Obama Bows to Indian Parliament, Acknowledges Decline of U.S. Dominance
Fox Nation ^ | 11-8-10

Posted on 11/08/2010 11:51:57 AM PST by My Favorite Headache

Implicitly acknowledging the decline of American dominance, Barack Obama on Sunday said the US was no longer in a position to "meet the rest of the world economically on our terms".

Speaking at a town hall meeting in Mumbai, he said, "I do think that one of the challenges that we are going face in the US, at a time when we are still recovering from the financial crisis is, how do we respond to some of the challenges of globalisation? The fact of the matter is that for most of my lifetime and I'll turn 50 next year - the US was such an enormously dominant economic power, we were such a large market, our industry, our technology, our manufacturing was so significant that we always met the rest of the world economically on our terms. And now because of the incredible rise of India and China and Brazil and other countries, the US remains the largest economy and the largest market, but there is real competition."

2012!

Can’t get here fast enough. Zero’s apology tour continues. He’d planned to stop at Hiroshima to apologize for World War 2. Handlers decided that wasn’t the best political move.

It’s only fitting, Obama being the author of America’s decline.

I wish Obama would go back where he came from, wherever that is on his birth certificate.

We have regulated and taxed our way out of economic dominance, and he is proud of that.

Our fall began decades ago. NAFTA took away a lot of our manufacturing. The unions did the rest and they’re not finished yet. So obama is right. However, a president who loves his country would have said “But, we’ll be back!”

If he says this, does this mean the rest of the world can stop saying, “We want you to stop putting your nose in our business. Give us money!”?

Apologize to the American people for your failure.

And get out of the top executive position.
