Obama completely embarrassed America at the UN. To represent that "climate change" even rates as an issue - let alone the most important for our future - is ludicrous, and embarrassing. Leaders around the world are laughing at him. Additionally, his naive and ill advised posture at the UN undercuts American and allied interests.
He throws our friends under the bus as he does so. Of course, he had already made a habit of it.

Love this toon. It says it all about Obama, the paper tiger.

You could substitute "Health Care Reform" for "Climate Change" and the toon would still be valid. The Presidency's core functions, foreign policy and national defense, are in a complete shambles.

You forgot to add an incoherent GW asleep at the wheel while Afghanistan completely fell into the hands of the taliban.

The UN embarrassed themselves by recent activities. such as naming Castro " worl hero" and applauding Chavez and Ortega. No wonder Bush didnt care much about them. I get it now.

GW was not "asleep at the wheel," goofball. If anyone was, it was his commanders. A president, as commander-in-chief, relies on them to advise him what is needed in terms of resources to match the current situation on the ground. If those commanders had been requesting more manpower then, as they are now, believe me with the mainstream media in the U.S. Americans would have heard about it ad nauseum. Afghanistan didn't deteriorate overnight, mind you, but if commanders on the ground aren't pressing for more resources, then why would a president order more forces into theater?

This cartoon is reflective of President Obama's commander-in-chief leadership. It is non-existent and American soldiers are dying on the battlefield while he wanders aimlessly.

Soldiers dying on the battlefield? My friend, wait until Americans start dying at home again because of this idiot. His weakness as a leader will be exploited by our enemies. They are already trying, but thank God for the FBI. I just wonder how much longer can they keep foiling these plots before one gets through.
