Obama speaks in third person of United States as dictator
His first phone call after re-taking the Oath of Office prescribed for the office of President of the United States (this time sans Bible), was to the leader of the Palestinian Authority, whose Fatah Party does not recognize the right of Israel to exist.
Now, in his first television interview (with Al-Arabiya) after re-taking the Oath, President Obama seems to speak as President of some other entity while slandering my country:
“What I told him [Middle East envoy George Mitchell] is start by listening, because all too often the United States starts by dictating,” Obama told the interviewer
His reference to “dictating” is bad enough, but that he didn’t refer to the US as his country is coldly reminiscent of his “Citizen of the World” self-description during his campaign stop in Berlin, Germany (Obama pictured above in Berlin).
Does he see himself more as President of the World whose duty is to chastise a “United States” he feels no strong connection to? He spoke of “the United States” like he might speak of say Kenya.
I have written often in the past that many on the left love America, just not the actual America that has existed since 1776 and has an actual history. No, many on the left love an imaginary America that they think can be fashioned with socialist, appeasement policies and just the right kind of “smart” bureaucrats.
Obama’s disembodiment of himself from his Office to act as an international critic at large against “the United States as dictator” is especially disappointing coming on the heels of some excellent rhetoric in his Inaugural address praising the Founders and our history.
What has the United States “dictated” in the Middle East?
Somehow I don’t think President Obama bemoans the fact that President Bush refused to cooperate with Israel’s plan to bomb Iranian nuclear sites. Does he think President Clinton was the dictator when, with Israel’s agreement, offered Yassir Arafat all but pushing Israel into the Sea in 2000? Clearly Arafat was the dictator then. Are we dictating when we support Israel’s right to defend itself from attacks on their civilians from the Hezbos and Hamas?
Or is Obama referring to dictating to Saddam Hussein that he could not have Kuwait or commit genocide against the Kurds?
Obama made some great choices for his national security team during the transition, but since taking office he has exuded weakness to would be enemies of the United States like most elected Democrats do. Don’t worry Osama, if we catch you, we won’t harm a hair on your head and we’ll give you an OJ trial.
The deterrence of the United States, re-established with such success after 911 by President Bush, is withering away.
Vice President Joe Biden warned of an international test within six months.
President Obama’s aggression inviting weakness may move the exam up before Summer.

Why wouldn't Obama speak of the United States in the third person?
Tbone (Diary) Tuesday, January 27th at 11:35AM EST (link)Only those unwilling to accept the true provenance of Obama would expect otherwise.
What we have elected is a person who was raised with vitually no connections established to the mainstream heritage of this nation. His purported father was a vistor from Kenya, his mother was of little influence in his formative years, his grand parents were disaffected liberals, his step father was foreign, he spent early years in Indonesia, his mentors were communists, he grew up in Hawaii where there is a pervasive sentiment of an anti-mainland/anti-American culture and almost a total ignorance or rejection of the cultural traditions of the our founding principles.
He then gets steeped in the liberal culture of Columbia and is groomed by the like of Ayers and Wright while selling his soul to the corrupt Chicago political machine.
Is it little wonder that he has no respect for OUR flag or OUR country?

mailloux (Diary) Tuesday, January 27th at 11:38AM EST (link)Some reasonable and accurate knowledge of history vs. a barely literate fantasy . . . this distinction, in my experience, is what often separates conservatives from liberals. Especially, this is the case when it comes to our policies in the Middle East and Muslim countries.
Frustratingly, but not surprisingly (I work at a university), right after 911, many colleagues sniveled about why “they” hate us. The “they” were Muslims in general. May colleagues concluded that it was our hegemony (academia loves these kinds of words!) and our ill will and our blah, blah, blah that caused the hate.
When I pointed out some simple history (and I’m no historian or expert, but I can do a little simple research when called to do so), I was greeted with deer-in-the-headlights stares and then a return to their mantra (“US bad, US bad, terrorist good! Oh, we didn’t mean terrorist, we meant freedom fighter against US oppression good, etc., etc., etc.”).
I have concluded, with some just cause, that liberals of the same ilk as Obama live in a fantasy world. Unfortunately for the rest of us, real dangers exist and multiply when fantasy folk like Obama are in charge.
Great post, by the way.

Our misfortune.
CJB68 Tuesday, January 27th at 9:36PM EST (link)Unfortunately, we now have beset upon us this “citizen of the world” at the same time that a Congress dominated by his political party, which has dubious ethical qualities in spite of its claims, is in session. The Republicans, what few of them are of staunchly pro-American conservative leanings are left, are dominated by a so-called “moderate” wing which acts more like dhimmis in medieval Baghdad than an opposition party. There are no obstacles to the Socialist-Democrats’ operations, whatever they may be, save for the passive resistance of those of us who may still be willing to do so.
As for what the rest of the “world” thinks of us now, much remains to be seen in the coming months. I wouldn’t be surprised if it ends up reversing the trends set by GW Bush’s responses to 9/11 and the liberation of Iraq from the dictatorship of Saddam Hussein. As for the nature of that “exam” which Biden so boldly announced would come, may it be of such a shocking nature that the silent majority rises to the occasion to unseat the crowd of arrogant fools which dominates our government and the “housepets” who supported their reign are forever shamed into keeping their peace…

Sometimes it takes something simple to expose the true instinct
civil truth (Diary) Tuesday, January 27th at 11:33PM EST (link)Obama takes tremendous effort to script his communications to mask his true convictions or to leave himself an out (i.e. plausible deniability).
However, this is something that is so basic in his character that he didn’t even think about it, and thus didn’t run it past his parsers.

The greatest evil…is conceived and ordered (moved, seconded, carried, and minuted) in clean, carpeted, warmed, and well-lighted offices, by quiet men with white collars and cut fingernails and smooth-shaven cheeks who do not need to raise their voice.

the first African-American POTUS
pilgrim (Diary) Wednesday, January 28th at 10:08AM EST (link)If we break this down we will realize that the American side of Obama’s blood relatives are all dead before he even became POTUS. This is the first time the US has elected someone President whose living family members outside of marriage are not citizens of the USA. His brothers, sisters, aunts, uncles, cousins, and grandmother are citizens of Kenya.
Knowing this why should it shock anyone that Obama speaks about US policy in a passive third-party voice? Unless law is passed to clarify and define the definition of “natural born citizen” in Article 2 of the US Constitution I worry about future US Presidents. What is to stop a couple from Europe, Asia, Africa, or South America from having a child born in a US hospital from being POTUS one day? They obviously themselves do not have to become US citizens for it to happen.
He is really showing the dangers you first warned us of Pilgrim - nt

arthurcrandall Saturday, January 31st at 4:40AM EST (link)It isn’t about the truth. The network that Obama was on was also a network that Bush did an interview with in 2004. Both of them used this network to express their views to the population of the middle east on touchy subjects. If they wanted to conduct a truthful interview with the middle east, then both of them would have gone to a more balanced networks. Instead, they both went to the network that lobs softball questions.
But for Obama, it wasn’t about the truth but about appearance and political appeasement. In the end it shows that Obama would rather have an arab puff piece then have a spine.

And the Japanese did worse than waterboard. The Camp commandant of Chichi Jima decapitated via swordstrike American Prisoners and then ate their livers. They massacred all the Prisoners taken at Wake Island, even the Civilian contractors, when we retook the Island. Ever heard of the Greatest Raid, Japanese did immolate Prisoners of War…
Japanese soldiers also tucked one live grenade under each armpit and when they ‘surrendered’ by putting their arms up, out fell the grenades. Hence, GIs and Marines stopped attempting to take prisoners. Which is also a perfectly lawful act according to the GCs.
War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things: the decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feeling which thinks that nothing is worth a war, is much worse. A man who has nothing which he is willing to fight for, nothing which he cares more about than he does about his personal safety, is a miserable creature who has no chance of being free, unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself.
