The news has been cancelled in this country, it's more info-tainment and you've got extreme right winger Rupert Murdoch owning so much of the media. People rely on idiots like Limbore and Beck for news. What a sorry state of affairs.
Obama's foreign policy is a failure. No one is threatened by a dog on its back, exposing it's belly.
The National Intelligence Estimate in 2007 claimed that the Iranian government had halted their nuclear weapons development program in 2003 and had not since resumed it. Based on this estimate, which was widely leaked to the media, Democrat politicians and their media toadies developed a line of attack on the Bush administration and its confrontational stance toward Iran. Reluctantly, and to widespread international approbation, Bush adopted a more conciliatory stance toward the Iranian regime and liberals congratulated themselves for pulling the nation back from the brink of conflict.
Since then the "soft power" approach to Iran advocated by liberals has been spectacularly non-productive. Rather than moderating, the regime has been threatening a genocidal attack on Israel, has been supporting radical terrorist organizations throughout the region (Al Quds, Hamas, Hizbullah) including terrorists in Iraq and Afghanistan who have killed Americans. And, as the public now learns with the revelation of a second reactor, Iran has been continuing, even accelerating, their clandestine WMD programs.
And now we learn that Obama knew, as early as last year, that the 2007 NIE report was bogus and that Iran had in no way moderated its activities. For months after assuming power, committed by their demagogic rhetoric to a non-confrontational, "soft power"approach to Iran the Obama administration stubbornly ignored heightened provocations and evidence that Iranian-backed forces were killing Americans, and recently refused to criticize the brutal suppression of democratic protests within Iran itself.
More aggressive foreign policy than Bush, I do not thnk so.

Unlike Bush, Obama is attacking "Pock-ee-stan" more readily. He's increased the net amount of troops in the middle east. Yes, I believe he's more aggressive than Bush. But, he walks a thin line with his moderate and liberal base, so there's more "window dressing" as Kokesh puts it to make it appear he's actually bringing troops home. Reassigning them as "non-combat" police and other tricks.
These guys are just happy with Obama's foreign policy, they just like b----ing at Obama to make it appear they're actually different.
