OneNewsNow.com-A retired Army general says recent foreign trips by President Barack Obama have demonstrated that he is weak when dealing with national security issues.

During his recently concluded two-day visit to Russia, Obama – along with Russian President Dmitry Medvedev – announced that they were determined by year’s end to negotiate a new nuclear arms treaty that would slash both countries’ arsenals by about one-third.
 
Maj. Gen. Jerry Curry (USA-Ret.) is the author of From Private to General and served 34 years as an Army aviator, paratrooper, and ranger. He was not impressed with Obama’s performance in Moscow.
 
“He is continuing to come across as a very weak leader. In his other overseas trips, he has essentially groveled in front of the other leaders and the other countries of the world,” Curry says. “And he is doing essentially the same thing with Russia.”
 
Curry says Obama reminds him of former President Jimmy Carter.
 
“Jimmy Carter just about destroyed the military in terms of removing budgeting, removing procurement of new weapons systems – and President Obama seems like he’s going down the very same road,” Curry contends. “He cut a billion dollars out of our missile defense R&D efforts that we’re trying for new missiles to protect our country.”
 
At the rate Obama is going, Curry believes the United States will end up with a hollow Army, a hollow Navy, and a hollow Air Force — effectively causing the U.S. to become a punching bag for countries like Russia and China.

President Obama promised LGBT (lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender) supporters Monday at a White House “gay pride” celebration that he “will continue to be an ally and a champion” for their agenda, once again vowing he will repeal the Defense of Marriage Act and the military’s “don’t ask, don’t tell” policy.

Ken Hutcherson, senior pastor of Antioch Bible Church in Washington state, says it is “a shame” that the president is “supporting what destroys the family.”
 
“There’s absolutely no truth in anything he said, from beginning to the end,” says Pastor Hutcherson. “There is no such thing as [a] biblical stance for homosexuality, if you use the Bible. If you want to use any other denomination, feel free — but where I stand is…biblical; it is marriage between one man [and] one woman, and that is the relationship, heterosexual, that is ordained, blessed, and called by God.”
 
In his talk, Obama acknowledged that many Americans still disapprove of homosexuality. “There are still fellow citizens, perhaps neighbors or even family members and loved ones, who still hold fast to worn arguments and old attitudes,” he stated. (See related article) Hutcherson says those comments demonstrate the president has contempt for more than just conservative Christians.
 
“I think this president has a disdain for anyone who disagrees with anything about him — don’t just limit it to Christians and conservatives,” he remarks. “Brother, this man doesn’t like anyone who doesn’t think he’s the smartest man in the world.”
 
Hutcherson says until conservative Christians make their small voice a dominating one, there is nothing that will stop President Obama from pushing for the legalization of same-sex “marriage.”

DRUDGE REPORT

Staffers have joked about the menacing glance, which comes when the president meets with world leaders who are not aligned with his progressive view.

White House photographers have captured the “evil eye” in recent weeks, during sessions with German Chancellor Angela Merkel and Colombia’s Alvaro Uribev.

Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi got hit with the commander’s malocchio last week in the Oval office.

And at least one White House reporter has been on the receiving end of the daggers during a press conference.

Like, who gives a flip? Smiths one of the journalists that Bernard Goldberg describes as having a slobbering love affair with Barak Hussein Obama. Even with that said, this makes me want to throw up. The interview was aired as part of CBS Sunday Morning on Fathers Day. In the story, Obama is described as “Father-in-Chief”, which is ludicrous.

Here is the interview in question……get a baggy…. yopu will have to go directly to the You Tube post of the interview as CBS will not allow bloggers to embed the actual video.

On Monday, a State Department flack was quizzed on the party topic and replied, “No, there’s no thought to rescinding the invitations to Iranian diplomats. … [W]e have made a strategic decision to engage on a number of fronts with Iran, and we tried many years of isolation and we’re pursuing a different path now.”

Cut off the weenies, Coors Lite and sparklers for you, Cantor says.

“This is just the latest example of an Administration so desperate to keep a campaign promise that it will celebrate our own Independence Day with the agents of a regime that supports terror and brutalizes its own people,” says Cantor spokesman Brad Dayspring.
