Article regarding US Foreign aid...
Posted: May 24, 2011
Not really surprising how much of it goes to Muslim or Arab countries, but what the money is actually used for was an eye opener for me.
Most Arab countries are oil rich....so my question is, why can't they take care of their own military and police forces and let us put some of those billions against reducing the deficit?
Or...why not use that money to fund some of the programs people seem to think they can't live without within THIS country instead of ADDING to the deficit?
It is time for hard choices....

Does anyone really believe that Obama's foreign policy is working? How can anyone argue that, in the last 3-1/2 years, things have gotten better in the Middle East? I think the era of pandering is over since that was a huge failure. Let's try something else, shall we? ...

Question: Since When Does Foreign Policy Mar 03, 2015
"run through the Executive Branch?" This is what Obama stated today in his press conference after Netanyahu's speech.Since when it is ONLY the President who makes decisions on foreign policy? Hasn't it always been Congress to decide and isn't it their job to decide funding, arms, or anything else with regard for foreign policy? This is the impression I got on that statement. Is he now planning to take over that part of congressional policy for more power?BTW, he stated he did ...

Trump To Cut Foreign Aid But Palestinians Will Apr 27, 2017
TEL AVIV – The Trump administration is gearing up for major cuts in U.S. foreign aid across the world with the notable exception of the Palestinian territories, which will receive increased funding, State Department documents obtained by Foreign Policy magazine show. The documents, part of an internal budget proposal for 2018, seem to confirm the State Department and USAID’s 28 percent budget cut announced in March. While many countries will suffer from major cutbacks or else have aid cancel ...
More On The Foreign Workers Doing JobsAug 01, 2017
These workers are hired on B1/B2 visas and told what to say to immigration officials when arriving to this country and given letters to give to immigration officials. Apparently, this type of visa allows you to work in the USA in a supervisory capacity, but they are not. Mercedes-Benzi states that it "contractually requires all of its contractors to comply with all applicable laws, including those laws and regulations related to immigration, safety, wages and hours."

A Reminder On Foreign Policy And Obama.Oct 23, 2012
Remember 2008? One of Obama's weak points was foreign policy....he had NO experience in foreign policy. A lot of people don't want to vote for Romney because he doesn't have any foreign policy experience. To those people, I would love to know why they would vote for a candidate that had no foreign policy experience one year and four years later refuse to vote for someone because they don't have any foreign policy experience? Doesn't make sense to me. This post really d ...

Obama Has Not Right To Tell Scott Walker To Bone Up On Foreign PolicyApr 08, 2015
He hasn't done a good job at foreign policy himself. In response to Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker’s criticism of his Iran policy, President Obama suggested that the presumed candidate for the 2016 Republican presidential nomination “bone up on foreign policy.” In other words, anyone who disagrees with the president on Iran’s nuclear program, or any other national security issue, is just not knowledgeable enough to understand. Of course, there is a very ...
