Obama: U.S. nat’l security strategy to be based on education, clean energy, rights for terrorists
Wash Examiner ^ | 5/23/10 | Byron York

Posted on 05/23/2010 10:01:27 PM PDT by pissant

President Obama’s speech at West Point Saturday is the most sweeping statement yet of his plan to create a national security policy emphasizing education, clean energy, green jobs, anti-climate change measures, the granting of full American constitutional rights to accused terrorists, and “engagement” with America’s enemies.

Obama is set to release his first formal full-scale national security strategy in the coming week. At West Point, he told the Class of 2010 that the United States must “see the horizon” beyond the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. To reach that horizon, he explained, “we must pursue a strategy of national renewal and global leadership” and “build the sources of America’s strength and influence.”

In Obama administration parlance, phrases like “national renewal” often mean far-reaching domestic programs, and at West Point the president linked three domestic goals to national security. First, there is education, so American children can “compete in an age where knowledge is capital, and the marketplace is global.” Second, there is clean energy, to “power new industry and unbound us from foreign oil and preserve our planet.” Third, there is scientific innovation that “unlocks wonders as unforeseen to us today as the microchip and the surface of the moon were a century ago.”

You know you’ve reached the bottom of the barrel when even the French think of you with contempt. The French? Hell....used to be, the whole world had contempt for the French. Now....thanks to Zero, it’s the USA.

This is the old liberal crap about how “strengthening our Public Schrools” or “showing our support for the role of Arts in our communities” contributes to our National Security just as much as, or more than, a new aircraft carrier.

It expired, so I use the copy at my homepage here on FR. It was a site called “Pesky Emotional Republican” or some such.
