John Maxwell’s The Law of Empowerment - Only Secure Leaders Give Power to Others

[farmerz_agent]

I really value John Maxwell’s books on leadership, I find them inspiring but I think The Obama Administration needs to retool their leadership policies. They are giving too much power to their lower level staff and it is creating a culture of corruption.

Those responsible for the Benghazi murders were low-level State Department staff

Are they being indicted for homicide?

[fizzyland]

Why are low-level State Department staff members killing people anyway? To get experience points, obviously.

Are you blaming table top roleplaying games, MMORPGs or violent video games in general?

[fizzyland]

Dungeons & Dragons, the original, not that awful d20 system stuff.

Neutral Evil?

Lawful Evil - it's all about advancement within the hierarchy of hell, err the State Dept.

From the link;
The accountability report by former Ambassador Thomas Pickering and retired chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Adm. Mike Mullen was grossly inadequate (“McCain senses Benghazi ‘cover-up,’ wants more Clinton testimony,” Web, May 12). The two men concluded those responsible for the Benghazi murders were low-level State Department staff; they totally ignored the basic problem of why the Benghazi facilities remained open.

So, I think the answer is no.

Ah, that's what I do when I say something stupid too -- because it's not that bad to just repeat something stupid someone else said.

See how dumb I am, I don't even see the stupid part you're referencing. It was stupid to say that "Those responsible for the Benghazi murders were low-level State Department staff" ? Because no one was charged with a crime?

[pastorlenny]

LOL. Let's try it this way. From your point-of-view, who was responsible for the murders in Benghazi?

I'm sorry you're right I have been very unsupportive of President Obama's actions against those who actually killed our ambassador. I listen to a lot of right wing talk radio so I was unaware that he'd done anything to support.

I listen to a lot of right wing talk radio

That's a treatable condition that otherwise impairs critical thinking skills so perhaps you should reconsider.

[geezer_also]

I know, why would people get their news from talk radio when the can get it from Comedy Central? ;P

No, I tried Air America back in the day, they just aren't as optimistic.
