He backed down to the EU on trade, Iran on terror...now China on currency manipulation.

All in one week!

It makes me long for the days when we had a strong and brave iron-willed leader like Jimmy Carter.

Or how about someone who didn’t say or do stupid things themselves or their staff. He has NEVER gotten called on his antics (Lipstick on a pig, flipping the bird) and he is like a spoiled teenager that runs off at the mouth.

obama is an idiot; he has absolutely no idea what he is doing in international diplomacy. He’s not dealing with the stupid American electorate here. Foreign leaders are smart and have memories. They are not going to forget that he said something one day and backed away from it the next.

They are going to walk all over him. And us.

the EU is right to rebel against stupid Congressional interference in internationl trade that could divide the West in a global recession and set off trade wars with long lasting impacts

and Geithner’s gratuitous snipe at China during these times when he (we) need their cooperation in the financial markets- makes his judgement suspect on more that his inability to use turbo tax

but Obama IS a naive overbearing idiot who has been waiting all his life to appease the rest of the world for America’s “sins”

“Blinky Obama”, because when the world farts, he blinks.

This guy makes one major policy blunder every day and the media is still fawning over him like he's the smartest man who ever lived.

This guy is not qualified to run a donut shop and yet he's now the supposed leader of the world.

On top of that he's chosen Hillary Clinton to be secretary of state and her only diplomatic qualifications are that she used to bake cookies for foreign dignitaries at the White House.

This is going to be a long four years.

He’s screwing up faster than I thought imaginable. At this rate he’s likely to start a nuclear war between the US and the US.

This is sarcasm, right?

Humor?

I recognize humor and sarcasm....

So far, Zero is just like Jimmy Carter, only faster and sporting a tan....

Reality is a bitch. The Chinese have over $1 trillion in hard currency reserves and they are buying our T-bills, which enables the Treasury to print money to fund the stimulus package. Just as Obama wants to control the executive pay of those firms that accept bailout money, the Chinese will be calling the shots on our foreign policy towards them and elsewhere.

When conservatives criticize his decisions and statements, he hits back hard. When socialists and dictators criticize him, he backs down.

Whose side is he on anyway? He’s making the answer to that question more and more clear with each passing day. And Americans are finally sitting up and taking notice.
