An Ol’ Broad’s Ramblings
Obama’s Flawed Reality
He views Iran’s nuclear threat as “tiny.” He’d meet with its leader, who is pledged to Israel’s destruction. His adviser wants Israel to disarm. Clearly, Barack Obama is running for Jimmy Carter’s second term.
I keep hearing that McFeingold would be Bush III. Given the fact John is not really much like Bush, but more like a good chunk of Dhimmis, I find this annoying. Although, truthfully, Bush was never anywhere near as conservative as I’d have prefered, McCain, is even less so. In walks Barack HUSSEIN Obama, the darker skinned Jimmah. sigh….
If we’ve been particularly hard on Sen. Obama in recent days, it’s because he’s a gift that keeps on giving. He consistently demonstrates his lack of qualifications to be commander in chief based on experience, worldview and judgment.
I constantly see his ‘worldview’ as one seen through the eyes of the mentally disabled. And I wouldn’t want a Down’s person in the White House either, although, I might prefer him or her, to Obama. (Apologies to any Down’s person. I think you are a LOT smarter than Hussein!)
His latest foray into dangerous naivete came while campaigning Sunday in Pendleton, Ore. He told the assembled multitude: “Iran? Cuba? Venezuela? — these countries are tiny compared to the Soviet Union. They don’t pose a threat to us the way the Soviet Union posed a threat to us.”
Hey doofus! It doesn’t matter what size the country is! It’s what size the freakin’ BOMB is, that matters!
He went on to defend his policy of “aggressive personal diplomacy” and called for “tough, disciplined and direct diplomacy. That’s what Kennedy did. That’d what Reagan did.”
I’d say somebody needs to do a little more searching before making such statements to “the unwashed masses”.
Kennedy in his inaugural address pledged that “we shall pay any price, bear any burden, meet any hardship, support any friend, oppose any foe, in order to assure the survival and the success of liberty.” That doesn’t sound like Obama’s policy on Iraq or anywhere else.
Uh, no…..no, it doesn’t.
Yes, Kennedy talked to Khrushchev. But the Soviet leader came away from that summit so unimpressed with the young and untested American president that the following year he put nuclear missiles in Cuba targeted on American cities. Kennedy was forced to blockade Cuba and risk nuclear war.
Were there tea and crumpets at that particular meeting? Let’s see, Kennedy: young, inexperienced. Obama: young, inexperienced. Yep, but that’s where the similarities should come to an end. Kennedy cut taxes, Obama wants to raise them.
Obama said that Reagan’s “direct negotiation” with Gorbachev “over time allowed the kind of opening that brought down the Berlin Wall.” What brought down the Berlin Wall, and the Soviet Union, was Reagan’s unrelenting resistance to and confrontation with the “evil empire” based on his strategy of “we win, they lose.” That was how Reagan “negotiated” with Gorbachev.
I bet Hussein had to wash him mouth out with soap after invoking the name of Reagan. But, yet again, his history is flawed.
Yes, Reagan talked with Gorbachev. But he resisted the Soviet advance from Nicaragua to Grenada to Afghanistan. He put Pershing missiles in Europe. He launched the Strategic Defense Initiative and said “nyet” when Gorbachev wanted us to deal it away. When Reagan said, “Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall,” the end of the Cold War already was a fait accompli.
Reagan would have had NO problem slapping down the Soviet Union if the need arose. Luckily for us, he was an extremely strong leader, so it wasn’t necessary.
Obama wants to talk with Iran. But the question he refuses to answer is what he’d tell Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. Obama dislikes being called an appeaser. But would he say to Iran: No deal unless you disown and disarm Hezbollah? We doubt it. More likely he’d sacrifice a country such as Lebanon to Tehran’s ambitions in a modern-day Munich.
He might not like being called an appeaser, but that’s exactly what he is. No preconditions? I don’t bloody well think so! If Hussein wants to kiss Ahmabooboo’s hind end, he can do it as a civilian…NOT as the President of the United States!
