I clicked on the Journal Editorial Report on Fox yesterday afternoon after noting a crawler about the administration's foreign policy. When I turned up the sound, I heard a few moments of a woman panelist's thoughts on the subject but, unfortunately, I didn't catch he name. However, here's what she said.
She very briefly made the point that she thought the current administration had no real foreign policy or capability in that regard at all. Then she went on to state that in contrast, the Bush approach was very aggressive to the extent that all threats were taken seriously and dealt with accordingly, including our incursions in the Middle East, such as Iraq.
As a result, she thinks, of all the harm and damage done to enemies abroad, and their having been held in check by Bush, the current administration has had the advantage of weakened opposition who today are lesser threats. This in turn, gives the president time to avoid direct involvement which camouflages the fact that he wouldn't know what to do if things heated up or military action was called for.
In closing, she suggested that all the incumbent really wants is for things to stay calm until November because any kind of real conflict would expose him for what he is, and although she was far more articulate and polite...I interpreted her meaning to be he's an inexperienced political hack in a job that's a hundred miles over his head.
That's it for today folks.
Adios
