On Crossfire, Gingrinch just called Obama's foreign policy "failed". Yeah?

I mean war has not broken out in the Ukraine and Iran is at the negotiation table. What do the GOP mean by 'failed'. Do they mean that Obama has not started a war?

(later) now Hillary is a 'failed secretary of state'. They are swiftboating Hillary: taking her greatest strength and trying to turn it into a fault. They really don't want to run against her in 2016.

If he says 'yes', he should have said 'no'. If he says 'no' he should have said yes. Neo-cons are all traitors.

happened, they have not let Obama have one foreign policy experience without attacking him. It used to be the one area of his Presidency they had not molested.

Someone else just said Obama is to blame for the economy. Which the GOP would not allow Keynsian measures to improve it. Make something happen then blame the person not responsible....psychopaths do that.

past incompetent politicians. Gee, maybe they can have palin and cruz give their opinion of the Constitution. No thank-you.

The good news is that CNN continues to be among the lowest in ratings. Actually, they all are losing their ratings which gives me some hope that people are wising up to this insanity they call the MSM

Both on the same show. Reeks of talking points. Don't you want to know what the GOP talking points are going to be each night so we can fight them?

within our borders for the first time since WW2. Or when we invaded another country on either bad intelligence or a big fat lie (depending on what one chooses to believe). Now THAT'S foreign policy failure.

Obama's FP is a failure, Bush had already gotten us into two wars by now. Obama might not get us into one, and he has two terms to do it. That gets a Prez the big "F" in Republican world.
