So, President Obama is overseas and he appears quite popular. However, and unfortunately for him, his popularity didn’t lead to any concrete results. He may have been well received, but failed in his two goals: to get Europe to commit to more stimulus spending and to get more nations to commit troops to our military efforts in Afghanistan. Again, President Obama may have become more popular by talking about closing Guantanamo or by changing the “War on Terror” to the “Overseas Contingency Operation,” but those who hate us are just laughing as the G20 countries ignore his wishes (and some of our haters are testing rocket launches to boot!)
In other news, Congratulations to all members of the class of 2013! I look forward to seeing you at April Open House!
