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.

You’re exactly right.
It is the Golden Rule. He who has the gold, rules. China has the gold and we are going hat in hand to get them to buy our T-bills so we can fund our government. Obama is now facing that reality.
“Foreign leaders are smart”
And are not burdened with being PC. Obama seems to idiotically think he’s dealing with someone who respects him (like the press), not ruthless gangsters who secretly laugh their heads off at him behind doors.
