is clearly in the former camp rather than the latter.
