Glimmertwin, I strongly believe that for a day like September 11, 2001, George W. Bush was the right man and I do not know what we are going to see if something similar happens with Mr. Obama as commander-in-chief. He does not look like somebody that can deal with something like that.
Do you remember Chamberlain, the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom from 1937 to 1940? “His attempts to deal with Nazi Germany through diplomatic channels and to quell any sign of dissent from within, particularly from Churchill, were called by Chamberlain ‘The general policy of appeasement’ (30 June 1934). A major structural problem that Chamberlain confronted at the beginning of his Prime Ministership, and to be a major factor in his foreign policy was the problem of worldwide defense commitments coupled with an insufficient economic-financial basis to sustain those commitments.”
Arthur Neville Chamberlain (18 March 1869 – 9 November 1940)… As with many in Europe who had witnessed the horrors of the First World War and its aftermath… was committed to peace. He “is best known for appeasement foreign policy, in particular regarding his signing of the Munich Agreement in 1938, conceding the Sudetenland region of Czechoslovakia to Germany, and for his "containment" policy of Germany in 1939 that culminated in declaring war on Germany on 3 September 1939… Chamberlain was forced to resign the premiership on 10 May 1940, after Germany invaded the Netherlands, Belgium and France. He was succeeded by Winston Churchill but remained very well regarded in Parliament.”
Adolf Hitler was too much for him and then you know what happened. You can not stop a war just extending your hand and your best wishes to your enemies.
What is going to happen if your enemies do not want to open their fists (as it was the case with Hitler)? In that case perhaps somebody like Mr. Bush is not the best solution but somebody like Mr. Obama is completely useless.

easy, kmnupe. feed it to them in small doses. we do not want guys getting academic indigestion. so, ask them one question at a time, wait for the answer, correct the term paper, then proceed to the next. unless, of course, you have to give a lecture in the interim.
