One of the central ideas of the Obama election was apparently, if you went around the world bowing and apologizing for what a terrible country America has been, then all the Islamist Jihadists would get the message, be appreciative of the change in course, and back off from attacking the US as the "great Satan".
Well, obviously that has not worked out too well. We have the killing of the Arkansas military recruiters by a terrorist. We have the Ft. Hood mass murder by a terrorist, we have the "Fruit-of-the-Kaboom" bomber attempt, and we learn from him that there may be 200 more Jihadists just jumping at the chance to be next!
Now that's gratitude for you!
In his recent article on National Review Online, Mark Steyn makes this point and many others: to wit, that treating all of this as isolated events, as legal problems vs a war, not only makes no sense but is not doing one darn thing to protect America and Americans!
Steyn's central point: this is what you get when you elect a Community Organizer as Commander in Chief, he doesn't have a clue how it works.
