Obama's Weak Nuclear Play

Nothing worse than a leftist ideologue leader purposely weakening America's national security.  President Obama is like those people that watch Texas Hold 'Em on TV, and think they could play with best.  The problem is that in real life one doesn't get to see the hole cards like on TV.  Russia and China are far better players and they just gamed our novice President.  Obama has so many tells, and he got played.  Actually its not that hard to play Obama.  Iran does it weekly.

Rudy Guiliani has it right in National Review Online:

“President Obama thinks we can all hold hands, sing songs, and have peace symbols,” Giuliani says. “North Korea and Iran are not singing along with the president. Knowing that, it just doesn’t make sense why we would reduce our nuclear arms when we face these threats.”

“The president doesn’t understand the concept of leverage,” Giuliani continues. “He’s taken away our military option and it looks like he would prevent Israel from using a military option. He also hasn’t gotten Russia or China to agree. With Russia, he should have made them put their cards on the table. Instead, like with the missile shield, he gave up and got nothing for it. He negotiated against himself. That is like reducing the price of your house before you get an offer.”

“Leverage means the other guy has to be afraid of you,” says Giuliani, a former associate attorney general. “I worked for a president, Ronald Reagan, who understood that brilliantly, and that’s how he won the Cold War. You need to appear to be unpredictable. [Reagan’s] State Department understood that you need to create pressure, to create something they’re afraid of. Tell me where Obama has done that.”

“This president has taken so many steps backward in dealing with national security,” Giuliani concludes. “Beyond this nuclear policy, this is still an administration in a state of confusion about how to deal with terrorism. They’re out of control. And they have shown an inability to make tough decisions. It’s not inconsequential how the president dithers over so many issues, yet when it comes to dealing with Israel, one of our strongest allies, he doesn’t show much ambiguity. With Israel, he has been extremely hostile. His treatment of the Israeli prime minister [during his recent Washington visit] was shocking.”

I just hope we can survive the ineptness of the Obama Administration.  We will need to reverse course as soon as Obama is voted out of office.  Even then, our country will have been weakened and we could be attacked.  And it will Obama's fault, just like 9/11 was Clinton's fault.
