Drone strikes widely opposed

[naturegirl]

Ever wonder how the US President is perceived globally?? With the exception of Japan and Russia (I can be more flexible after my election) Obama has dropped significantly. Even Mexico isn't excited about him.

Keep in mind, this poll was from June, well before the 9/11/2012 debacle.

Global approval of President Barack Obama’s policies has declined significantly since he first took office, while overall confidence in him and attitudes toward the U.S. have slipped modestly as a consequence.

Europeans and Japanese remain largely confident in Obama, albeit somewhat less so than in 2009, while Muslim publics remain largely critical. A similar pattern characterizes overall ratings for the U.S. – in the EU and Japan, views are still positive, but the U.S. remains unpopular in nations such as Egypt, Jordan, Turkey and Pakistan.

Meanwhile, support for Obama has waned significantly in China. Since 2009, confidence in the American president has declined by 24 percentage points and approval of his policies has fallen 30 points. Mexicans have also soured on his policies, and many fewer express confidence in him today.

AGM-114 does leave a mark.

The far right does not care what the rest of the world thinks about America, period.

This OP is a non-starter.

Oh poor Starkey, if the news was good about Obama you'd be cheering it.

Wait.............didn't he campaign on how much the world wold love him, especially the Mideast??

Stop listening to the radio.

The movie did it, google did it, the radio did it.

Drone strikes are good for American safety.

The far right does want Americans safe.

Bush did, Obama does it, and Romney will do it.

What do the far right wackawackas not get?
