You Did It! (No Thanks To Me)
Do try to maintain your composure watching Prez O celebrate Iraqi sovereignty, as America hands over control of Iraqi cities to the democratically elected government there.
It is a great day for both countries. I am confident that, within my lifetime, (most) Middle Eastern countries will be transformed into entities unrecognizable from their current sad state.
And the architect of that singular achievement will have been President George W. Bush.
Because it certainly won’t be Obama, the man who opposed the Iraq war every step of the way, the man who still cannot recognize the success of the military surge and the man who cravenly states that “No system of government can or should be imposed on one nation by another.”
Yes, it can. Everyone wants democracy. We should give it to them.
(Then they, of course, can f**k it all up to hell themselves by voting idiots into power, much as we in the advanced democracies so love to do.)
Obama swallowed his pride here and delivered a barely adequate speech to mark the occasion. As president, there is no way that he could not have done this.
But be still deserves caustic scorn for his Cowardly Lion routine. Judging by his decisions regarding Iran, Honduras, Venezuela and Cuba, Obama values democracy no higher than dictatorship.
So let’s not pretend to be surprised the next time that he refuses to defend freedom, whether it be at home or abroad.

J-,
Forgive me if I go ballistic here, but to listen to 3:17 of this dumb-assed, cretin, criminal, communist, incompetent, sh*t-sucking excuse for a POTUS flapping his lips and NOT ONCE mentioning a word of thanks for to the previous administration who not only sucked it up but also had to fight headwinds of Obama and his cronies’ opposition is too much to bear.
At least he devoted about 45 seconds offering his condescending, mewling blandishments as congratulations to the men and women in the armed services (but not without sternly lecturing the Iraqui people).
What a jerk! He is as much of a fraud as that little twerp, Michael Jackson.
