What is Obama's point with the View?

Joseph Curl:
Finally, the army of pundits are aghast at President Obama.

They are shocked at his unmannerly dismissal of the global stage where he belongs. They are astonished by his callous indifference to the world peace he promised us.

All in the name of craven politics with a little couch time on daytime TV.

Scandalous! Inexplicable! Terrible judgment!

The idea that Mr. Obama would sit with the ladies of “The View” while Libya burns, Iran perfects a nuclear weapon and Syria spins out of control shocked them out of their senses.

They’re horrified that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu — whose country’s very existence rests in his hands at this moment — would travel 5,737 miles to the last lighthouse of freedom in the world, and President Obama won’t even cross the street to meet him.

Where have these pundits been? How is this a surprise?

Of course Mr. Obama has no time for American leadership in the world. Of course he has no time for anything other than winning re-election so that he can exercise all the “flexibility” he wants once he will no longer be answerable to voters.

And that is why in this world of peace and American popularity he promised us, Mr. Obama decided to stiff the United Nations, Bibi Netanyahu and all those headaches and head for the comfy sofa on “The View.”

And why, you ask, would this insufferable televised jabberfest be important to the former leader of the free world’s re-election chances?

That is because, in this post-racial and post-partisan world he promised us, Mr. Obama and his campaign have divvied all you annoying voters up into categories based on your race, sex and partisan leanings.

Mr. Obama has determined that he needs to appeal the most to female voters who are white, middle-class or lower and generally pretty moderate. If you go to church regularly, for instance, he’s not too keen on you. 
...
KT McFarland suggest another reason why he stiffed the world leaders:

Keeping Romney from looking Presidential appears to be the motive.

Should Republicans go ahead and add Supreme Court Justices to head off Democrats

Washington Post: Some Democrats eye adding more justices to the Supreme Court to change its ideological bent The once-remote idea has gained the attention of liberals angered by the GOP push to remake the federal courts. Probably the easy way to defeat this court-packing scheme is for Trump to propose doing the same thing now.  It would lead to Democrat denunciations and claims that it would be wrong, thereby blowing up any attempt by them in the unfortunate event of Democrats winning a presidential election.

Is the F-35 obsolete?

Headline USA: Pentagon Fires Back after Musk Calls Its Most Expensive Project ‘Obsolete’ 'Yeah, as I'm sure you can appreciate, Mr. Musk is, currently, a private citizen, I'm not going to make any comments about what a private citizen may have to say about the F-35....'   ... ... Drones appear to be replacing jets for many operations.  The Russia-Ukraine war is an example of that.  Drones are often hard to detect and can be used for intelligence operations as well as for attacking enemy targets.  It would not surprise me to see drones engaging other drones in combat.  They also cost much less than manned fighters.
