It's a Tad Cold Out

I've written before about the looming threat posed by our supposed Russian friends. An incident around North Korea just reinforces my beliefs that the Cold War is alive and well. Perhaps it is Cold War II. Russia has aligned its interests with Iran, China and North Korea, has taken steps to monopolize oil production and refining in the Middle East and Far East, and it's shadow has grown large under the psychotic Vladimir Putin. The prior failures of President Obama's foreign policy that I have written of before have only encouraged this threat, but don't get me wrong, it would have occurred without his inept foreign policy. We are facing threats from within (idiotic domestic policy) and without and the 2012 election is absolutely going to be critical. As much as I like Ron Paul, I have to say, I cannot support his bid for the nomination due to naive foreign policy.
