Ed Morrissey at Hot Air has a very good round-up of sources surrounding this new Madness of King Obama.
Let me add one or two common sense observations; 1) we have a history of actually being bound by our treaty obligations, 2) others have a long, sorry history of NOT being bound by treaty obligations, and using them strategically to our hurt and their advantage.
I was taught in my early teens that I could win a fight against a much more capable enemy if I struck first and kept striking until resistance was ended. That is commonly understood in human affairs, as it is in nature.
Despite all delusional thinking in this regime to the contrary, this nation...and our culture...has implacable enemies who will strike first in a bid to destroy us.
Now...today...we have the upper hand in the race to provide very effective national defense from space-based platforms. Obama seems intent on squandering that advantage, and carefully tying us down like a modern Gulliver.
The Mad King Obama does not show any sign of understanding...or even caring about...national security. Indeed, the opposite has been demonstrated time and again.

AMEN!!!!!!!
Why is this, anyway? We keep our part, even when the bad guys ignore theirs?
That could be a part of why President Washington told us to avoid entangling alliances. I wish it could be attributed to a misguided sense of honor, but it's probably just stupidity.
There had been...BO (Before Obama)...a culture of respect for the rule of law. To paraphrase the great line from Judgment At Nuremberg, "It means standing for something when standing for something is the hardest".
ReplyDeleteBut I agree that, in the face of a cynical foe who will use our best character as a dagger, all bets are off.
