Business Insider ^ | 9/28/14 | Colin Campbell

President Barack Obama wants everyone to know "how we roll": The US always takes the lead in international crises. In a "60 Minutes" interview Sunday evening, Obama was asked why the US is contributing such a significant portion of the military coalition against the jihadist group known as the Islamic State or ISIS. Obama responded by arguing that other countries were not stepping up. "When trouble comes up anywhere in the world, they don´t call Beijing, they don´t call Moscow. They call us.

Moscow has a habit of helping other countries whether they need help or not.

As if any country would consider calling you, limp dick?

You are an international joke, and you are beginning to suspect it, or this comment would never have happened, would it?

Can anyone even fantasize Dubya (with all his faults) making such a statement?

Yah that’s right. Remember it well. Only problem is, we never do get the oil, do we?

In the meanwhile, we learned to extract our own, rendering us once again energy independent.

Much to the chagrin of Obama and greeniacs everywhere!

I did not see the interview. And I do not in general agree with the Resident. But there is an element of truth in the statement that the US is typically contacted first because we are expected to deliver.”

I never watch his interviews as I cannot stand to look at the pompous fop. But yes, the world hates us when we arr the so-called bullying cowboys and then flip flops and runs crying for our help when we let a weak ignoramus upset their applecart and cause worldwide chaos.

No, they don’t call Moscow when they need help, but they are learning not to bother calling us either thanks to Dumbo’s “leadership”.

“It sends it’s children off to die...and expects nothing in return.”

That’s about it.

We throw money around like confetti and are just as reckless with the lives of our soldiers.

That’s because idiots in DC THINK that is politics and we can get/hold power and the good opinion of the world when we do this..... NOT

WE ARE A JOKE and never more than NOW!!!!!!!

Could that be because it is highly engineered confetti.

The money is not randomly thrown. The money is always thrown so a Democrat apparatchik catches most or even all of it.

What you perceive as throwing confetti tis treasury robbing

The Democrat party is a criminal enterprise.

We can’t continue to save the world every time a problem or disaster comes up. It will be our downfall eventually.
