michael posener. >> i have a couple of reactions to.hat first of all, i think when we look at ourselves we're not doing it from a position of weakness. we're doing it from a position of strength. this is a country founded on principles of human rights and democracy. thinks part of our d.n.a. and it served us well for 230 years to be a leader on human rights in our own society. the idea that we would continue to improve our society only strengthens that perception and it makes us more capable and more effective as we go out in the world. the second thing is that i think the notion of principled pragmatism is exactly the right way to approach these issues. and i don't think it's a contradiction. we are not saying that we've abandoned our prince. the in fact we're living our principles in our foreign policy. we're pushing for things like the right of people to practice their own religion and to speak freely and participate in a aç; political process. those are things we believe in. we are very determined to do it in a way to get a practica

bush said. >> lehrer: do you agree with that, michael? well, he quoted john kennedy at american university in '63, a speech that was called a peace speech with an opening to the soviets, so i think that's right. but it also underscored for me this almost agonizing balancing act that barack obama is trying to carry off. because here he is on one side perhaps the dominant wing of his party always antiwar, they're rather unhappy about if fact that he's sending 30,000 more troops to afghanistan. and then on the other side perhaps led by dick cheney, a movement that is essentially saying barack obama is shutting down guantanamo and he's ending things that he calls torture, all this is going to make us weaker. and they will say if god forbid there's ever any kind of an attack on american interests that obama encouraged this. so here he is trying to do all these things at once and i think all those things were in the speech. >> lehrer: joe bottum, do you agree there's some politics at work here as well as morality and all these other things we'v
