The Arab Spring has sprung...on Obama

So let's see....

Egypt's government fell to the Muslim Brotherhood this past year, and the Obama Administration supported them. Yesterday they returned the favor by attacking our Embassy, invading our compound, and burning our nation's flag.

Libya also underwent a regime change, and without even bothering to ask Congress as our Constitution requires. Obama deployed military air assets and sent in advisors on the ground to help the insurgents win. And how did they show their gratitude? By coordinating with the other muslim extremists above and attacking our consulate, killing our Ambassador and three other Americans.

You see, Barry? This is why you need to ask others with more experience (Congress, for example) before making unilateral decisions about things that you don't understand and then patting yourself on the back for "going it alone". But the benefit of your decision to keep Congress out of your foreign policy military moves is that you personally own this one 100%, and now that it's all pear-shaped, you have no one else to share the blame with.

But in true Barry Obama/Hillary Clinton fashion, our government has responded quickly, issuing APOLOGIES to the muslims for offending them, even though we did absolutely nothing to incite these attacks.

Let me recap that: Two sovereign American compounds were attacked. Americans were murdered and our national Honor was insulted. And Obama responded with APOLOGIES!

There should have been a response from the American government all right, but it should have involved naval gunfire, airstrikes, and perhaps even a couple of Marine Divisions on the ground marching into a couple of capitol cities. You sand fleas want to get all big and bad? Fine. Let's see how you do with a large chunk of your nation's power grids and port facilities knocked out by our cruise missiles and stealth aircraft and a naval blockade of your coastlines until you remember who you're messing with here.

Sigh. The reality is that they know exactly who they are messing with. They know that Barry Obama, for all of his willingness to use the power of the US Government against us citizens here to make us live as he deems proper, would sooner sell his wife and daughters in the Sudanese slave markets than risk making the world muslim community angrier at him personally. And that last bit is important. Obama doesn't care if the world hates America as a nation; he has gone on record plenty of times hating it, too. Obama doesn't want the world hating him personally. It's always been all about him in his mind and that's how American foreign policy has been conducted since he took office. That's how we got to this point today and why it's only going to get worse for America until he's gone.

Not that I see anything particularly Reaganesque about Mitt Romney, but I do believe that he'll at least try to do what's right for our country instead of trying to protect his own reputation and legacy in the eyes of those abroad who hate us for who we are. November 6th cannot get here fast enough, and on that day, we send a message to the world about what kind of country we're going to be. On November seventh, the wold world will know that we've either rejected Obama's national self-loathing or affirmed it for all time. And if we affirm it, God help us, because we'll have just given the green light to every mud-hut-dweller with an AK-47 or bomb to come at us and attack our citizens without fear.
