I have been very impressed with the reaction to my blog post on Barack Obama. I originally posted the photo without commentary to stimulate an examination of Sen. Barack Obama\u2019s foreign policy. I remain certain that his foreign policy ideas pose a great threat to American security no less than those of Al Gore or John Kerry might have. I believe that America has avoided another terrorist attack precisely because President Bush has been office for the past 8 years. I\u2019m convinced that an Obama presidency will plunge us back into the failed foreign policies of the Clinton administration and put us in great danger.<\/span><\/p>\n

For example, General Colin Powell said of the\u00a0enemy during the first Gulf War that, “First we’re going to cut it off, then we’re going to kill it.”\u00a0 On September 19, 2001, Sen. Obama said of our enemy that,\u00a0\u201cWe will have to devote far more attention to the monumental task of raising the hopes and prospects of embittered children across the globe.\u201d <\/a>I am extremely disturbed by Sen. Obama\u2019s solution for the war on terror, and hopefully, you will consider this too.

This reminds us of their criticism of those who cling to our guns and religion and strikes me only as par for the course. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0I have no regrets<\/span><\/strong> <\/span><\/strong>from this<\/span><\/strong> <\/span><\/strong>picture, however<\/span><\/strong>, <\/span><\/strong>I\u2019m sure that a further examination of Obama\u2019s foreign (and domestic) policies must occur in order that voters might truly understand the vast, vast differences between him and Sen.
