Pavlovian Obeisance: Obama's foreign policy


Sen.Lindsey Graham is saying that Obama failed by pulling out of Iraq. If Obama doesn't pull the troops out, the Status of Forces Agreement (SOFA) with Iraq will put our soldiers, marines, airmen and sailors in Iraq at risk because the Iraqi government will be able to prosecute them.

Obsama made a campaign promise to end the Iraq War. It's time to go.

Sen. Lindsey Graham (R_SC) said this on Fox News:


I think in the last year he has made some very poor, dangerous foreign policy decisions at the strategic level. I would argue that Iraq and Afghanistan is being run out of Chicago -- not Washington -- in terms of decisions.

"What about the argument that in the last six months, bin Laden is gone, al-Awlaki is gone and now Gaddafi is gone?" Chris Wallace asked.


Obama reminds Rightardia of Richard Nixon, a president who had an excellent Secretary of State as Obama does. Nixon's domestic policy was lack luster, but his foreign policy was outstanding, thanks to no small measure to Henry Kissinger.

Clearly the US foreign policy was at is low ebb during the GW Bush administration. Condoleeza Rice indicates in her new book that she was constantly at odds with Dick Cheney and other neo-conservatives who wanted to make perceived enemies disappear much like a two-bit dictator would do.

Well, they called him Darth Cheney, didn't they?
