Obama "Wag The Dog"

Obama "Wag The Dog"

The drama and failure of the administration's action surrounding the "Syrian War" begs the question is the administration guilty of "Wag the Dog".  (Those of you not familiar with the term, look it up). I'm not going into the weeds on this, just want to make a very sharp point for people to ponder.  Behavior gives away character and motive.  So, for those familiar with the phrase Wag the Dog realize Obama did not have to hire a movie production unit.  All he had to do was concoct a story around a real event.  In fact a real horrific event.  A simple review of the behavior and unfolding events brings one closer to believing Obama has tried the "Wag the Dog" tactic to manipulate the public:

-        First and foremost is the most surprised people in the world was his staff.  Taking sole military action against Syria supposedly was a result of a 45 minute walk "around the White House grounds".

-        Suddenly we were faced with an Obama and Kerrey with rabid impatience to take immediate reaction.

-        Our allies were not adequately consulted  and neither was congress.

-        After denying vehemently he did not need congressional "approval", Obama suddenly asks. This while being resolute he did not need congressional approval.

-        Finally he is so relieved that Putin took the reins and avoided military action.  All in all, making a fool of the President.

What is one left to think?  I know what I think and it is not good.
