"define" Obama as a threat to our security

The subtext between Obama's words here expose threats to our national security, for those who are able see through his charismatic delivery.

[I will]:

-Slow our development of future combat systems
-Cut investments in missile defense system.
-Will not weaponize space
-Will not develop nuclear weapons
-global ban on production of fissile material


All fine if Obama has some magical power over the rest of the world, which he does not. Obama's views reflect his naive belief that China, Russia, North Korea, Iran, and who knows which other countries are susceptible to smooth rhetoric and will join his quests on the strength of his charisma.

He does not see that the items he wants to eliminate are the reason why the rest of the world does not mess with the United States with impunity. If we undercut our strength, we can be assured the forces of evil will see their opportunity.

Obama is sorely lacking in experience. He thinks the world operates the way a state legislature, a court room, or the Harvard Law Review does. It does not.

And for nauseating blather on tangential distractions, Obama brags about "Inhaling frequently; that was the point." This legitimizes behavior that our young people are powerless to resist when they see someone like Bill Clinton or Barack Obama indulging in it. youtube.com

I can tell you from personal observations of otherwise productive and honorable people that when they teach youngsters "If it feels good, do it; and if you don't feel like doing something responsible or productive, don't do it" the youngsters turn out poorly. It is possible to pull out of an irresponsible upbringing like that, but it takes decades.

If we have a President of the United States legitimizing drug behavior, susceptible minds will follow suit.

And racist demagogues the likes of which several have ranted in the church Obama attends THREATEN OUR NATIONAL SECURITY. Make no mistake about it. Racial harmony is crumbling about our feet, and people like this are doing it to us, Obama's apologies notwithstanding. youtube.com

I expect Obama to drop-kick them quickly and move on.

Sorry Dale, that statement offends me. Obama can fool some of the people some of the time, but not all of the people all of the time. Those of us who see through him do not deserve to be talked about like that.

And if you think that little gestures like wearing a flag pin or saluting the flag, or honoring the National Anthem are meaningless, you are mistaken.
