Where is Obamas expertise on foreign policy?

Answer: He hired Hillary Clinton.

But I'm sick of religious right wing nutjobs antagonizing their enemies from behind the cover of those on the front lines fighting to protect their freedom. Same whack job who burned those Korans and got US troops in Afghanistan killed began promoting a viciously anti islamic film last week in conjunction with his own Judgement of Mohammed internet telecast to be featured on 911. And overnight it has cost a US Ambassador and 3 embassy staffers their lives in Libya.

Stand Up America with Dr. Terry Jones - Gainesville, FL - Public Figure | Facebook

This page includes a link to the trailer for the film which Jones began using the end of August to promote his own planned activities for 911.

Sam Bacile’s Anti-Islam Movie Sparked Deadly Protests in Egypt, Libya | Video | TheBlaze.com

Meanwhile Mitt's first response (similar to the nutjob Pallin he strives to distance himself from) was to criticize the president for the Egyptian Embassy's initial attempt to diffuse the situation they were caught up in in part by apologizing for a film made by and promoted by a bunch of nutjobs hiding behind the flag. Apparently in hopes of salvaging his poll ratings. This isn't the salvaging the Olympics or building Bain Capital. Wake up America.
While I despise the Terry Jones types, and that other baptist guy who protests military funerals, it is one's right to speak freely in this country, even when we don't like it. If savage primitives across the pond kill because of some youtube movie they don't like, the blame is on them. I think it's time we fold up shop across the globe, and tell the world they're on their own from now on. We have our own problems here at home.

He has four years as president and before that was a Senator, and most surveys of foreign countries show that Obama's presidency has been good for the reputation of our nation. He handled the Arab Spring well, helping to end several dictatorships without enmeshing our nation; he got rid of a lot of terrorists (including bin Laden); he got us out of Iraq; and he's calmed things with North Korea and even with Iran, compared to when Bush was President. Overall, his foreign policy is such a big success that Rmoney at the Republican convention actually chose not to mention Afghanistan or our troops. And yes he appointed very talented people like Hillary Clinton, which is a big deal when we look at the lack of talent employed by the Bush administration.

Hey...I've got an idea. Let's have a contest.

Let's start a pool and whoever comes closest to correctly guessing the number of times 13 repeats this inane, inaccurate and improbable thought wins.

I have an even better idea. Any way we can have Ian build an auto-reply feature to have your post be my default response to every post he makes?

In talking points currently being pushed to Republican leaders and top surrogates, the Romney campaign recommends attacking President's Obama "foreign policy of weakness" and dismissing questions about how the campaign responded to the crisis last night.

For a guy who doesnt want to talk policy, and focus on the economy, Mitt Romney sure can't even follow his own talking points / public strategy.

He amazes me, and then I remember he is Mitt Romney, and it's par for the course.

I'm not handing out free advice, but thsi race is getting rediculously lopsided, so .... Mitt SHOULD be talking about the 40 million americans living in poverty today...not doing damage control...but then I remember what I just forgot....that he is Mitt Romney, and it's par for the course.




FORE!

The only way to exploit the tragedy is to convince Americans that Obama should not have let Qadaffi fall; otherwise, I think Americans understand that the ME is in transition. The fact that the Libyan government has strongly condemned the attacks is also a good thing. I don't think Qadaffi would have done that.
You ae correct - Today Romney does lack expertise in foreign policy.
You did not have a problem voting for Obama in 2008.
How much experience in foreign policy does a community organizer and
one term congressman have?

I am sure Romney cabinet will have plenty of foreign policy expertise.

When Obama was running for President he talked about shutting down
Gitmo and putting the terror suspects on trial in New York City.

How did that turn out?

When was Obama a senator?
Oh...Yes... A Illinois State Senator.

And if his foreign policy advisors are any indication, most of them will be holdovers from Bush.
