For Obama, the World Looks Far Different Than Expected

It seems the inexperienced man-child truly believed his own propoganda, and that by BS speeches and fawning out-reach programs, the Muslim world would truly come to love the USA.

“We have to think through strategically what’s going to be in our long-term national interests.”

This grifter never thinks any further ahead than his next FREE MEAL or Tee Time!

The DAMAGE he has done to America will be felt for DECADES to come - should we not be nuked prior to that! *SPIT*

"U.S. influence is declining in the Middle East..."

But, Obama's plan to be a global community agitator and give aid and comfort to Islamic Jihad is working well.

The world, including Putin, recognizes our what-me-worry golfer-in-chief for what he truly is: a rodeo clown.

Nice summary of his domestic and foreign policy achievements.

I think this sums up the leadership of dear leader well

We know that Obama is a puppet because on his own he is in way over his head. The puppet masters are the ones here that have ‘miscalculated’. Who are the puppet masters?

I asked years ago of longtime union member who was known to me personally why he voted for Obama and he went on and on about Bush’s wars. I asked in 2011 why Obama was bombing Libya and he didn’t have an answer which was no surprise.

The bombing of Libya and supporting the overthrow of Mubarak in Egypt were linked by a goal of installing radical clerics associated with the Muslim Brotherhood.

The puppet masters are closely affiliated with Islamic radicals. No other explanation exists that I can think of.

Why did we bomb Libya?
*****************
March 22, 2011
More bombs bursting in Libya. What for?

Wait a minute. How did this happen? A month or so ago, massive bombing of Libya was on no one’s agenda. Libya’s government was just as tyrannical and its leader was just as loony then as now. Other governments around the world were even worse, and still are. In fact, among the usual enthusiasts for this sort of thing, Libya was considered one of the least urgent cases of awfulocracy because we had supposedly de-fanged Col. Moammar Kadafi in 2003, when he suddenly surprised everyone by promising to dismantle his secret nuclear program, permit inspections and abide by the terms of the Nuclear Nonproliferation Treaty.

There's a reason why, when you listen to what's happened around Egypt and Syria, that everybody asks what the U.S. is doing.

Yes, there is, you moron, it's because nobody knows. Ourselves included.

We called this on FR from Day One. Anyone who expected any foreign policy expertise out of this administration was smoking crack. What were we looking at? A one-term junior Senator without a single foreign policy bill? A former First Lady whose signal accomplishment along those lines was kissing Mrs. Arafat? A cabinet full of superannuated 70s radicals who were sure that their time was come at last?

What we got was exactly what that lineup card full of political clowns predicted. We had Hil presenting our former Cold War foes with a plastic button inscribed with a misspelled word. We had 0bama presenting our most loyal ally with the contemptuous treatment of Churchill's bust and the grotesquely inappropriate presentation to their head of state of an iPod with his own speeches on it and to their Prime Minister a set of video recordings in a format he couldn't view. This is worse than ham-handed, the most junior visa-stamper in the State Department should have caught it. 0bama wasn't listening because he didn't care and is too stupid to think it important.

This callous amateurism had a rather greater impact when human lives were lost due to it: Seal Team Six, the men at Benghazi, the long-suffering Libyan and Egyptian and now Syrian citizens who find themselves wondering just what the hell the U.S. thinks it's doing, and rightfully so.

It can get worse, much worse, in the three years cardboard cutout of a politician has to work. He managed to go from the incompetent to the downright malign in placing in the office of Secretary of State a fatuous poseur who has never believed that the United States was a force for good in the world from the first moment he betrayed it and his fellow servicemen through a wretched career of carping, hypercriticism, and deliberate subversion at the beck and call of his political mentor, one of the most evil and harmful politicians in American history, Teddy Kennedy.

That's what we have for a government and will have for the next three years. The upshot of this wreck of a foreign policy will likely be a transition from Drones Over Pakistan to Drones Over Flyover Country. We may come to envy the Egyptians.

Exactly what we all expected.

This is because the liberal approach to foreign policy, just like everything else, does not work, because it cannot work.

Then again, maybe Obama’s plan is to make most of the rest of the world so angry at America that they will unite and destroy us.

So, the world now hates us MORE than it did when Bush was president. It’s amazing to me that there seems to be more people in the Middle East that hate muslim extremists than there are in the U.S.

And by the way, if Bush lied about weapons of mass destruction, so did obama.

(AP takedown of Obama's failed F.P.)

The problem is that 0bama is so egotistical and naive that no one who actually can put 2 and 2 together and not get the ivy league answer of 5, can tell him anything.

The strongest challenge to Obama’s philosophy is the fact that unicorns are not real the twit is clueless about everything.
Dumb and dangerous is the only game he knows.

This would have been a great opportunity for the AP to apologize for not doing their job during the 2008 and 2012 elections.
