[null and void]

Howie66 ~ There was a time where Japan could look at the United States as a close and trusted Ally, that they could count on IF things went South.

At the same time, China knew that the last thing that they wanted to do was start some crap with Japan, because they knew that we would take a very dim view of that.

Thanks to Obama, that is no longer the case.

GreenHornet ~ Absolutely correct. Because of Obama, our enemies no longer fear us, and our allies no longer trust us.

EVERYTHING obama does either:

a) Weakens America
b) Distances America's allies
c) Strengthens America's enemies
d) Serves Islam
e) Harms Israel
Or some combination of the above.

I have yet to have anyone raise a single substantive counter example in several years of posting this.

(Although AJFavish did point out that I missed "increases dependency on the government")

I agree with your list, 100%.

I think that it is pretty safe to say that Obama will NEVER do ANYTHING that would benefit America, the American People or the advancement of FREEDOM. To do so would go completely across his grain.

The sooner that he leaves office, the better for ALL concerned.
