Obama needs to show a little more backbone

We are nearing the end of one year of President Obama rule. Starting with World War II, it was generally thought by us older Americans that we were saving the world from tyrants. Our president has found it necessary to apologize to every country that threatens to act unfriendly to us. Bowing, scraping and kissing the feet of those who could do us serious harm.

Only recently has this president acknowledged that we are in a state of war with Islamic terrorist extremists. Revelation comes after the nearly disastrous attempt to blow up an airplane over Detroit with 290 people aboard. This president has no clue about what to do about homeland security, job security, financial security or Social Security, including ObamaCare. Three more years of this is a very long time.
