RSSInternational Rock Star President Barack Obama Now Seen as Incompetent and a Rank Amateur by the World
Hey Europe and the International community, how’s that Barack Obama “Hopey, Changey” stuff working out for you? It appears about the same as it is for Americans. 2012 cannot get here fast enough.
From Mort Zuckerman of US News & World Report comes this revelation regarding the “Chosen One,” Barack Hussein Obama … ‘World Sees Obama as Incompetent and Amateur’. You mean they are finally just noticing now? Let this be a lesson to America and the World, hype does not make experience, a leader or a President. It was not to long ago that Europe was rooting for a Barack Obama victory … my how The One’s image has fallen.
The reviews of Obama’s performance have been disappointing. He has seemed uncomfortable in the role of leading other nations, and often seems to suggest there is nothing special about America’s role in the world. The global community was puzzled over the pictures of Obama bowing to some of the world’s leaders and surprised by his gratuitous criticisms of and apologies for America’s foreign policy under the previous administration of George W. Bush. One Middle East authority, Fouad Ajami, pointed out that Obama seems unaware that it is bad form and even a great moral lapse to speak ill of one’s own tribe while in the lands of others.
Barack Obama’s apology tour is hardly the show of American Presidential strength that Europe and out allies were looking for. So in the end, the World did prefer a “cowboy” after all, eh? As Newsbusters reminds us, from top to bottom, the Obama Administration are legislators, not leaders and they lack the competence for the positions they hold. It is no coincidence that Obama is “Lost in Smallness” and unable to lead … he never has, why would any one have thought he suddenly could on the grandest scale?
The end result is that a critical mass of influential people in world affairs who once held high hopes for the president have begun to wonder whether they misjudged the man. They are no longer dazzled by his rock star personality and there is a sense that there is something amateurish and even incompetent about how Obama is managing U.S. power. For example, Obama has asserted that America is not at war with the Muslim world. The problem is that parts of the Muslim world are at war with America and the West.
Obama feels, fairly enough, that America must be contrite in its dealings with the Muslim world. But he has failed to address the religious intolerance, failing economies, tribalism, and gender apartheid that together contribute to jihadist extremism. This was startling and clear when he chose not to publicly support the Iranians who went to the streets in opposition to their oppressive government, based on a judgment that our support might be counterproductive. Yet, he reaches out instead to the likes of Bashar Assad of Syria, Iran’s agent in the Arab world, sending our ambassador back to Syria even as it continues to rearm Hezbollah in Lebanon and expands its role in the Iran-Hezbollah-Hamas alliance.
The German newspaper Speigel asks, Will Obama Be the ‘Jimmy Carter of the 21st Century’? Will he, it appears he already is. Or as Fauta’s Blog states, Germany was for him, before they were against him. Many in the US have already begun to make the comparison of Obama to Carter’s failed one term presidency. Even those at liberal MSNBC have stated that Obama has made “Carteresque” mistakes.
Thank you Barack Hussein Obama and all those who conned the American public into voting for your fraudulent moderate, reach across the aisle hope & change. This President is an abject failure in the United States and looked upon as a rank amateur by the world. 2012 cannot get here fast enough.
Barack Obama & Venezuelan dictator Chavez
America right now appears to be unreliable to traditional friends, compliant to rivals, and weak to enemies. One renowned Asian leader stated recently at a private dinner in the United States, “We in Asia are convinced that Obama is not strong enough to confront his opponents, but we fear that he is not strong enough to support his friends.”
The United States for 60 years has met its responsibilities as the leader and the defender of the democracies of the free world. We have policed the sea lanes, protected the air and space domains, countered terrorism, responded to genocide, and been the bulwark against rogue states engaging in aggression. The world now senses, in the context of the erosion of America’s economic power and the pressures of our budget deficits, that we will compress our commitments. But the world needs the vision, idealism, and strong leadership that America brings to international affairs. This can be done and must be done. But we are the only ones who can do it.
Welcome to Obamaland and nothing but campaign promises that have fallen on the lies of a socialist and Marxist agenda where Obama has no understanding of the role of the United States in the world or the office of the US Presidency … that is why we we refer to Obama as “Lost in Smallness”.

Yea, this one should be filed under … Really, what was your first clue that Obama was a rank amateur.
The man had never done anything, absolutely nothing. He spent 2 years in the US Senate and was never there as he campaigned. Never managed anything.
What a shocker that he would be an abizmal failure.
Instead the MSM concentrated on Sarah Palin and her inexperience when she was on the ticket as a VP. Yet, even at that point Palin had more experience as a manageer and leader by being Gov of Alaska.
Let this be a lesson America … do not ever put Bob, the first year employee from the mail room in the CEO position. EVER!

For this generation at least, I think we’ve learned our lesson. He’s as left as we could ever get, so the future is bRight.
ll of this was evident long ago. It’s just that now the rubes are starting to awaken to the fact. But the proof was in front of us no later than his failed bid in Copenhagen to get Chicago to host the Olympics. That revealed his is a Mae West Presidency.
But I also have to say that the growing conviction of overseas leaders that Obama is shrinking from the leadership rile, while accurate, misses the point. Obama does not lead because (a) he does not know how but also because (b) even if he knew how he wouldn’t.
Obama has made it plain as day over the last 19 months that he does think America should not play a strong role in the world and that America’s influence in world affairs is for ill, not good.
So I say that Obama would read Zuckerman’s column as an encouraging affirmation rather than a devastating criticism.
Obama does not want to confront any opponents and thinks that the whole idea of America identifying another nation as an opponent is a fundamental flaw in American policy.
As for supporting “his friends,” who would they be? We already know Obama has kicked Britain to the curb and has no affinity for Europe. Who are Obama’s friends? Easy: the ones who used to be called opponents – the oppressors of human freedom in Syria, Egypt, Iran and so forth.
But wait, you say – aren’t those countries anti-American? Well, yes, but so is Obama.
Zuckerman may think he penned a razor-sharp broadside against this president, but all he’s really done is identify how things are going to plan.
Sorry for the typos – I am lousy at spotting my own typos.
Still looking for some ass to lick Barry?
Having been essentially rejected by his parents
and deposited on his grandmother’s doorstep,
Barry is scrambling to prove himself worthy and become
loved and appreciated by the whole world. Unfortunately,
he is a failure at that.
So it’s popular and the “in thing” to pretend you were on to Obama from the start? I guess it’s time for another liberal awakening in this country. Or not.
#8 … The liberal awakening with be at the polls in 2010 and 2012 … The LEFT thought they witnessed history in 2008, watch what happens when America rejects all things Obama and throws out all the Dems and puts an end to the BS Marxist agenda.

took the world a while to catch up to us Scared Monkeys then
#10—You got that right! Maybe not the whole world, but for starters—many of the deaf, dumb and blind who voted for him across America are finally catching on.
Problem is—we are stuck with the King of All Idiots for 2 more years. Ugh.
=(
I can tell you what a 150% clusterf**k it is here on the coast, I live in one of the affected areas although not nearly as bad as LA, Pensacola Beach has been directly in the sights of the trajectories and we had tar balls wash on shore 2 weeks ago, the workers DID NOTHING but sit on their ass the entire day under a tent, then every hour or ho one would pick up a shovel and use it to pick up a tar ball………hell, I cleaned an entire area about 15 x 15 in a bikini with a seashell. The red tape one has to go thru is absurd and it appears the Coast guard bows to BP!!!!!! Since when does a branch of homeland Security take orders from a corporation?? There is far more to the inaction on the part of BP and the FEDS than meets the eye. I am documenting it every day as I walk the beach and look for oil. Thankfully we have had none on the beach lately, but it’s in the Bay and Sound now and that is almost impossible to clean. If anyone cares I have pic’s of workers sitting around BS’ing and take more every day I see a crew out on the beach. O even came to our Island and they shut everything down for 3 hours or more, no business for struggling small business owners etc and he stayed for a 15 minute photo op with Crist, Thad Allen and a few Senators, they did not allow even one local to ask a question and kept the “crowd of 250 LOL” a football field distance away……..guess he has read about the signage on the Island and local sentiment in our hard core conservative area and said “f**k it”……….well sir we are screwed due to your inability to lead and a consistent crisis of confidence and this is just the tip of the iceberg folks.
@Liza
Thank you for reporting what the MSM will not. I have talked to people on the coast of Alabama and things are pretty bad and they are getting no help from BP or anyone else. Why would BP be calling the shots? Simply, they have bought & paid for Obama and he is letting them call the shots. Why else would the CEO of BP be out sailing in the middle of the worst environmental disaster in this Nation’s History? It’s do as I say and not as I do; the same as the CEO of the United States of America. Barack Obama cares nothing about the people on the coastlines he’s only their for photo-op’s to make the kool-aide drinkers believe he is actually doing something. What a bunch of idiots that voted for this loser.
Be careful about taking pictures tho’. It may not be the same in Florida as in Louisiana but I’m hearing people say that they are arresting people in LA with cameras and anyone trying to ask any questions are threatened. The is a media blackout concerning this. An investigative reporter was on the coast and was told he could not be on the beach and was not allowed to talk to any of the “Workers” who were sitting under a tent supposedly on lunch break. Another investigative report says he tried to talk to some locals in LA they were afraid to talk to him but he did manage to get one guy to tell him that the cleanup is a total fiasco. You can ask Bobby Jindal about all the red tape just to get booms and to get tankers to come in to skim the oil from the waters. They want all of us to think everything possible is being done when in fact it is not. Obama will not accept any help from other countries who have offered to help. BP is to be held responsible for the majority of this mess but I also hold the EPA, the MMS & our “President” responsible as well. This is taking forever and nobody seems to have a clue how to plug the hole or clean up the mess without the use of toxic dispersant’s. As you put it, it’s a total clusterf**k.
Although the coastlines are the one’s directly affected by this mess; we will all be affected with the cost of this for many many years.
This is a terrible, terrible situation and this clown known as our President couldn’t care less.
Where is that punk ass bitch Kenye West saying that Obama hates black people? This is worse than Katrina and his response was slower than GW’s but I don’t hear Kenye West talking shit. Where is Sean Penn? How about Matt Damon? C’mon you little bitch’s; don’t you have anything to say about your boy Obama’s response to this disaster? These celebrities make me want to puke. Send them to the Gulf to clean up this mess and spare us from these losers. I’m boycotting Hollywood as well as the rap industry. I no longer support these a**holes.
312- SAYS—”well sir we are screwed due to your inability to lead and a consistent crisis of confidence and this is just the tip of the iceberg folks.”
*8Liza** Not that it’s any consolation, but most members here @ Sm were making the above statement when THE CHOSEN ONE was a Presidential Candidate spewing his false hope & change from his teleprompter. Not many paid attention.
We do care. Perhaps you need to put your concerns in writing to the correct individuals, like your local Congressmen, and send along some of those nice pics you have. In the correct hands, perhaps they could be quite affective. Your concerns are all valid….now America is informed that the President’s Administration now wants to launch a Federal Investigation into the BP Oil Crisis in the Gulf Coast. ARE THEY SERIOUS? Here’s a newsflash for these dimwits—HOW ABOUT WORKING WITH BP TO CORRECT the problem for starters====PRIOR to making the current situation more convoluted than it already is? Oh, yeah- Sure, Mr. Obama—-lets waste MILLIONS, or perhaps BILLIONS more of America’s tax dollars to pay for more of your Socialistic a-holes on the job to sit around and investigate —what? That hundreds of thousands of gallons of oil are STILL leaking into the Ocean everyday? WTF????????????
Don’t even get me going! Most ridiculous thing I have ever heard of and Americans are really tired of the same old same old from this FAILURE of a President. Tax… spend…. tax…spend….point the finger at everyone else when problems/crisis’ arise…because Barack Hussien Obama does not have an EFFIN CLUE what the HELL HE IS DOING IN OFFICE !!!!!!
Complete lunacy. How’s that hopey, changey thing working out for you now, America????????

#14—Michelle—Kanye West? He’s dellusional and in dire need of a good Shrink. That boy is one hot mess! LMAO Your post about the Hollywood Elite (sh*t talking, extreme left liberal Obama Arse Kissers) the whole lot of them….anyway—-your post made my day. Thanks so much for the laughs….. I hear you, Sister.
Hmnnn….perhaps before you boycott Hollywood- may I encourage you to see, EAT PRAY LOVE w/Julia Roberts when it is released later this year? Then again, just read the book—it’s great. You are so right- we don’t need to pay to go see Movies or support half of these pukes. They are all just about as clueless as their Savior, Barack himself. hahah I’m still laughing at your comments…Love it!
kornhole west is nothing but a joke in and out of the music business.has never done anything positive for anybody. always spews racist remarks and always crying like alittle baby.
NewGirl
I can watch Julia Roberts for now as long as she keeps her trap shut about politics.
I like her okay. I’m not boycotting the whole industry yet but the ones that can’t seem to shut the hell up. I’m done with them.
OK…………..thanks neocon. It doesn’t matter, of course, that he stepped into..two ongoing wars, bankrupt coutry, etc……gee, thanks G Dub

SM: Oh what a snappy come back. Neocons, how last presidency. This clown knew exactly what he was getting himself into. The fact is that he is just that, a Marxist clown who is so unprepared for the job, that coupled with the fact he is a Progressive, he is dangerous for America.
Many Presidents have taken over after difficult situation (RONALD REAGAN) and did just fine.
Obama and his Kool-aide drinking minions think that blaming all on the past rather than stepping up and taking reponsibility is the answer.
I guess Obama’s lack of leadership with the BP oil spill is GWB’s fault as well.
You liberals are so lame.
