I wonder which campaign donors or party hacks are next in line.

Here's the article in full (http://www.nytimes.com/2014/10/30/world/middleeast/mounting-crises-raise-questions-on-capacity-of-obamas-team.html?ref=politics&_r=0) referenced above. Substantially more fleshed out & absent some of the subjective diversions of Mr. Yashar's article.

WASHINGTON — One day this month, as the nation shuddered with fears of an Ebola outbreak and American warplanes pounded Sunni militants in Syria, President Obama’s national security adviser, Susan E. Rice, invited a group of foreign policy experts to the White House to hear their views of how the administration was performing.

She was peppered with critiques of the president’s Syria and China policies, as well as the White House’s delays in releasing a national security strategy, a congressionally mandated document that sets out foreign policy goals. On that last point, Ms. Rice had a sardonic reply.

“If we had put it out in February or April or July,” she said, according to two people who were in the room, “it would have been overtaken by events two weeks later, in any one of those months.”
...

At a time when the Obama administration is lurching from crisis to crisis — a looming Cold War in Europe, a brutal Islamic caliphate in the Middle East and a deadly epidemic in West Africa — it is not surprising that long-term strategy would take a back seat. But it raises inevitable questions about the ability of the president and his hard-pressed national security team to manage and somehow get ahead of the daily onslaught of events.

Can't be Aunt Zatoonie. Didn't she just recently craok and the people of Mass blasted her out of the public housing unit she most ungraciously occupied?

Could be Uncle Omar though - he's got enough DUI's to warrant instant street-cred with the dems and he's an illegal immigrant to boot. Win-win!!

I normally hold my breath before the Comrade in Chief appoints someone new, but I think he pretty much hit rock bottom with those two.
