| Obama the virtuoso manager |
| 2014-10-22 |
| by Caroline Glick h/t Gates of Vienna Since he assumed office nearly six years ago, US President Barack Obama has been dogged by allegations of managerial incompetence. Obama, his critics allege, had no managerial experience before he was elected. His lack of such experience, they claim, is reflected in what they see as his incompetent handling of the challenges of the presidency. In everything from dealing with the Congress, to reining in radical ideologues at the IRS, to handling the chaos at the Mexican border, to putting together coordinated strategies for dealing with everything from Ebola to Islamic State (IS), Obama’s critics claim that he is out of his league. That he is incompetent. But if Israel’s experience with him is any guide, then his critics are the ones who are out to sea. Because at least in his handling of US relations with the Jewish state, Obama has exhibited a mastery of the tools of the executive branch unmatched by most of his predecessors. Consider two stories reported in last Friday’s papers. |

| #5 The administration is certainly the master of the slow roll. Consider the IRS and its rounds of pound-the-table laughable questions: "Are you ever planning on running for office?" "Detail what you say in your prayers." Consider the interminable stone-walling, counting on a shift of attention to the next outrageous scandal. The Trunks are outclassed and impotent. |
