Olympic Fail!

Cj, over at the Illustrated Conservative took up the drum beat of the Olympic Fail that recently befell our beloved Pantload-in-Chief. It occasioned my response that I wish to share with you: 

"These folks struck out on so-o-o-o many levels. I mean there's the question of priorities of course. But it also engenders concerns about judgment as well. The spin out now is that it was a lost cause to begin with and, if that is the case, then why was the precious time and precious resources of the POTUS expended on the venture in the first place.

There's an economy that has a huge, sucking chest wound, there is a foreign policy that is becoming so bad, it makes Madeline Halfbright seem like a freaking genius.

(Oh, and while we're at it, where the hell is SOS Clinton anyway?)

And, most importantly, there's the little matter of a field commander with whom the Pantload-in-Chief has only had one meeting in the last 10 weeks and who is saying that he needs more resources of or the effort in Afghanistn will be going down the same toilet bowl that the Olympic bid, the economy, and our foreign policy is disappearing into.

Oh, wait a minute. I would be wrong. After Obama's dubious efforts got shoved down the glory hole in Copenhagen, he managed to squeeze in 30 minutes of face time with General McChrystal on Air Force One prior to his return to Washington D.C. Gosh, I wonder if anything substantive was discussed? Maybe the General got invited to another beer summit at the White House with Slow Joe Biden.

..as I said, on so-o-o-o-o many levels."
