Obama: 'send me somewhere east of Suez...'

Our lad is happily making himself look like a fool in Southeast Asia while those in opposition continue to lick their wounds. Some argue O should be back home dealing with the Gaza crisis, but I am not sure his presence there, or anywhere else, would be much of a boon.
 
 
Fox news insists that an invasion of Gaza is immanent while our domestic version of CNN and the networks are holding out for a deus ex machina in the form of a cease fire negotiated in Egypt.
 
Egypt, my Lord, Egypt. American savants are still arguing over the true nature of the Muslim Brotherhood. Mohamed Morsi looks more and more like an Ayatollah every day. I am sure we have a bevy of functionaries reminding him hourly that the money we give to Egypt is intended to keep the country on our side.
 
 
Everyone knows that this affair could lead to the war with Iran that Israel seems to so desperately want. As for the Gazans, cannon fodder and their leaders are dancing to the tune of the mullahs.
 
I caught a glimpse of Hillary Clinton today. She was in Burma/Myanmar and was largely eclipsed by O himself. The more I see of her the more I am convinced she takes dressing and beauty advice from Angela Merkel. I fully admit that I haven't a clue as to where Hillary's mind is these days. Nary a whisper of or about her from the pundits.
 
 
She must be in deep shadenfreud over the whipping Susan Rice has been taking over her loud, clear and eminently false statements that Benghazi was the result of an anti-Muslim film. When O first appointed Rice, he made it clear she would answer directly to him and not to the Secretary of State.
 
 
Finally, O stepped in to rescue Rice asking the bullies in the Senate to pick on him rather than her. Middle school antics all around.
