Credit Where Credit is Due
by Mike on Apr.22, 2009, under Political
So as to not sound like an Obama-bashing demagogue, I do want to give credit to the President on a couple of matters where he is deserving of kudos.
First – Staying the course in Iraq and implementing a “surge” in Afganistan are clearly wise moves which will maintain and strengthen national security.
Secondly, boycotting the UN Racism Conference was a good idea. This event is nothing more than a UN sanctioned Israel bashing session for which our absence, along with Canada, Italy, etc, diminishes the luster. We should not be providing credibility to events such as this which denigrate one of our closest allies.
That said – kudos to you Mr. President for your stand in these areas. You have done the right things here, and I want to recognize you for that.
