Coward in Chief - By Design

By Douglas V. Gibbs

As the rising terror threat has caused the United States to shut down embassies in the Muslim World, we must ask, "Why are we shutting down these facilities on a moment's notice?"  Do we not protect and defend, anymore?

The "Duty to Retreat" philosophy seems to be running rampant through this administration, and the Democrat Party.  From Eric Holder's recommendation to people like George Zimmerman, who feel the necessity to defend themselves, to our embassies, to the liberal left's anti-bullying campaign, the message is clear: Don't stand up and defend yourself.  Run and hide, instead.

Obama is doing the same with the United States.

The old saying, These Colors Don't Run, seems not to apply.  But this is fully intended, because the liberal left does not like America as a superpower.  They aim to diminish her, to relegate our nation to a follower, just another socialist country following a larger global agenda.

The only thing that can turn this around is the Constitution. . . which promotes strength, liberty, sovereigny, individualism, and self-reliance.

Under a President that would be willing to follow his oath of office, we would not have abandoned our embassies.  We would have fortified them, and ensured they were safe as a result of superior fire power.
