I recognize that Barack Obama does not wish to defend this country. He may have been tired of war, but our enemies are not tired of killing us. And they’re getting stronger.Among other things, it's a particularly apt paraphrase of Leon Trotsky's, "You may not be interested in war, but war is interested in you."
In an eerie parallel to Reagan's "Government isn't the solution, it's the problem," Obama believes America isn't the solution to world problems, America is the world's problem and his goal is to make it less of one.
I would expect Obama and Rand Paul mostly agree about this goal. COTTonLINE disagrees utterly.
Meanwhile, Michael Goodwin in the New York Post opines:
Paris is the final straw. Obama’s exemption from reality has expired. He must either commit to leading the free world to victory, or step aside so someone else can.
