Worst. President. Ever.

About the only thing more comical than Barack Obama's Nobel Peace Prize was the reaction of those who deemed the award "premature," as if the brilliance of Obama's foreign policy is so self-evident and its success so assured that if only the Norway Five had waited a few years, his Nobel worthiness would have been universally acknowledged.
To believe this, you have to be a dreamy adolescent (preferably Scandinavian and a member of the Socialist International) or an indiscriminate imbiber of White House talking points. After all, this was precisely the spin on the President's various apology tours through Europe and the Middle East: National self-denigration - excuse me, outreach and understanding - is not meant to yield immediate results; it simply plants the seeds of good feeling from which foreign policy successes shall come.
Chauncey Gardiner could not have said it better. Well, at nine months, let's review.
What's come from Obama holding his tongue while Iranian demonstrators were being shot and from his recognizing the legitimacy of a thug regime illegitimately returned to power in a fraudulent election? ((snip))
What's come from Secretary of State Clinton taking human rights off the table on a visit to China and from Obama's shameful refusal to see the Dalai Lama (a postponement, we are told). ((snip))
What's come from the new-respect-for-Muslims Cairo speech and the unprecedented pressure on Israel for a total settlement freeze? ((snip))
And what's come from Obama's single most dramatic foreign policy stroke - the sudden abrogation of missile defense arrangements with Poland and the Czech Republic that Russia had virulently opposed? ((snip))

Well worth reading the rest of the piece. Krauthammer is on target, as usual.
A brilliant commentary by Krauthammer. Amidst the wreckage of Commandante Zero’s foreign and domestic policies, I am comforted by the fact that Krauthammer, being a licensed psychiatrist, has the credentials to send BOzo off to the funny farm.
Best president ever,
if your viewpoint is that America and Western Civ must be destroyed.
I think this opinion article would be of interest to certain people in West Medford.
Dr. Krauthammer is nailing the emerging verdict of the Obamunist Era:
Rank amateurs.
Obama Countdown Clock--counts the days until January 20, 2013. That wasn't good enough for me; I wanted one that would count down in microseconds.
ping for later
Charles Krauthammer opined that the Nobel socialists gave Obozo the award for nothing more than his “general splendidness.”
Wish Charles would run in 2012.
Barack "Splendiferous" 0bama. LOL!
Wow!
Another Krauthammer . . . er, well . . . HAMMER
Bumping for great justice
I just realized obambi is just like the character Chauncy Gardiner who every one around him thought he was brillant and hung on his every word but he turned out to be a simpleton. Krauthammer is spot on.
We need to impeach him way before he can totally destroy the US nuclear arsenal, and all of our early warning mechanisms, in an another unilateral gesture.
Affirmative Action president.
