Scaring Them Already

Much of Barack Obama’s foreign policy doctrine hinges on the notion that he will be able to “repair” the image other nations now have of America. This line, which his supporters continue to iterate, is that a “new face“–one that looks different, and behind which sits a brain with a great understanding of others–will allow America to fix its PR problems abroad. However, if recent newspaper articles from outside the U.S. are any indication, Obama’s platform on trade signals that his presidency might not successfully accomplish this much-vaunted task.

Someone should ask this plenipotentiary potentate of policy, “If America’s so bad, and it’s reputation so damaged, then why in hell is every third worlder this side of the globe desperately trying to get here?”......

Bush’s Fine Speech, and Obama’s Fine Whine

President Bush Blasts Appeasers: Hussein ObamaMessiaHamas Campaign Goes Ballistic!

Hysterical Whiner, Hussein ObamaMeshiaHamas cries/moans and screams that Bush falsely accuses him of appeasement and whines, “I’m not an appeaser!”

Obama: "I will cut investments in unproven missile defense systems, ....I will not weaponize space... I will slow development of future combat systems... I will institute a 'Defense Priorities Board' to ensure the quadrennial defense review is not used ..."

Then, there will be peace in our time without the evil republicans causing war!

My change is good for Muslims, Islamofascists, Black Racists, and Chrislims. $crew the Christians and real Jews!

Obama is a small part of a new American industry that makes its living by denigrating the United States of America. Just what is the opinion of the USA around the world, in reality, not the nonsense of the left. The USA is the country that the “poor, tired, huddled masses yearning to be free” chose as their destination.
How many people are risking their lives to reach the paradise of Cuba? China? North Korea? Venzuala? Zimbabwe? or a hundred other “people’s republics”?
When natural disaster strikes, it is the US that rushes forward with critical supplies, food and medicine. When the dire need arises it is the US that is on the scene, a hand outstretched in friendship.
The opinion of foreign despots is worth NOTHING. The opinion of radical left locals is worth nothing. Those who rail against what America stands for are the very FIRST to yell bloody murder when what they perceive as their “rights as Americans” are somehow compromised.
These people deserve to live in the countries they hold up as “standards”.

Never apologize for them.
Never appease them.
Never forget.
