All,
Thank for the comments and the kind words. I had emails today from three senior Reagan/Bush national security officials telling me that they are utterly aghast at the shambles of American policy. You don’t need a conspiracy theory to conclude that Obama hates America (I give no credence to the “Obama is a Muslim,” “Obama isn’t a US citizen,” etc. rumor mill). He identifies with the “victims” of globalization against the supposed Evil Empire, a/k/a USA.
The best thing that can happen is that the Republican-controlled House holds hearings to batter the Obama administration. My friend Lee Smith today rightly characterizes the Wikileaks cables as “the Pentagon Papers of the Right.” See www.tabletmag.com

Don’t forget this all started with the Clinton administration—the insecure state department, but also don’t forget that the Saudi’s most likely had a hand in all the middle east wars we’ve engaged in, including during the Bush administration.

And the saudi’s fund al queda who we’ve been chasing as the perpetrators of 9/11. It is a very short line from terrorist to Saudi government if you are calculating distance.

We are shocked - shocked - to discover that the Arab Gulf states favor an invasion of Iran; that members of the Saudi royal family fund terrorism; ...that the Russian government makes use of the Russian mob; that Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan tilts towards radical Islam; ...Saudi Arabia's envoy to the US Adel al-Jubeir told General David Petraeus that King Abdullah wanted the US "to cut off the head of the [Iranian] snake" and "recalled the king's frequent exhortations to the US to attack Iran and so put an end to its nuclear weapons program". Afghani President Hamid Karzai warned the US that Pakistan was forcing Taliban militants to keep fighting rather than accept his peace offers. Pakistani government officials, other cables warn, might sell nuclear material to terrorists.
Thanks Palter. Zero is looking for someone to take responsibility, and he ain't gonna be that guy.

Well...what you say is partially true...but, I think it’s stupid to follow the plan he is following...so for THAT reason he seems stupid. Stupid people can be “willful, intentional, and working their agenda”.....anyone who doesn’t see free enterprise and America as the RIgHT way...IS stupid in my book...which means about half of America.

The problems have been building from the first Bush administration on.

Obama’s a globalist marxist for sure, but the path has been paved by democrats and republicans alike, who have all been corrupt through influence of foreign nations which became commonplace via the UN, WTO and ‘free trade’.

The saudis would never have the influence they have, owning American media and American politicians if ‘free trade’ had not been fast tracked into the economy of the US. It gave them immediate and profound influence over our government because we Americans, like idiots, allowed our government to grant them the ability to control oil prices hence producing their enormous fortunes which they used to peddle influence and buy politicians.

Think ABSCAM and why no one from our government involved in it went to PRISON! And that was back when we still had a semblance of Constitutional government.

If you’re truly a reporter, you should use your resources to investigate just how corrupt the Bush Clinton Bush Obama globalist express train is! They are all scoundrels and all responsible.

You miss my point - he’s not interested in doing what’s right...or what works.

Not really - it all comes down to impeachment even if he is really insane, as long as he continues to fight

The problem here is that not only is he insane but a fraudulent usurper and impeachment doesn't work with a criminal pResident???

GITMO is the solution and that takes a whole slew of enablers with him from the other two branches as well!!!

In my view, Obama probably isn't a Muslim. More likely, he is an atheist -- like his mom -- but with pronounced Muslim sympathies.

Observe how his tone of voice changes when he is a.) addressing Muslims or b.) speaking of the Muslim world. All of sudden, real passion enters his voice -- a passion that is never expressed for the USA. Observe how rarely Michelle accompanies him on foreign trips -- on the same plane. She seems to accept that it is her role to "walk behind" her husband.

Strongly agree that he primarily identifies with the "victims", not necessarily of "globalization", but of "American imperialism". D'Souza's thesis seems quite sound to me.

Even if he was born in Hawaii, emotionally and spiritually, he's not an American at all.
