Today, Hillsdale College's Kirby Center for Constitutional Studies and Citizenship hosted John R. Bolton, Former U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations, for their monthly First Principles on First Fridays lecture series in Washington, D.C.

And in his talk he delivered a report card on President Obama's Foreign Policy, giving him an "absent."

Absent? It’s a whole lots worse than absent!

Bolton’s memory needs some refreshing.

Definitely a wrong grade.

In fact Obama deserves nothing more than an F as he has been very engaged in the world to this country’s detriment. His foreign policy reflects that engagement by encouraging our nation’s enemies that they have nothing to fear: no attempts to make us energy independent and every attempt to push away and isolate Israel promoting some kind of wishful alliance against Iran with the Saudis and the Egyptians. How laughable.

He has taken every opportunity to push allies to the side and elevate those who have been in the vanguard of undermining us. This crafty front man deserves an F for a fake and a faulty foreign policy.

No John, he’s present, not absent. ...present and actively working to weaken the U.S. in every sphere.
