40 Clowns in a Clown Car

And A Lot of Horn Honking

That's the Obama White House and the State Department.

The problem is, Americans aren't the only ones noticing that.

Putin is laughing so hard that he's squirting tears.

Assad is also.

What's so funny, you ask?  

Here's where we're headed:  Putin will broker a deal whereby a UN team is charged with accounting for, collecting and safeguarding all of Syria's chemical weapons.  Assad will say "Of Course!  Come on in!"  The UN will put together a detail to go to Syria and accomplish that.  

Guess who will be on that detail?  Do you think there will be any Russians?  Chinese?  When has the UN EVER sent anyone but Americans to do anything really serious?  So, you see, we will be sending American troops.  Tens of thousands of them.

The rebels want those chemicals.  They know where they are.  They will fight to keep them available for capture.

The UN force will have to fight the rebels for those weapons. Assad's forces will help.  The UN force - mostly Americans - will be, in effect, part of Assad's army, navy, and air force.  Killing rebels and getting killed.

Putin will be helplessly rolling on his Kremlin floor, laughing so hard that he can't even talk.

Are Putin, Assad, and your Ostrich Killer the only ones who can see this coming?  Aside from my regular readers, I mean. 

Brain dead, the entire lot of them clowns.

Any service members reading this and considering re-upping soon, my advice is get the hell out now while you're still alive.  The clown show is going to kill a lot of your buddies.

NOBEL PEACE PRIZE (AGAIN) - The Clown Show Goes On.

That's 'Again' because on October 22, 2007, I posted a blog entry titled "THE NOBEL PEACE PRIZE IS A CLOWN SHOW." You can read it at your leasure.

But this latest winner says it all. In ten years we have winners Jimmy Carter, Al Gore, and now Barack Hussein Obama. What did any of them do to promote peace? Where's Ronald Reagan (Ending the cold war and helping bring down the Berlin wall), George H.W. Bush (who liberated Kuwait), George W. Bush (who liberated Iraq and ended, at least for a decade or more, that regime's support of global terrorism), or - if you'd like a liberal candidate - Bill Clinton, who bombed Christians so that Muslims could prevail in Bosnia / Kosovo? Not saying this latter was necessarily a bad thing, but the dispassionate history has yet to be written about it.

Still. Peace? More immediately, what has Barack Hussein Obama done to promote peace? Anything at all? Can anyone point to something? Because I confess, folks, that your friendly Ostrich Killer can't think of anything, unless you count dissing our former allies and cozying up to our enemies. But maybe you can. If so, leave a comment. If you're thinking of referring to the Nobel committee's specifics to come up with a reason or two, good luck. You'll be blinded by their obfuscatory rhetoric. But then, English is probably their second language . . .
