SOAF, I think he's got you there.
Look, I'm certainly no fan of Obama's, but I don't think the cause is helped by exaggerating the criticisms.
There's certainly the argument that he's bad enough without the hyperbole.
Moreover, this kind of stuff hurts credibility when talking about real problems.
Exactly.
Like the fact that he's obviously in way over his head.
Maybe this will help people realize the importance of experience over rock-star status.

Maybe someone has a "policy disagreement"?
Obama's deputy national security adviser resigns
WASHINGTON (AP) - President Barack Obama's deputy national security adviser has called it quits.
The White House says Mark Lippert is leaving the administration to return to active duty in the U.S. Navy.
Obama said in a statement Thursday that he was not surprised when Lippert broke the news because he is "passionate about the Navy." Obama says he admires and respects Lippert's devotion to his country and that he's answering the call to active duty service.

Quote:"You don't leave one of the most powerful foreign policy posiitons in a new Administration, having personally served the President for the last five years in his formative ascent to the Oval Office, to take some unspecified position in the U.S. Navy," he continued, suggesting there was more of a back story to it.
