Is there anyone he hasn't pissed off? The One is doing a remarkably complete job of alienating all our friends and allies around the world. This morning I read about how he's managed to get on the wrong side of both sides in Egypt – something I wouldn't have guessed was even possible. Also, the situation in Venezuela has deteriorated to the point where their government is seizing U.S.-owned oil platforms, and we're doing nothing about it. In just the past couple of months, The One and his administration have managed to wreck or make worse the U.S. relationship with Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Venezuela, France, Germany, and Russia. He seems to be working hard to do the same thing in Iraq and Afghanistan, and a couple things I read last week were early warnings about trouble brewing in Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan.
Which got me to my morning ponder: is there, in fact, any country that has a better relationship with the U.S. today than they did when Obama was elected. I cannot for the life of me think of one. Not even one...
