New Poll: Only 32% of U.S. Voters Believe We Are Winning War On Terror
When Barack Obama took office in 2009, 54% of voters believed we were winning the war. Now only 32% feel that way, with 24% believing that the terrorists are winning. In addition, support for Libya is waning.
What is happening? In two and a half short years (though it feels like an eternity), Obama has destroyed the U.S. image overseas. Admittedly, there were countries that didn't like us. There always will be. But in Obama-world this is unacceptable. Everybody should love us. Why? Obama doesn't live in the real world. He lives in a socialist utopia vision inside his Orwellian head. There is probably nobody more surprised by his complete lack of influence in foreign affairs. After all, he's Barack Obama! In his own words: "I have a gift".
The only ones who seem to be inspired by Barack Hussein Obama are the radical jihadists around the world. Unfortunately, the message that they are getting from his is that they can wear down the will of the United States, and that we will turn tail and run.
Obama has been President just over two years, and yet over 60% of casualties in the Afghan war have occurred on his watch, with last year being the deadliest for U.S. forces since the war began. Combine this with Afghani's burning Obama in effigy, and things don't look good on the Afghan front.
Remember, it was Obama who, right after he took office, did an "apology tour" on three continents, talking about America's arrogance, and refusing to acknowledge American exceptionalism compared to other countries and governments. This was the beginning of the rest of the world looking at the U.S. as a former power. It was also the beginning of many of our enemies to see cracks in our armor. Countries like Iran and N. Korea, and especially the islamists saw this as weakness. Even political groups like the Muslim Brotherhood, socialists, communists, and anarchists are sensing the weakness. As a result, we are now seeing uprisings all over the Middle East, Africa, Europe, and even Madison, Wisconsin. Blood is in the water and the anti-American sharks are circling.
2012 is going to be a watershed moment for the United States. Obama will be in full teleprompter campaign mode. We can only pray that Americans are thinking "Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice..."
