Truckers' Trucking Forum/Message Board - The Premiere Truck Driver Forum

Politics Do Not Pass/Pass With Care. Today's truckers are far more educated and cognizant of the issues regarding politics due to the sharp increase in talk radio, and various trucking news media sources. Talk politics. Do truckers like politicians?

Did We Elect a Beta Male As President?

Did We Elect a Beta Male As President? By [LINK POSTED BY MEMBER] Only Members Can View This Truck Forum Link.

Quote:
We're all somewhat familiar with the body language dogs display when they greet each other. The dominant alpha male approaches directly, asserting his authority, while the beta male genuflects, crouches, tucks his tail, and may even end up on his back, exposing his neck in acquiescence, making sure the alpha male knows he has no intention of challenging him. With his "we will extend a hand if you are willing to unclench your fist" opening to the world's dictators, the President is exhibiting classic beta male behavior, in essence rolling over on his back and exposing his throat to them to make sure they know he has no intention of challenging their authority.

it seems we finished a long stint of clinched fists and we still have dictators...??? why would extending an open hand and trying diplomacy for a change of pace be feared??? personally I doubt it will result in either fewer or more dictators... which is the same result as acting johnny bad boy... no change, the world is what it is...

No, the "world" is what it is because of ignorance, fear and complacency.

A couple of post were removed from this thread by one of the Mods because they were extremely CRUDE. You all know this is unacceptable behaviour. Please, let's try to keep it somewhat clean. You don't want me to get out the cast iron skillet, do you?

This is because we cannot as a country be seen as weak (Clinton, Obama).

Also, 6under, dictators are not to be negotiated with, this policy only serves to legitimize their hold on power within their countries. Thereby allowing them a larger voice on the international stage, and lending credence to their reign as dictators.

We must be seen by the nation states that would cause us harm, as a strong nation willing to stand up for its allies and national interests.

The net result is not to have more or less dictators, but rather ones that think before they act. (will my actions bring reprisals from my neighbors\ allies?)

all obama's beta male posturing has done is to reinforce the belief held by our enemies that we have no taste for war and will easily capitulate, making us a bigger target than before

america has enemies because other nations are jealous of our power and our resources and our wealth, if they think they can take them without any resulting consequences, they will

I don't care if he wants to roll over & expose his own neck, but it's not just his neck this idiot is putting on the line.

And I don't think I want to say any more, I don't need the infraction.

The real problem is even if he goes away there is a line of others just as bad waiting in line.
