(CNSNews.com) – President Obama is on track to accomplish in his first year of office what President Carter took three years to achieve – portray the United States as a “confused and soft power,” an Asian security expert charged after North Korea reported a nuclear weapons test Monday.
Citing its approach to North Korea, Iran, South Asia, the Middle East, China and Burma, veteran India-based analyst Bahukutumbi Raman said the new administration was giving the impression that it lacks the will to respond decisively if "problem states" act in ways detrimental to U.S. interests and international peace and security.

I’ve always said that Obama is Carter on steroids.
More like Estrogen...Jimmy Carter on estrogen...

Not to mention a Secretary of State who thinks it's funny to give a misspelled gag gift to the Russians, and then goes to another foreign country and says, with a very smug grin on her face, "Never waste a good crisis."
Why should our enemies take us seriously?
Obama is the kind of leader that results from having a one-party system. (The McCain/Pelosi/Powell Party)
Obummer is the kind of leader when the American electorate listens to the MSM and has their head up their collective ass.
If it was estrogen then obama would be less agressively destroying the U.S. obama is destroying the U.S. faster than Jimmah Cahter ever dreamed about. I do not think Cahter was naive, I think he was a full fledged communist idiot out to take us down.
