Blind to lead the blind

Obama is appointing Susan Rice to be National Security Adviser at this very minute.  Susan Rice is that clueless administration weenie who went on all the Sunday talk shows right after Benghazi to say Benghazi wasn't terrorism, it was just a spontaneous political demo that got a little out of hand.  Yeah right.  If she believed that, then I have a bridge to sell her. 
  National Security Adviser is a post invented in the Eisenhower administration, to sort out conflicts between the State and Defense departments (doves vs hawks)  It's a powerful post.  Nixon's national security adviser, Henry Kissinger, pretty much ran US foreign policy.  In fact Nixon wound up appointing Kissinger to be Secretary of State.  Anyhow, Obama is putting a clueless and ignorant party hack into the job.
   Obama could really use a good National Security Adviser.  He needs a lot of help.  So far, all Obama has managed is to subject the US to a torrent of scorn and abuse.  He offends our friends, and he makes nice to our enemies.  He is so dumb he cannot tell a friend from an enemy.  His new National Security Adviser isn't gonna make anything get better, not ever.  
   The clueless feel better when surrounded by the more clueless.
