Let's hope America keeps going down into poverty, anti-White policies & international passivity until the Anglo-American founders seperate from an empire that is against them. Cheer the Fall.

Obama is continuing Clinton’s policies, laying the groundwork for future failures." Wait, wait. It's not bad when Bush inherits bad policies and continues them, but it is when Obama continues them? Granted the problems weren't so obvious under Bush, but a good ruler should nose around everywhere looking for problems in the making, even if he doesn't expect them to emerge until a rival is in power. Bush was demonised, yes, but that doesn't mean he was completely competant. It's tempting to automatically use the demons of the neurotic left as paragons, but not rational. I do agree that Bush's foreign policy was less ruinous than Obama's, but it wasn't making the US any friends, and made its allies a little leery... I'd say a few unprofitable and awkward wars with minor powers are better than the sort of apologetic, nonconfrontational approach Obama seems to be going for. The seeds of future problems are sown; Russia, China and Iran are getting ideas. “GWB faced a massive economic crisis, inherited from Bill Clinton (…)

Obama is continuing Clinton’s policies, laying the groundwork for future failures.”
