So how's Obama's "leading from behind" working for ya?
It's working fine for the rogues of the world.
North Korea just announced a new sub-launched ICBM, allowing it to send nuke-tipped missiles anywhere in the world. As for the mullahs of Iran, they now control the strategic port of Aden, the chokepoint to the Red Sea, and they already have land-based anti-ship missiles to threaten oil traffic in the Strait of Hormuz. When rusty Iranian naval ships wheel around and charge U.S. Navy vessels, our ships retreat. When the mullahs steal a container ship under U.S. protection, we do nothing. Every time ISIS posts another gruesome human butchery with no punishment by civilized nations teenage kids around the world discover their inner sociopath and yearn to join the bloodbath.
We are the Weak Horse, for sure.
Obama's Alinsky playbook says that the perception of power is more important than power itself. That works for weakness, too. Obama's endless parade of cringing retreats speaks louder than our actual military clout. Power without the will to use it means nothing.
But now there's a shift in the wind.
Conservatives are winning elections in the U.K., Australia, Canada, and Israel. France's President Hollande is promising to help the Saudis and their allies, abandoned by Obama. Norway has actually expelled thousands of Muslim criminals, followed by a "surprising" drop in the violent crime rate.

Leadership?
Ha!!
Don’t look at US ... we’re fresh out!
Be careful what you wish for.
Scripture says one day an awesome leader will emerge, and everyone will think he’s the answer...for a while.
It appears the world’s people are being prepped for this man.
History keeps repeating itself. In the 1930’s, the world was “HUNGRY” for a “LEADER”, and guess what they got? It started in Asia, when the Japanese excersized “TRUE LEADERSHIP”, by attacking their neighbors, ending up with bombing PEARL HARBOR. In Europe, the people were so “HUNGRY” for strong leaders. There was first “IL DUCE” of Italy, then Adolph Hitler of Germany. There was also Joseph Stalin in the USSR, but at that time he wasn’t a danger to the rest of the world. As it stands now, the world has no leader, especially the WEST. Any “TRUE LEADER” like a Winston Churchill, is immediately branded as a “WAR MONGER”. We are truly headed for one hell of a war.
ps I don't mean I support his policies. Just the fact that he was a manly man.
The Progressives want “leadership”, but they don’t know what real “LEADERSHIP” is. LEADERSHIP is not spelled H-i-l-l-a-r-y. or O-b-a-m-a. The feely good kind of leadership, isn’t.
Is an oxymoron used by a moron.
What we need is for our ‘leaders’ to leave us the hell alone.
You’re exactly right.
We have too damn *MUCH* leadership. Right or left wing.
The media eat leaders for breakfast, and the Left assaults anyone sufficiently responsible to make sound decisions and follow up.
Who the heck wants to be a leader these days!
