The reasonable ones.

Cutting deals with former adversaries. That’s what Obama is doing. With the Iranians. With the Afghans. With Assad in Syria. Wonderful. I like it. Obama and his foreign policy advisors are wise. Recognizing that diplomacy is far better than war. One has to recognize that regime change isn’t going to happen. In Iran. In Syria. In Afghanistan. Therefore, one has to accommodate. Work things out. Compromise. Obama is discovering that it’s easier to negotiate with foreign leaders than with his domestic opponents, the Republicans. The GOP steadfastly refuses give and take. Instead, Republicans want war. With Obama. They want to make Obama fail. Which means America fails.  Really, America’s fiercest enemy is from within. Crazy, lunatic fringe Republicans. There’s no dealing with them.  The Syrians, the Afghans, the Iranians. They are becoming the reasonable ones. –Jim Broede
