So The Kneepad Media Has A Pass On #Syria. Will It Grow Real Curiosity?

by Smitty Fareed Zakaria is miffed: . . .it’s hard not to conclude that the administration’s handling of Syria over the last year has been a case study in how not to do foreign policy. But will the media grow some stones and note that Obama’s foreign policy is roughly as jacked up as his […]
