Republican Foreign Policy Mad Libs
Posted by David Shorr
For many of those traveling for the holidays, this will involve a long road trip by car. When I was young, the best way to amuse ourselves was Mad Libs. So I thought our Republican friends might enjoy a Mad Libs edition of their foreign policy argument:
This president has been a disaster in foreign policy. That’s because he doesn’t believe in ________________. Over and over again, Pres. Obama
Superlative about American greatness
has acted as if it matters what they think in other countries. He lets foreign leaders believe they can disagree with America and refuse to do what we tell them.
We need a president who will be _________________________ . When
adjective that sounds good when said with set jaw / steely gaze
___________ is president, the rest of the world will understand that they
GOP candidate
can’t run around disobeying the United States. The key to foreign policy is an unwavering belief in our rightness and policies that drive home our unwillingness to compromise. President ___________ will never allow _________ to do / have __________.
GOP Candidate bad guy / country bad thing
S/he would _______________________________________________
tough-sounding step that might / might not be practical and President Obama may or may not already be doing
Most disastrous of all, President Obama has not supported America's allies _________. A Republican
Israel
administration would _____________________________. It's obvious that this president doesn't take the threat
action or position that'd be extreme-right even in Israeli politics
of a nuclear-armed Iran seriously, because he hasn't attacked Iran yet.
And speaking of wars, it's also obvious that President Obama doesn't understand the need for more of them. Why is he pulling US troops out of Iraq and Afghanistan? As the party that has for decades benefitted politically from an image of being pro-military, we call for presidents to listen to military commanders. Because as it says in the Constitution, the president is the advice-receiver-in-chief.
My bit of holiday fun for our Republican friends. Hope they enjoy it. Best thing is, none of the mad libs have to have a basis in fact.
Thanks for your sharing.

The same dynamic is playing out right now in Afghanistan. Yet some irresponsible politicians with dangerous ties to a foreign state still claim that war is the answer. If the question is, "how can we get elected?" or "how can I get rich?", then, yes, war actually is the answer.
