President Obama returns this week from his whirlwind, “It’s good to be me” tour through continental Europe and Asia. Many here stateside are beginning to whisper that Obama is the most arrogant leader this country has seen in a generation. He holds Americans and the Constitution in utter contempt.
He fires private sector CEO’s, wages class warfare on taxpayers (the top 1% income earners pay 40% of all federal income taxes, and the bottom 50% pay a minuscule 3%), and covets open-ended power to spend taxpayers money without check that would have made Gosplaners in the Soviet Union green with envy. He turns the Constitution on its head by describing the payment of taxes as a “patriotic duty” and staggering government spending as the beneficence of his band of Platonic Guardians. He has erased the vital distinction between public and private.
Mr. Obama has taken Narcissus to a new level. He is mesmerized by his own words. He wields no delusions of his own grandeur. However, when he goes abroad he can't be effacing enough for the bows and scraping to those luminaries around him. Remember the King of Saudia Arabia, to whom our President gave obeisance, is basica lly the leader of the Wahhabi branch of Islam. Bowing to this king signals submission to Islam. Indeed, “Islam” means “submission”. And in Saudi Arabia that means the suppression of Christianity or Judaism. President Obama has apologized for the United States history with Native Americans and blacks. He gazes at radical Islam with rose-colored glasses.
Are you getting this picture? Is it becoming clearer exactly what is beginning to happen to our beloved America?

Saudi Arabia - Al Riyadh - Original Article (Arabic)
Barack Obama is a new American phenomenon. He hasn’t violated or failed to abide by even a single protocol. Not overwhelmed by pride over post World War II America or its global dominance after the demise of the Soviet Union, he is the new face. He has shown a sense of national duty that reflects the true image of America - an America that seeks to settle its differences with the world and develop cooperation and partnership without arrogance and talk of the use of force. We have seen this in the renewal of Europe’s alliance with the superpower, the nurturing of ties with Asia and the Islamic World, and the pride felt in Africa over the character of a man of their race, who has reached the most powerful position in the world. All of these qualities have won President Obama admiration, rather than the suspicion that destroyed America’s reputation during the two terms of Bush the younger.
Typical CYA. Mr. Williams was enamored with Comrade Zero during the campaign and my guess he voted race over competence. I have lost any respect for him and his fellow race hustler, General Powell.
It’s nice of Armstrong to come on board and see the light. During the election, I remember how he was wavering and thinking about voting for Obama.
Oops! Thanks.
Here ya go.

LOL! The link doesn't go to this article, btw, and I couldn't find the rest of it.
Thanks!
Most arrogant President in several generations - most arrogant since Franklin De Roosevelt.
Most incompetent since Jimmy Carter.
Most obsequious (with respect to foreign leaders) since the country’s founding.
de nada...LOL
‘Suboptimal’? I’d say ‘nearly pessimal’.
