Are you feeling safer? (Video)

Topics: Political News and commentaries

Via the GOP.gov Conference blog (HT - Nice Deb):

House Republican Leader John Boehner (OH) and Ranking Republican on the Intelligence Committee Pete Hoekstra (MI) released a web video asking Americans, "Do you feel safer?" :

As Nice Deb notes, you should not be feeling safer, a feeling made all the more so after reading what Ralph Peters has to say about the Obama Doctrine; Hugging Foes, Hurting Friends:

AFTER a mere 100 days, the "Obama Doctrine" for our foreign and security poli cies has emerged. And it's terrifying.

The combination of dizzying naivete, dislike of our allies, disdain for our military, distrust of our intelligence services and distaste for our own country promises the worst foreign policy of our lifetimes.

That includes President Jimmy Carter's abysmal record of failure.

The core tenets of the Obama Doctrine to date would make a charter member of the Weather Underground cheer:

We're to blame. If there are problems anywhere, they're America's fault. This central conviction of leftist ideology appears to have soaked so thoroughly into our president's consciousness during his lengthy friendships with extremists that it's now second nature to him.

Problems can be negotiated away. From Somali pirates to Moscow's belligerency, Obama and his Cabinet see a good chat as the best response to a challenge. Our president got to the Oval Office by talking, not doing, and his faith in his powers of persuasion is unlimited.

Read on. Believe it or not there's much more to make you feel a hell of a lot less safe under the Obama doctrine of hugging our foes and hurting our friends.

And after reading all of Ralph Peters' article, you still haven't got the picture of just what the Obama doctrine means to our safety, check out Preventing Nuclear Terrorism: A Global Intelligence Imperative and be prepared to feel even less safe.- given the terrible threats we are now facing.
