In his first appearance before the United Nations General Assembly, President Barack Hussein Obama asserted that the U.S. would reach out in "a new era of engagement based on mutual interest and mutual respect." He then wagged his well-known condescending and rhetorical finger at leaders who spend much of their time condemning the U.S. He said "an almost reflexive anti-Americanism" that swept the globe under the administration of his predecessor, George W. Bush, is not "an excuse for collective inaction."
After thereby blaming Bush for the problems of the world, Obama continued, "Nothing is easier than blaming others for our troubles and absolving ourselves of responsibility for our choices and our actions."
COMMENTS:
This President never ceases to amazes me with his mellowed-down, smooth-talking brainlessness.
