The dilemma faced by the Resident's non-policy in the MENA is laid bare in another brilliant peice by Richard Fernandez over at the Belmont Club, definitely worth a read; http://pajamasmedia.com/richardfernandez/2011/04/12/a-goal-too-far/ Wretchard dissects the problems caused by Obama's pathetic need to be liked and his policy of making enemies into strategic partners. Be sure to dig down into the comments, there is brilliance to be found. One quote I will repeat here is so very indiciatve of D.Cs attitude toward the proles, Nancy Pelosi addressing the Republicans;
"To my Republican friends: take back your party. So that it doesn’t matter so much who wins the election, because we have shared values about the education of our children, the growth of our economy, how we defend our country, our security and civil liberties, how we respect our seniors. Because there are so many things at risk right now — perhaps in another question I’ll go into them, if you want. But the fact is that elections shouldn’t matter as much as they do…But when it comes to a place where there doesn’t seem to be shared values then that can be problematic for the country, as I think you can see right now. "
(emphasis mine)
What a staggering display of hubris.
