Our Pathetic President

Listened to the president's speech today from the Rose Garden and it was obvious that he realizes that public opinion is against any military action in Syria and he also realizes he would have been better off in keeping his mouth shut.  Of course, past experiences has shown that is something he cannot do.  Remember, the police acted stupidly, the Benghazi movie, if I had a son he would look like Treyvon Martin to name a few instances of bloopers.  We know his only asset is his ability to give great speeches that have been written for him and installed on the teleprompter.  Other than that, this president is inexperienced in the real world, has no administrative or leadership skills and it shows every day.   

Now, since he has decided that going to Congress for approval on military action that the constitution states he must do.  It also should be noted that the three stooges (Obama, Biden and Kerry) stated when President Bush was in office that if the president did not go to Congress for approval on military action they would move to start impeachment proceedings.  Now, President Obama is hoping that Congress will not approve military action and he can then save face and of course, blame Congress for lack of military action, especially the republicans.  Military action is not indicated in this case and Syria is not a threat to our national security.  Contrary to what President Obama may think, he is not the savior of the world he believes himself to be and this only proves his naiveté on world issues.  That contrary to what he claims from Dreams from My Father, the United States is not the cause of the problems in the world that he believed when he went on his apology tour.  My hope is that this country can survive 3 more years of this presidency.  At this time is appears doubtful unless the American people send this president a clear message in the 2014 election that his entire presidency is a failure not only for our country, but for the world.    

Now that the president has spoken on the Syrian issue, he can get a round of golf in this weekend before leaving for the G8 summit in Europe next week.  After all, Congress will not be back in session until Sept. 9th.
