What iceberg?

Michael Goodwin does a nice job summarizing what we all know (even those liberals who are at least capable of being honest with themselves): “Obama’s ship is sinking”.

Here’s something particularly ominous to bear in mind:
Obama’s fecklessness is so unique that our adversaries and enemies surely realize they will never face a weaker president. They must assume the next commander-in-chief will take a more muscular approach to America’s interests and be more determined to forge alliances than the estranged man who occupies the Oval Office now.

So Vladimir Putin, Iran, China, the Islamic State, al Qaeda and any number of other despots and terrorists know they have two years to make their moves and advance their interests, and that resistance will be token, if there is any at all.

They'll have a few years longer, until Obumbler's successor can repair the damage he's inflicted on the armed forces. Until the big stivck is repaired, the next president will have to speak more softly than is usual for the leader of the most poweful nation on Earth.

And for all those who longed for a Post_American world order, what you will get is now plain as a pikestaff; unlimited chaos and aggression by bad actors, who make a mockery of the values our "Progressives" supposdely hold. Not even a halfway decent order, but a grand disorder.

Two years is a very, very long time.

"Obama’s fecklessness is so unique..." this is not a certainty.
