Common Sense

“I wasn’t a great communicator, but I communicated great things, and they didn’t spring full bloom from my brow, they came from the heart of a great nation-from our experience, our wisdom, and our belief in the principles that have guided us for two centuries. They called it the Reagan revolution. Well, I’ll accept that, but for me it always seemed more like the great rediscovery, a rediscover of our values and our common sense.“
- President Ronald Reagan

Where Credit is Due, Credit is Given

Congratulations Mr. President on a job well done. « POWIP
Congratulations Mr. President on a job well done.  Yes, President Obama deserves credit for this decision to kill/capture a wanted terrorist responsible for terrorist attacks in Kenyan and other places against the United States.  In this area of Obama's policies I'd actually have to give him pretty high remarks.  Obama has made some tough choices when it comes to America's defense, but he has nonetheless made some very good calls.  ex. engagement of the Somali pirate kidnappers in April.  These actions no doubt were probably very tough for the simple reason that the Left wing of the Democratic party, which Obama is smack dab in the middle of probably fought him tooth and nail to avoid taking on threats to the United States and our citizens.  It amazes me, the hypocrisy of those on the Left, that they will avoid legitimate defense for fear of international condemnation.  Honestly, who cares what the rest of the world thinks, their people are not in danger, and when push comes to shove, I'm looking out for my own - American citizens. 

So with that, I will give credit to Obama for not caving in to the Left wing of the democratic party and the crazy liberals, and for standing up and doing the right thing and defending our country and countrymen.
