Over the years, most of us have made jokes about the French, like:  When Sadam invaded Kuwait, the French surrendered just in case.  That one always makes me laugh.  However, now the French are acting more like the America we are proud of, before we got our cowering socialist president. 

Last week, the Iranian government arrested members of the embassy staff of Britain, one of our closest allies.  But who spoke up rallying to the assistance of the British?  President Sarkozy.  Oh how I wish our president was like President Sarkozy.  Isn’t that incredible to hear?  We have hit bottom and started to dig.  We don’t support our long time allies, and we sit around and wait for the French to lead in a difficult international incident.  I guess our socialist president does not want to offend his friend Ahmadinejad.

The USA’s position over the election of Ahmadinejad, the riots concerning the bogus re-election, and the arrests of the embassy staff has been to say nothing.  I guess President Obama hopes if he sticks his head in the sand and doesn’t speak out for freedom or at least fair elections, the Arab world will continue their ever increasing level of respect and admiration of our Country since he took office.  All it really shows is how weak and naïve this socialist really is.

Now we have President Sarkozy answering the call for international outrage over these false arrests.  Britain is asking that all members of the European Union pull their diplomats out of Iran in protest.  President Sarkozy is there standing up for his ally country.  Where are we?  The silence from Washington DC is typical of our new administration.  Remember that our socialist said he wanted to engage Ahmadinejad in talks.  Now Socialist Obama is being quiet so he doesn’t offend.  I guess birds of a feather…

The administration has been silent because this policy of appeasement concerning Iran has blown up in their faces.  Just like Chamberlain with his appeasement of Hitler, Obama thinks he can beg a terrorist state to like us.  How far we have sunk!  Our leadership in the world has sunk to a new low.  Begging and cowering in front of terrorists and scumbag dictators is not how you become part of the world community.  Leaders protect our Country and offer assistance and support to our allies.  Only through strength can we lead and protect our interests and our citizens.

On another note…

There was another incident on the international frontier.  The situation in Honduras.  Socialist Obama said the coup was illegal and the President should be put back into power.  Now that facts are coming out, that may not be the case.  Wasn’t there a time when this Country actually applauded when socialist or communists were deposed?  I, unlike the administration, will wait for a little more information before talking about Honduras.  Preliminary reports seem to indicate that this was a good thing, a buddy of the communist dictator Chavez goes out the door, but Socialist Obama wasn’t happy?  I wonder what Obama’s political leanings are?  More on this soon.

He then went to Strasbourg, France and called American citizens dismissive and derisive.  Here is an anti-American quote from his speech:

“So we must be honest with ourselves. In recent years we’ve allowed our Alliance to drift. I know that there have been honest disagreements over policy, but we also know that there’s something more that has crept into our relationship. In America, there’s a failure to appreciate Europe’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 America has shown arrogance and been dismissive, even derisive.”

So then he jumped back into the plane paid for by the hard work of those nasty derisive Americans and flew off to Trinidad and Tobago for a meeting of the Summit of the Americas.  Our elected leader, a representative of the people of the United States of America, again disparaged the greatest country in the world:

“While the United States has done much to promote peace and prosperity in the hemisphere, we have at times been disengaged, and at times we sought to dictate our terms. But I pledge to you that we seek an equal partnership. There is no senior partner and junior partner in our relations; there is simply engagement based on mutual respect and common interests and shared values. So I’m here to launch a new chapter of engagement that will be sustained throughout my administration.  The United States will be willing to acknowledge past errors where those errors have been made.”

Thankfully that trip came to an end.  I thought the socialist would divert to Asia and apologize to China for wanting Taiwan’s people to be free.  Maybe he could have stopped by and said he was sorry to Kim Jong Il for causing all his country’s problems.

Fast forward to this week.  The socialist that 65 million of my fellow citizens voted for was again in another country begging for international acceptance and validation.  Socialist Obama believes the United States of America is one of the largest Muslim countries in the world.  Here is the quote:

“Now, the flip side is I think that the United States and the West generally, we have to educate ourselves more effectively on Islam. And one of the points I want to make is, is that if you actually took the number of Muslims Americans, we’d be one of the largest Muslim countries in the world.”

This obvious attempt of pandering to the Muslim world community is not only laughable, it isn’t even accurate.  I wonder what the interns on the White House staff are doing when they create dribble for our Panderer in Chief to say.  A simple search of world statistics on Muslim populations of all countries shows that the United States of America is #52, with 2,350,000.  We are not in the top 60 countries when you look at the number as a percentage of population.  The U.S.A. is at 0.8%.

You could almost dismiss this as political pandering if it were not for a comment the socialist made in Turkey on April 6, 2009, where he said the U.S.A. is not a Christian country.  It is true that our system of government is separate from religion, however, if we are one of “the worlds largest Muslim countries” based on simply having 0.8% of the population belonging to that religion, shouldn’t we be called a Christian nation if 78.5%, or if you prefer numbers, 236,395,000 people consider themselves Christian.

It’s clear that Obama does not have the best interests of the people that elected him in mind.  He certainly does not speak for me.  Every day I hear another extreme liberal/socialist policy being put forward by him and it really makes me sick.  I also don’t understand his obsession with bad-mouthing our Country to the rest of the world.  I’m sure that when the world needs saving from another despot or psychotic dictator, we will stand up and take care of business even though we are derisive and dismissive.
