As we stated in the beginning: "Loyal opposition is demonstrated by reaching back when the other side reaches out in good faith and by supporting the president when they think he’s right."
It has been difficult to find something to really hang my hat on in terms of supporting our president other than simply being civil. All those things have been lost in the chaos of his government expansionism al la health care, cap and trade, and stimulus. Now, however, I think I should spell those things I agree with him.
1. Continuing the struggle in Afghanistan: way to go Obama. Keeping Gen. Petraeus around and Bob Gates as Sec. of Defense. I worry his bone to the left by accelerating the Iraq draw down will jeapordize what we did there, but lets no let that muddle the general continuation of our policy to confront the Islamic extremists around the globe.
2. Authorizing the killing of the Somoli pirates that had the American ship captain hostage. Dude that was a crazy shot.
3. And, finally in more recent news. Dispatching the navy seals to nutralize a retched terrorist in Somalia.
Way to go Obama. Don't let me down on this one. It seems everyone is going wobbly on the War on Terror.
