OBAMA [audio clip]: The United States obviously has a special role to play on the international stage. Regardless of who is president, we are a very large, very wealthy, very powerful country. We have had outsized influence over world affairs...
RUSH: Did you hear that?
OBAMA: ...for a century now.
RUSH: Did you hear that?
OBAMA: And you are now seeing a situation in which a whole host of other countries are doing very well and coming into their own, and naturally they are going to be more assertive in terms of their interests and ideas, and that's a healthy thing.
RUSH: The US "had outsized influence over world affairs for a century now." This is our president at an economic summit of the 20 most powerful economic countries, and he's telling the world that we have had "an outsized influence over world affairs for a century now," and it's been time that stopped! It's good that these other countries are "coming into their own, be more assertive in terms of their interests and ideas. It's a healthy thing" that we are in decline. It's a healthy thing that we are no longer the number one influence. Could he put it any plainer? Who among you can still doubt that Obama is secretly pleased with America's diminished position in the world, that he is happily presiding over the decline? He is thrilled at having our wings clipped! You can't say it any plainer. He can't say it any plainer than emphasized said it in this meeting and in recent meetings.
