    Even Liberals Agree: Obama Foreign Policy is Amateurish
    http://bizblogger.blogspot.com/2009/11/even-liberals-agree-obama-foreign.html

    Forget about policies. The Obama team is incompetent (maybe it's a good thing).

    From Leslie Gelb:

    President Obama’s nine-day trip to Asia is worth a look back to fix two potent problems, past and future. First, the trip’s limited value per day of presidential effort suggests a disturbing amateurishness in managing America’s power. On top of the inexcusably clumsy review of Afghan policy and the fumbling of Mideast negotiations, the message for Mr. Obama should be clear: He should stare hard at the skills of his foreign-policy team and, more so, at his own dominant role in decision-making. Something is awry somewhere, and he’s got to fix it.

    You do realize that most blogs are opinions of the clueless & retarded?

    Copying & pasting them makes you twice as clueless & retarded.

      copying and pasting a political blog at SBR is the equivalent of copying and pasting JJ's picks at the Vegas Insider.

          I prefer the professional war mongering policy instead. Committing war crime should be left to the pros.

            You have any idea how many books are published every year worldwide? Writing and publishing a book is not hard.

                He's done more than just "write a book." He's considered an expert in foreign policy, if just from a libtard point of view, but you and daggerboy shouldn't really have a problem with that.

                  And?

                  Opinions are like assholes, everyone has em.

                  He's also said Dumbya had no strategy for victory in Iraq and was avoiding defeat just so he could pass the problem on to the next guy. Do you agree with him?

                  He's also praise Obama's handling of North Korea. I'm sure you don't agree with him there.

                    Get over it. The media is alway gonna stir stuff up with anybody no matter who it is. Let the man do his job. The one before is the man that screwed all of this up, blame him.

                      I know what Gelb is. Did you read the Title to the article? This guy WANTS Hussein to be a success, but it is becoming painfully obvious that Hussein is clueless, and even he has to admit it.

                        So if in the future, he says Obama is the greatest president ever, you will post the blog?

                        I'm sure you will.

                            garlic pie/obama our lord/all the other guys this guy was....

                            reminds me of my neighbors' dog

                            SO HAPPY when he's gone, you have no idea why, all you know is the barking stopped, and you really (foolishly) think it might be gone forever

                            but then soon the barking starts up again, and your homicidal thoughts return

                            THIS GUY gets to post and bump threads off the front page, but BOBBY and FIVEY are banned??

                            WTF???
