[Rhodes22-list] Political - Mr. Obama how about #372?

[Herb Parsons]

It may "improve the image of the US abroad", but I suspect it will 
decrease our security. Our "image abroad" was, according to all I can 
hear from the left, much higher prior to 9/11 than it is now. Our "image 
abroad" has decreased, but our security has increased.

Now, of course, we have different goals. I hope when the attacks come, 
they're not in my neck of the woods.
