Joe Biden Was Right - Obama Is Being Tested
Does anybody remember during the presidential campaign somebody saying something about somebody being tested? As I recall, it was Joe Biden saying that if Obama was elected that he would be tested early on. Unfortunately, I believe he was right. Since President Obama’s election, Iran has continued pursuing the development of nuclear weapons despite what any country says. North Korea launched a missile directly over Japan, and there are conflicted reports as to if the missile actually made it into Earth’s orbit. Kim Jong Il seems to be back and wreckless as ever. Chinese leaders said that America is overreacting to the situation. How about pirates? Not Captain Jack Sparrow, and the Black Pearl. If you haven’t heard, I’m talking about the Somali pirates that are currently holding an American hostage. Do you know what is happening with that situation? America is negotiating with them. I’m not a brain surgeon or a rocket scientist, but I’m not an idiot either. Wouldn’t you consider the repeated hijacking of ships and holding the contents and people hostage a terrorist activity? Apparently President Obama does not, given that the U.S. is currently negotiating with the pirates. My opinion is that it is a terrorist activity, and do not believe that any negotiations should be taking place.
President Obama is being tested by the world, and in my opinion he is failing. He campaigned on the idea that America needs to engage in more diplomacy to solve problems. He must know something that we don’t, but it doesn’t seem to be working. He went to the G20 to rally up some support from the rest of the world. Whether it was to find support for stimulus plans in Europe, or combat support in Afghanistan, or Pakistan, even with his popularity in Europe, he failed to accomplish anything. Now we have a leader who nobody fears, and nobody wants to help. If you voted for him, you should be giving yourself a great big pat on the back right about now. Oh, the cherry on top, Hillary Clinton thinks its funny. She made comments about the pirate situation, and was laughing. I bet the family and friends of the Captain being held hostage really appreciate her laughing at the situation. They probably find it very funny as well. Good job American voters. Good job.

I can’t believe that she laughed about piracy in somalia.. If i was one of the family members of the guy that got kidnapped I would be pissed right now!! How can she laugh about something as serious as this? I bet she could give two sh**ts about the guy..
I agree with you that Obama is being tested, and obviously he is not doing so well. Europe doesn’t believe in his economic policy, Iran and North Korea think Obama is a push over.. I think its going to be a long 4 years my friend. Brace yourself for higher taxes and interest rates…. At least we can sleep better at night knowing we didn’t vote for him!!
