		<description>By late 2007, after listening to a couple of interviews and speeches, I became convinced that Obama has contempt for America and that he does not care much about other people in general. He is no &quot;imperfect servant&quot; of the people. Why would he fight for them? He will spend your money on all kinds of causes or surrender to the world just to make a point but he does not really care what that money does or whether he actually achieves anything good.</description>

		<description>Obama is a weak leader, but that&#039;s OK with the Libs. They like weakness in America, and they sure get a hard-on when China and Russia exert their power.

They see America as a destabilizing force, and so the more America is weakened, the more stable the world becomes. However, if another 9/11 occurs or a war breaks out, they will never blame the weak-kneed policies of their Liberal do-nothing President; instead they will blame George Bush.

For Libs, it&#039;s all about ideology, not principle. They don&#039;t care if Georgia is destroyed or if Israel is nuked out of existence. So long as they feel good about themselves and their weak leaders, that&#039;s all that matters. But no amount of weak leadership can ever overcome the emptiness at the core of the Liberal heart. 

Obama craves the accolades from the vacuous press and the irrelevant Europeans. Libs from broken homes are bad for America&#039;s health.</description>

BTW, blue lips are a sign there isn&#039;t enough oxygen getting to the head.</description>

		<description>I just lifted this, verbatim, from Jack Kinsella&#039;s &quot;Omega News Letter&quot;. (www.omegaletter.com) Any body watch Greta yesterday?  Mr. Kinsella wrote:

&quot;Dick Morris was on Greta Van Susteren yesterday explaining some of the G-20&#039;s decisions. Quoting from the transcript (posted at my blog):

&quot;Literally from April 2nd of this year -- that is, today -- it&#039;s a whole new world of financial regulation in which, essentially, all of the U.S. regulatory bodies and all U.S. companies are put under international regulation, international supervision. It really amounts to a global economic government.&quot;

Morris goes on to explain that it will be headed by an Italian banker named Mario Draghi, and &quot;populated largely by the European bank executives, will make the decisions on what standards our own SEC and Federal Reserve board should apply to all firms in the United States of any significant size about executive compensation, market activities, and a whole range of issues that used to be under free enterprise reserved for private decision making.&quot;

&quot;And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon.&quot; Revelation 13:11

Mario Draghi lives in Rome. And &#039;Draghi&#039; is Italian for &#039;dragon.&#039; (Hey! Izzat Rod Serling?)&quot;

I laughed so loud that my kids, in the next room, came in to find out what was so amusing.</description>

		<description>Bambi, who wants the world to love us, now has the world laughing at and despising us.  One of my favorite bits from &quot;The Wind and the Lion&quot; is when Teddy Roosevelt compares the American character to that of the grizzly and then points out that that is how the rest of the world should always see the United States:

T. Roosevelt: The American grizzly is a symbol of the American character: strength, intelligence, ferocity. Maybe a little blind and reckless at times... but courageous beyond all doubt. And one other trait that goes with all previous.

2nd Reporter: And that, Mr. President?

Theodore Roosevelt: Loneliness. The American grizzly lives out his life alone. Indomitable, unconquered - but always alone. He has no real allies, only enemies, but none of them as great as he.

2nd Reporter: And you feel this might be an American trait?

Theodore Roosevelt: Certainly. The world will never love us. They respect us - they might even grow to fear us. But they will never love us, for we have too much audacity! And, we&#039;re a bit blind and reckless at times too.

2nd Reporter: Are you perhaps referring to the situation in Morocco and the Panama Canal.

Theodore Roosevelt: If you say so... The American grizzly embodies the spirit of America. He should be our symbol! Not that ridiculous eagle - he&#039;s nothing more than a dandified vulture.</description>

		<description>&lt;strong&gt;President Obama does not excel at caving&lt;/strong&gt; ... to everybody.

He can stand up to America&#039;s Banking CEO&#039;s:&lt;a href=&quot;http://hotair.com/archives/2009/04/03/obama-threatens-bankers-im-the-only-thing-standing-between-you-and-the-pitchforks/&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;
&quot;My administration,&quot; the president added, &quot;is the only thing between you and the pitchforks.&quot;&lt;/a&gt;

And while in France, he can stand up to America as a whole:

&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/northamerica/usa/barackobama/5104350/Republicans-slam-Barack-Obama-over-American-arrogance-speech.html&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;In America, there is a failure to appreciate Europe&#039;s leading role in the world. Instead of celebrating your dynamic union and seeking to partner with you to meet common challenges, there have been times where &lt;strong&gt;America has shown arrogance and been dismissive, even derisive.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;

So, let&#039;s give President Obama his due. The President only excels at caving to America&#039;s foreign competitors and enemies. And he certainly excels at &lt;a href=&quot;http://infidelsarecool.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/obama-bows-to-saudi-king.jpg&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;bowing down in submission before Saudi King Abdullah&lt;/a&gt;.</description>

		<description>Obama scares me and I also can&#039;t look at him or his wife, sorry, no, I take that back, I&#039;m not sorry, I don&#039;t trust him at all. I am not convinced that he isn&#039;t with the Saudis.</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;Obama’s Grand Tour of Europe leaves Diehl more convinced that Obama is a weak sister, unable to stand up for America’s interests&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Indeed. 

The picture up front - Obama, with the other hand, squeezes the Russian/Italian&#039;s (what he thinks are) ping-pong-balls. In essence they&#039;re having the last laugh.</description>
