The Commander-in-Chief has an obvious advantage going into a foreign policy debate in which his opponent never commanded anything more than a state militia. So Romney spent a lot of time in the final debate agreeing with the Obamarama. The President's single most important foreign policy accomplishment, if you can call it that, was the execution of America's worst nightmare, Osama Bin Laden, after a decade of war that has alienated most of the Muslum world and
sacrificed American morale, if not its
civil liberties. His foray into Libya has
come back to haunt him with the death of the American ambassador in Benghazi; he has been unable to obtain the support of Russia to end the Syrian Civil War, he has increased the
killing of civilians in northern Pakistan by remote control; and his China bashing has done nothing to stop the bleeding of jobs from the American economy. Only against an opponent as disingenuous and inexperienced as Mitt Romney could he appear to be a poised leader of a great nation. And in a game where content does not matter, appearances are everything.
