Obama is the worst President in the history of the Republic.

He is an anti-American marxist with strong religious underpinnings to Islam. Both the Bushes were not much better, and Clinton was too busy with Monica and defending the freedom of Moslems in Bosnia-Herzogovina to care. His administration put more pressure on Israel to cave in to unrealistic demands by Arafat than any other President besides Obama.

Reagan helped Sadaam against Iran because the Iranian Revolution declared war on the US and took our embassy people hostage. It was felt by the state department that allowing the two nations to fight each other would reduce the tensions in the area overall. Anyone with a brain could look at the way Iran is exporting all kinds of terror now and see that it worked.

Those who blew up the USS Cole had nothing done to them, as Clinton was a coward. Just as when they blew up the World Trade Center basement, he sent teams lawyers to the work, instead of rolling up his sleeves and punching back. Had he taken action, 9-11 never, ever would have happened. And had he not cut our intelligence agencies in half and allowed these guys to move about unnoticed and set up their shops, again, 9-11 would have never happened. Clinton was a pacifist coward that made us appear weak to our enemies, and as a result they grew stronger and un-afraid of us, then attacked us.

Thank the pacifist sissy Billy Bob Clinton for all this that has happened.

The pro-democracy forces lost in Egypt. Has anyone paid attention?

The military and Muslim Brotherhood were on the same side.

Rapid elections will leave no time for the pro-democracy groups to organize before the election. Guess who is already organized? MB and the military.

“...Obama is the worst President in the history of the Republic...”

Obama is the worst President in history.
Obama is the worst President.
Obama is the worst.

I’m curious as to why the author left out Carter.

In my mind Carter lit the fire by mishandling Iran, and has fanned the flames ever since.

This is simple: exploit our own oil. All oil produced and used here is tax free on the profits. Problem solved.

Simple solution - Get our folks out of there, push the button and let God sort them out. (Think of it as rebooting the whole islamic mess.)

Well that's mighty big of you.

“Reagan also looses points for not bringing justice to Moammar Gadhafi after his Libyan agents blew-up Pan Am flight 103 killing all 259 on board and another 11 on the ground in December 1988.”

And, he was practically out of office by this point. I doubt they could put anything together in a month.

Oh, the Middle East is perfectly capable of messing itself up without any input from us. It seems the modus operandi of these type of diatribes is:

a) attribute to the U.S. an omnipotence which it doesn’t possess.
b) blame the U.S. for misusing it’s omnipotence.

Huh, I read this twice, no mention of Jimmah Carter.

Wonder why that is?

Love your tagline, and yes I agree. We needn’t fund those countries the supply oil and terrorists, we could use ours against them by simply refusing to buy it from them if they display barbarism or extremist tactics. We have enough to fuel our own country and then some!! We could even export to friendly countries who don’t wish to be a part of countries that hold their oil over our heads.

why is the biased corrupt media calling North Africa now the middle east too.
Just because they see no black people there does not mean it is not Africa.

Hell do these people actually know anything or are they covering for obama too much to actually understand where places are when he gets into a war while on vacation in Rio

whatever arsenal Saddam had came from the billions of dollars in aid and technology that was provided by the Reagan administration.

Let's not let the fact that this is completely untrue stand in the way of making a point.

G. W. Bush’s biggest failure was his unwillingness to stand up against the tsunami of lies from the Rat party and the MSM.
