Obama Surrenders

This gutless wonder is going to get us all killed.

Oh, and he also won't be "rushed" into sending more troops to Afghanistan, the generals' opinions be damned.

How can anyone with half a brain still support this pitiful excuse for a president?

JASmius adds: Simple - a majority does not. And as I predicted, as his domestic communization agenda sinks to the bottom of the Alinksy Sea, False Messiah will do what every failing president does: turn to foreign policy. All the more so for Barry O, since he can count on the Donkress not to relentlessly interfere in his conduct of what is legitimately a primarily Executive function.

What he announced today was basically this: he offered cancellation of the anti-MRBM battery and accompanying radar in Poland and the Czech Republic as a pre-emptive concession to the Russians, in exchange for their "help" with pressuring Tehran to give up its nuclear weapons program (despite the fact that it was the Russians who helped BUILD their nuclear fuel facilities). Czar Vlad pocketed B.O.'s gift and gave him nothing in return.

He's trying to sell it as strengthening our short range missile defenses against Iran (to which the freed-up resources can be re-directed, as opposed to BarryCare, where they WILL be directed) because he just somehow knows that the Iranians aren't building long range ballistic missiles, just like U.S. "intelligence" still insists that the mullahs abandoned their nuclear ambitions six years ago, both assertions of which are generating roars of hysterical laughter even from their European counterparts, to say nothing of Tehran and the Kremlin.

And in the process, Comrade Hussein has thrown the Poles and Czechs directly, and more or less the old Warsaw Pact states plus the Baltics states, Ukraine, and Georgia by implication, under the bus in a betrayal that is stunning in its comprehensiveness. He's essentially given Putin a green light to reconquer and reconstitute the old Soviet Union as far west as he wishes, with the limitation on Russian resources his only obstacle.

Why has Barack Obama done this? For the same fundamental reason as his domestic communization blitzkrieg: to undo everything Ronald Reagan did. He defeated and destroyed the Evil Empire without firing a shot, and Red Barry wants to resurrect and restore it as the ultimate act of American penence for this most egregious of foreign policy "sins."

We're in the second Jimmy Carter term, Jen. Even as annoying a RINO turncoat as David Frum admitted so today. He concluded:

Despite the domestic focus of these early months of his presidency, Barack Obama thinks of himself as a foreign policy thinker above all, according to those who know him best. His confidence is undiminished by his lack of experience and credentials. That confidence continues to flourish despite a lack of positive results. Given present trends, it is unlikely to bow to lessons even from seriously negative consequences. The president is committed to his path. So, ominously, is the country.

And in a post-9/11 world, too.
