Powerless in Crimea

Barack Hussein Obama has squandered the strength of the United States, which had been the last and lone superpower. Obama gave away our qualitative and strategic edge over Red China and resurgent Russia, preferring instead to focus national and strategic resources on fighting the chimera that he calls "global warming" and focusing Federal resources on spreading the wealth through his redistributionist policies, while make real cuts to military budgets. Obama slashed defense spending even before the sequester and was happy to see sequester further sap military preparedness. Obama damaged readiness, slashed procurement and training, and upped the operational tempo and number of deployments, even recently cutting veteran benefits, making service in the armed forces harder and less desirable, but have no fear, members of the Obama cadre have a solution- the imposition of a military draft. As America backtracked on national security, Communist China modernized their destructive capability, with weapon plans gained from the US by means of theft or espionage, or through the stupidity of the US defense establishment using contractors or subcontractors from Red China on Pentagon or NASA projects. Obama disarmed (with plans now by Obama to cut army personnel to pre-World War II levels) as China surged resources into building up the Red military, and Putin rearmed Russia to levels not seen since Soviet days. The weakened state of America versus the strengthening of our foreign enemies does not make the world safer or more stable, because there is peace through strength while the kind of weakness Obama has brought to America only invites aggression.
