U.S. Ambassador to Russia: Obama Says We Should Support ‘Universal Values,’ Not American Values

U.S. Ambassador to Russia Michael McFaul neatly summarized everything that is wrong with President Barack Obama’s foreign policy in an interview yesterday with National Public Radio (emphasis added):

Why Are Some GOP Presidential Candidates Ignoring Key Questions About Our Military?

Republican presidential candidates are on their way to South Carolina−let’s hope that the next debate we see is better than the one that ABC News produced in New Hampshire last Saturday. Commentator George Stephanopoulos relentlessly interrogated former Governor Mitt Romney about a non-issue: Should states be able to ban contraception?
It was a ridiculous question that [...]
Despite New Security Threats, Obama Cuts Defense – To Spend on Everything Else

Yesterday, Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta released the Pentagon’s new defense strategic guidance, and President Barack Obama delivered a speech on his new strategy, which plans to cut tens of thousands of ground troops and “reduce our overall capacity.”
Why now, you may ask, when the strategic guidance itself warns of an “increasingly complex set of [...]
The Iraq War Did Not End on December 17, 2011–But the Peace May Be Over Soon

I am disgusted by the media declarations and the presidential proclamations that the war in Iraq has ended with the departure of US troops. It is an erroneous conclusion, designed with political victory in mind–and heedless of the risk of projecting military defeat.

Military LGBT Law to Enforce New Gender Order

The campaign for repeal of the 1993 law regarding gays in the military employed administration-coordinated deception, faux "research" from LGBT activists, sophistry, questionable tactics, and misuse of the military's own culture of obedience. It will be up to the next Congress and President to find ways to mitigate the damage.
NYT’s Stunning Claim: Military Retirement and Health Programs = ‘Big Social Welfare System’

It seems President Obama, his Department of Defense, and the New York Times have found something in the budget they think is worth cutting: military retirement and healthcare programs. In a stunning article, the NYT went so far as to call the current programs a “big social welfare system.” These programs are certainly not welfare by any means, but by calling them such, the NYT is only embarrassing itself and showing its usual disdain for the men and women who bravely serve their country.

Gone are the days when American presidents addressed the United Nations’ General Assembly as the leaders of the free world. President Obama used the international stage to reinforce his foreign policy doctrine, officially relinquishing America’s role as the arbiter of global peace and security.
The Noble Peace Prize laureate, Obama showered praises on the UN’s role [...]

In the past ten years, we have lost the lives of many of our best and brightest fighting this war. Families have been torn apart, children no longer have the opportunity to grow up with a mommy or daddy, and some returning military members remain physically and or mentally traumatized. War is hell.
