America Goes Begging

After going to our NATO allies hat in hand, seeking help in Afghanistan and being rebuffed, Obama is now being turned away by the UN as he seeks sanctions against North Korea. To ask a body that cheered End time Islamist messianist Mahmoud Ahmadinejad when he spoke then announced he felt God speaking to him on the stage and loudly applauded Hugo Chavez when he said Bush had left the odor of sulfur behind, is demeaning the nation yet again. For the last superpower to ask for the tender mercies of Sudan and Libya is ridiculous. The UN long since should have been asked to leave New York and be sent packing to Geneva. A confederacy of willing, like minded democracies should have replaced it during the Cold War when it became a debating society and forum to side with the Soviets and have so-called non-aligned nations which were mostly puppets of the Reds act as if they were equals of the US and serve as a constant nuisance and financial burden to America all the while thwarting collective action that would have advanced justice. Asking a body of tyrannies to help on any international concern is fool hearty and counterproductive. A body dominated by the bad will never do good and only a moron or patsy would ask them.

Multilateralism Fails Again

Obama spoke in Prague today, urging the world to stop nuclear proliferation. The leader of the world's last superpower, the bastion of liberty, the storehouse of freedom, once again demeaned the prestige of his own nation, diminished his own office, and went begging to a world that looks for the US to lead. North Korea launched a missile against the admonishments of most of the world (except Iran which is a close confederate of North Korea in efforts to achieve weapons of mass destruction and the capacity to deliver them). Japan's defense needs, South Korea's security requirements, and overwhelming world public opinion are all well and good, but the United States was the one nation that could obliterate North Korea's military capacity in minutes. A strong leader, which Obama is not, would have destroyed the North Korean missile on the launchpad. If an action is in the strategic interests of the United States, America must act decisively and unilaterally if necessary. She can not wait to sway world sentiment or for a few troops as a token of support from other countries; America must act in her own interests to protect herself and allies either to weak or fearful to defend themselves. We now have a leader in Obama who is going to cut the national budget in only one area, he plans massive cuts to defense and even reduction on the route to hoped for elimination of our own nuclear capacity. With two active wars, Afghanistan and Iraq, the nebulous world-wide war on terror to win, and Iran threatening to go nuclear, Obama plans to shrink defense. Obama has what he considers high ideals regarding a world free of nukes. In this world, China would either rapidly conquer us or be able to dictate to us as we could no longer meet our security commitments and needs against the vastly more numerous conventional forces of the Reds who would take Taiwan and dominate the world. Obama does not recognize strategic balance and his naive policies will advance evil and tyranny across the globe.

It's Only Natural

I shop at a grocery in a rather tony enclave called Belle Meade. I happened through the baby food aisle as we feed an elder canine baby beef. There, two well-turned out young mothers were discussing the benefits of the ultra-expensive organic food they were buying their children. They were firmly convicted that only the all-natural would do. I wanted to tell them hemlock is perfectly natural, but you certainly would not want to eat it. I noticed natural Mom number one had a color hair treatment in her cart. Mom number two had Froot Loops in her cart-certainly nothing artificial there. One may conclude that organic is a tremendous marketing technique for the vacuous, just like green marketing to those who believe their little purchase can save the environment. Marketing by the mendacious aimed at the stupid sounds perfect to me.

Calling Kettle Black

Obama called the US arrogant in Europe today. Were we arrogant when we saved free Europe from the Kaiser and the Huns in World War I? Were we arrogant when we turned back the tide of fascism and saved Europe from Hitler's thousand years of darkness-the Reich wasn't a bit arrogant-was it? When an astounding number of my Dad's classmates from small town Virginia left Higgins Boats to face certain death on Omaha Beach-I guess they were just being arrogant-laying down their lives for complete strangers, many of whose grandchildren hate America and Americans today but have a cozy feeling to their former oppressor, Germany. Many of those Virginia boys never enjoyed the chance at fatherhood, so no grandchildren exist from them today. I guess it was just bravado and braggadocio that closed the Fulda Gap and prevented Stalinist domination of all continental Europe. This President is a dandy peacock who never served and probably would have evaded the draft if he had been called to the defense of liberty in his nation's uniform. How embarrassing to have a young empty-headed leader issuing "wea culpa" to some of the most arrogant bastards to walk the earth. Haughty Parisians, domineering Germans, self-superior Europeans of all stripes who are certain they are better than Americans in every way and have just had their faulty preconceptions confirmed by an idiot President. Every aspect of European liberty was paid for in American blood twice and American treasure constantly for a bunch of Europeans who even shirked the burden of their own defense. The world needs a little more American arrogance to turn the tide of appeasement, American boldness to reverse Islamist fanaticism, and enhanced liberty that Obama is so gladly relinquishing to please a world that never had America's best interests at heart.

The Immoral Imperative

The coarsened culture of the USA gave rise to the "Redeemer", the "Great Redistributor"- a man so taken with himself that He is certain He saved the world at the G-20 Summit. Obama is in reality a narcissistic weakling, but he is hell bent on destroying much of what is moral and good about our country. Barack Hussein Obama is the worst infanticide promoter (abortion) ever to sit in the Oval Office. He is a friend of homosexuals serving openly in the military-a great way to destroy good order and discipline. He is the enemy of marriage as we have known it, advocating its perversion by same-sex couples. Obama is determined to supplant Israel in the Holy Land, Biblically-deeded to the Jews, a religion that reveres life (l'chaim-to life-its toast) with the Palestinians who venerate death (becoming a shaheed, martyr their greatest goal). Incidentally, yesterday a Palestinian murdered a thirteen year old Jewish boy in an axe attack and critically injured a seven year old whose father is incarcerated for trying to protect Jews. By way of narrative reflective of our decline, I composed yesterday's column at a public library after a car driven by a drunk, someone under the influence of drugs, or an illegal alien crashed into a power pole in front of my home and the driver fled. We lost electricity for more than twelve(12) hours. At the library, I encountered high school teens in a loud and bawdy discussion of sexual matters that I had not even heard of when I was their age. Bill and Monica, MTV, and the Internet are due much credit for this filthy ignominy that I would not have heard fifteen(15) years ago in a pool parlor. America and the world need a redeemer but Obama, who by his actions, assails Scripture and erodes the Constitution, is not equipped for the job.

London-Clowns Abound

The City of London experienced a ruffian rampage with anarchists, environmental activists, and other assorted yobs who could not find a football match (soccer game) to disrupt engaging in dangerous street theater. Those were the more or less innocuous hooligans. The true threats to liberty, harmony, and security seem to be Obama-the boy Marxist and his companion in crime Gordon Brown. If Tony Blair was Bush's lapdog, Gordon Brown will be the batman or valet to the new authority "BO", happy to exercise suasion over the pliant but terrified of real enemies like Iran and even the malignant dwarf nation of North Korea led by a literal malignant dwarf. These leaders of presumptive democracies have the power to revoke the liberty whose seed was the Magna Carta and whose fruition was the brilliant US Constitution which has served so well for more than two centuries but which Obama is certain he and Eric Holder, his gun-banning henchman, can improve upon by limiting seriatum until every essential right is but a distant memory.

Limbaugh Versus Fox

Diane Sawyer slandered Rush Limbaugh this morning. She contended that Rush had claimed Michael J. Fox had faked his symptoms. What Rush had done was report that Fox had said he either does not take his medicine or sometimes takes a larger than usual dose to exaggerate his symptoms to gain sympathy for the Parkinson's community or when before Congress, to gain additional research funding. Rush never declared Fox was faking, only that he might, as he said in his own book, try to accentuate the affects of the disease when it could benefit the many afflicted and their families, caregivers, and research. The media managed to successfully distort Rush's word and even his webcam to advance the victories of Claire McCaskill in Rush's home state of Missouri and Ben Cardin over now RNC chair Michael Steele in Maryland (especially ironic since Steele is an advocate for the Parkinson's cause since his sister is a sufferer). No decent person would ever suggest that a person of such fame as Fox would feign distress for some malevolent reason, and Rush certainly did not. It is a shame Diane Sawyer showed no such scruples in maligning Rush and his twenty million plus listeners.
