Woolsey: Obama Is ‘World Champion of Political Correctness’
Former CIA Director James Woolsey thinks Barack Obama’s refusal to identify radical Islam as the root cause of the Islamic State’s terrorism is foolish. “The president is sort of a world champion of political correctness and has let it run too far,” Woolsey said. “It would be different if he were taking a really stern position with respect to those groups in the Middle East and elsewhere that are causing huge problems.” But Obama is not taking a stern position, despite his occasional tough talk. Woolsey added, “Basically, he looks scared. He looks as if he’s afraid to use the adjective ‘Islamic’ when describing the terrorists.” Scared is not the way the U.S. commander in chief should present himself.
