Barack Obama blunders
again on the world stage

Telegraph [UK], by Nile Gardiner

Original Article

Posted By:Attercliffe, 11/19/2012 2:00:11 PM

It is only two weeks since his re-election, and his second term remains two months away, but Barack Obama is already blundering again on the world stage, with the kind of gaffes that would have been plastered on the front page of The New York Times if they had been committed by George W. Bush when he was in the White House. Obama´s first term was littered with foreign policy gaffes, and there is every chance the second term will be more of the same. On his trip to Asia this week, President Obama struggled to pronounce the name of

Comments:
So many mistakes in protocol on this visit too. Embarrassing.

You would think that he would have taken a few minutes while on his journey over there to learn how to properly pronounce the names of the people who he would be meeting, and referring to, while in their countries.

But Obama does not care, because he has just been re-elected and most of the people who re-elected him could care less, exclaiming "well, he did the best he could" which is their standard of excellence.

fta:
Barack Obama’s gaffes demonstrate not only a marked lack of attention to detail and a high degree of amateurishness on the part of the White House, but also a disturbing willingness to curry favour with unsavoury regimes.

That about sums up his administration here in America, also -- not just abroad.

Hardly a blunder, anymore than the spin on Benghazi was a blunder. BO and the Democrats are the party of appeasement, and this is just the application of standard appeasement ideas to situations as they arise.

He doesn´t care about the words, much less how they´re pronounced. Words have no inherent meaning to him. They mean what he wants them to mean for the few seconds he speaks them, then they mean what he decides they mean after he said them. This POTUS is all about the photo op: "Just take my picture, press, then shut up and move on."

Obama might well be our last President. Partic if he gets 2 more Justices, which he will on the sup Ct. Then the 22nd Amendment is overturned and he will run in 2016,etc.
I think he does not cae about names, does not try, is onthe phoneto his friends all the time, and might be ´mood-altered´ quite a bit of the time...
Also he did give a goofy gift to the Thai king. He gave a photo album of the Presidents (kinda weird) and also a large photo of himself!!!(very strange). All about him.

We need a strategy - imo, it is laid out in David Kahane´s book Rules for Radical Conservatives:

Neighborhoods south of Oklahoma City have suffered catastrophic damage after a two mile-wide tornado touched down in a highly-populated suburb on Monday afternoon, flattening entire schools and wiping out hundreds of homes in one of the worst storms the area has ever seen. As hail thundered down and heavy winds began whipping the area of Moore, a storm warning went off just before 3pm local time, alerting the 170,000 residents within the area to seek shelter. After about 35 minutes on the ground, the tornado appeared to dissipate. Devastating aerial images taken immediately afterwards show schools completely flattened by the

You´ll remember all that fuss about bees and neonicotinoids last month. It seemed to come out of nowhere--like a flash mob. Suddenly, it was the most urgent cause of the moment for green activists everywhere, with people taking to the streets in bee costumes and celebrities from Vivienne Westwood to Stephen Fry rushing to lend their support.

Local Conservative party campaigners, including the chairman of one constituency association, will this week pledge their support for Nigel Farage after one of David Cameron’s allies described grassroots Tories as “mad, swivel-eyed loons”. Mr Farage uses an advertisement in Monday´s Telegraph to urge Conservative voters to back Ukip. The “loons” description, he says, is “the ultimate insult” from a party leadership that has betrayed the trust of its own supporters. He writes in the advertisement: “Only an administration run by a bunch of college kids, none of whom have ever had a proper job in their lives, could so

Lightning bolts lit up the sky as the storm moved through. A National Weather Service advisory warned: ´You could be killed if not underground or in a tornado shelter.´ ´Complete destruction of neighborhoods, businesses and vehicles will occur.

What did President Obama do on the evening of 9/11/12 when our men were under attack in Benghazi? The invaluable Andrew McCarthy reminds us that Obama and Secretary Clinton had a 10:00 p.m. phone call of which many (including, I think, Chris Wallace) have lost sight. This morning when Wallace asked Obama aide Dan Pfeiffer what Obama was up to that evening, Pfeiffer declared the line of inquiry “offensive.” Translation: Obama and his minions would prefer to “move on” and are warning the likes of FNC off:(Snip for video)The Weekly Standard’s Daniel Halper has posted the rush transcript

White House spokesman Jay Carney today disclosed that Obama’s chief of staff, Dennis McDonough, and other top White House officials had advance warning that the IRS was targeting conservative groups. But he insisted McDonough and the other White House officials purposely kept Obama out of the loop.McDonough “rightly chose not to take action” to inform Obama, Carney told reporters at the daily White House briefing.

The Washington Post on Monday reported that Obama’s Department of Justice was investigating journalists before they started wiretapping the Associated Press – for one, Fox News correspondent James Rosen in 2010. Their headline wasn´t "Obama Team Also Spied on Fox News." Fox wasn´t in the headline, on A-1 or on A-12, where the story continued. Newly obtained court documents “reveal how deeply investigators explored the private communications of a working journalist — and raise the question of how often journalists have been investigated as closely as Rosen was in 2010.” Reporter Ann Marimow began:

A senior adviser to President Obama mounted a combative defense of the administration on Sunday, saying the controversies enveloping the White House were the result of Republican lawmakers’ trying to “drag Washington into a swamp of partisan fishing expeditions, trumped-up hearings and false allegations.”The remarks came from Dan Pfeiffer, a member of the president’s inner circle, as he appeared on all five major Sunday morning talk shows in an effort to move the administration past what commentators have described as a “hell week” of controversy and missteps.

One of the questions was whether he/she was concerned about unsecured weapons in the home. Another asked whether he/she was "in a relationship in which you have been physically hurt or are you afraid of your partner?" Judge Andrew Napolitano explained that the question about guns comes out of a post-Sandy Hook executive order by President Obama, but it will be required under Obamacare. Varney expressed amazement
