Obama has some terrific advisers.
Obama Adviser: Pooh Bear, Luke Skywalker Hold Lessons for Foreign Policy
by FOXNews.com
Wednesday, June 18, 2008Foreign policy architects could benefit from studying Winnie the Pooh and Star Wars, according to a Barack Obama adviser who is set to attend a meeting of the Democratic candidate’s national security work group Wednesday.
Richard Danzig, former Navy secretary under President Clinton, drew several creative and unusual analogies to explain the challenges America faces overseas during a foreign policy conference in Washington, D.C., last week, according to an article in the British newspaper The Daily Telegraph.
In arguing that the country should back off a policy that causes too much pain, Danzig said, “”Winnie the Pooh seems to me to be a fundamental text on national security.”
He read a section from the children’s book where Pooh Bear hurts himself going down the steps because he hasn’t stopped to think of another way. …
Holy Pooh.
Hey does Obama or his advisers know that Winnie has a Canadian connection (traces back to Winnipeg)? Perhaps not. Harvard graduate Barrack Hussein Obama himself (no, not an adviser) once noted that the leader of Canada was “the president of Canada”.
