Our president tells the world that he is “not weak” as he addresses the graduating class at the US Military Academy commencement address. Using diplomacy and “multilateral action” (begging for others to contribute, participate, sacrifice, and lead) is an example of American might and leadership.

“Receiving tepid applause and a short standing ovation from less than one-quarter of the audience upon his introduction, Obama argued for a contradictory foreign policy that relies on NATO and the United Nations while insisting that ‘America must always lead on the world stage.’

‘If we don’t, no one else will,’ he insisted.

But ‘we require partners,’ he said….”   http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2641713/Im-NOT-WEAK-Obama-hits-foreign-policy-critics-vows-ramp-support-Syrian-rebels.html

The world needs us to lead. If we won’t, no one else will. But we need partners.  Wait, what?

So, less than 25% of the West Point graduates stood for their commander-in-chief when introduced. And he only received sporadic applause. Maybe they really ARE warmongers who want continual warfare. Or maybe they just disagree with a spineless, wish-washy, egg-suck dog who has apologized a blazing path across the globe, bowed to tyrants and despots, and forecasted our military plans to our enemy.

He used Syria as an example of this multi-lateral, (collective) action. Excuse me, but a few months back we were all set to use UNI-lateral military action against the regime in Syria. Assad had crossed the declared but undeclared red line, you see. We sent three destroyers to their shores. We send troops to the area (my kid was one). We sent planes. B. Hussein only stopped when it was “tooth pulling without Novocain” clear that the American people were not on board for a fourth war in the region. So he pulls back and defers to Congress who said, not just no, but hell no. THAT is an example of multi-lateral leadership?

Barry stated that we will use unilateral action when our strategic interests are at risk, or our people are threatened. Like the preacher in Iran imprisoned since Christmas, 2012. Or like the retired FBI agent missing since 2007. Or like the Marine Sergeant imprisoned in Mexico for the last two months. I guess those three are not being threatened, just inconvenienced.

This clown will not admit failure of any kind. He’s always right, or others are shades of wrong. Debating that depth of narcissism is impossible. He always will shift the goal posts. I’ll never be right and he’ll never be wrong. But I’ll never shut up.
