Don’t Bother Obama With Piddly Things Like NATO
Josh Rogin of Bloomberg reports, “Barack Obama has yet to meet with the new head of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization, and won’t see Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg this week, even though he is in Washington for three days. Stoltenberg’s office requested a meeting with Obama well in advance of the visit, but never heard anything from the White House, two sources close to the NATO chief told me.” Why would Obama take time away from things like negotiating with Iran, criticizing Israel or meeting with Google executives to do something so unimportant as to meet the leader of NATO? It’s not as if Russia is overrunning Ukraine or anything. In all seriousness, the utter malfeasance of this commander in chief is beyond anything we’ve seen from an American president.
