Compromiser in Chief

Iran to Obama: Pound sand

Obysmal fancies himself the Wise Compromiser, a split-the-difference kind of guy. It's reported that he's about to split the difference on Afghanistan by providing about half as many troops as the our military says it needs -- but he's making up for that by taking twice as long to come to the decision! (The problem here is that our foolish generals insist on seeing this as a military issue, while Obama knows it's entirely personal and political.)

Maybe he can get Iran to split the difference and only build half the nuclear bombs it's got on the drawing board. Or maybe they'll agree to only nuke half of Israel.

I'm coming to the conclusion that Obama is exactly what he appears to be, a glib, shallow, egocentric half-wit. But I'm willing to split the difference on that, and say that he's a half-glib, half-shallow, half-egocentric quarter-wit.
