Obama cannot be trusted with national security or foreign policy issues

I do not feel good about the future. Obama has shown time and time again that he will not do what is necessary to protect our security. The previous president was brash. He followed up the invasion of Afghanistan which had a reasonable justification with an unprovoked attack to remove Saddam Hussein from power without thinking clearly about what happens after Hussein is removed from power.

President Obama will stop at nothing to avoid discussing seriously what needs to be done to protect our security against dangerous enemies. He is severely corrupted by several extremely wrong people he relies on for "advice" like Mohamed Magid and Al Sharpton. What we have is a group of policies based on an anti-Israel anti-American anti-law-enforcement pro-Muslim Brotherhood perspective. President Obama insults our intelligence by telling us that we don't face a grave and imminent global menace from radical Islam.
