Try making sense of President Obama’s foreign policy and you might start wondering what it is that guides this Administration. Most of our leaders have followed a few guiding principles, whether it be promoting freedom and democracy, containing the spread of communism, or resisting terrorism. Whether right or wrong as judged by history, each American President has sent a clear message to the world that America was squarely on the side of freedom. What about Obama?
Candidate Obama stressed that he would change the “failed policies of the past eight years.” He said he would do this on the economy and we have seen the deficit explode. He said he would do this on foreign policy; are we now seeing the foreign policy of the United States implode? That platitude from the campaign is the only guiding principal we have to work with in analyzing current foreign policy decisions. But what happens when you adopt a platitude as policy?
Let’s look at the results of Obama’s foreign policy team so far. We have the “Spring 2009 Apology Tour.” Our president bowed to a King. America now supports the moral equivalency argument between Israel and Hamas (somehow bombing civilians is on the same shelf as building houses). In Honduras we are supporting a would-be dictator and slapping sanctions on an already impoverished country. In Iraq we have followed the strategy put in place by the “failed policy makers” and it is working. In Afghanistan we are delaying a decision to either commit to the action or keep the status quo, and all the while our casualties mount.

Except domestically. There he behaves like a street punk with his gang behind him.
Apparently he is going to pass on a chance to apologize for winning the Cold War by sending The Idiot Biden to Germany for the anniversary of the fall of the Berlin wall. Maybe The Idiot Biden will apologize for him.
In Obama’s case it is...”walk swishily!”
Yep, the scumbag Ubama will never have an apology for the working, taxpaying, traditional American families he is out to destroy.
The Obama doctrine...Let go of my eggo whoops ego
He doesn’t want to be there because someone might praise Reagan which would be intolerable for him. Nobody can be raised to the level of the ObamaMessiah in front of him.
Plus the thought of all those dead East Germans might cause him to go off-message.
That’s a pretty good photo essay.
Obama's big shtick.
