If it had the wit, the Obama administration would be not angered, but appropriately humiliated. President Obama has, once again, been totally outmaneuvered by Vladimir Putin. Two days earlier at the United Nations, Obama had welcomed the return, in force, of the Russian military to the Middle East

But it doesn't bother me at all, either.
2008 was the year I lost respect for so many of the brilliant people. I couldn’t understand how the truth about Obama was so obvious to a working slob like me, but completely eluded thinkers like Krauthammer.
Amazing how one can be so spectacularly wrong, yet remain firmly in possession of his platform.
Obama knew the election’s outcome for sure?
Obama learned to speak from Reverend Wright.
He heard every word Reverend Wright said. People like Kraut totally ignored the truth about Obama. I imagine Charles even voted for him. But then, the opposition was McCain, so I guess it would be understandable.
Now, that we have all witnessed what a complete corny jackass sleaze Obama is, I am sure they feel cheated.
No—I remember this well. Kraut is really kind of a jocksniffer of the Ivy urban elitist nitwits. He was always, “So eloquent! So intelligent, so intellectual!” Had a real crush on Obama. Doctor Smartypants thinks in a shallow bubble.
In reality, Obama had welcomed Russian leadership since he is totally incapable of producing any leadership of his own.
Tried to search it up... It would be in 2008-2009 when at the “all stars” desk of the six o’clock news at Fox. Kraut kept calling him “eloquent” and I kept asking the TV...”Just give me one example of an eloquent sentence from this telepromptered punk”—never got one. Kraut was really on a narcissistic high...he thought he and Obama shared some intellectual plane. Sad to say—Kraut was right!
Is that what this is all about? Obama being a good speaker? Well, guess what? He is, teleprompter notwithstanding. So put me in the rank of Krauthammer.
[Is that what this is all about? Obama being a good speaker?]
Now, Iraq is not a perfect place. It has many challenges ahead. But were leaving behind a sovereign, stable and self-reliant Iraq, with a representative government that was elected by its people. Were building a new partnership between our nations. And we are ending a war not with a final battle, but with a final march toward home.
This is an extraordinary achievement, nearly nine years in the making. And today, we remember everything that you did to make it possible.
—BARACK OBAMA, December 14, 2011
I remember a crowd full of the slack-jawed, the crowds you see in Euope at riots and soccer games...but can you provide me with any brilliant take-away lines? The only speech BO made that was any good was his ingenue appearance at the 2004 convention, where he seemed to excite a sexualized response from all—male, female and whatever— After that, his language took on the style of a pagan incantation. “Hope/change/hope/change”... Nothing more memorable than that.
