It's Never Been More Important To Get Involved

The administration boasts that Iran is becoming increasingly isolated. Really? Just two weeks ago, 120 nations showed up in Tehran for a meeting of the Non-Aligned Movement — against U.S. entreaties not to attend. Even the U.N. secretary-general attended — after the administration implored him not to. (Charles Krauthammer, Washington Post, 9/13/2012)

We just watched Dick Gregory try to bully Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu into disavowing Mitt Romney's comment that Obama has 'thrown Israel under the bus.' Netanyahu - friend of Romney and no friend of Obama - is too smart to play along. But the real point of Gregory's question is to shift the focus back to Romney and away from Obama's failed policy which Krauthammer reminds us about above. Masquerading as journalists, the Obama re-election team in the Liberal media continue their desperate attempts to bury the story that Obama is a rube on foreign policy.

Alas, there is some hope.....

But with an election less than two months away, the administration faced growing questions about its policy in the Middle East, just a week after a buoyant party convention in which Democrats touted the president's national security agenda. (WSJ, 9/14/2012)

These questions come at an inopportune time domestically as Mr. Obama enters the fall campaign with a small lead in polls. His policies escaped serious scrutiny in the initial days after the attack that killed four Americans in Libya last week, in part because of the furor over a statement by Mitt Romney accusing the president of sympathizing with the attackers. White House officials said they recognized that if not for Mr. Romney’s statement, they would have been the ones on the defensive. (NYT, 9/15/2012)
