President Obama indignantly denied Mitt Romney's charge in Monday's final debate that his foreign policy amounts to "an apology tour" around the world.

"This has been probably the biggest whopper that's been told during the course of this campaign," Obama protested. "And every fact-checker and every reporter who's looked at it, governor, has said this is not true."

In fact, the president has followed a "doctrine of mea culpa" crafted by a handful of radical advisers who have urged him to, in so many words, apologize for America's war on terror and nuclear superiority.

• Samantha Power. "U.S. foreign policy has to be rethought," according to Obama's national security adviser for multilateral affairs and human rights. "Instituting a doctrine of mea culpa would enhance our credibility by showing that American decision-makers do not endorse the sins of their predecessors."

Power has suggested the president literally bow to foreign leaders, as atonement for Americans' "sins" — and that's exactly what he's done.

A former New Republic journalist, Power is also a 9/11 apologist who thinks Islamic fanatics hate America because it backs governments that repress them — such as the Mubarak regime in Cairo.

"It's not a coincidence that all but one of the 9/11 hijackers came not from axis of evil countries but from American allies, from Egypt to Saudi Arabia," she says. Power thinks the 9/11 massacre helped "Americans empathize with the victims of genocide."

She redefines U.S. vital interests to include genocide, poverty and disease, and was the main White House aide agitating for removal of Libyan strongman Moammar Gadhafi on "humanitarian grounds."

• Anne-Marie Slaughter. The former State Department policy chief, who last year returned to Princeton University, also has advised the president to apologize for the war on terror.

"The president must ask Americans to acknowledge to ourselves and to the world that we have made serious, even tragic, mistakes in the aftermath of Sept. 11 — in invading Iraq, in condoning torture and flouting international law, and in denying the very existence of global warming," Slaughter said.

• Rashad Hussain. The White House adviser-turned Mideast envoy helped Obama kick off his apology tour in 2009 with a remorseful speech to Muslims in Cairo that he helped draft.

In the 6,000-word speech, which never denounced "terrorism," Obama apologized for the war on terror, lamenting "it led us to act contrary to our ideals." He vowed to close Gitmo, the detention camp at the Guantanamo Bay Naval Base in Cuba, and take other "concrete actions to change course."

Hussain also helped engineer the Muslim Brotherhood's rise to power in Egypt as Obama's envoy to the Organization of Islamic Cooperation, a powerful bloc of 57 Muslim governments that some say is a caliphate in the making.

As a Muslim activist, Hussain regularly spoke to Brotherhood front groups and defended convicted terrorists.

"Naturally, you have to worry that he will be the OIC's representative to the U.S. rather than the other way around," said former federal prosecutor Andrew McCarthy.

Since Hussain has advised the president, the Mideast has turned more anti-American and more committed to Israel's destruction. Egypt is buying submarines, remilitarizing the Sinai in violation of the Israeli peace treaty and forming a new alliance with nuclear Iran and Turkey.

Mubarak turned down a nuke deal with Russia. Will the new Muslim Brotherhood regime? It's teaming up with Tehran, which has threatened to wipe Tel Aviv off the map with nuclear missiles.

Meantime, Obama's top nuclear arms negotiator is trying to undermine Israel's nuclear deterrent — along with America's.

• Rose Gottemoeller. Echoing the president, the top State official thinks America is a global "bully" and that its nuclear superiority has created a global arms race.

She argues the U.S. must show humility by signing nuclear disarmament treaties and become strategically equal with Russia and China.

Gottemoeller, a longtime Democrat activist, justifies the radical goal of slashing America's nuclear weapons arsenal to "zero" — unilaterally, if necessary — on a Biblical passage: "They shall beat their swords into plowshares." The verse happens to be the same one anti-nuclear protestors recently scrawled on a U.S. nuclear weapons research facility in Tennessee.

Gottemoeller in 2010 told a "social justice" group that it inspired her to work harder to cut both strategic and tactical warheads, along with nuclear attack targets in Russia and China.

She also wants to ban testing of all remaining warheads followed by a ban on fuel production. At the same time, she wants to scrap U.S. missile defense.

Most Cold war babies grew up hating the Soviet Union. Not "Rosie" Gottemoeller. She admired the former communist superpower. Her father told her the Soviets were better at science, so she studied Russian and immersed herself in Soviet propaganda. She's visited Moscow so many times she now considers it her "second home."

"She loves to shmooze the Russians," said national security expert Bill Gertz — and the Chinese, who she's invited back to the nuclear weapons labs. After Gottemoeller kicked open Los Alamos as head of the Clinton Energy Department's national security office, Chinese espionage exploded.
