When I read this I immediately though about George W. Bush. Imagine the reaction had he been the one to make all these blunders.
Seriously. Think about it and try and tell me otherwise. Go ahead.
Oh yes, of course, it's the "right-wing" media to be blamed for this.
Look, forget the blame game. Forget it all. This is why the hatred for Bush was way over the top. It went from harsh criticism to something beyond the realm of healthy debate as far as I'm concerned.
On this day, Hilary Clinton, the savior to so many, a hero to Democrats, was no more "smarter" than Bush. Heck, she was part (though not entirely at fault. Still, one would think someone in the Democrat camp would have done their homework. She looks like she hasn't be kissed in months. Speaking of failing your homework, here's an example in Diplomatic Gifting errors made by the Democrats at The Hegemonist) another error that was under reported. One where Israeli president Shimon Peres innocuously kissed Clinton. An act in which will be met with suspicion in the Arab world.
This is a symbolic reminder of how messy things will get for Obama if he doesn't tread carefully. With his call for dialog with Iran, this will ruffle Israel; especially with the leader of the coalition in the Knesset hardliner Benjamin Netanyahu who will be a huge test for American leaders.
So much for Democrats being more attentive and more intelligent on foreign policy matters. Given the rhetorical attacks on Bush, the Democrats set themselves up nicely for a fall. They're off to an amateurish start.
Shit happens. I won't jump on them for this. But it should humble them and their supporters. It won't, but it should.
This should also once and for all quell the notion once and for all as Bush as an incompetent, narcissistic "monkey."
It should. But again, it won't.
Okay, okay! I'll give you a base on balls on this one, Lefty

ReplyDeleteI hope Manny stays happy and doesn't stir the pot in L.A.
Well, as for Clinton, look it's something I strenuously cautioned for a long time: don't insult someone if you don't know for a fact you could do a better job because the minute you make a mistake...
I've been called a "right-winger" for merely pointing out people should criticize the policies not the individual.
It became way, way, WAY too personal for my taste. It was almost inhuman.
I hope the Dems. learn fast. Because I'll tell you one thing, your enemies are smiling right now.
Thanks for the link! I completely missed the kiss, brilliant photo.
