Funny Because It's Chicago

After suffering HCR defeat at the hands of The Usurper, Hinderaker of Power Line looks over the sea through the piercing gaze of professional paranoid Frank Gaffney ("Who Lost Iraq?" Yes, it's China 1949 again.) & some other cluck's rightist Mid-East analysis; neither cheers him up, but it's a good excuse to get on Obama again. Except then he has to admit how Obama handed him his corn dog.
This is what I don't understand: why doesn't Obama bring to bear on foreign policy the lessons he learned in Chicago? Is "Be a faithless friend and a toothless enemy" the Chicago Way? Hardly. Maybe if Obama could just pretend that Ahmadinejad, Assad, Nasrallah et al. are Republicans....

  2. 4:43 is a perfectly acceptable time to be getting up. Or drinking. Or both. It's a West Coast thing.

    Also, if Obama pretended his "adversaries" were Republicans he'd have given in ages ago.

    /not totally snark, sadly

    Wooden shoe like to know?

    We were ready for sleep, but realized we could whip off two sentences & beat the rest of the Internazz to it, so we did. It's called dedication (or ennui).
