I just don't think I agree with it. While I believe in a strong defense, and I think that it puts you in a strong negotiating position, I don't think you can bully your way around the world.

The fact is, you don't like Obama, no matter what he does you will find something wrong with it. And that's your right. I'm willing to give his approach a chance. I don't think the US should have to shoulder the burden of NK alone, any more than we should have to shoulder the burden of Iran alone and the question of nuclear proliferation alone. We aren't cowboys and this isn't the wild west.

You know, the objective side of me says that we (Bush) was the one that started this whole "axis of evil" thing. If were another country and the superpower US publicly stated that I was part of an axis of evil, I might put an effort into deterring their ability to attack me. We played right into Iran's rhetoric with that.
