The four roots of Obama’s foreign policy catastrophes

The four roots of Obama’s foreign policy catastrophes. “…trust in the benign intentions of those who want to destroy us combined with a mistrust of the West – still animates this president.” These four wouldn’t be as bad if it weren’t for a fifth problem: the man simply will not learn from (or even acknowledge) his mistakes.

  • Quagmire is a spineless rodent, who takes all his foreign policy cues from an Islamic whore, and an admitted traitor, aka the king of Ketchup.

  • WE have a foreign policy? That must be new, I thought President Lady Pants just mad shit up as he went along..you know a bunch of cash here, a strongly worded memo there.....dead state department employees over there, group hugs with terrorists here....

  • Thus we have in chronological order. Fast and Furious into Mexico, Arab Spring, , Missiles to Syrian rebels, Benghazi, Syria gassing its own people, Putin invading Crimea and now it looks like Putin has made up his mind to take the rest of the Ukraine.

    quagmire thought he was so ready for the big table, all he has proven is that he needs to sit over at the children's table with the rest of the little one. All the time he leave us, the US citizens exposed and vulnerable to attacks from our enemies.

    So all you dim wit voters who thought you were getting the smartest man in the room, how do you feel now? What you got was a the dunce of the class.

    • You can bet he has always been the dunce of the class, thus the sealed records. The only reason he got into any college and was passed along was to fulfill a quota number, minority and foreign student. Legitimate minority students should be outraged at this practice as it detracts from their actual earned credentials.

  • Meanwhile back at the ranch... "Ignorance, hate, fear and intolerance... The Four Horsemen of the Democrats."

  • Of course he won't learn from his mistakes. There is a prerequisite to this type of learning: you have to actually realize you made a mistake!

    One of the basic characteristics of the lib mind is the consideration that you are perfect. Therefore in their own eyes, they never make mistakes. It's other people who are screwing them up.
