I was eminently impressed that the speech actually started on time. I was unimpressed that he decided to make his plea from the same spot in which Joe Biden proclaimed that passing Obamacare was a “big f’ing deal“. Trotting down the red carpet to discuss potential military action and a serious international issue just doesn’t […]

Alternate title: Vlad PWNS Barack. Somehow, I don’t think Vladimir Putin will be particularly please when Obama attempts to take credit for this plan. Which we know Obama will attempt, probably during his address tonight (Fox News) Syria’s foreign minister said Tuesday his government has accepted a Russian proposal to turn over control of its […]

Has anyone noticed the Old Media making a big deal out of these pacts? No? That’s weird (Grist) Barack Obama is walking the climate-change talk — all around the world. Or at least endorsing climate-change pacts. More like that latter part, since no one has a larger “carbon footprint” than Mr. Obama. Heck, his footprint […]

One really has to wonder what the strategy from Team Obama is. They’ve sent UN Ambassador Samantha Power to talk to…the ultra far left Center For American Progress. They’re sending, outrageously, Susan “It’s The Video” Rice to Capital Hill to argue for strikes on September 11th. Sec Of State Kerry makes comments like Syria facing […]

Obviously, The Washington Post’s E.J. Dionne takes some swipes at the GOP for failing to be super enthusiastic for whatever-the-hell Obama’s Syria policy is (beyond throwing a few bombs and missiles): that’s expected. By throwing a vote to congress Obama was creating a situation where the GOP could be assaulted no matter what. Then we […]

In fact, they think we’ve become downright Doveish Hawkish GOP taking dovish stance on Syria Of all the unexpected turns in the Syria debate, one stands out most: The GOP, the party of a muscular national defense, has gone the way of the dove. A decade after leading the country into Iraq and Afghanistan, Republicans […]

Anyone get the feeling that The Smartest Administration Evah!!!! is simply winging it based on college bull sessions? (Washington Examiner) Iran is enduring economic sanctions designed to slow the country’s nuclear weapons program, but President Obama’s team thought the regime might abandon dictator Bashar Assad over his use of chemical weapons in Syria’s civil war. […]

Secretary Of State John “Waffles” Kerry offers up an opinion piece at the far left Huffington Post which attempts to make the case to the far left that going all bomby on Syria is the Right Thing To Do, which starts off with a headline taking Obama’s line about it being the world setting the […]

It would have been so much easier had Team Obama put together a plan to strike Syria immediately for crossing that red line which Everyone Else set, alas, that would have required ignoring the economy education fiscal sanity golf, vacations, and campaigning. And as the Syrian issue drags on into weeks since the use of […]
