The buck stops right there in the Oval Office. But... In his defense, as much as it pains me, anything he does will probably be wrong. The Middle East has defied any solutions for longer than all of us have been alive.

Thankless job. A quarter of your bosses hate you. The other quarter think your poo doesn't stink (which would get tiresome fast...). ...and the rest don't care one way or another, which would annoy me, too. Love me or hate me, but don't ignore me.
But he could be as smart as he thinks he is, and the Middle East would still make him look like an idiot. Has any President looked like a genius is their dealings with the Middle East? I can't think of one, right off hand.
