LOL Neither do I ! The World is Not Respecting or Fearing President Obama

The World is Not Respecting or Fearing President Obama
FOX News
We can safely say that most of the world does not respect President Obama. His “red lines” are useless. His “threats” are laughed at.
We are closing embassies around the world after President Obama told us that the war on terror was as good as over.
And he looks so weak when there is a thug like Putin on the other side of the table.
For example, the Cold War and USSR is history but Putin is boosting military ties with Cuba. What for? This is what “thugs” do when they sense weakness.
Putin is having a good time insulting Obama, as Michael Crowley reminds us today:

“The Cold War may be over. But America’s relationship with Russia is about as warm as a Siberian pool party. And there’s not much Obama can do about it. Some commentators are urging him to “man up and punch back.” But Putin is not an easily intimidated man. Indeed some close observers openly wonder if he’s altogether rational. One former senior Bush administration official recently described Putin to me as having transformed from confidence to arrogance to outright megalomania. (That’s not to mention the well-publicized, often-shirtless “nonsense jackassery.”)

And much like China, Russia simply isn’t a country America can bend to its will. Especially not when oil, one of the country’s prime exports, are well over $100 a barrel, giving Russia the cash and comfort to project. And especially when America’s reputation around the world remains, shall we say, problematic.”

Yes, our options are limited but we would have a few more of them with a stronger president!
We are back to leadership 101. The US president must be respected and feared. Otherwise, he is useless on the world scene no matter how many times they scream “yes we can” in Paris or “we love you” in South Africa.
It’s all about having “cards to play” and keeping your opponents guessing.


Wild Thing’s comment.………..
Obama wants a weak America he is doing all he can to make it that way. He is disgusting and an embarrassment to our country. The heck with those idiots brain dead that voted for him, they do not love our country. IMO

TomR,armed in Texas says:

I would almost rather have Putin in the WH. At least he is not a muslim like obama. Otherwise, both are America hating Marxists. .
BTW; Bush “looked into Putin’s eyes and saw his soul”. It has been almost 25 years since we had a competant prez.
