Obama Beset By America's Far Right

From the Asia Times online.

"Amidst the great challenges to America's security and prosperity, the current administration too often seems uncertain, wishful, irresolute, and unwilling to stand up for America, our allies and our interests," according to the mission statement of the new group, whose third founder-director, Debra Burlingame, is also co-founder of 9/11 Families for a Safe and Strong America.

The new group, which, under the rules of its incorporation, will be permitted to lobby the US Congress and endorse political candidates, will focus initially on raising money to help disseminate its video ads, the first of which is currently featured on its website.

"The left has dozens of organizations and tens of millions of dollars dedicated to undercutting the war on terror," Kristol told Politico on Tuesday. "The good guys need some help, too."

"Keep America Safe believes the United States can only defeat our adversaries and defend our interests from a position of strength," the statement says."
