Bush always erred on the side of Protecting America’s citizens from its enemies. Obama seems bent on reversing that and making his judgements by erring on the side that protects America’s enemies instead.

And the funny thing is that in doing this, Obama will not elevate America's reputation to even the slightest degree. Those who hate us will fear us less and mock us more, concluding that we're stupid, a "paper tiger." Those who esteem us will sleep less well at night. Not one single word of appreciation will be uttered outside our borders in appreciation of this gesture. The response will range from "long overdue" to "too little too late" to "a much needed downpayment on a total overhaul of America's aggressive posture of intimiation and strong-arm cowboy tactics."

Exactly..... “America’s aggressive posture” Gotta love it, nearly 3000 American Citizens that did nothing more then go to work died on 911. Their Deaths produced by 19 men that believed in an ideology of hate so grand that they would kill themselves in order to inflict the most damage possible against their enemy. How does Obama rationalize that?

Obama says we all need to have skin in the game.. and “Do unto others...”... Obama has never once did anything that wasn’t good for Obama.... LOL... we are in for one heck of a ride.... So as Obama makes all this grand change to the “Bad” Bush policies that make us so weak in the world, what possibly can he say to the American People after the Next terror attack on our soil?

How do you appease an enemy that doesn’t want what you have, but only wants you dead?
