George Bush and Barrack Obama ended up in the same barber shop. Each being worked on by a different barber, not a word was spoken. The barbers were even afraid to start a conversation, for fear it would turn to politics.
As the barbers finished their shaves, the one who had Obama in his chair reached for the aftershave. Obama was quick to stop him saying, No thanks, my wife Michelle will smell that and think I’ve been in a whorehouse all day.
The second barber turned to Bush and said, How about you sir? Bush replied, Go ahead; my wife has no idea what the inside of a whorehouse smells like.
LOL, good one!
According to the media, absolutely nothing that has happened during the Obama years is his fault.
Should have kept dropping bombs until it stopped twitching, there was nothing worth saving.
.... All that one has to do to control these so called Useful Idiots is to appeal to their emotions and their need for fairness. It's like a drug to them ... they cannot move outside those parameters of enlightened existence. They need to continually feed upon those things to make themselves feel good.
..... This is why trying to reason with them and trying to have an intelligent discussion with them is so frustrating ..... they just can't understand consequences for improper actions.
The surge worked. For theater it had great effect!
Japan and Germany had to have thousands of troops to not only deter the Soviets, but to deter a counter insurgency that would certainly have happened had we high tailed it out of Europe & Asia after 1945 or even 1955.
It is all but common knowledge that the minimum time needed to win a counter insurgency war is 16 years and it takes another twenty to make the new government stable and pacify the populace.
There wasn’t one member of the military above buck Private that didn’t know a withdrawal would invite a blood bath. The military leaders pleaded with Obama to leave at least a token force of 5,000 military advisers. That was down from a requested 25,000 troops as a permanent stable force to maintain our bases and continue to train and advise the Iraqi army.
Evil doers take advantage of weak leaders and no one has been a weaker leader on foreign affairs than Obama.
If that isn’t the case, please point to ONE ally that we have better relations with today than we had in 2008. Show us one area of the globe that is more peaceful and under less threat than in 2008.
There isn’t one.
Middle East is in ruins
Iraq is lost! Defeat snatched from the jaws of victory. The ISIS head hackers are sixty miles from Baghdad!
Iran is nuking up. Full speed, soon with Obama’s blessing.
Yemen is gone, literally weeks after Obama pointed to it as a great success of his policies,
Saudi Arabia will purchase dozens of North Korean Nukes within weeks of Iran going nuclear. They are already in discussions. The inbred Saudi’s sure as Hell don’t want to look a nuclear Iran in the face naked.
Israel will more than likely preemptively strike Iran with its’ nuclear arsenal in order to stave off the loss of another six million Jewish lives without a fight. Netanyahu all but said as much publicly at the UN .
Assad in Syria is killing anyone that isn’t Alawite. Often with Saddam’s former weapons of mass destruction that he graciously accepted from his fellow Baathist to keep them out of the Americans’ hands.
North Africa is in shambles. Sub Saharan Africa is also a mess, more than usual. Even South Africa has now slipped into a third World sewer.
Russia is on its muscle gobbling up Georgia & Ukraine wile threatening its’ near neighbors. They have stepped up their supplying of Iran with nuclear material and knowledge under the guise of building power plants. They are threatening Western Europe with their vast supply of natural gas. Without Russia’s natural gas, Europe freezes in January. Meanwhile Obama refuses to further increase our fracking by banning new permits on Federal lands and the continental shelf.
A supply of LNG from America would dent Russia’s aggression by eliminating their hard currency customers in Western Europe by making them OUR hard currency customers for LNG. God knows we could use the money!
Korea and China are running rough shod over the Pacific Rim. Japan is so scared they have started rearming and talking about going nuclear. The Philipines, Taiwan, Indonesia, Malaysia, even Australia are frightened to death of China and its’ surging military and Korea and its’ inbred hermit king.
Even our own Hemisphere is less safe and less free than it was in 2008.
By every measure Obama has been a disaster for US foreign policy and the cause of human freedom and don’t look now on the domestic front, according to the latest figures, we have once again slipped from anemic recovery into recession.
Yeah, it’s not Obama’s fault - he didn’t make any real effort to negotiate a status of forces agreement and admitted he didn’t want anything there at all during the debate with Romney. Then when ISIS started preparing and moving its assets for an invasion, he did nothing. They could have been stopped in their tracks well before they got entrenched within all of these cities and mostly avoided this entire situation. But no, that wasn’t done. And yes, that is this administration’s fault - nobody else made the decision for them not to act.
The Kurds have not been adequately assisted either - and they are strong, organized fighters willing and able to defend themselves if the administration would have just authorized the sale of the arms they were seeking to have. It’s embarrassing and inexcusable.
This is so embarrassingly stupid. Any serious diplomatic effort would have been successful - Obama admitted in the debate with Romney he did not want the 10,000 troops there! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tErgLS5m_BU - here it is right here.
