Foreign affairs is much more than war, the UN and other typical assertions – it has everything to do with general communication between individuals, and far more than just canned speeches.

This type of foreign experience and knowledge is something Obama lacks, something Biden was supposedly chosen for, and something his advisers should have caught in advance. They did not, have not been and seem to continually allow Obama to make blatant mistakes. Perhaps he simply won’t listen or this is part of some odd strategy he is developing and has not told the rest of us about… I guess we won’t ever really know.

Just a bunch of criminals scratching each other’s backs and massaging each other’s family jewels.

This seems more sloppy and thoughtless than it does a major gaffe or intentional undercut. Chirac wrote, Obama had someone write a nice replay. They didn’t think about how it would be seen.

They’re supposed to think about it. This is a presidential administration whose actions affect an entire people. They are too busy doing all the magical historical stuff to just do their damn jobs.

We all know that Obama is the ultimate politician so let’s consider for a minute that, unlike biden, his slips are not unintentional. Say the remark about people in Pennsylvania “clinging to their guns and religion” was actually intended to cut the feet out from under the “conservative democrats” by making them look like what he said they were when they took umbrage.

So if we can accept that premise then what he said here

that he had been to fifty-seven states and still had one to go (excluding Alaska and Hawaii – he said his staff wouldn’t let him go) that would bring the total states to sixty. Maybe he was actually telegraphing his intentions to get another ten states into the union. Maybe he is looking to bring France and Italy under the umbrella. In order to get France he would probably look to undermine Sarkozy’s shaky support with the voters and Chirac might be a good place to start. Perhaps he has been promised support to be the first governor of France. If he can get France then he might be able to engineer a breakaway by Quebec and bring them in as well.

As to what others he is looking at I guess we will just have to keep a close eye on his correspondence.

And just remember this

Barack Obama’s “climate czar” Carol Browner has been exposed as being a member of Socialist International, a highly influential group headed by a Bilderberg Group luminary that calls for the implementation of global government. The group tried to purge their website of information concerning Browner, but the idiots didn’t realize that you could Google their old web pages.

Here one view on the Bilderberg group

draw your own conclusions.

Do I believe what I just wrote? Not really, but ask me if I think it is beyond the scope of imagination that Obama sees himself as President of the World and I will tell you it is not. The man’s hubris and arrogance know no bounds.

I had pretty much the same thought – The One didn’t know that Chirac was no longer in a position of power!

Of course, if that’s the case, US diplomacy looks like a bumbling idiot….

How long before the incompetency hits critical mass, and will the US be able to undo the damage this novice has generated?
