Every time Obama goes and apologizes for our supposed crimes, he emboldens the terrorists. In effect, he’s telling them that they are absolutely correct in their desire to destroy the US.

In liberal la-la land, blaming America for every bad act ever committed throughout history, and then going around apologizing for being so horrible, will cause everyone to realize that we won’t be belligerant any more, and therefore, we’re about to embark on an era of world peace.
