Time.com: "Why Obama Has Defaulted To Bush Foriegn Policy Positions And Why We Think Anything Ofumble Does Is OK"
Tony Karon loves himself some Kool-Aid.
President Barack Obama at the helm of U.S. foreign policy... is more like taking over the controls of a train than getting behind the wheel of a car. That's because you can't steer a train; you can only determine its speed.
I would offer a different opinion. The speed of the train could be stop and then reverse, asshat. The reason the train is still going in the Bush direction is because it is the correct direction. Dictators, like Hugo, Putin and Kim, and terrorists like Hamas and Mahmoud, don't give you an option to turn right or left. They are heading straight toward you for a SERIOUS game of chicken. The best you can do Ofumble, is to make your train bigger and faster so they turn or stop instead of you. Appeasement and acquiescence is the way of cowards and pussy pacifists, which gets you no where but defeated and humiliated. Hey, how is the "until the end of the year, Mahmoud, I'm serious" thing going tough guy?
/getting down off of soapbox.
Sorry about that. I feel much better.
