Barack Obama has just returned from his first trip to Europe. He declared the trip a triumph. The Europeans are calling him a ’surrender monkey’ and a ‘pantywaist’. He had one gaffe after the next while there and failed to get any cooperation from the Europeans on any of his ideas. Read about it below.

Barack Obama

Abraham Lincoln famously said ‘You can fool some of the people all of the time, and all of the people some of the time, but you can not fool all of the people all of the time.’ Since Barack Obama claims to be a great admirer of Lincoln, we can only hope that he has actually read that and might (MIGHT!) take a lesson from it. As it is, it seems that he’s running out of people to fool.

There have been many articles and much talk about Obama’s recent trip to Europe. Much of the press in Europe was less than flattering to the new and naive President of the United States. Some of it has been fearful of what this most powerful man in the world will do, or not do, and how that will affect our allies in the world. Some of it has been downright insulting to the man who appears to have hopes of conquering the world with his charm. Unbeknownst to him, the world is more interested in action than rhetoric and while Obama can talk the ears off anyone within hearing distance, he’s long on words and short on action. That doesn’t garner the support of the world who depends on the United States for their own security.

And thus, we have op-eds like this one coming out of the United Kingdom.

Barack is not the first New World ingenue to discover that European leaders will load him with praise, struggle sycophantically to be photographed with him and outdo him in Utopian rhetoric. But when it comes to the critical moment of opening their wallets - suddenly it is flag-day in Aberdeen. Okay, put the G20 down to inexperience, beginner’s nerves, what you will. …

Then came the dramatic bit, the authentic West Wing script, with the President wakened in the middle of the night in Prague to be told that Kim Jong-il had just launched a Taepodong-2 missile. America had Aegis destroyers tracking the missile and could have shot it down. But Uncle Sam had a sterner reprisal in store for l’il ole Kim (as Dame Edna might call him): a multi-megaton strike of Obama hot air.

“Rules must be binding,” declared Obama, referring to the fact that Kim had just breached UN Resolutions 1695 and 1718. “Violations must be punished.” (Sounds ominous.) “Words must mean something.” (Why, Barack? They never did before, for you - as a cursory glance at your many speeches will show.)

President Pantywaist is hopping mad and he has a strategy to cut Kim down to size: he is going to slice $1.4bn off America’s missile defence programme, presumably on the calculation that Kim would feel it unsporting to hit a sitting duck, so that will spoil his fun.

Watch out, France and Co, there is a new surrender monkey on the block and, over the next four years, he will spectacularly sell out the interests of the West with every kind of liberal-delusionist initiative on nuclear disarmament and sitting down to negotiate with any power freak who wants to buy time to get a good ICBM fix on San Francisco, or wherever. If you thought the world was a tad unsafe with Dubya around, just wait until President Pantywaist gets into his stride.

Obama has a LOT to learn and a dangerous world to learn it in. :sigh:

Its time to get down on our knees and beg God to save our Great Nation. We don’t deserve it. We’ve gotten fat and sassy with prosperity and easy living. We’ve forgotten the wonder of the gift our forefathers gave us and squandered the wealth of freedom and individual rights they bequeathed us with the blood of Patriots. But maybe, God will give us another chance.

I’m afraid the cure to this cultural upheaval is going to be painful for our country.
