Posted by Jim Hoft on Thursday, November 19, 2009, 5:05 AM
Barack Obama told CNN yesterday, “I’ve restored America’s standing in the world… History will bear me out, or not.”
Here’s the video of the Arrogant One with CNN–
The Swamp posted the transcript from Obama’s CNN interview:
At the close of the president’s current foreign trip, which will take him from China to South Korea, he will have visited 20 nations, CNN’s Henry noted, the most of any president during his first year.
“No. 1, I think that we’ve restored America’s standing in the world,” Obama said, citing polls about public confidence in the United States around the world.
“We’ve seen very specific areas of cooperation around the nuclear issue,” he said. “At the time of my inauguration, the world community was still divided on what Iran’s intentions were… We mobilized the international community… You now have validators like the International Atomic Energy Agency, you’ve got the P-5 plus one, which includes Russia and China, all saying to Iran, you’re on the wrong side of history here.”
“There is no doubt that, in the same way that on domestic policy our first job was to stabilize the situation and prevent disaster, on the international stage our first job was to stabilize the situation to allow us to move forward,. A lot of our initiatives have not borne fruit… The question is, are we moving in the right direction. There is no doubt we are.”

With who exactly….?
Which countries is he referring to and why isn’t anyone asking him that?
Iran?
Venezuela?
China?
Honduras?
Poland?
Czechoslovakia?
Tibet?
North Korea.
I will remember how good our standing in the world is next time Russia invades a little country, Iran detonates their first nuke or North Korea is shooting missiles over the heads of our allies.

Havamal – from the Poetic Edda
Verse 79
In the fool who acquires cattle and lands,
Or wins a woman’s love,
His wisdom wanes with his waxing pride,
He sinks from sense to conceit.

Improvement? Only if you turn our reputation in the world upside down! This fool has done more to undermine what America stands for in the last year than anyone else in the last 230 years! Jerk!

Not.
kerry commented:
” “We, the German Führer and Chancellor, and the British Prime Minister, have had a further meeting today and are agreed in recognizing that the question of Anglo-German relations is of the first importance for our two countries and for Europe.
We regard the agreement signed last night and the Anglo-German Naval Agreement as symbolic of the desire of our two peoples never to go to war with one another again. We are resolved that the method of consultation shall be the method adopted to deal with any other questions that may concern our two countries, and we are determined to continue our efforts to remove possible sources of difference, and thus to contribute to assure the peace of Europe.”

No, Gini, the H in BHO does not stand for Hubris; it stands for Horse’s Ass! And this one proves it every day.

The “world” prefers a weaker USA.
The “world” likes the USA again, because of The One.
The USA must be weaker (no argument there).
All praise to The One.

years ago i sold a car to a co-worker under a
“gentleman’s” agreement that he would pay me weekly/monthly. i think he paid me once – end of story. the amount he owed wasn’t a big deal, but leaps of faith don’t always work out.
obama was elected by the same blind faith.
buying sight unseen – a man with no comparative track record……

Un-f*%#in-believable!

The end is near. Anyone who believes this arrogant statement from him, is a moron.
This articulate Black guy is bent on destroying a once great nation in record time. While pretending to be the Messiah on high, he is actually systematically ripping apart our culture, our economy, our security and any other facet of American life that comes his way.
