“I don’t mean to sound like a party pooper here, because I think there are many things that the Obama folks have gotten right on foreign policy, but I come to this issue with the view that America desperately needs to re-think its national security strategy - to rebuild civilian agencies, de-emphasize the role of the military, rebuild the global governance architecture, define US interests less broadly and usher in a new restrained and more modest approach to foreign policy. Very little that I’ve seen so far makes me think that any of this is happening as quickly or as decisively as it should. But of course that’s just one man’s opinion - I’ll be curious to hear what my blog mates and commenters think about all this . .”
Dear Mikey,
Fear not. You are not a party pooper. You are the sh!t!
