Well, let me 'cherry pick' a couple of things from your post .. U.S. officials indicated last week they have contingency plans to help cope with any upheaval in global markets after the elections, and they say Mr. Obama will deploy his diplomatic skills and offer lessons from the U.S. experience handling the 2008-09 financial crisis to help European leaders reach consensus. Nice to know the administration has plans to cope with problems AFTER the election .. why do you think they would have put of any solutions for four years, already, if they indeed had them? Obama's diplomatic skills? Would that be bowing to the Saudian king, or giving a gift of dvds of his own speeches, to the Queen of England ... in the wrong format yet? What lessons did Obama get from his non-handling of our crisis? Especially lessons he could pass on? Having a dearth of influence risks becoming an election-year theme for Mr. Obama, who has called on Congress, with little success, to pass jobs initiatives he says would cushion the U.S. economy from a blow from Europe. So Obama truly expects to have success with congress? After the way he has repeatedly belittled them and worked around them to pass his personal agenda items? How could he be surprised that he now has no influence with them? But, he's now set himself up to blame congress, too, for the economy. Seems his entire working day is either blaming others, or setting up new scapegoats. That's enough. I'm getting nauseous reading this crap. Oh, yeah, don't you just love the way the administration is trivializing Russia's dealings in Syria? Won't be long now until the world looks to Russia for leadership ... where they used to look nowhere but at the USA. Damn, it's been a great three and a half years, hasn't it?
