“In foreign policy, the only thing worse than not doing something is do...” — Kathleen Troia McFarland Quote

“In foreign policy, the only thing worse than not doing something is doing something that fails or makes the situation worse.”

“When the commander-in-chief sends Americans to fight and die, it should be only to protect our vital national interests, not for his own personal, political gain.”

“Foreign policy is something Americans care about when the economy is good, and when it isn't, they hardly notice it. It's hard to worry about what happens in the Mideast when you don't have a job in the Midwest.”

“Krispy Kreme claims the 'batter is the best part.' Same with an Obama speech. It's all about what's on the outside, not what's inside.”

“The problem with people who live in a world of speeches and books and theories is they don't know how to fix things in the real world when they go wrong. They feign ignorance, blame others, and make another eloquent speech.”

“Trade is an integral part of our foreign policy.”

“We need to put human rights, a belief in multilateralism and respect for international law back at the heart of foreign policy.”

“Indeed, for Russia, inconsistency is an integral part of its foreign policy strategy, particularly under Putin.”

“I consider myself neither liberal nor conservative when it comes to foreign policy.”

“President Obama's greatest failure is his failure regarding foreign policy and national security.”

“Americans must step back and realize that an effective foreign policy is very difficult to devise, and we must present a united front to make it work.”
