9,387 Arrogant Americans

| April 6, 2009

The photo above shows President and Mrs. Reagan on the hallowed ground that is the American Cemetery at Normandy. The French people gave us 172 acres and we gave them their freedom.
Now our current President goes to France of all places and trashes his own country? Unbelievable.

Charles Krauthammer is not amused either:

Where does one begin? Obama says in America there is a failure to appreciate Europe’s leading role in the world.

Maybe that’s because when there was a civil war in Europe’s doorstep in the Balkans and genocide it didn’t lift a finger until America led.

Maybe it’s because there was an invasion in Kuwait it didn’t lift a finger until America led.

Maybe it’s because with America spending over half a trillion a year keeping open the sea lanes and defending the world, Europe is spending pennies on defense.

It’s hard to appreciate an entity’s leading role in the world when it’s been sucking on your tit for 60 years as Europe has with regard to the United States, parasitically….

And then he goes on and calls America arrogant, dismissive, and derisive regarding Europe. “The London Telegraph,” a correspondent in Strasbourg, said this was the most critical remarks he had ever seen a president give on foreign soil, and I think he’s right.

When Kennedy arrived in Paris, he did not attack Eisenhower and the United States. When Obama’s elected president, he is president of all of the United States, including Americans who opposed him, and he owns American history, including a past he may not have wanted to engage in.

I think what he did is, in order to gain the adoration of the crowd, he denigrated his country in a way that I think is disgraceful.

Perhaps he hasn’t seen Saving Private Ryan? *cough*!! What were Capt. Miller’s words to the last Ryan standing?

“Earn this”. As in the sacrifice of all of our men…

The Zero hasn’t learned shit, the least of which is to be proud of America. And as long as he continues to be an apologist, he will never learn any fucking thing about Americans and what we are to the rest of the world. He wants us viewed as pansies and we are The Beacon.

This is really a good article; however, it is not surprising. If you look at Obama’s history he always does this. When in front of the Jews he says one thing, the next day he won’t back up his statements regarding a divided Jerusalem.

He speaks of rural white America “clinging to their guns and religion.” Then he turns around and talks of how he supports the 2nd Amendment.

In one of his books he even mentions acting a certain way in certain crowds because he knew it could get him somewhere.

This man is a fraud.

I notice that the Obamunist didn’t manage to take time out of bashing America and his predecessor to make it to Landstuhl to visit the troops. Nor could he find time to visit one single cemetary, but then again, those guys were probably “arrogant, dismissive and derisive” about the Europeans too.
I watched Fox the night that Krauthammer made the statement above, he was just about vibrating in his wheelchair, he was so pissed. And what he said is 100% true.

Dear leader’s problem is he is so caught up in himself that world and national history is meaningless to him unless it somehow serves to reflect his self-importance. World War II? Sorry, dear leader wasn’t even born, so that horror and the horror of the Holocaust and the incredible sacrifices made by this country and the citizens don’t even register. America is hated by many people who are important to this narcissistic barf-bag — but instead of examining the real reasons that they hate us, he’s so desperate for their approval that he’ll swallow their line instead of standing up for the useful tools that elected him.

A third grade student in a hillbilly school knows more history than O’Dumbo. He got by on race and didn’t learn one thing about the world he lives in other than how to rip off the taxpayers. I heard another part of history today, O’Dumbo is not black as in a black American and even if he was he wouldn’t be the first black president. You have to go back to when the country was being formed to find the first (and real) black president. I’ll give him this, in my 68 years he’s running a race for dumbest president in history. Dimmy is still leading but fading fast.
