OBAMA'S KUMBAYA SPEECH AT ANNAPOLIS



Upholding values will shield US from terror: Obama
President Barack Obama Friday warned America risked its security when it compromised its values, seeking support for his bid to sketch a new legal framework for anti-terror policies.

Obama used the backdrop of the US Naval Academy graduation ceremony to argue that founding US ideals must guide the future battle against terrorism, a day after trying to quell raging debate over Guantanamo Bay in a major speech.

"We uphold our fundamental principles and values not just because we choose to, but because we swear to -- not because they feel good, but because they help keep us safe," Obama told 30,000 graduating navy cadets and family members.
WHAT PLATITUDINOUS CRAP!

BLOOD SWEAT AND TEARS KEEP US SAFE, "NOT UPHOLDING VALUES"; CHURCHILL (UPON ACCEPTING THE POSITION OF PRIME MINISTER):

I say to the House as I said to ministers who have joined this government, I have nothing to offer but blood, toil, tears, and sweat.

We have before us an ordeal of the most grievous kind.

We have before us many, many months of struggle and suffering.

You ask, what is our policy?

I say it is to wage war by land, sea, and air.

War with all our might and with all the strength God has given us, and to wage war against a monstrous tyranny never surpassed in the dark and lamentable catalogue of human crime. That is our policy.

You ask, what is our aim?

I can answer in one word. It is victory. Victory at all costs - Victory in spite of all terrors - Victory, however long and hard the road may be, for without victory there is no survival.

Let that be realized. No survival for the British Empire, no survival for all that the British Empire has stood for, no survival for the urge, the impulse of the ages, that mankind shall move forward toward his goal.

I take up my task in buoyancy and hope. I feel sure that our cause will not be suffered to fail among men. I feel entitled at this juncture, at this time, to claim the aid of all and to say, "Come then, let us go forward together with our united strength."
CHURCHILL DIDN'T UTTER THE WORD "VALUE" ONCE; HE IS EXPLICITLY ANNOUNCING THAT BRITAIN WOULD DO EVERYTHING AND ANYTHING TO WIN.

SADLY - FOR OUR SAFETY AND THE SAFETY OF THE FREE WORLD - OBAMA WON'T DO THE SAME.
