Obama’s Foreign Policy–Think About It
Yesterday, Bush attacked Obama’s foreign policy plans of ineffective and dangerous. Obama has stated before that he was in favor of diplomacy and discusssing issues with other countries–even ones we disagree with. Bush has said in response that in 1939 a US Senator had wanted to talk to Hitler. Is Obama’s foreign policy appeasement? I don’t know, but I do know Bush’s criticism worries me.
Look, Bush’s foreign policy hasn’t exactly been a screaming success. The war in Afghanistan is working on year number 8 without fruition, the war in Iraq hasn’t gone well. We cost our allies in Spain, England, and other countries their national elections when they were tied to the United States, Iran is building the bomb, Russia is going back to a cold war mentality, leftists are taking control of more and more South American countries, extremism and terrorism are growing worldwide, our nation’s reputation has been stained and shattered. Yet, Bush finds Obama’s foreign policy dangerous.
If this isn’t a wake up call for America than I don’t know what is. Think about it, Bush finding your foreign policy dangerous is like Dr. Phil telling you that you need to lose weight. It is like Paris Hilton refusing to get in your car because you’ve had too much to drink. I hope the American public was listening carefully yesterday. Obama’s foreign policy is so dangerous even Bush wouldn’t do it. That should tell you something.
Maybe Obama should use smaller words so the President won’t be so afraid.

You know, Edmund, that might help. Short, declarative sentences, too.

Do you honestly believe that after all Bush has done a foreign poliicy that scares him shouldn’t scare the Hell out of everybody else on the planet?
