Victor Davis Hanson:
".......There will be no Obama Doctrine. More likely we will see a doubling down on reducing U.S. influence — with the end of reshaping a too-prominent global profile, which itself was supposedly a result of unfairly acquired advantage."
Full article: With his presidency in a tailspin, Carter radically changed course. Will Obama do the same?
To lead from behind by weakening the US; militarily, economically and morally.
The left has been saying for 20 years that America is evil and our power, influence and economic impact on the rest of the world must be reduced. Is it really a shock that once in charge they would seek to do just that?
The thing the left expected was that once they were in charge all foreign problems would vanish because those problems were the direct result of America’s power, influence and economic impact. Since those problems have not gone away they conclude that America is still too strong and still has too much influence.
Good article. Thanks for posting, MarkO.
The Obama regime has never had a clue regarding what the foreign policy should be, beyond Obama saying something like ‘if the winds change, I will side with the Muslims’ during his first term apology tour.
He’s selected Hillary as SoS, and she gets a grade of F because she has no positives during her term and permitted the killings in Bengahzi by not providing security.
He now has John F’n Kerry as SoS who has no respect by other countries and continues to oppose Israel’s rights.
Why has this idiot POTUS placed several homosexual Ambassadors in Mulim countries? The one in Lybia is obvious, but later a lezbian was appointed somewhere in the Middle East as well. Others appointed to countries had no knowledge of those countries... they were just big money donors to his campaigns. Obama sucks.
Who woke Cal up?
Our president is a pussy.
