There is a story about Mr. Obama relevant to the war, battle or whatever he declared Wednesday evening against the Islamic State, aka ISIS. It is found in his former campaign manager David Plouffe's account of the 2008 election, "The Audacity to Win."
Mr. Plouffe writes that during an earlier election race, Mr. Obama had a "hard time allowing his campaign staff to take more responsibility." To which Barack Obama answered: "I think I could probably do every job on the campaign better than the people I'll hire to do it." Audacity indeed. WSJ - Dan Henninger
The Commander in Chief has made no secret of his contempt for the Constitution, Congress, Cupcakes, Corpsmen and Combat Veterans of WWII and especially unborn Children. . Obama holds so many people in contempt - me and more than likely you -that would take an entire wing of his looming Presidential Library to include the encyclopedic nature of Obama's Universal Contempt(s). Contempt for the military is an easy one. Obama has purged as many generals as Joe Stalin.

President Obama holds so many other vocations in contempt, but they will not be asked to sternly admonish ISIS(L)
1 comment:
I say we should purge Obama and bring back McChrystal and undo everything Obama did to him.
