Krauthammer: Obama Middle East Shortcomings 'Not a Manhood Issue,' 'Absence of Strategic Thinking'

On Monday’s “Special Report” on the Fox News Channel, Washington Post columnist Charles Krauthammer reacted to remarks by New York Times columnist David Brooks on “Meet the Press” on Sunday in which he said President Barack Obama had a “manhood problem” on Middle East foreign policy.

“This is not a manhood issue with Obama,” Krauthammer said. “This is an issue of a complete absence of strategic thinking. It’s not a question of the heart. It’s a question of the head. This administration, this president did not have a strategic idea in their head. Let me remind you of the first grade speech that Obama made about foreign policy. He was at the U.N. in 2009 and he actually said no nation can or should dominate another. Without a doubt the single stupidest remark about foreign policy ever uttered by a president of the United States.”
