Barack Obama has poor judgement, he is misguided. He has made disastrous policy after disastrous policy. Not a single foreign policy initiative — reset with Russia, lead from behind in Libya, red lines on Syria, deadlines to Iran, complete, precipitous withdrawal from Iraq, pressure on the Israelis, outreach to radical Islam, etc. has met with success

Crazy Joe: Has any Western, Eastern, or Mideastern leader ever had big success with their Mideast policy? Name one.

Putin's famous comment on negotiating with Obama: "It's like playing chess with a pigeon. It knocks over the pieces. It craps the board. Then it struts around acting like it won the game."

As the Wall Street Journal put it, “One might have thought that, by now Mr. Obama would be chastened by experience. Al Qaeda is “on a path to defeat” (2012). Bashar Assad’s “days are numbered” (2011). Russia and the U.S. “are not simply resetting our relationship but also broadening it” (2010). Yemen is an example of a counter terrorist strategy “we have successfully pursued . . . for years” (2014). And so on—a record of prediction as striking for the boldness of its initial claims as it is for the consistency of its failures.”

On the contrary, the DC neocon scum have been highly successful. That is until Vlad stepped and thwarted their plans for total chaos in the region. Isn't it obvious? As russia has proved, ISIS could have been easily delt with by the U.S., they chose not to because they wanted to use them against Assad first, then rub them out, creating a stable environment to build those gas pipelines to the EU while at the same time reducing Russia's customer base. Tie this in with the Nuland's Cookies-n-Coup in Ukraine, and the big picture comes into focus= there can be only one super power on the planet and Russia will always be at the top of Obombers "kill" list on his daily morning "hegeMONEY" board game.

" Russian planes have flown near a US drone, officials say, "

So what business did that drone have being there? Was it invited by the Syrian government? And what was it doing --helping Obamas "vetted rebels" which have now turned out to be Al Nusra?

Umm... do I sense a bit wishful thinking by mainstream media consumers and Obamabots here?

The Obama team should discuss their 'Exit Strategy' with the Russians, the syria war is unpopular and pointless, there is an embarassment before the Russian steps in and more 'Progress of Nonsenses' were made to the public by kicking up a Russianphobia to scare the ME people.

Seems like the US is failing more and more you can only cover up your mistakes for so long looks like this will be the next Vietnam war for them.
