The most powerful man in the world, President Obama, can't seem to grasp his responsibility in his interactions with the Muslim world. So now we have an Ambassador murdered and his and Hillary Clinton's response is tepid and apologetic. What has the place come too?
So into the breach we see Mitt Romney, Obama's opponent in the upcoming November election, put his cards on the table about the murders in Libya. And the press, those dictation experts for Obama, will have none of it. How could he even think about telling the American people about his view on this they say, Isn't there some "rule" that differences in foreign policy by Americans end at the "water's edge"? How could Romney publicly disagree with the President on this? Well, it looks to me like Romney is right on this and Obama is wrong and Americans need to hear it.
The water's edge used to be an unwritten policy honored by all. But our old pal William Clinton changed that as he did with other traditions practiced by retired Presidents. He started mouthing off about every little thing and ol" Jimmy Carter jumped in and the tradition was blown to smithereens. Those two loud mouths couldn't help themselves and we all got to see and read their opinions on everything "Bush" for the last ten or twelve years. And the lamestream media was so excited about these traditions being broken (only old Republicans could be so "traditional") that they duly transcribed every deed and every word. Hell, Clinton was getting $100,000 a speech and telling people all over the planet how wrong Bush and his foreign policy were no good. Carter too.
But now the lamestreams favorite failure is in charge and they are outraged the Mitt Romney has a differing view than Obama on the foreign policy issue and he should just "shutup" and let Obama alone. Yeah sure I say, what is good for the goose. Obama and Hillary are giving the Muslims too many breaks. They don't seem to understand you give those thugs any slack and they come back and blow you up and murder innocents. It seems they are in to the appeasement strategy again. This never works in the long term because human nature is to achieve hegemony over others. Whether in daily individual life or as a country. Russia and Iran are good examples. Our foreign policy encourages them to thumb their nose at us and the civilized world.
Russia supports the scum Assad in Syria while he slaughters his own people and because Obama and Clinton are weak, Putin just keeps pushing. Iran and the little Hitler, Ahmadinejad (and the Mullahs of course) could care less about our foreign policy and phony outrages against them and their nuclear endeavors.
So into the appeasement vacuum created by the Obama Administration comes Romney to give some perspective on American values and our responsibility to deal with murdering scum. I say thanks to Romney. He reaffirmed our historic positions on these kinds of outrages. The Teddy Roosevelt strategy if you will. And it is important. The big stick was put away by Obama and Clinton and Romney is prodding them to get it out of the closet (hell, they let everything else out of the closet!) and use it. Sometimes America has to smack the killers with the stick. Obama is too weak, Clinton is simply a fan of Palestinians and does not want to rile them. Romney is right on this one and the lamestreams are so in the tank for Obama they can't see their folly.
One more reason to kick "O" and Co. to the curb
ReplyDeleteis the comment "Americans’ criticism of Islam as an “abuse” of the nation’s First Amendment.
This has been said more than once, in various forms. "O" said close to the same thing when protests in front of the White House a while back.
"O" has coddled and empowered our enemies.
He was all for the "take over" of Egypt.
Now they hate us more than ever. The same goes for Libya, and look what happened.
Now lets hear from our Lefties how this is Bush's fault, and how "O" has done such a great job in foreign policy.
Isn't this what he got the Nobel peace prize for? ( in advance)
Now how do you like these apples?
ReplyDeleteOur troops guarding the Egypt embassy were not permitted to carry ammo.
" here soldier, carry this empty weapon just for looks. we don't trust you
with live ammo." So who is calling these shots? Barney Fife?
Walt, Obama was sleeping nd could not be disturbed just like Hitler was not disturbed when D-Day took place. Outcomes the same, defeat.
ReplyDeleteWalt, who are you arguing with?
ReplyDeleteLOL. "arguing"? Can you get anymore pathetic?
DeleteYou see,, I know you and others come by just to see what been written.
You can't help yourselves. Just because LIBS like yourself don't have the nuts to respond and getting your butt handed to you, won't stop me from posting facts for all to see.
You lone post ( devoid of anything of value) is proof enough.
It just took a while. Now go back and whine to your Libby friends.
And once again time proves me right. I said a long time ago, "O" had no clue about what he was doing in the Middle East. I said well over a year ago the the Muslim Bro hood was bad news, and so was the "Arab Spring". But Lefties just had to say otherwise.
Yup,,, I told you so......
First of all I am a conservative so I have no clue why you assumed that I was a lib. I am just wonder why you made comments like "Now how do you like these apples?" when the only people who have said anything are you and todd because that is something you would say to someone you were arguing with or didn't like and no one else has commented.
DeleteMy apologies. ( I think) There has been another "Anonymous" who is a hard core LIB that likes to prowl this site.
DeleteMostly the anonymous are lefty nuts so it is easy to make the error. If it is an error.
DeleteFirst it was wedding gifts "O" wanted you to send his way.
ReplyDeleteNOW,, it's " hold a yard sale, and send the proceeds to me"
Now this is desperation at it's finest.
Who was that guy that loved polls? Here ya' go.
ReplyDeleteMitt Romney has cleared the 50% mark again in the battleground state of North Carolina despite the presence of the Democratic National Convention there little over a week ago.
The latest Rasmussen Reports telephone survey of Likely North Carolina Voters shows Romney with 51% support to President Obama’s 45%. One percent (1%) likes some other candidate in the race, and three percent (3%) are undecided.
obama is screwed because he has lost NC and we all know that NC is the deciding state in presidential elections....or wait is Ohio more important? or wait what about Florida I seem to remember that maybe that is the most important state....for some reason I am starting to think that no one cares about NC except walt....
ReplyDeleteHow do you like them apples?
DeleteWell Jimmy, If I were a liberal trying to past the logo on Mitt "Mitt shoots before he aims" it probably wouldn't stick. There might be other conservatives that could stick to but it wasn't directly in the context of politics; it had more to do with buckshot.
