The world is watching nervously to see what may happen in the quickly escalating confrontation between North Korea and South Korea. Any time "all-out nuclear war with a lunatic" is on the table, it really deserves our full attention.
Unless, of course, you're Barack Obama. His foreign policy toward North Korea (and anyone else with a bad attitude) has been a powerful one-two punch of apology and appeasement. And it's had a dramatic effect. Charles Krauthammer accurately, and brilliantly, describes the dangerous changes in the world as "the fruits of weakness," as despots test their power and - finding no resistance from the United States - push a little farther and a little farther to find out where the limits are...if any.
The enemies of freedom are enjoying a new renaissance of unrestricted power, while America's former friends are scurrying to make alliances with the dominant new players on the world stage...previously known as "the bad guys."
"All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing." Who could have ever thought that this grim warning would eventually be codified as American foreign policy?
Then what? Will he fart in our general direction?
ReplyDeleteI don't know about the rest of you but this above all other things about Obama ... (The lack of papers, the health care thing, cap n tax, etc..) but THIS; THIS TRULY SCARES THE SHIT OUT OF ME!
ReplyDeleteJoe, I agree with you. Used to be I thought Obama was simply foolish and naive in his foreign policy efforts. Now I fear his goals are much more menacing and have little to do with protecting U.S. interests. He seems to want America spanked (or worse).
ReplyDeleteReaders- It would be (barely) comforting to think the unrest in the world and the rise of anti-democratic powers is simply an unintended consequence of the president's "Rainbows n' Unicorns" foreign policy. But these "unintended consequences" seem to fit perfectly with the president's politics and world view. Hope n' Change believes that Barack Obama really does blame America for the world's woes, and has taken it upon himself (with the help of many willing liberals) to cripple this country.
ReplyDelete"Unintended consequences" is a misnomer in this case. What we are seeing are fully intended consequences. It is Obama's intention to cripple this country, and we are standing by, watching him do it. Unfortunately, we have entrusted the power of the most powerful office in the world to an arch enemy of this nation; this will not end well.
ReplyDeleteThis all came about because of wishful thinking on the part of the electorate, skillfully encouraged by the Obama campaign. During the campaign, he managed to say just about nothing, although he spoke many words. People heard all those words, and said to themselves, "he said just what I wanted," even though he did nothing of the sort. He was a totally empty suit, even before the election, but people were so blinded by foolish anger with GWB, that they allowed themselves to believe anything and everything. Now we are paying the price.
Dr.D- Amen.
ReplyDeleteBambi couldn't find his ass with both hands, a roadmap and a flashlight. He can take a bad situation and make it worse -- as a matter of fact that is pretty much what he does all the while throwing our money around like pixie dust.
ReplyDeleteThat said, "hate" was not in my vocabulary until this clown came on the scene and I don't like myself for that but this creepy little man is disgusting.
Buzz- "Hate" is not a word to be tossed around lightly. Neither should we be quick to apply it to a man instead of simply his policies. All that being said, after a year and a half of trying our best, we pretty much hate this POS.
ReplyDeleteSorry guys and gals, we can't really blame Obamma. He is just doing what he has done best since he was a State Senator, campaign. When a Community Organizer is elected to run a country who doesn't have the experience of an Alaskan Governor, it is what it is.
ReplyDeleteObama is a spineless annelid anti-gun, anti-american none US citizen muslim mole whose mission is to destroy America from within. OMG use to mean Oh My God, now days it means Obama Must Go -- any way you'd like.
