First Nancy Pelosi at
a press conference yesterday, and now Obama at a press conference with the
Swedish Prime Minister today have shamelessly denied Obama’s setting a red line on Syrian
use of chemical weapons. Stunning in its lack of veracity, but
entirely in character, clearly this guy and his Progressive minions cannot be trusted.
Today, the party's talking point is that the red line wasn’t Obama’s
red line, it was “humanity’s” redline and the “world’s” red line respectively. Well, at least he didn’t blame Bush
or the Republicans—yet. If it weren’t so mendacious and embarrassing, it would
be laughable. Like a spoiled, narcissistic child, this guy can’t take responsibility
for anything he does wrong. So much for
principle and integrity. He possesses neither.
Terribly botched by our amateurish Commander-in-Chief from the beginning,
the incompetence, mixed signals and woeful lack of White House leadership
nothwithstanding, on balance I still tend to support a better-late-then-never punitive and clearly
defined military intervention in Syria designed to significantly degrade and
deter Assad’s military assets, the underlying objective being to discourage like-minded violations by North Korea and Iran. Is it too late? I guess that remains to be seen.
Tragically, however,
the Administration's having stupidly telegraphed our intended plan of attack,
Syria is now rapidly shifting target locations and protecting them with human
shields, an action which will surely result in otherwise avoidable collateral
damage while minimizing our attack’s effectiveness.
What a terrible and entirely avoidable mess this feckless, unprincipled so-called President
has perpetrated on the United States and a Free World still stunned by his embarrassing ineptitude and dishonesty.
Always the self-serving cynical politician with a penchant
for blaming others, Obama is now asking Congress for authorization to
act. But, adding to the endless muddle, in the same breath he asserts that if
Congress votes against action, he will unilaterally take action anyway. Huh?
Anyone who trusts this guy's stability, maturity or integrity must be
brain-dead.
Wouldn’t it be
wonderful to have a clear-headed grown-up--a statesman--in the White House
again? Perhaps it would be much better for us all were he to remain on the golf course.POSTSCRIPT: Looks like I spoke too soon. During a recent O'Reilly Factor interview, liberal operative James Carville blamed "Bush's mismanagement of the Iraq invasion" for Americans' anxiety over Syria. Yup. It's Bush's fault. Ya' just can't make this stuff up, folks. The shameless, unprincipled liberal blame game is relentless.
