I agree, Rush was talking about this the other day.

:This is what happens when the United States abdicates its role as leader of the free world. This is what happens when a bunch of leftist idealists and theorists get in power and think the United States is the problem in the world, the United States is the focus of evil in the world and its military. The United States has run roughshod over the rest of the world, and the United States needs to be cut down to size. So we’re gonna get the United States out of the world. We have no business being there. It’s none of our business. What’s over there is not ours. We have no right to it, and we’re gonna clear out, and we have. We pulled out of Iraq without stabilizing it. Obama inherited a stable Iraq. He pulled out. Ditto Afghanistan.

Now there’s ISIS. There was no ISIS before Obama, and there was not an ISIS for the first year or two of Obama. Now we’ve got a civil war in Syria. When Bush was in office the left used to run around bleating about Darfur and the Sudan and demanding that we do something about it. How dare we look at these horrible pictures of suffering people and not do anything about it. Well, now that we have abandoned all of these areas, where are the George Clooneys of the world all of a sudden demanding we do something when his president is the one essentially responsible for this because we are pulling out of these places. We’re leaving these unstable places more unstable and dangerous. They’re an economic disaster area.

Look at what we did in supporting the Arab Spring, the Muslim Brotherhood, the Middle East is on fire now, civil war in Syria, Benghazi, we even got touched by it. Libya is an absolute hellhole and a mess. Egypt is on the way. And you cannot discuss this without bringing into it the European Union. I don’t know how many of you have traveled to Europe. It used to be that you needed a passport. If you went from France to Great Britain, you needed a passport when you entered a new country. Every country you entered you had to show your passport.

You don’t anymore. The European Union, trying to emulate the United States of America in this giant coalition of European nations under one government, which is also a disaster. Hello, Greece. There aren’t any borders as such in that regard. So if you fly into Paris you can go anywhere after that in Europe without a passport. Well, this is made to order for refugees. All they have to do is storm one border, one outlying border on the perimeter, such as Italy or Greece, which is what they are doing. All they’ve gotta do is get past one border and there’s no stopping them.”

Rush got the EU “emulating the United States” wrong. They are emulating the USSR in their form of government in Brussels.
