We are ready to lead. Are you ready to join us?

We are ready to lead. Are you ready to join us? The G20 need not make a false choice between a chaotic and unforgiving capitalism and an oppressive state-run economy

Barack Obama

We are living through a time of global economic challenges that cannot be met by half measures or the isolated efforts of any nation. Now, the leaders of the G20 have a responsibility to take bold, comprehensive and co-ordinated action that not only jump-starts recovery, but also launches a new era of economic engagement to prevent a crisis like this from ever happening again.

No one can deny the urgency of action. A crisis in credit and confidence has swept across borders, with consequences for every corner of the world. For the first time in a generation, the global economy is contracting and trade is shrinking. Trillions of dollars have been lost, banks have stopped lending and tens of millions will lose their jobs across the globe. The prosperity of every nation has been endangered, along with the stability of governments and the survival of people in the most vulnerable parts of the world.

Europe finally got what it’s always wanted, a U.S. President who will put them first.

“We are ready to lead.” “We”? Bammy got a mouse in his pocket? He and his tax-cheat Treasury Secretary, are they the “we”?

Well, this is stupid. Europe voted "present" decades before President Unicorn even got into politics.

Capitalism and state-run is not a flase choice. All mixed economies are shams. Rule of law, that’s all we need from government. Now, if any country on the face of the earth would ever try it, I could be proved wrong.

Tell your global commie buddies to let loose of our money, our sovenighty, our faith and our freedom and we let your welfare state live. Otherwise...we all look like little house on the prairie and actually work for a living.

Obama has an unprecedented private meeting with the Queen before the G20 meeting in "The City" later next month. Very unusual for a private meeting to occur before a formal public introduction and ceremony.

Her Majesty will present Mr. Obama with his Kenyan birth certificate from Mombassa hospital that shows all the facts of his birth and, most importantly, that Barack Hussein Obama Seotero is not a native born American citizen, but a Subject of the Crown by way of his Kenyan father's British Colonial citizenship. Her Majesty will then give the usurper his orders and he will comply or be exposed as the fraud he certainly is.

Then she will hand him 25 videos and tell him to return them to Blockbuster before he has to pay a fine.
