Talk loudly and promise you won't carry an arogant stick, and have no credibility when you carry it

SHAMBLES.
In what, 75 days?

Acts of contrition in Europe, no troops from NATO, scorn and derisive laughter from an Iran ever closer to working weapons, scorn and derisive laughter and launches from their employee n the NORK R&D Engineering Corporation of a nation, DISCUSSIONS about a watered down resolution in the UN (doesn't matter over what..THAT is the pattern), reaming Russia, China launching sub after ballistic missile subs while harassing our ocean surveillance ships at sea, and being unhelpful over Norkland, and publicly doubting our credit.

We respond to NONE of this.

And as we began under Bush we are alone in our actions, even though others have been attacked by the freaks as well. In this overseas contingency operation against man caused disasters (OCOAMCD) we have one ally whose populace seems a bit divided (Luton) as to whether THEIR men are righteously acting people, or war criminals, but either way they don't care soi much for us (must be our arrogance), and one ally who would stand with us head to toe, and we don't, at the govt level want too close.

While Obama seems to havea clue regarding AfPak his totally consonant other tunes reflect that he will not finish whatever turns out to be required there.

This completely EMBARASSMENT by a weak naive person despite the fig leaf of his mentioning anti americanism got results like this.,..the French will send 150 more trainers to Afghanistan, and take ONE Guantanamo prisoner.

We would be better off saying NOTHING and doing a few things.

He should stay home and concentrate on his takeover of american business which seems to be going better, although proving now, that he is dividing the nation as Bush never could have.

PEW:
For all of his hopes about bipartisanship, Barack Obama has the most polarized early job approval ratings of any president in the past four decades. The 61-point partisan gap in opinions about Obama's job performance is the result of a combination of high Democratic ratings for the president -- 88% job approval among Democrats -- and relatively low approval ratings among Republicans (27%).By comparison, there was a somewhat smaller 51-point partisan gap in views of George W. Bush's job performance in April 2001, a few months into his first term. At that time, Republican enthusiasm for Bush was comparable to how Democrats feel about Obama today, but there was substantially less criticism from members of the opposition party.
