Obama in Africa: Where Multiculturalism Hits the Wall

Don’t you hate it when multiculturalism bites you in the ass? 

African leaders last week rejected President Obama’s self-righteous proclamation of American moral superiority with respect to recognizing the rights of homosexuals. He criticized his host nations’ refusal to accept homosexuality and gay unions as normal.

Cardinal John Njue, Archbishop of Nairobi and president of the Kenyan Episcopal Conference, effectively schooled him on both good manners and good faith:

“Those people who have already ruined their society…let them not become our teachers to tell us where to go,” said Njue in response to Obama’s statements promoting same-sex marriage. “I think we need to act according to our own traditions and our faiths.”

And from Kenya, homeland of Obama’s father, lest we ever forget, Deputy President William Ruto said:

“Those who believe in other things, that is their business…We believe in God.”

That must have served as a particularly bracing rebuke: our el Presidente is  accustomed to being idolized by the masses and underlings. His proclamations are never, ever seriously challenged by the little people. Bad enough he’s had to be annoyed by that little ex-KGB gnat from Russia, but who, exactly, do these tin pot African leaders think they are?

So listen up progressives, here’s the take-away: you can’t have it both ways. If you cram multiculturalism down our throats, you can’t then turn around and tell other cultures to modify their societal norms to comport with your concept of superior moral codes. That just seems to be so, so…colonial!  But since Progressives like our President suffer from either an inability to recognize contradiction or a high tolerance for incongruity, this internal conflict eludes them...

No, you can just post it all here.

Did you know that having multiple accounts is a banning offense?

This courageous man of God in Nairobi certainly doesn’t sound a bit like our benighted Episcopal bishops.

The only true multi-cultural card Barry has to play in Africa is LGBT. I bet that goes over like a lead balloon with the folks there.

African Episcopals consider American Epicopals mission territory.

Barry praises Bush’s PEPFAR AIDS program there, while simultaneously advocating homosexuality. Just wow.

Speaking of obama, I did a search on "Pride" and "Haughty spirit" to look into and read up on a bad feeling I keep having.

Apparently, that is a really bad combo anywhere you find it.

Very poor return/results, both short and long term.

Chewie, lock in the auxiliary power, turn the ship around!

Why - that man must be a racist to criticize our black President that way!

The courageous man is a Catholic cardinal, not an Episcopal bishop.

I don’t know if you saw Mr and Mrs Bush on This Week with Geo. “Stepp On All Of Us” yesterday. They were in Africa with their HIV and Uterine Cancer project.

The one question W dodged was gay rights in Africa. He said he was “out of politics” and wanted to focus on his health mission.

Yet he commented on other political issues asked of him. I found that curious.

Everybody needs a purpose.

Yours seems to be tirelessly keeping us all 'safe' from bloggers.

Thanks for your service.

Safe from them? Hell, they ain’t dangerous.

I just like to shut down their deceitful and duplicitous hit-scamming games.

Doesn’t matter — his only real agenda is complete control and uncontested political power.

Thanks NOBO2012.

You're right. The next big question is whether or not the Republicans have the stones to challenge his imperial presidency.
Will SCOTUS decide that we remain a nation of laws and prevent Obama from re-writing laws or nullifying them by non-enforcement or creating new law (his “Dream Act”) vie “Executive Order” or will they force the Constitution on him?
Or will they decide we have evolved into an “Imperial Presidency”?
I don't know which way this court will decide, but we must find out.
