Let me ask you something. How can you be oblivious to all this?
Are you a Palin?

Obama's policy on Lybia was/is weak and is potentially dangerous. What direction is the Lybian government going in now? The Libyan Transitional National Council, led by Mustafa Abdel Jalil has already been in talks with Iranian officials and Iran continues to call the Arab spring an "Islamic Awakening". Lybia looks more like our mistake in abandoning a post USSR occupied Afghanistan back in 1989 than any kind of responsible policy with regards to Lybia.
Killing Bin Laden isn't really something Obama should be bragging about without looking foolish. I can't imagine a president who wouldn't have signed that order. He`s bragging about something, that if he didn't sign the order to proceed, he`d be covering up ever since.
On Iran your comments cry out for the AFAIK qualifier which was wisely used above by Merrylander above. Iran has arguably advanced its agenda more in 3 years of Obama than in the preceding 30 or so years since 1980. Iran`s influence has grown and Iran`s boldness reaching unprecedented levels under Obama`s cut-and-run foreign policy stance.
