Prez comes across as a gullible sap
NY Post ^ | September 24, 2009 | Rich Lowry

Posted on 09/24/2009 3:25:30 AM PDT by Scanian

President Obama yesterday did his best impression of a high-school soph omore participating in his first Model UN meeting, retailing pious clichés he learned from his pony-tailed social studies teacher.

Even Woodrow Wilson might have blanched at the mushy-headed exhortations to world peace and collective action better suited to a college dorm-room bull session or a holiday-season Coca-Cola commercial.

"No nation can or should try to dominate another nation," Obama intoned. "No world order that elevates one nation or group of people over another will succeed. No balance of power among nations will hold."

Obama's speech reminded me of a video floating around the Internet of some woman who addressed a city council earlier this year. She had the same platitudes and foolish ideas.

Does Bill Ayers have a ponytail?

When the next plane slams into a Manhattan skyscraper, or a truck bomb goes off and it’s discovered that someone Obama loves, really loves, has been murdered by his Muslim pals....will he care? Will he wake up at that point and realize he’s been brainwashed since kindergarten? Somehow I doubt it. This fool will take his cherished delusions with him to the grave, and in the meantime, he’s costing American lives. Every single day.

Be very concerned about the millennium development goals - they subvert American sovereignty and include unconstitutional gun restrictions.

What a LOSER Hussain is - he’s like the family member everyone tolerates and says nice things to but really no one has respect for.

“The history of the failure of war can almost be summed up in two words: too late.
* Too late in comprehending the deadly purpose of a potential enemy.
* Too late in realizing the mortal danger.
* Too late in preparedness.
* Too late in uniting all possible forces for resistance.
* Too late in standing with one’s friends.”

- General Douglas Macarthur

We all know there is only one person megalomaniac Obama loves, and it's the one he sees in the mirror. Probably very frequently.

That was a classic. "And the land is free, and the food should be free, and then the farmers can sell to food at the farmer's market..."

Brain dead.

Obama is going to get a lot of people killed. Mark my words. Between his display of weakness in public, and his dismantling of security mechanisms/apparatus such as OSSSO (specialized Office of Security Strategy and Special Operations) he's practically inviting the jihadis to act, and they'd be crazy not to take advantage of these windows of opportunity. I would if I were them, and I would do it with prejudice.

As an aside, regardless of how I personally feel about the Muslim gathering on Capitol Hill this Friday, which disgusts me, I would be very nervous if I were the White House.

Somewhere in the internet ether are some of Brack's writings when he was a lecturer at the University of Chicago Law school. I think some of his test questions are real howlers as I recall.

This really is how dumb he is. We are so screwed.

I guess Obama should stop trying to dominate Israel and tell them what to do.

Can someone do a mash up, splicing her speech into his so the similarities become obvious? I like the “model U.N.” description; it is dead on.

President Obama yesterday did his best impression of a high-school sophomore participating in his first Model UN meeting,

I had not thought of that but it's a great analogy. I participated in 4 model UN's in high school (3 times on the security council: Israel, Soviet Union and PLO as an observer) and he sounded exactly like the saps that took that thing so seriously. All "world peace, unicorns and rainbows"...and completely detached from reality.

I've been saying similar things as well. This clown is incredibly dangerous.
