Obama Runs for PresidenT of the World
Unlike Obama, I would not speak to anyone as “a fellow citizen of the world,” but only as an ordinary American who wishes to do his best for the world, but with a much-appreciated American identity, and rather less with a commonality indistinguishable from those poor souls trapped in the Sudan, North Korea, Cuba, or Iran. Take away all particular national identity and we are empty shells mouthing mere platitudes, who believe in little and commit to even less.
I also don’t believe the world did anything to save Berlin, just as it did nothing to save the Rwandans or the Iraqis under Saddam — or will do anything for those of Darfur; it was only the U.S. Air Force that risked war to feed the helpless of Berlin as it saved the Muslims of the Balkans.
So despite Obama’s soaring moral rhetoric, I am troubled by his historical revisionism that, “The two superpowers that faced each other across the wall of this city came too close too often to destroying all we have built and all that we love.”
I would beg to differ again, and suggest instead that a mass-murdering Soviet tyranny came close to destroying the European continent (as it had, in fact, wiped out millions of its own people) and much beyond as well — and was checked only by an often lone and caricatured US superpower and its nuclear deterrence.
We sleep too lightly tonight not because democratic Israel has obtained nuclear weapons, but because a frightening Iran just might.
Politicians characteristically say to applauding audiences abroad what they wish to hear. True statesmen often do not.
VDH hits it out of the park…again.
Ah yes. He is “a fellow citizen of the world.”
He is going to be President of the World and we: just his lowly, fellow citizens.
The racist, arrogant, condescending junior Senator from Illinois should be running for “Surrender Champion” not President of the greatest Nation on Earth.
Germany. France. the Middle East.
Did he forget the pitstop to pay respects to the dead in Normandy?
This empty suit morally equalizes everything under the Sun, while proclaiming how “embarrassed” he is that Americans aren’t bilingual.
How dare we Americans go to Europe and expect them to speak “our language” to communicate with us?
True. Usually we just go over there and win their wars for them.
In the mean time, the only language that this lighweight speaks is “telepromptereeze”. Ever hear him without one?
Uh..um..errr..Uh..I didn’t think so.
Yes, his glow and aura speak for him.
And what is up with campaigning to Americans through the Europeans. Is he too “embarassed” to campaign in the country he’s so ashamed of : America?
He could have always visited Berlin, New York
or Paris, Texas ya know.
Maybe he’s running for President of the EU and we just didn’t know it?
“I know I don’t look like other Americans who have spoken in this city”.
Hilarious wasn’ t that.
Did he then supply a list of all the black Prime Ministers that Europe elected since the dawn of time?
Race card? What race card?
Indeed, After going to all “57 states”, the rock star Senator has now been to Germany, France, Iraq, and Afghanistan. To finish up his “world tour”, ala Michael Jackson.
“Change”! He will win the ex-hippies’ holier-than-thou, socialist, universalist, humanist, kumbaya “revolution” that miserably failed in the 60s.
Look who he is appealing to. Spoiled, hippy-esque youth of the World.
Even youth in Berlin were enamoured.
What do they have in common with us you ask? That’s simple: Scorn for the “old” truths and realities …like the fact that communism kills a heck of a lot more than it saves.
Just keep runnin up the ladder faster than the rungs are breaking, dude.
Did he forget to mention the starvation deaths of millions under Stalin’s neat lil Five-Year Plan, or Mao’s Cultural Revolution or perhaps Pol Pot’s Great Re-Education, or did that not make the itinerary of moral equivalence?
Collective power and Communism, ala Eau Bama, has never failed to result in misery, poverty, filth, and death.
But fear not. This newbie, upstart, black “President of the World wanna be” takes on Europe and the M.E.
Then again, he is pandering to the branded, small thinking, bumpersticker, MTV generation.
Pass the Pepto-Bismol.
Clue for ya O’ssiah:
Junior, unaccomplished senators who live in glass houses subsidized by real estate frauds, and supported by terrorists, should not be throwin no stones. Aiight?

Hi hun. Thanks for the comments at my posting today. Did you miss the trackback and article I wrote Conservative Liberals vs Conservative? I mentioned you in the posting.
As for Obama yo mama – he is a farse. Marlboro – heh – used to be my brand, and I am glad I quit smoking, but now I am doubly proud! Obama – SPIT!

Hi Angel – looks like you and I were thinking along a similar path in our posts. I’ve linked back to yours from mine. You added some more insight that I had not thought about. Great post.
July 27th, 2008 at 4:30 pm
So…uummm…er…huh…I’m…ah…not sure…what to say.! God one girl!
July 27th, 2008 at 4:54 pm
Down here in Louisiana, the sun is about to set. The colors in the sky are so amazing that you can’t help but wonder, “Did Obama send me this sunset?”
July 27th, 2008 at 7:03 pm
Another excellent rant, Angel. You’ve said it all!
July 27th, 2008 at 7:28 pm
I fear what the US and the world will become under Obama. He is just words, he has never done anything that amounts to change before. His idea of change is the same as Hitler’s. Only Hitler was more open about HIS anti-Semitism.
July 27th, 2008 at 8:17 pm
Here’s what a black Chicago business man really thinks of Obama.

Obama’s tour is personified by the one place he didnt visit…
Landstuhl Regional Medical Center in Germany:
http://afp.google.com/article/ALeqM5isvibn267XWA1SF5OE9kK-nQIKkw
The guy doesnt care about anything except his own ambition.
July 27th, 2008 at 8:45 pm
Why doesn’t he try running for the position of Supreme Leader of the Universe?
July 27th, 2008 at 9:01 pm
What Obama lacks in experience he more than makes up for in self love. Am I, as an American, supposed to be impressed by crowds of European, America bashing Socialists cheering for Obama? Birds of a feather, I guess.
July 27th, 2008 at 9:10 pm
soooo…I ran into a Democrat last night at a wedding….OF COURSE politics came up (ME?!) and she said “You know, I JUST CAN”T VOTE FOR OBAMA…if we don’t fix terrorism, how important is free healthcare in the long run?” YES! And she’d been a …………… LIBERAL!!!!
Great piece, Angel…..
By the way, as you know my husband is from Germany: He says Germans will attend any outdoor happening..(and the bratwurst and beer carts come out, too)…he said this was SMALL compared to most events in Berlin. Plus, the only politician who spoke the truth about the empty suit of Obama is a politican not running again!
Leave us not forget that Merkel and Sarkozy may have to (God FORBID) work with this DOLT in January….they’re going to diss him NOW? I DON’T THINK SO!! (dayum!)

July 27th, 2008 at 9:20 pm
I am so not impressed by his embracing of foreign nations…So not impressed by his choice of friends and advisor’s, so not impressed by the man.
July 27th, 2008 at 9:38 pm
I linked to this post too…How I managed to get from Mama Mia to Obama was just pure magic…but since the man is fallowed by a media circus, it seemed to fit. And no one says the truth better than you…!
July 27th, 2008 at 9:49 pm
It’s funny, republicans (or better the conservative media) always criticize Democrats for pandering…but isn’t that ALL politicians? I think that if you are on the opposite “fence” to what a person is campaining/talking about, you feel like it’s disingenuine. I feel the same way about sena-reverands preaching about babies and families and protecting american traditions. No politician is ever talking about reality, and what is going to have to be done during their presidency, they are selling an IDEA to get elected. Obama is selling that he’s going to be a darling of the UN, someone who other countries will like a listen to. To act like he’s the only one pandering right now is hilarious..did you see McCain on SNL?
July 27th, 2008 at 10:23 pm
Great article and the images make if perfect. On Zogby polls they often ask: Do you consider yourself a citizen of your local community? of America? or of the world?
I always answer I am a citizen of AMERICA.
July 27th, 2008 at 10:45 pm
You know something Angel, every day Obamamamama worries me a little less.. Each time he opens his mouth he sounds a little less Presidential, I do believe we are just a few more appearence speeches away from the whole country going Republican.
This weeks spread in People magazine confirms my idea…The Barackster and his picture perfect family look exactly like Governor material for the Sate of Illinois……
July 27th, 2008 at 11:21 pm
“Maybe he’s running for President of the EU and we just didn’t know it?”
I’m 99% sure that he will once he’s done “caring” for and “helping” America, it’s what Tony Blair was angling for recently. This is the thing with lefties, give em’ one election and they never go away, look at Clinton and Carter. Carter in particular, is there a terrorist, tyrant or dictator he hasn’t broken bread with?
July 28th, 2008 at 12:56 am
awesome post! I love posts where I can leave saying “yeah what she said!” and I definately did that here…I have been nausiated this entire week. Thank freaking goodness its freaking over…I can’t stand seeing his mug on the TV anymore…and of course that is not going to stop anytime soon. I am in hell.

I know I don’t look like other Americans who have come to this city
Translation: I know you all think Americans are crap, but I’m different.
This megalomaniac never ceases to rub me (all of us) raw. His anti-Americanism shows through in just about everything he does. If only the rest of America could see through him.
July 28th, 2008 at 8:25 am
I found you blog last night while looking for a Brigitte Gabriel blog and started reading. Thank God someone out there shares my same views! I swear I cannot stand this man and I cannot believe uor society is so stupid as to follow this man like he is Christ.
July 28th, 2008 at 8:34 am
The vague chatter from ‘rose colored eyewear’ above is hugely comical! As if we would ever give a rat’s posterior about the rectal country’s in Europe “opinion” of us. Like we should govern and lead by other’s connotations! HA! All you imbeciles would be speaking German if not for us. Shame on us for not being bilingual… which second language would you mandate, oh Worldly One… and what do we do when someone gets “offended” because we didn’t mandate their language? Could we send them to you for an explanation? (Afterall, being the only traveled authority, we should seek your divine guidance). And BTW, it’s not that we’re “bigger” or have ocean shores, Moron… it’s because we’re BETTER. But you’d have to be able to explore and draw on history’s numerous freedom rendering examples to make such a discovery. Belgium, a nutless land union of the appeasers… you should fit right in swimmingly with the rest of the amoeba… did you take a friend or two? Y’all come back now… NOT. You’re home now, whacko… stay there and stop referring to yourself as one of “we”… you clearly never were.
Obama is truly pulling every string to exhibit as much bluster and fantasy as he can contrive, Angel. The question becomes one of vision. More and more, the hollow promises of capitulation and surrender resonate with the vacuous (as witnessed so timely above). It is so well illustrated in such foolishness as a President being designed or intended to “make a country happy”… Wow. There’s some insight into the LSD 25 liberal kaleidoscope, and it was offered up as if it would impress. It sure did.
July 28th, 2008 at 9:06 am
Oh how I hate to be a serious conspiracy theorist (it’s not that there isn’t any conspiracies out there -but picking the right one is so difficult) but I can’t help wondering how this far left radical came without much ability (other than the skills of a good “preowned” car salesman) How he got as far as he did without someone else’s help is a mystery. His track record is abyssmal and far leftist. His base from black liberation theology and the Chicago Ghettos as organizer doesn’t explain it. The help from the “out of the closet” liberal press explains only some of it. is it Soros? Kennedy? The party big guys? The UN?
I’m afraid we’ll find out soon enough. In the meantime, he’s a walking poster for brains testing the right to vote.
July 28th, 2008 at 10:09 am
Well written, way to expose the poser!
I love being an American, my wife loves her Méxican heritage (US citizen as well), neither of us have any desire to be a “citizen of the world”.
July 28th, 2008 at 10:13 am
“Citizen of the world” is a euphemism for Marxist. Obama would like nothing better than to transform the world into a single left wing government – one that knows best what is in our interests, one that will dictate to us how we live our lives, raise our families, and how much we contribute of our income to the fulfillment of government’s ideology. One only needs to reflect on Obama’s $845 Billion donation to African countries (costing each of us about $2,500) to realize the true fabric of Barack Obama. Revisionist history is the only way Obama (and those like him) can justify the evil they are doing … and intend to do … once they achieve the ultimate power of the White House. It is important for everyone to understand that Barack Obama is a champion of black theology … and it is a specific, dangerous, and easily proven adherence to Marxism. It is the same ideology practiced by Louis Farrakhan … but the bottom line is that it is up to “we the people” to decide: Is this what we want for our beloved America? I say NO! I wish I had greater confidence in the mental acuity of the average voter, however; I am worried sheepish citizens will be lulled into voting for this fraud known as Barack Obama.
July 28th, 2008 at 10:46 am
Long-time reader, first-time poster.
Just curious as to what odds you’d give on John McCain winning the presidency. Is he a longshot? Is he even-money?
July 28th, 2008 at 12:59 pm
THANKS Y’ALL FOR THE WONDERFUL ADDITIONS AND HEY..
WELCOME Johnycanuck and Becky!..Please don’t be strangers and feel free to comment away…….it’s free! heh*
July 28th, 2008 at 4:09 pm
Angel, you are a master at what used to be called “Zorrowing” which used to mean shooting someone down quickly with a sharp wit and tongue. When I was a kid we would play the game of “Zorro” to see who could get in the last word. This is a masterpiece: “Junior, unaccomplished senators who live in glass houses subsidized by real estate frauds, and supported by terrorists, should not be throwin no stones. Aiight? Bwaahaahaaahaaaahaaa! I would have loved to have you on my Zorro team!
July 28th, 2008 at 4:10 pm
The “w” in “Zorroing” is a typo.
July 28th, 2008 at 6:41 pm
Very truthful and interesting read. I will be sure to visit your blog again.
July 28th, 2008 at 7:36 pm
Thanks for coming by my humble bloggie today girlfriend! Just been nozin round here!
LOL!
July 28th, 2008 at 9:02 pm
Obama is a Marxist. But very few are picking up on that fact. He’s got the buzz words down to a pat.
July 28th, 2008 at 9:21 pm
“Maybe he’s running for President of the EU and we just didn’t know it?”
—
Obama is going have the USA in the EU by years end, all 57 States.
There is one good thing about Obama though, for once the biggest nutzo in politics ain’t a Canuck!

But there are still those who are enamored by his rock star appeal. Someone posted that on facebook.. fellow actors of course….
sadly, there’s no reasoning with fools. But A USA today poll has McCain in the lead. Maybe his trip to Europe stunt has backfired.
July 29th, 2008 at 7:23 am
The biggest concern I have is he portrays himself as a ‘mirror’ or ‘empty pane’. Meaning you see what you want to see, rather than an identity.
You can view this two ways.
1) if you see hatred, then you must be someone that hates. (mirror approach)
2) if you see a beautiful new future of love, then you must be a visionary (empty pane approach)
But what it really means is this guy is nothing. You can’t be a mirror or pane and have substance of any kind.
Yet, people are still flocking to him.
July 29th, 2008 at 9:56 am
Dead on!
I can’t wait to stir things up on my blog by linking to yours!
Loved pokin’ around.
Loved readin’ the unabashed TRUTH.
Love your style.
Will be back daily.
Thank you for your raw, open and honest view.
July 29th, 2008 at 11:41 am
Let Obammy keep showing his true colors. Come November, people may hold their noses, but they will vote for McCain only because the alternative is unthinkable.
July 29th, 2008 at 12:46 pm
I don’t know about you all but I’ve had a number of friends that look like Obama and even darker that spoke in that city. They spoke at Checkpoint Charlie. The spoke to the locals and shopped in the shops. Hell I know one guy married a girl from there and he wasn’t the silent type. I know he didn’t mean it that way but how did he mean it ? “I’m not JFK….” Un-freakin-believable
July 29th, 2008 at 3:52 pm
What a pitch man!!
Selling from black emancipation to peace in our time…….
To paraphrase from the movie Napoleon Dynamite :
“Vote for me and all your wildest dream will come true!”
Barry for Class Pres!! Yeah ….
July 29th, 2008 at 3:53 pm
…Selling EVERYTHING from black emancipation ….. sheesh
July 29th, 2008 at 4:25 pm
Can a citizen of the world be President of all 57 states?
