The Obama administration sure knows how to win friends and influence people. They’ve spent their first year-plus in office “extending an open hand” to countries that hate us – i.e. Iran, Venezuela, etc. While simultaneously kicking dirt in the faces of our friends – i.e. Honduras, Great Britain and now Israel. How else do you […]
Yes, I watched the State of the Union speech Wednesday night. After suffering through 70 minutes of it, I was presented with a dilemma. I could blog about a speech that everyone and their mother had already blogged about or I could play Mass Effect 2. Mass Effect 2 won. I did make some comments […]
Earlier this year there was a bit of a hubbub after President Barack Obama bowed to the Saudi king at the G-20 summit. At the time, I was inclined to initially let the mistake slide because of Obama’s inexperience and only posted about it because the White House insisted that what I could see with […]
It appears the Obama administration may finally be opening its eyes to the reality of their man in Honduras. The United States blasted ousted Honduran President Manuel Zelaya for his "irresponsible and foolish" return from exile before a settlement was reached in the Central American country's political crisis. At an emergency meeting of the Organization […]
Those are the words, when they come out of President Barack Obama’s mouth, should clue you in to the fact that he hasn’t said it before – he’s merely changing his mind. If you hadn’t noticed, the war in Afghanistan isn’t all unicorns and rainbows. There’s more than three months left in the year and […]
There was one issue that the fawning mainstream media didn’t bring up over the weekend as President Obama did the rounds of all the Sunday talk shows – except for “Fox News Sunday” – and that was the Obama administration’s outrageous behavior toward the democratic government of Honduras. The Obama administration has repeatedly demanded the […]
President Obama sent out his flack, Robert Gibbs, today to announce that the U.S. would be abandoning its plans to construct limited ground-based missile defenses in Poland and the Czech Republic. The missile defense system was targeted at preventing Iran from using its nascent nuclear capability from terrorizing our allies in Europe. (Let’s leave the […]
I’m not sure exactly what this video says about the nation’s top diplomat. Now, apparently the student translator got it wrong; he was asking about President Obama’s position on the issue – not former President Clinton’s. I understand these are just students in Congo, but would her highness behave more or less appropriately when participating […]
The Colbath’s are missionaries living in Honduras. Their take on wannabe strongman and ex-president Manuel Zelaya is similar to that of a friend of mine reported in returning from a short-term missions trip last month. What follows is a letter sent to President Obama by the Colbath’s daughter, Hannah, and forwarded to me by a […]
Miguel Estrada was the brilliant conservative lawyer that the Hispanic-friendly Democrats in the Senate filibustered after President Bush nominated him to the D.C. Appeals court early in his first term out of fear that he would later be on the short list for any Supreme Court vacancy. Democrats succeeded. But thankfully Estrada is not constrained […]
