First, Obama needs to remember what happened in Iraq after we pulled out our support for the people there in the early nineties. There was a huge backlash that killed thousands of people who thought the US would help them. It only resulted in giving Sadaam more time to build up his military, get rid of his WMD’s, and kill opposition. If we don’t help in Iran, thousands more will die who only want freedom. How can we stand aside and let that happen?

Second, Obama knows that what he’s doing in our own country is unconstitutional and when our own people wake up and say enough, he’ll have to put a stop to it. So how can he say yes to demonstrations in Iran while having to silence his own citizens? That’s why he’s keeping quiet. The July 4th rallies are coming up and he needs to be able to limit them or close them down. It could get ugly.

that Obama was an empty suit.

Now they are all discovering just how empty. It isn’t pretty, and it won’t get any prettier.

Russia is describing their ongoing talks with the Administration as “constructive” – which means Obama is caving on missile defense for eastern Europe.

Pyongyang feels empowered to be as insane as they want (which is plenty darned insane).

America as a world ideal, as a “shining city on a hill,” is being defenestrated as we watch helplessly.

But at least it’s “cool’ that we have a black President, ain’t it?

The total is 250, as against the reported 7

Honestly, if we turned him loose on Congress, he’d have them in tears 15 seconds after he came through the doors.

This whole situation is just sick. He’s treating it like some sort of domestic disturbance. You hear it going down across the street, things are breaking and people are screaming and crying, but when you call the cops, you play it off and just mumble something about your neighbors creating a racket.

Too many toys in the crib for The Won.

Obama would have to have one of those before he could act consistent with it. As an individual who knows how to do nothing but run for office, his decisions are driven solely by his perpetual campaign and what might get him elected in 2012.

He is so accurate. And he rubbishes the moral equivalence or stupid stuff so quickly.

We saw a snapshot of the Presidents response when he was still a Senator. Remember Georgia ?
