The Obama Doctrine is...

that there is no Obama Doctrine.

“I think it’s important not to take this particular situation and then try to project some sort of ‘Obama doctrine’ that we’re going to apply in a cookie-cutter fashion across the board.”

That may be the clearest sentence we’ve gotten out of this president since he took office.

I’ve just had an epiphany. Barack Obama has spent so many years being cagey about what he really believes, trying to appear moderate to one crowd and at the same time signaling to his lefty community organizer allies that he’s really one of them, that he’s no longer able to tell a straight, simple truth about what he actually thinks. He never wants to say anything that would allow anyone in any faction to box him in definitively. That makes it easy to play to different segments of the voting public, but it makes for one seriously confusing commander. Which is what we’re getting in Libya.
