Is It Just Me or Is the World Exploding? So Why Isn’t Obama Doing More?

We are always cautioned not to overdramatize, because if the worst doesn’t happen, we can look silly. Maybe so. But I look around the world right now and think: Let’s not under-dramatize, either. We see a set of crises coming to a head all at once that could well plunge the world into war and chaos for some time to come. And we the United States—not President Obama, not John Kerry, not the Republicans; the whole United States—aren’t doing nearly enough to try to help the region’s democrats and promote our purported values. more . . .

 

At first, I wondered if db was just posting an obligatory "bash the left" article for the first time in order to appear balanced. The title, for example, does indicate that maybe he was trying to hold to a bit more "balance" as per his stated view of himself (laugh).

But then I saw this quote inside the article...

...and realized it was just another "blame Bush" clip.

 

It was the Daily Beast. What did you expect?

 

They should change their name to: "The Daily Dump"

 

I expected Salon or Slate - the typical DB hangouts.

 

He apparently searches diligently for pointless articles to post.

Last one I waste my time on. DB, you're very close to joining The List.

 

Odumbo doesn't care about the world exploding, so no wonder he's not "doing more".

In fact, he's DOING ALL HE CAN TO FORCE AMERICA TO IMPLODE! That's his agenda.

 

Oh god, no, not that, you're too important.

 

Sounds like something I'd like to be on.

 

The only question I have is, will he do it quietly, or go all drama queen?
