Hey Phil,

In my short 52 years I have learned to never say never, when it comes to the resolve of the American people. I believe history proves this out.

Thanks for coming by and Happy New Year, by the way.

Barry Rubin explains:“Friends, especially in Europe, are pleased, applaud, but then add that they don’t have to give this guy anything because he is all apologies and no toughness. They like the fact that he is all carrots and no sticks. If, however, they are states more at risk…they worry that they cannot rely on the United States to help and defend them. Enemies or potential rivals…say that this guy is weak and defeated. He apologizes,offers unconditional engagements, and promises concessions…they’ll eat the carrots and, if possible, their neighbors as well.”

NY Post writer Ralph Peters, a former military intelligence officer, sums up the hate-America core tenets of the “Obama Doctrine”as follows:
(1) We’re to blame,
(2) Problems can be negotiated away,
(3) Problems that can’t be talked out can be bought off,
(4) Islamist terrorism doesn’t exist,
(5) It’s all our fault,
(6) Israel’s the obstacle to Middle East peace,
(7) Our nukes threaten world peace and we need to get rid of them,
(8) Our military is dangerous,
(9) Our intelligence services are even more dangerous than our military,
(10) It’s only torture if we do it, and
(11) Blame President George W. Bush.

Obama is clearly not satisfied with threatening the safety of our tried-and-true allies abroad. He is also determined to undermine the bedrock foundation of America’s security – our military and intelligence agencies. By disclosing interrogation memos – and planning to release photographs associated with military probes into prisoner abuse – he has betrayed every heroic person who risks his or her life for our country, and unforgivably given aid-and-comfort to enemies who see the with virulent anti-Americanism and lust for our demise. And in the Department of Homeland Security’s infamous memo, he has called members of our military, among others, potential domestic terrorists! http://community.adlandpro.com/forums/post/1235084/ThePresidentThatHatesHisCountryByJoanSwirsky.aspx

Auletta: Obama Honeymoon Over, Lost Fox Battle

By: Jim Meyers

Not only is the mainstream media’s honeymoon with Barack Obama over butalso Obama lost his war against Fox News after a mean-spirited effortto shut the network up.

That’s the view of longtime media insider and uber-journalist KenAuletta, who also declared Tuesday morning on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe”that Obama’s attacks on Fox News and conservatives in the media was“Nixonian” and said the Obama team has long viewed the press as“jackals.”

Asked what Obama’s strategy was in attacking Fox News, Rush Limbaugh,and others in the media, Auletta said: "They actually think they weretoo slow off the draw to go after Glenn Beck and others on Fox News,and the push within the White House in late summer and fall was, wehave to be more aggressive.
“That argument won out and ultimately what they did, they went afterFox, they went after some others in the press, and then they found outthe press kind of joined in and said, 'Hey stop this. This isoutrageous.' This is Nixonian actually was the argument that was made.And the White House has sort of backed off.”

Editor’s Note: Get Newsmax’s special report “Obama Hates Fox News” – the inside story revealed – Click Here Now.

Auletta writes in a new article for New Yorker magazine: “During the2008 elections Obama was the object of near veneration, possessed of apersona and a campaign that were irresistibly compelling. . . Whatcomplaints the Obama campaign had about coverage it generally kept toitself. But now that the president has rolled out his ambitiousinitiatives. . . he bristles at the way he is treated in the media.”

Auletta was asked Tuesday morning to characterize the relationship now between White House and the mainstream media.

“Post-honeymoon,” he declared. “The honeymoon’s over.”

Host Joe Scarborough noted that, if Martha Coakley loses the specialelection in Massachusetts today, “it may be counseling time.”

Columnist and MSNBC commentator Mike Barnicle noted that Obamapreviously received “kid-glove treatment” from the press, and askedAuletta whether he senses “any tone of arrogance in the White House” topress coverage.

“I do,” Auletta responded.

“One of the things I found in my reporting is, below the surface, theObama administration and its people were angry at the press allthroughout the campaign, despite the press coverage they got, which wasvery favorable.

“In fact, in David Plouffe book, his former campaign manager, hedescribes their attitude as ‘the jackals.’ They referred to the pressas 'the jackals'.” http://newsmax.com/InsideCover/kenauletta-obama-media-honeymoon/2010/01/19/id/346810?s=al&promo_code=95AF-1
