Some pretty good arguments there.
What has Obama's nice-guy act achieved so far diplomatically?
He asked China nicely for more respect of human rights
China: "no, fuck off"
He asked Israel nicely to restrict settlement construction
Israel: "no, fuck off"
He asked Iran nicely to stop their nuclear program
Iran: "uahahahahahaha"
So basically, USA's new "nice guy" image is not getting them anywhere on the world stage. But then again, isn't that libruls want? A weak USA?
