Obama Administration Finger-Pointing, but Few Answers, After Syria Solution Fails

Here's Pamela Geller with the background, "‘The devil made me do it’: Obama’s foreign policy just reached a new low":
It took the NY Times seven years after I wrote my Obama book to tell the truth about Obama. But the NY Times and their fellow thumb-suckers in the media are as much at fault as he is for scrubbing, whitewashing and promoting the deeds of this cretin.

Obama just threw his entire administration (and his party) under the bus for his catastrophic failures in Iraq and Syria.

Once again Obama is refusing to take responsibility for the unfolding, unimaginable disasters suffered at his hand. The devil made him do it? He is the devil...
And here's Peter Baker's report, at the New York Times:
WASHINGTON — By any measure, President Obama’s effort to train a Syrian opposition army to fight the Islamic State on the ground has been an abysmal failure. The military acknowledged this week that just four or five American-trained fighters are actually fighting.

But the White House says it is not to blame. The finger, it says, should be pointed not at Mr. Obama but at those who pressed him to attempt training Syrian rebels in the first place — a group that, in addition to congressional Republicans, happened to include former Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton.

At briefings this week after the disclosure of the paltry results, Josh Earnest, the White House press secretary, repeatedly noted that Mr. Obama always had been a skeptic of training Syrian rebels. The military was correct in concluding that “this was a more difficult endeavor than we assumed and that we need to make some changes to that program,” Mr. Earnest said. “But I think it’s also time for our critics to ‘fess up in this regard as well. They were wrong.”
He never, ever, takes responsibility for his own administration's massive failures. He is the devil.
