Bushwhacked Barack

Pajamas Media   "Using his predecessor as a foil for his failures might trap the president, as polls show he is beginning to suffer by comparison."....
"For a man ostensibly focused on winning the future, President Obama spends a disproportionate amount of his time fighting the battles of the past. But the American public is not looking back at what prior presidents did; they are looking toward the current president for leadership and solutions on the big challenges facing the country. As a policy address, President Obama’s budget speech failed miserably to provide either. The numbers show that as a campaign speech, it wasn’t much better."
Obama is loved by his base for his domestic agenda;  his stature as a world leader is not on their collective radar, apparently. Neville Chamberlain in the 1930's is considered by history an example of a feckless leader who sells out our allies to appease evil men. But many are not aware that he had economic policies that did much to help Great Britain emerge from the depression.
Chamberlain was an excellent economist, but his accomplishments have been forgotten by most because of his cowering before Hitler. Even if ObamaCare and European socialism become the saviors of our system, Obama will be judged by the presence of nuclear Iran and North Korea as well as all other things that happen on the world stage including Obama's willingness to sell out our allies. History has bigger priorities than the Democrat Party.
