Apologies if this got posted and I just missed it.

Seems that the people in charge of the US are totally clueless.

Sun-Tzu was right, you should understand your enemy as you understand yourself, and right now I understand we are f@cked.

Only six people in the US Embassy in Baghdad are fluent in Arabic, about two dozen of its 1,000 employees having some familiarity with the language.

Bravo! That's the kind of crack work I'd expect from a drunk frat guy who got into college as a favor to his family. Thankfully, our President is NOTHING like that...

Five bucks says I can find more people fluent in Arabic the next time I take the dog for a walk. Jesus...

I'm surprised there are six people there who speak Arabic. It's probably the dudes who get paid 4 dollars a month to clean the toilets.

On a somewhat unrelated note, it sure would suck to convert to Islam thinking it's the only way to be saved, then discover afterwards that you converted to the wrong version and you're targeted for termination.

I'd imagine it's a little like turning into a soccer fan and then finding yourself cheering for Manchester City instead of Manchester United. Except without intoxicants...

Finding them is easy, getting them to work for the government is hard.

And yet, it's easy to get them to explode themselves.

pelosi put this nit-wit in that position because the other candidate was someone she was politically afraid of upstaging her dumb ass.

the priority for her is to protect their own backside instead of putting the right person in the right place.

The man is clearly qualified to be president, obviously. I have to commend Pelosi for finding someone with the intellectual ability that compares so favorably with the commander/decider in chief...

So, do you dislike her cuz it's that she's a Democrat or a woman?

Must be why Bush put Rummy in charge of the pentagon.
