U.S. CLOSES ITS EMBASSY IN YEMEN

As this administration continues to show more interest in bullying Tea Partiers, Town Hallers, and Christians who actually go to church, I'm simply struck by another trait being exhibited by Obama and company that is common to bullies - backing down. This is not American, pure and simple. I'm also struck by the fact that the policies of this administration towards terrorists have actually precipitated this closure.

KSM is readying an appearance at a civilian trial in NYC, blocks away from the 9/11 attacks and our Attorney General (Eric Holder) not only has a history of releasing terrorists but of working as a partner with a firm, Covington Burling, that represented Guantanamo inmates pro-bono.

In one sense, the despicable and common pasts shared by many in this administration are coming home to roost. In another sense, the cowardice its exhibiting to the world while acting as a bully at home is heartbreaking.

Quoting from the official statement on the embassy closure in Yemen:

January 03, 2010
The U.S. Embassy in Sana’a is closed today, January 3, 2010, in response to ongoing threats by Al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula (AQAP) to attack American interests in Yemen.

Obama is such a strong leader! Shutting down our embassy in Yemen abroad and bullying senior citizens who oppose government run health care at home.
