If this Pooh metaphor was really any kind of outrageously stupid thing to say (and I don't really think it is), then isn't the story really that this current pentagon advisor said something stupid, not that Obama might have a silly policy in the possible future if he brings on this current pentagon advisor who said something stupid?
