Naturally, the U.S. media is following the terrorist crimes in Mumbai, India, as well they should. But, the attacks seem to be the Old Media's only interest where it concerns India and Pakistan, of late, for they've completely ignored the several mistakes that Barack Obama has already made with his attempts at foreign policy with the two embattled nations.

Yawn. Bill Clinton got zero bad press regarding the Rwandan Genocide. Is anyone shocked that Hussein’s bungling of foreign affairs will also get zero coverage in the USA?

0bama is a walking, talking disaster looking for a place and time to happen.

The world will wish GWB was back in charge in less than a year. At the very least, they knew where he stood and what they could expect from him.

It is never a good sign when your enemies rejoice after an election.

These are some embarrassing stumbles on India and Pakistan and shows that Obama won’t be able to flash his dazzling smile and have the world's leaders just fall at the feet of The One happy to follow his policy ideas.

It sure seems like Obama's term in office began November 4th. Our President is George W. Bush but the media seems to have transferred the power to Obama as of three weeks ago, doing a great disservice to all of America.

Obama, frankly, is not smart enough to deal with something as complex as India Pakistan relations. Our only hope is that he is smart enough to realize this and surrounds himself with people capable of dealing with international crisis of this magnitude.

The media can’t blame Pres.Bush forever. Obama does’nt know squat without Axlerod pulling the strings.

As that traitor “the Reverend Wright” says, the chickens are coming home to roost.

Boy, are we gonna pay for the incompetence of the man child.

Obama is going to get a lot of people killed with his blunders while he is president.

“Our only hope is that he is smart enough to realize this and surrounds himself with people capable of dealing with international crisis of this magnitude.”

With his appointment of Sonal Shah, it looks like he can`t even surround himself with the right people.

Apparently, this is what the majority wanted. Let them waller in it and look out for themselves. The Bush administration offered a save haven for 7 years. If this “majority” wants to go out on a limb, they have chosen this idgit.

I’ve said that this country will miss Bush within a year as well. The media will continue to try to ignore this, but it’s going to get too big to ignore and the mistakes glaring. 0bama and the Demonrats are going to be a white flag to our enemies and rightfully so.

I just posted this on another thread.

I don’t know where to post my frustration with this, but Fox and Friends showed Obama’s response to the terror attacks this morning.

Um, he isn’t President yet. He isn’t President-Elect yet. Why are we turning to him for “comfort for the nation” as they put it?

I used to watch Fox and Friends every morning, but lately I’m just as sick of them as I am everyone else.

No, they will continue to put it as if Obama is trying to “fix” Bush’s blunders.

I despise this media and feel helpless to do anything about it.

Hillary as Sec. of State, yep that makes me feel better...

So far The Big O's choices have sent shivers down my spine.
