Obama said, “Recall that earlier generations faced down fascism and communism not just with missiles and tanks, but with the sturdy alliances and enduring convictions.
They understood that our power alone cannot protect us, nor does it entitle us to do as we please. Instead, they knew that our power grows through its prudent use. Our security emanates from the justness of our cause; the force of our example; the tempering qualities of humility and restraint.”
Obama is either an ignoramus or blinded by his biases. Earlier generations “faced down fascism” by defeating the German National Socialists (Nazis) and their allies by war, bullets, tanks, bombs, etc., not with “sturdy alliances and enduring convictions,” nor did the Allies all share the same convictions, the USSR certainly did not share the same convictions as did Great Britain, Canada, Australia, and the United States; they only shared the same enemy.
Obama said nothing about the fundamental American value of liberty. What about the Declaration of Independence which lists some rights given to all of us by our Creator, life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness? No, Obama wants unity, no political disagreements, hard work. Shades of Lenin!
