Meanwhile he is promoting his tough stance on terror.

I -- that we go after al-Qaeda.

They've been decimated the Fatah.

There we go after bin Laden he's gone so I've executed on my foreign policy and it's one that the American people largely agree with so.

You know if if governor Romney is suggesting that we should start another war.

He should say so.

Where'd that come from is he suggesting that Iran it's a war -- let's turn to Peter Johnson junior who joins us.

Each and every day with the reaction to that -- what's he talking about you know I don't know what he's talking about and you know Joseph Biden made a similar reference with regard to Syria and I ran -- -- to a Democratic Convention.

The speech.

I think it's designed to say that any criticism of the president on his foreign policy.

Is designed to bring us into war there -- a lot of opponents of the president.

Who's saying that the weakness in vacillation in the mideast.

Are the best steps to promote a war.

Having concern is the president too busy campaign to be the president.

What an opportunist who visited talked well and opportunity there was today and yesterday and -- with -- world leaders we know we saw these world leaders at a reception.

At a cocktail party but it's a cocktail party a substitute for a robust.

Foreign policy could we be asking Pakistan.

About their policies could be asking Afghanistan and why our troops are being killed two we pressed mr.

-- why Egypt is indicting American citizen's -- -- exercise their first amendment rights question do we speak to Israel and -- Netanyahu and say yes we're with you.

Seems like opportunities lost.

Campaign big on the mind.

Foreign policy not not not so big we hear the speech I looked at parts of it.

A lot of -- minds a lot of generalities.

No tough stance though saying.

Backed off -- -- -- we're doing the best we can we wanna be friends.
