Failblog -- Obama's foreign policy.

Sorry, there is no "win," except for the guy who supplies the Kremlin with Depends -- Putin must be getting a rash from pissing himself laughing at us.

Let's grade our President's first year at foreign policy (in no particular order):

1. Speeches around the world apologizing (particularly to the French at Strasbourg -- Google it) for our past arrogance and actions = F

2. Closing Gitmo to satisfy Liberals and Europeans (and messing it up) = F

3. Waiting 8 months to send more troops -- or do anything -- to Kabul after being begged = F

4. Failure to confront Iran in ANY meaningful form, even when confronted with new undisclosed enrichment centrifuges = F

5. Failure to secure any new assistance from the French or Germans for Afghanistan = F

6. Failure to pull out troops from Iraq as promised = F

7. Failure to secure arms treaty with Russians as promised = F

8. Failure to protect U.S. from terrorist attacks from abroad = F

9. Failure to confront piracy in Somalia / Indian Ocean =F

10. Subbing of the U.K. (our "special" friends) = F

11. Snubbing Sarkozy socially (wonder why he's screwing us now?) = F

12. Snubbing Merkel (ditto to #11) = F

13. Kissing ass to Putin and Medvedev (who ignore you) = F

14. Having Russian Duma members refuse to shake your hand (and having it on film that your tried a whole line of them) = F

15. Bowing to the Saudi King, bowing to Emperor Hirohito = F

16. Dissing the U.S. in Cairo in front of the whole Arab world = F

17. Backing the Marxist dictators in Honduras = F

18. Canceling anti-missile system embarrassing Poland (a real ally), Hungary, Czech Rep. etc. in order to appease Putin (who pissed his pants again) = F

19. Abject failure to get Chinese to do anything about trade surplus = F

20. Beijing visit public bitch slapping by Chinese for excess U.S. borrowing = F

21. Copenhagen trip and climate speeches (what about carbon footprint of U.S. delegation) = F

22. Blatant payoff trip to try to get Olympics for Chicago = F

23. Gift of DVDs to Gordon Brown = F

24. Presenting "reset" button (mistranslated) to Moscow (seen as capitulation) = F

25. End "War on Terror" initiate Overseas Contingency Operation (idiots) = F

26. Extended "Hand of Friendship" to Sudanese genocide leader Omar (WTF?) = F

27. Removal of bust of Churchill from Oval Office = F

28. Bragging in State of Union address about assassination total of Taliban / Al Qaeda leaders by Predator drones = F

29. Accepting Nobel Peace Prize -- without having done anything yet = F

30. Screwing our only true friends in Middle East (Israel) to force concessions only to have Arab state (Saudis) reject compromise = F

And this list does not even touch Chavez, Castro and Mexico. Does not even consider the border and immigration fiasco which is also part of foreign policy. It does not address the blunders with Hamas and Syria, or the laughable failure to do ANYTHING to contain North Korea.

Oh, this makes my head reel -- and they though that Bush-Cheney were idiots!!!

In sum, a RESOUNDING F for FAILURE. And we haven't even addressed the lies of the State of the Union speech.
