President Obama has been personally ‘stung’ by his foreign policy critics and makes a series of speeches and appearances to ‘address’ those critics directly. Is this a wise political move? What are the top issues in the 2014 election cycle? Do they have anything to do with foreign policy. Are the president’s critics warmongers? Does the criticism have to do with the president’s decision making process and consensus approach to reacting to Syria, Libya, Ukraine and terrorists? When is it appropriate to question the White House conduct of Foreign Policy? If the people of the United States are focused inward, can the president’s economic policies be blamed? What about the rest of the world — becoming concerned about over-capacity and deflation? These are the issues that ought to be on the front burner in the foreign policy debate few people have indicated interest in. Sponsored by Baklund R & D.

The week ahead, live from the deck at the Broadcast Bunker. This is becoming a Sunday night tradition. Having a steak and updating Bob Davis Podcast subscribers on key stories for the coming week. Wrap up for Operation American Spring protest which was held Saturday in Washington DC. Can you force congressmen and senators to resign? Can you impeach legislators? Then what? The VA health care controversy continues to grow. Get used to it, because the VA is what Obama Care will be like for all of us if the law isn’t repealed. Is the First Lady’s concern with the kidnap victims in Nigeria real? What Putin is really after. Fires in San Diego, Tornados in Alabama and a swamp called ‘The District of Columbia’ could flood if all the ice melts in the Antarctic (where it is the end of summer right now).

Which side will win in 2014? Conservatives still don’t know what to do to help their candidates get elected. A listener email provokes a podcast about how to get involved, what specifically to do and why its important. People still think social media and clever websites will win elections. Do conservatives know the difference between social media tools and real political action? Or, do people actually think protests, websites, meme’s and hanging pictures around your neck to tweet make a difference? Hint; No! Doing the unglamorous, necessary work of day to day politics, wins the race in the end. Protests, websites and social media are tools. “Boots on the ground” and money win elections. What have you done today to ensure that your guy wins on November 4th 2014? Sponsored by Baklund R&D
