And the days dwindle down to the end of this reign of incompetence (thank goodness), it is time to consider what has been the 'legacy' of this administration....
...and understand why Jimmy Carter is cheering.
1. Hasan Nidal is alive, and Detroit is dead.
2. Iran has the green light on nuclear weapons, and ISIS has a caliphate
3. " The president has convinced himself that the open-ended appeasement of Iran will replicate the Nixon-Kissinger triumph with China. But they made no concessions to the Chinese: They agreed that there was one China but that Taiwan would not be reunited with the mainland by force, and it has not been.
Mr.Obama is handing Iraq to Iran ashe gives Iran a green light to nuclear weapons,at the latest in ten years, as he unblocks $150 billion that has been frozen,without even getting a reduction in rhetorical abusefrom Tehran. Tom Friedman of theNew York Timesinfamously called it a “doctrine,” in the sense of the Stimson or Truman or Nixon doctrines.
But insipidity, irresolution, and obfuscation do not constitute a doctrine.
America’s traditional allies havelost all respect for [Obama's] foreign-policy-making...
As the U.S. cranks up to another presidential election, and rhetoric echoes loudly around the country about “the greatest nation in human history” (certainly a fair description in many respects),Americans should be aware of how the country is perceived by foreigners. .... it has almost become, as President Nixon warned,“a pitiful, helpless giant.”

5. After careful consideration, Obama selected Peter Singer as the federal government's "science adviser."
" A German politician explained why he was so popular: “Peter Singer's ideas are logical, free from religion and easy to understand”.
However, these encomiums were lost on a gathering outside where about 250 people had assembled to protest the invitation. Their message was that Singer believes in killing babies.
...a Swiss newspaper published an interview with Singer in which, under aggressive questioning, he expressed his views with characteristic frankness.
Neue Zuricher Zeitung: You do not consider an infant to be more worthy of protection than an embryo. On the other hand, you do not necessarily ascribe a higher status to humans than to animals.
Peter Singer: Belonging to the human species is not what makes it morally wrong to kill a living being. Why should all members of the species homo sapiens have a right to life, whereas other species do not? This idea is merely a remnant of our religious legacy. For centuries, we have been told that man was created in the image of God, that God granted us dominion over the animals and that we have an immortal soul."
