Way too long

Well, it's been ten days; way too long to go without some sort of input at PPP.
In the intervening, there has been so much going on world-wide.
Embassies trashed, ambassador tortured and murdered, riots against my country and an administration hell bent on ignoring the fact that a foreign policy based on apology, appeasement and bowing to tin-pot rulers is utter and complete folly.
When Obama, shortly after the election, decided to go on what has become known as his 'apology tour', far-sighted critics like Pat Buchanan, Charles Karuthammer, Lou Dobbs and Rush Limbaugh expressed the view that such displays of weakness could not be good for the leading country in the world.  Obama would weaken our position, they said.
Responses from the left were typical: racist, uninformed, and the always handy 'inflammatory'.
Well, we can see who was right and who war wrong; the wars and rumors of wars seen in the Middle East, Asia and North Africa all owe their genesis to the genius of Barack Obama, who is never wrong, just ask him.
This is just a small sliver of the incompetence that characterizes the Obama administration.  From the beginning of the 2008 campaign, doubts about the ability and sincerity of the 'community organizer' to actually do something, anything remotely  worthwhile/legal, or in the interest of someone other than himself.
He has been abetted by a compliant, toadying press, altogether too unwilling to ask the tough questions that would be presented to a Republican; even basic reporting of investigation has been shelved in favor of fawning, drooling and admiration.
Hell, one so-called 'journalist' had the 'audacity' to inform the world that '...when Obama speaks,  I feel a tingle up my leg...', and 'part of my job is to make this president look good.'
This guy is still on the airwaves, even though no fair-minded individual gives him any credibility at all anymore.  He's typical of the press corps that has as it's goal the parroting of White House press releases instead of real investigation, reporting real information and alarm-sounding.
The measure of today's press is: Whoever gets the latest announcement from the White House on the air first is the winner.
The fourth estate has sold it's history and it's soul for a chance to be regarded as a democrat soldier.
