Peggy Noonan gives a preview of the Emperor's address tonight :
So what will he say? Some guesses.
He will not really be trying to “convince the public.” He will be trying to move the needle a little, which will comfort those who want to say he retains a matchless ability to move the masses. It will make him feel better. And it will send the world the message: Hey, this isn't a complete disaster. The U.S. president still has some juice, and that juice can still allow him to surprise you, so watch it. He will attempt to be morally compelling and rhetorically memorable. He will probably, like Susan Rice yesterday, attempt to paint a graphic portrait of what chemical weapons do—the children in their shrouds, the suffering parents, what such deaths look like and are. This is not meaningless: the world must be reminded what weapons of mass destruction are, and what the indifference of the world foretells. He will claim the moral high ground. He will temporarily reserve the use of force and welcome recent diplomatic efforts. He will suggest it was his threat of force that forced a possible diplomatic solution. His people will be all over the airwaves saying it was his deft leadership and steely-eyed threat to use force that allowed for a diplomatic break. The real purpose of the speech will be to lay the predicate for a retrospective judgment of journalists and, later, historians. He was the president who warned the world and almost went—but didn't go—to war to make a point that needed making. Get ready for a leak war between Kerry's staff and Hillary Clinton's. He will mount the podium in a single bound ,his chin jutting ala Mussolini ,and grandly proclaim his monumental blunders to the world in triumphant tones. His head, swiveling majestically the better to read the ghostwritten speech projected on TOTUS . He will gesture to the left and right ,he will deliver focus group tested talking points .And the Slimes will proclaim his magnificence . All hail Emperor "0"!! He has brought us peace for our time!!

Amazing stuff . Putin is b*tch slapping the emperor worse than Khrushchev did to JFK in Vienna 1961 . But in Kennedy's defense ,this happened in his 1st year . By his 3rd years he stood toe to toe with Khrushchev .
What I don't get is that this Syria gambit by the emperor undermines one of the few foreign policies he has right... the pivot east . I thought he wanted to disengage from the Levant . His 'unbelievably small', 'shot across the bow' ,that is not a 'pin prick', will most likely serve to do the reverse. |
