Obama - in every speech - tells the world how bad, how wrong America is in dealing with the world. Granted, he easily gathers in the applause of the nations who despise Americans for being the rich generous uncle most have come to for handouts.
We all know how relatives must feel when they come to a rich uncle for a loan. Then they are embarrassed, anxious and momentarily grateful but then resentment begins to blossom especially when they can’t and won’t pay back the loan.
Then the generous loaner is viewed as the enemy. Nations are the same.
America has loaned trillions of dollars to nations who cannot and never intended to pay back the loans. We all remember the nations of Europe which America rescued in times of war, sacrificing American men and treasure. After the wars, those nations America saved hated Uncle Sucker.
Remember the Marshall Plan that rebuilt Europe - including Germany and Japan?
Now President Obama, a charming, articulate man who never ran a business, never did anything of note as a Junior Senator from Illinois, now apologizes for all America because we were 'not generous enough or demanding that borrowing nations use the loans to build the business infrastructure of their nation instead of wasting the money on enriching their political elite'.
Obama doesn’t blame them - he blames America and apologizes in the name of America because we do not follow the theories of his mentors to adopt Socialism, aspects of Communism and his moves to weaken America’s Armed Forces.
We have gone through the photo sensationalism of Abu Ghraib Prison and punished offenders. Now, through the ACLU winning a court battle, Obama orders the Pentagon to further enrage America’s detractors so he can apologize even more. His "Mea Culpa" may make him and Michelle feel noble but, it puts a heavy and dangerous burden on the men we send to defend foreign countries like Afghanistan.
Obama is clearly a rabble-rouser who seems to be paying off a long debt to Arab Muslim nations who financially assisted his rise to power. It doesn’t matter that the Obamas claim a Christian persona because he seems to act more like a dedicated Muslim in heart, spirit and private practice - like his bowing obsequiously to the King of Saudi Arabia. His outreach to Iran, despite their clear record of being anti-American and anti-Israel (and soon to be nuclear-armed) are the acts of a Quisling. Despite his charm and smile, he seems more like his Muslim father than being able and willing to defend Americans.
The Obamas appear dedicated to bankrupting America and bringing us down to the level of Third World Banana Republics. Some call his redistribution of America’s wealth "Socialism" but, whatever it is, it’s clearly a war against the Capitalistic foundations upon which America became the world’s leader.
Obama has zero background or experience as an economist and simply does not know what to do. He is emptying the savings of all Americans, especially retirees, and will soon need to raise taxes above the 54% we already pay in Federal, State and a myriad of other taxes.
Obama may be charismatic but, so were Mussolini, Castro, Hitler and Stalin - each in their own way. Obama is not good for America but, he seems an excellent ally of Iran, Syria, North Korea, Russia and various terrorist Islamists like Hamas, Hezb’Allah and even Fatah. They will all benefit from the tonnage of weapons being sold to Lebanon through Turkey on Obama’s signature. Those weapons will be in the hands of Hezb’Allah promptly upon their arrival in Lebanon.
Obama uses his gift of speech to keep the American public mesmerized by promises he cannot and does not keep. Even the Leftist Media is beginning to crawl out of the tank they have been floating in as they supported Obama as their "messiah". Time Magazine has had Obama as their cover boy about 16 times already. But, the Media are slow to admit their blindness because then they would have to admit to their folly as suckers.
As the Pentagon is forced to release unpleasant photos, Obama will say "I told you so. We Americans are terrible people and must accept world-wide punishment for our crimes."
Frankly, we have done too much for the world’s nations to be laid low by the Obamas who have no pride in what we have done for the world as Americans.
We do not need an apology-maker for our President and certainly not one who feels that Islam can show us the way.
As for the street rabble always ready to pour into the streets or the mindless university students looking for a rousing cause but, never having to pay for their schooling or their underwear or for the Leftist professors who are invariably "Luftmenschen" (air heads) to dream the impossible dreams - all of which only come to their personal reality when the sky actually falls down upon them. These are the mindless who are so enthralled with the illusion of Obama’s role as their Messiah.
Every few centuries we see a rush of false Messiahs. This season’s would-be Messiah are Mahmoud Ahmadinejad as the forerunner of the "Mahdi" (the Muslim Messiah). We have Hugo Chavez of Venezuela who is certain he is the "chosen one". Then we have the Obamas, who seem to agree with the Media and a mix of Americans who think he has dropped from the clouds with a bundle of answers to the world’s problems. When you have apathetic news people, shouting and printing hosannas and college brats, swooning over their latest rock star, you can’t exactly blame Obama for thinking he is the next coming to lead the world.
