GREENSBURG, Pa. (AP) - Barack Obama says he would return the country to the more "traditional" foreign policy efforts of past presidents.
Those presidents include such as George H.W. Bush, John F. Kennedy and Ronald Reagan.
Obama's comments came at a town hall event in Greensburg, Pennsylvania.
He praised President Bush's father for the way he handled the Persian Gulf War: with a large coalition and carefully defined objectives.
The Illinois senator has started a 6-day bus tour through Pennsylvania, the largest remaining primary prize in the contest with Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton for the Democratic nomination.
“I’m going to be like Bush and Reagan!”
What was that? Did you hear it too? It sounded just like a witch laughing... Keep talking, Obama, you make yourself more and more unelectable to the wackaloons who support you.
Foreign policy like the Bay of Pigs, Granada and the First Gulf War? Sure, Barry.
Oh and getting involved in Vietnam?
I fear Obama learned the lessons preached by Wright, who is a black, racist, bigoted, separatist.
God help us all if he or Hillary is elected.
“Senator, I served with Jack Kennedy. I knew Jack Kennedy. Jack Kennedy was a friend of mine. Senator, you’re no Jack Kennedy.” - Lloyd Bentsen
Nice tag line :-)
Obama’s getting desperate, appealing to the Great Icon of the Democratic Party.
The problem is that JFK as an icon better represents the Republicans. Remember - he favored tax cuts to stimulate the economy. He had respect for our military, especially our special ops force. He was also a bit of a wildcard - Bay of Pigs, Operation Mongoose ...
Is Nobama really that stupid?
Be like Kennedy and Reagan?
I would think that both would likely have done pretty much the same things that George Biush has done under the same circumstances..
I guess when you are an empty suit you have the ability to say anything at anytime and it doesn’t really matter since you do not really matter..........
Yeah right!
From those he choses as friends that he is comfortable with, I would see strong bonds made with dictators (especially the black dictators).
And, I just cannot see him standing up for America. He would give away America.
We must remember his votes, realize that words do not a leader make, words do not make decisions but character choses the direction a leader goes.
When his character overlooks racist hatred against America and instead of speaking up for America, speaks up for the racist hatred, it tells us what he will stand up for. And it is not the America we love.
“I fear Obama learned the lessons preached by Wright, who is a black, racist, bigoted, separatist.”
Have you seen the quotes from his books? He has learned well. Hannity played clips of Obama reading from his book. Obama clearly doesn’t like whites.
Hugh Hewitt along with Mark Steyn also discussed BHO’s book @ Townhall...his rscism is proudly recounted in his own words...absolutely should make him unelectable but who knows?
Those presidents include such as George H.W. Bush, John F. Kennedy and Ronald Reagan.
O'Bama is going to invade Panama, Cuba, Grenada?
The empty suit has been endorsed by the mime, our very own Senator Bob Casey, Jr., you know the dumb-as-a-box-of-rocks guy who faces such intense competition from Patricia Bin Murray, Barbara Boxer and Tom Carper.
Fixed it.
Another hollow promise.
He will be in lockstep with the Black Nationalist feelings. We will withdraw from the international scene.
He will be in lockstep with Ron Paul’s Islolationist policies.
He will cause more harm in Middle East Instability.
The terrorist will rejoice when we retreat.
They will regroup, and rearm...and attack again.
Majority of the American public don’t understand that.
It’s frightening.
Can you see this in the future when Obama’s Administration has to kowtow to terrorist and NK unless demands?

BWWHAHAHAHAHAA!!!
That would be a dubious honor...
IMHO, Gulf war 1 was an failure because it lead directly to Gulf war 2. Just like WW1 was the principle reason WW2 got started...
