White House leadership: Reagan on KAL 007 vs. Obama on MH17
Fox News ^ | July 18,2014 | K.T. McFarland

Reagan followed strong words with even stronger actions. He accelerated work on the Star Wars missile defense system. He urged Congress and the American people to continue the Reagan defense buildup. He shored up our European allies and encouraged them to stand up to the Communists. And he understood that the Soviet economy depended on high oil prices, so he set about to bankrupt them. Six years after the Soviets shot down the Korean airliner, their empire collapsed.

This is Barack Obama’s chance to make history. Will he seize the moment and reverse course? If so, he will restore defense spending. He will take back all those pink slips he’s just sent to members of the military. He will reinstate the defense missile shield for Poland and the Czech Republic. He will rally our European allies to stand up to Putin. And he will accelerate American energy independence efforts, so that we and our European allies are no longer subject to Russian energy blackmail.

Now is the time of Obama’s testing. Will history make him a great man? Will he rise up to be a great man who makes history? Or will he just play out the clock for his last two years in office, hobnobbing with celebrities, playing golf with moguls, and living the good life?

If so, history will soon move past him, and he will spend the next thirty years as a former president coming in first in polls for the worst president in modern American history.

There is NO comparison between President Ronald W. Reagan and the FRIC (Fund Raiser In Chief) that we have now. NONE! I wonder why the Indians aren’t pissed off about Barry calling himself “chief”.

They got this wrong. Yes, it is Ø's chance to make history. He has and is seizing not only the moment, but his 8 years, to be remembered in the history of eternity to have brought down the most exceptional 5000 year leap of all time.

Quite an accomplishment if he succeeds.

Even when Americans are brutally slaughtered in a tragedy like this, it sticks in his craw to express the slightest outrage at the death of Americans. The best he can exude is “global tragedy”.

The mere sight or sound of this prevaricating, egomaniacal, racist sociopath should send any thinking American into fits of uncontrollable nausea.

He is a walking talking abortion.

He doesn’t like to be told he HAS to do anything.

EVAR.

When he sees the loudest caterwauling comes from the right, it only induces in him determination to do the OPPOSITE thing.

Expect him to do NOTHING beyond the verbal remonstrance backtracking right after Jokey Speech.

He will be remembered in history in the same light as Stalin, Hitler, Mussolini, Castro, Pol Pot and other progressive heroes.
