Republican National Committee Chairman Michael Steele issued the following statement regarding President Obama’s address to the United Nations General Assembly this morning. Here’s the full text:
Last week President Obama backed off his pledge to protect America and our allies in Eastern Europe with a strong missile defense shield. This week, we are seeing the President back off his March pledge of providing the resources necessary for our men and women in Afghanistan. The president has already lost credibility with his commitment to our allies, so why should we believe his words today before the United Nations?
