The price of the Obama Doctrine
[DONSURBER.BLOGSPOT] For the second time in two months, Jeffrey Goldberg of Atlantic Monthly has tried to explain the Obama Doctrine.

The trouble is, the Obama Doctrine does not exist. It is a fairy tale, a unicorn, that homework assignment that the dog ate. President B.O. has no foreign policy other than outsourcing it to the next president. He sees no reason to expend any political capital whatsoever on foreign policy and given how the Democratic Party trashed his predecessor, I can see Obama's point.
Why be punished for doing the right thing?

However,
by candlelight every wench is handsome...
Obama's shirking of his duties is bearing its rotted fruit a few years early. Two attacks by Islamic State
...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allah around with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not really Moslems....
turbans in recent months -- including Sunday's attack in Orlando, the largest slaughter of homosexuals in the Western World -- forced him to answer for his political cowardice.

He got angry -- furious -- at Donald Trump for being right about terrorism. Under Obama, the nation is now less protected against terrorism than any time since 9/11.

#1 O is making the U.S. a radical islam-friendly place with unrestricted immigration, open borders, by eliminating any mention of radicsl islam in the Feral Govmint, and by doing little to prevent horrific attacks.

#2 The other part of the O doctrine was the withdrawal of troops in Iraq in 2011 thus creating ISIS/ISIL in the vacuum left behind.

#3 The crazier things get the worse it'll be when the pendulum swings back again. I think Black Lives Matter and CAIR and others seem to have forget that lesson.

#4 His lashing out at Trump shows more about his loyalty to Islam and his Trotsky agenda. He was really hurt that Islam attacked "His" constituents. He feels betrayed by his faith, that moment when a useful idiot realizes he is a tool. His lashing out is like beating the dog because his wife is being a bitch.

#5 Directing the media emphasis to the hazards of importing muslims clouds the focus of the narrative about NAFTA and the porous southern border. The emotional impact on 100 families cannot (nor should) be balanced against the devastating national long term economic impact of unemployment but the attention of the masses has been shifted to problems seemingly more immediate.
Ergo, kicking the wife's dog.
