Hide and seek: the “seek” part not working out so well for Obama — 5 Comments

  1. When Bush said “you are either with us or against us” he was communicating the concept of allies and enemies against America.

    When Obama talks about that, he’s talking about using drones and NSA to control Americans and punish Americans. The world need not worry that his actions are directed against them, per say, unless the world happens to be up against Islamic rebels at least.

  2. Indeed Ymarsakar, we have more reasons to fear BHO than the rest of the world including the jihadists. The contrast between Dubya & BHO is dramatic. I found much to disagree with during Dubya’s 2 terms, but I never doubted his sincere love for America and his deep respect for the office he was privileged to hold. BHO…. well you all know what lurks inside that heart of darkness.

  3. parker,

    “The contrast between Dubya & BHO is dramatic . . . .”

    In most ways, I consider Obama the anti-Bush; that’s primarily whay he was elected in the first place in 2008.

    As for Obama’s euphemistic “leading from behind.” Since that stupid phrase was first used I’ve said: “Leading from behind? We used to have a word for that — cowardice!” Think of Moe as he’s pushing Larry and Curly in front of him: “I’ll lead the way—you go ahead!” It’s pathetic that the basis for a president’s foreign policy should be inspired by the Three Stooges.

    So why would any nation in the world fear a coward? Like a bully, Obama is forceful against those who pose no serious threat and those whom he can control (i.e., the American people); in other words, his attempt to exercise power is all domestic — think executive order here. To actual threats, he folds like a cheap suit; his executive orders don’t work so well in Kabul, Moscow or Beijing.

  4. Even an amateur body language reader can pick up on the utter scorn Putin has for Obama. LOL. The other world leaders esp the tyrants are not going to be schooled by a community organizer. Sure they all had some scorn for GW Bush as a *cowboy*. But it was totally different, & thanks to the Western
    a *cowboy* is an intriguing individual to the non USA world & not someone they have contempt for. Didn t Putin go to Bush’s
    ranch? One on One Bush has good people skills, probably because he had a *classier* up bringing & more self esteem that the *bounced around* Obama.
    I think it s great that Putin has Snowden’s back & a spit in the eye for the community organizer, too funny !

  5. ” . . . [G W Bush has] more self esteem that the *bounced around* Obama.”

    [The armchair psychologist] Clear evidence that self-esteem and narcissisim are not only not the same thing, but in many ways, diametric opposites. Like driving a Porsche that one can not afford, narcissim is a shallow attempt to project a self-esteem which does not exist.
