Mort Zuckerman: World Sees Obama as Incompetent and Amateur
The president is well-intentioned but can’t walk the walk on the world stage

*** begin quote ***
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.

AND I COMMENTED ON FACEBOOK:
Sad to say, but BHO44 IS this generation’s version of Jimmy Carter. But without the redeeming values of honesty and humility. Too bad; the nation invested a lot of hope in his “change”. Unfortunately he’s not up to the challenge. Something we should have anticipated from his lack of accomplishments. Never mind the lack of a birth certificate. What a joke…
WHICH DREW THIS RESPONSE:
wow
everyones got an opinion
how long has the guy even been in office anyway?
isn’t Bush Jr probably gonna remembered as the worst president of all time, what with getting the US involved in a needless war? apologies for him SHOULD BE MADE
AND I REPLIED:
BHO44 has been in long enough to have his lack of any real experience to expose that he’s just not Presidential material. (imho) He’s just a corrupt Chicago politician with a Socialist agenda. Hopefully, we can recover from his deliberate actions and his mistakes.
Well, I think the liberal media has hung the label “needless war” on Shrub. BTW imho, there’s no doubt that the elusive “weapons of mass destruction” went to Syria. They had six months notice to move them adn clean up. All the politicians and bureaucrats, here and around the world, believed Iraq had them and said so. There are some reports that the USA sold Iraq some of the less lethal ones that he used to gas the Kurdish minority. So, imho “needless” is probably not appropriate.
It is FAIR to critique him for: (1) being biased to hit Iraq because of the supposed assassination of Daddy Bush; (2) clearly being unprepared to win (i.e., you break it you own it); (3) falling into IRAN’s trap by taking out their counterweight in the region. So, there’s enough blame to go around, but not for THAT particular reason.
As far as worst, he ain’t even close. Lincoln is far and away worst. And, again imho, Wilson, FDR, and Truman are the next three in line, with little difference between them.
Hope that this comes across in the spirit I intend. I’m just a “blind man” looking for wisdom. :-)
