Barack Obama was elected because Republicans nominated an idiot, because the Press wanted him elected, because he fooled young people that he was something “different”, and because African Americans voted for him because he was half-black. That’s okay isn’t it, voting purely on race? Just wondering. Anyway, back to my original point.
His shtick doesn’t work on older folks, like the head of NATO states. His “fresh” approach was supposed to be able to work new diplomacy tactics that would spring open the fear of commitment NATO and other countries had during the evil Bush years.
But they don’t want to send troops to Afghanistan.
I’m not surprised. They never had any intention of working for the freedom they have. Ever. Even a half-black charlatan capable of fooling vast amounts of America’s youth can’t put one over on them.
As to the Press, they are still un-deniably in love with him:
But though he continued to dazzle Europeans on his debut international tour, the Continent’s leaders turned their backs on the US President.
Dazzle, oh yes. Even in an article about abject failure of one of his primary “benefits” for being elected, he still “dazzles”.
If it were up to me I’d yank our troops from Afghanistan and paper the area with leaflets of maps showing where Europe is and easy ways to get there.

One of his minions was on FOX this morning trying to convicne Chris Wallace that O was promised lots of help from our european “allies” in Afganastan. Wallace wasn’t buying any of it.
4 years of the amatuer hour to look forward to.
I’m not sure who he dazzled. I saw him trying to speak off-the-cuff without the teleprompter and it was awful. Almost as bad as Bush, exept Bush at least had a sense of humor.
