ALL ABOUT MEEEEEEEEE!

From Charles Krauthammer:

...when Daniel Ortega, the president of Nicaragua, delivered a 53-minute excoriating attack on the United States.

...Obama's response was

"I'm grateful that President Ortega did not blame me for the things that occurred when I was three months old."

Does the narcissism of this man know no bounds? This is not about him. It is about his country. This is something that occurred under John Kennedy — the Bay of Pigs is what he is referring to. And what he is saying is that it's OK that he attacked John Kennedy, as long as it wasn't me.

Doesn't it occur to him that he ought to defend his country even if stuff happened before him? It doesn't all start with him.

And with all of these attacks on the U.S., he said almost nothing except I don't want to engage in stale arguments. It's not a stale argument to say in one simple sentence that American policy in Cuba since Eisenhower and Kennedy has been to try to rid these people of a communist dictatorship that imposed itself by force 50 years ago.



America is an accessory to The One's fabulously fashionable ego. Contrast that with the un-hip, old-fashioned attitude of your country as something greater than oneself that is a privilege to serve. You know, like them stupid military people an' stuff. Dumb cavemen better get with The Change!
