Romney's Rushed and Dangerous Bluster
WASHINGTON -- Once upon a time there was a silver-tongued president. His
foreign policy must have been seen by enemies of the United States as weak
and feckless, because these enemies became emboldened. Mideast terrorists
staged a brutal, bloody attack in which innocent Americans were killed. The
president's response could be seen as a display of shameful weakness rather
than steely resolve.
I'm referring, of course, to Ronald Reagan and the 1983 Marine barracks
bombing in Beirut, which claimed 241 American lives -- and led Reagan to
withdraw U.S. forces from Lebanon.
It's useful to keep this antecedent in mind as opportunistic critics
embarrass themselves looking for ways to bash President Obama over the
spreading anti-U.S. violence in Egypt, Libya and now Yemen.
I mean Mitt Romney. Really. U.S. diplomatic posts are attacked abroad, and
your first reaction is to issue a statement blasting the president? J.
Christopher Stevens, the American ambassador to Libya, and three other
officials are killed in a commando-style assault on the U.S. Consulate in
Benghazi, and your instinct is to seek not safety for other Americans at
risk, not justice for the coldblooded killers, but political advantage for
yourself? | y****t 发帖数: 10233 | 2 at least, you need to get your link source right.
