While the President leaves town to play golf with NFL stars and other friends, seven year old jihadis are posing on Twitter with the severed heads of their enemies.
Should we then be surprised that Hillary Clinton, trying to feather her
own nest is already slamming her former boss as weak on foreign policy - when she led the State Department. It would make for great daytime television drama if the soap opera weren't so real. Meanwhile her leadership style appears to be to check poll numbers and stick her finger to the wind hoping for providence.
The fact is that neither one of these amateurs has any idea what goes on in the real world outside their dense little circles of friends and sycophants who tell them what they want to hear.
While it has become common practice to simply blame Bush for any problems Mr. Obama has had to face, he has now owned the office for six years. Is he that helpless that he still blames his predecessor? What is interesting is how calm, cool, and collected President Bush has been on all these attacks. While I still find him to the wrong President who vastly increased the police state that is the US, he looks like a monk in comparison to Mr. Obama. Moreover, it has been Obama that has destroyed the US military, not a foreign foe, but its own leader that makes it less likely to be able to confront attacks in the world.
Perhaps Mr. Obama and Mrs. Clinton are hoping you will not notice as things continue to spiral out of control, but it spiraled out of control on their respective watches. Perhaps they hope that you will be too ensconced in your NFL schedule or holiday shopping. Maybe they are hoping you are too busy making ends meet to notice the trail of disaster they have left behind. Hopefully though voters will remember that while the world burns these two enjoy their vacations from the limelight.
