I nopw hear people calling into talk radio to defend obama by saying America is now respected in the world

oh, really? BY who? The Noble peace “committee” and obsequious “thank you sir may I have another” Gordon Brown are about the only ones who come to mind

Obama and Holder want to close Gitmo to show the world we are better than who? Al Qaeda? Iran? North Korea? Cuba?

As Ann Coulter said, if the world hasn’t already figured that out, screw them.

I nopw hear people calling into talk radio to defend obama by saying
America is now respected in the world

Too bad you didn’t listen to the trucking talk-radio show on
WBAP 820AM out of Dallas-Ft. Worth last night.
The host spent an hour letting three callers (in sequence) call in
to explain how Obama has “made us safer”.

Their comments were all gooey comments about how “he respects the
Constitution”, “the world now respects us”, blah, blah, blah.

The host said not one of them came even close to answering the actual
question “how has Obama made us safer”.
And I agree with the host. It was more like listening to religious
followers with glazed-over eyes explaining their devotion to their
messiah.
(Please note that’s a “small m” messiah!)

Yes, I have heard this too. I equate it to a young male virgin who is finally persuaded by his marginal friends to visit a whore house. When he comes out, his friends slap him on the back and say, “You’re one of us now!”

In such a vision of the blessed, a Platonic guardian class — so much better educated, better intentioned, better motivated than the rest of us — will direct our lives and yet be exempt from the constraints they place on the less capable.

I think the real danger is the unwillingness of the average educated Obama voter to admit they were wrong--the 20-30 somethings I work with have based their intellectual identities on all the liberal hogwash they were fed in college--they are motivated by what they see as social justice with no historical understanding of how fascist dictatorships seize power--they rarely go to church but they believe in the sermons of the Left about a secular Utopia. I wouldn't mind them losing their freedom if they're too stupid to recognize what's going on but I don't want my family to lose theirs so I see their arrogant and willful ignorance as a serious threat. Thank God for VDH and the other voices out there and for Barack Obama's stupidity since he is turning out to look like a dumbass. Mr. Slick is starting to look like a jive turkey for all to see. His snorkeling/ golfing vacation reminds of John Kerry's windsurfing photo.
