Obama’s Summitry Buffoonery

If this ain’t a case of a King with no clothes I don’t know what is. After assembling the leaders of 47 nations from around the globe, Barack Obama presided over a cotton candy summit focused primarily on the threat of nuclear terrorism and, as I predicted two days ago, ended up with NOTHING!! BUPKIS!! ZILCH!!

Someone needs to tell this child masquerading in a man’s body that he is not the Andy Hardy President–”Hey kids, let’s put on a show.” What next? A global summit to condemn pedophilia or celebrate motherhood? Can’t wait for the apple pie summit.

Folks, you did not have to be an experienced intelligence analyst to see that this was a turd sliding down the poop chute. Hell no.

Obama is really clueless. He gets the Olympics shoved up his ass in Copenhagen Then he goes back to Copengan to lay an egg at the Global Summit on Climate Warming. Achieving what? Nothing. Nada. Zero. And now this.

Even Dana Milbank, who pops major wood for Barack Obama, noted with dismay:

World leaders arriving in Washington for President Obama’s Nuclear Security Summit must have felt for a moment that they had instead been transported to Soviet-era Moscow.

They entered a capital that had become a military encampment, with camo-wearing military police in Humvees and enough Army vehicles to make it look like a May Day parade on New York Avenue, where a bicyclist was killed Monday by a National Guard truck.

In the middle of it all was Obama — occupant of an office once informally known as “leader of the free world” — putting on a clinic for some of the world’s greatest dictators in how to circumvent a free press.

The only part of the summit, other than a post-meeting news conference, that was visible to the public was Obama’s eight-minute opening statement, which ended with the words: “I’m going to ask that we take a few moments to allow the press to exit before our first session.”

Reporters for foreign outlets, admitted for the first time to the White House press pool, got the impression that the vaunted American freedoms are not all they’re cracked up to be.

Poor Dana. His dream date turned out to be a dud.

Jake Tapper, to his continuing credit, was not afraid to ask some tough questions. And here is little Barack celebrating doing his touchdown dance even though he still has not scored any damn points:

When asked by ABC News just what specific actions Chinese President Hu Jintao had committed to him regarding sanctions – White House officials said Monday that President Hu had agreed in principle to sanctions — President Obama said only: “Here’s what I know. The Chinese have sent official representatives to negotiations in New York, to begin the process of drafting a sanctions resolution. “

The president said he wanted to see the five permanent members of the United Nations Security Council – the US, China, UK, Russia and France – “move forward boldly and quickly, to send the kind of message that will allow Iran to make a different calculation.”

Mr. Obama allowed that China, as a major importer of oil from Iran, is “obviously concerned about what ramifications this might have on the economy generally… But what I said to President Hu and what I’ve said to every world leader that I’ve talked to is that words have to mean something. There have to be some consequences. “

Seeming to applaud his efforts at international diplomacy, the president said “if you consider where we were, say, a year ago, with respect to the prospect of sanctions, the fact that we’ve got Russia and China” along with France, the UK, and Germany – “having a serious discussion around a sanctions regime — following up on a serious sanctions regime that was passed when North Korea flouted its obligations towards the NPT” – the Nuclear Non Proliferation Treaty – “it’s a sign of the degree to which international diplomacy is making it more possible for us to isolate those countries that are breaking their international obligations.”

No wonder this country is in trouble. We are led by a buffoon who has deluded himself in believing that the Chinese and Russians are going to back meaningful sanctions on Iran. This is Barack’s encore to his Global Warming disaster. Let’s be very clear–THE KING IS WEARING NO CLOTHES. HE IS BUTT ASS NAKED.

    Charles K. tonight said that China made an announcement from the mother land nothing’s happening.

    >:o

  • sowsear

    Meaning they aren’t going to agree with nuthin???

  • carol haka

    That would be:  they ain’t agreeing with anything.

    >:o

  • connie

    Why would they escort the press out just before the negotiations took place…the only reason I can think of is that maybe that’s not why they had gathered the 47 countries together or Obama did not want the American people to see what his is giving away for this.

  • WestVirginia304

    If you isolate and succeed in destabilizing a country are you not then responsible for defending it from its neighbors who very well might think the destabilization period would be a nice time to take it’s resources?  I think other world leaders understand this principle and may not jump on the idea of changing their enemies. 

    And this business of telling other countries how to act is questionable.  We told the Palestinians to have democratic elections.  They did and in June of 2007 they voted in Hamas.  The folks in Saudi Arabia sort of like the public services provided by the ruling royal family.  If they held an election would the clerics take over?  Britain started a lot of this mess in the middle east and Africa when it created countries out of subject areas they controlled.  International interference at the nation changing level is always risky.

    Nukes are here to stay.  We could all agree that we will, all over the world, get rid of them.  We would then build a secret facility under the Greenbrier Hotel in WV, Russia would bore a hole under Finland and build theirs there, and so on.  

    I wonder if Obama and Axelrod think they really can change the world like you clean up a city block of garbage or if everything they do is just PR to sustain power and assure wealth and fame when their tenure is up.

    Sorry.  Wrote too much.  Meant to say Great Post, Larry.

  • oowawa

    Obama’s celebration dance consists of bowing respectfully to the opposing team after he runs the wrong way to score them a touchdown.

  • Docelder

    But we missed the point completely… was the 47 nation meeting historic or not? Historic means an event was held was held to this crack crew in charge of our nations administration. Ordinarily as far as world leaders go, historical would mean that something was actually accomplished. But not with our leaders… historic means there was an event held. So already Barack has been to a historic climate change event in Copenhagen… nothing happened but… what the hell it is still historic right? We have historic health care legislation that didn’t involve health care, but instead involved mainly taxes and insurance reform… still historic. Barack got the Nobel Prize nomination after a few days as President… he didn’t do anything yet for it… but it is still historic. Why would this be any different? Nuclear talks where nothing was accomplished… historic. I guess next will be Israel peace talks where again nothing will be resolved except the talks will no doubt be historic. Hell he can have next years Nobel Prize again. That would be historic in itself getting it two years in a row. So, who is the bigger fool here? Barack or the media? I say the media. If Barack can get away with doing squat and being historic while doing it… why blame him? Why should he give us anything more than what is expected of him? Which right now is aparently nothing. Do we even need a President anymore? Is it more a celebrity title now?

  • WestVirginia304

    ooo That hurts.  I don’t like Obama.  But it still hurts to see him run the wrong way around the world.  Do you want him holding the red key?  Oh, wait.  He does have the right to turn the key and launch nukes.  Sombody please turn him around.

    I heard that BO and Russian president Dmitry Medvedev had “agreed” to divert weapons grade plutonium to use as fuel for power generation.

    Is this not whatthe  Iranium President wil argue he wants to do with his stock pile?

    LJ, out of all all the raw yellow cake deposits in the world how many beside Iran’s are “controlled”?
    Am I correct in the fact that international oversight of what occurs in Iranium is not “inspected”?
    So it is quite possible for “terrorist” to get this material fromthe nation of Iranium?
    (Iran does have a booming “mother ship” trawler trading company….

     I also hear BO proclaim that “the country was safer and world more secure”.
    Just can wait to catch up on the BUPKIS news…. oh the espionage!!!!

  • ~~JustMe~~

    Too long!

  • WestVirginia304

    The O team seems to use the “historic” label for everything.  Historic shit taken by the first half-black president in the US.  Historic dunk, sneeze, hangover.

    The O supporters will make enough money under this period to buy all the history text book publishers and O will be listed as the greatest president ever.

    Or.. a GOP led congress in 2011 will investigate him and his lot.

    It’s up to the voters how history will be written.

    Guess that little bow to the Chinese President didn’t help the cause. 

    I heard someone say last night that President Obama appears to confuse “activity” for “action.”  It’s as if we’re watching a continuous theater production.  And Barack Obama is playing the President of the United States, badly.  So, now we have another summit [so like the healthcare summit] that ends up being a puppet show for the masses.

    It’s a going through the motions exercise and calling it good.  What a monumental waste of time.  And wouldn’t you love to be in one of those limosines as the Heads of States leave and ask their aides: What the hell was that all about????

    I feel a whole lot safer.   8-)

    Considering that the US does not have a policy and procedure to inspect ports of entry for radioactive cargo, I am not sure inviting the world’s fissle material is a good idea.

    Give me your tired, your poor, your fissile material yearning to be downgraded.
    The United States rapidly is becoming the hottest destination for unwanted nuclear fuel, as the Obama administration steps up efforts to relieve other countries of their weapons-grade nuclear supplies. http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2010/04/13/popular-destination-worlds-unwanted-nuclear-supply/

    So how is this supposed to work? “The warhead in that shipping container has been decommissioned. Honest.”

    How is the chain of custody supposed to work?

    No need for Iran to build ICBM’s. The US will accept their warheads at any port of entry.

  • oowawa

    Nothing like a “summit” to make everyone see that you really are at the top and everybody else is beneath you.  It’s kind of like that game, King of the Hill.  And when you’re on top of the summit, be casual, be cool, be gracious, be dignified, command admiration.  It helps to elevate your chin slightly, especially after you have uttered a striking phrase and are waiting for applause.

    I just tapped this beaut over at The Confluence.  A poster had offered the link here:

    http://www.usatoday.com/news/washington/2010-04-13-nuke-plans_N.htm

    I feel a case of deja vu coming on with words like these [in the event of a nuclear strike]:

    “The message for families is simple, he says: Stay put. Wait for instructions. If you’ve been outside, dust off, change, shower. “What citizens need to know fits on a wallet-sized card,” Redlener says.”

    Our ashes could fit on a wallet-sized card.  Are they kidding? This from Columbia University’s School of Public Health.

    Duck and Tuck anyone?  This is the same damn nonsense I heard as a kid during the Cold War.  And take a shower if you get powdered by radioactive dust???

    Pul-e-e-se!  We’re being lead by clowns [who will no doubt be in bunkers two miles underground.  So, maybe they're not truly dumb clowns.]

    There is an article by Jackson Diehl in the Washington Post about the allies that backtrack snubbed at the meeting. The  President of Georgia, the leader of Azerbaijan which is located between Iran and Russia.
    This fool is determined to isolate America from all her allies which is a very dangerous move.

    When I heard about the soccer game lie, I thought of the time when my husband was bartending and I called him. The usual thing when a wife called  for a patron and a another patron answered the phone was to say “He’s not here.” When the patron who answered the phone told me ” He’s not  here.” I explained that they all  must be pretty dry by now as he was the bartender. He was given the phone right away.

    Obama is having his little “Stuart” moments: he reminds me of Stewart, as a petchulant child, and this is what we are suppose to understand and put up with.

    The historic obsession of this administration is exhausting. I imagine the checklist “Things To do to Make History”, looks something like this.

    1. Make self appear more of a leader than MLK

    2. Always point out Kennedyisms, and associate self as producing same ethic.

    3. Be Reaganesque, tear down a wall somewhere, and get rid of nukes, or make it appear so.

    4. Proceed as having all answers to all things, refute any disagreements with dividing by classification…

    and so it goes.

    “People”, There is that dreaded word, but it got your attention didn’t it? Obama has never had an original thought. He is patterning himself after Roosevelt. He almost told us he was doing this when he talked about reading up on that former president.  Roosevelt had a summit, or whatever it was called back then. Obama has never had a speech he didn’t lift from someone else, change the wording to intice the stupid, and pass it off as his own.  Read up on this former president to see what is next on the O agenda.

    Russia definately and China possibly have good intel on the what where and when of Irans enrichment program. And, they are likely sharing that info with the Israelis.

    They rightly do not trust Obama with that info. He’d blab it to Ahmadinejad faster than light speed, not out of duplicity, but just to show how important he thinks he is.

    Nuclear Iran is a threat to Russia, China and the World. If they build a nuke, they will use it.

    The Isrealis have the Bunker Busters. They would like to have the US, but can and will protect their interests without the US.

    At some point, terrorists will get a nuclear device. Likely a Uranium fission bomb, and they will use it. They won’t be able to detonate it from the sky where it would be most effective. But it will cause engh damage detonated from inside a container to cause panic greater than 9/11.

    oowawa and, in his continuous form, the only thing he doesn’t flip on,you know, all those campaign promises, is his beliefs.  Like when he addressed that big bucks LA Fundraiser and he let everyone know then (which should have sent warning bells to his-used to be considered intelliget, supporters), like later, his “spreading the wealth”, that most of the people there would never be able to afford a place like that.

    As we see now, with their always talking down America and her ideals, and trying to CHANGE them for worse.  Their latest, America will no longer be the leading country on so many fronts.  That has been their goal.

    Our personal income has dropped 3.2 percent and our expenses have gone up.

    On that issue, Harry Reid announced yesterday he has 56 votes in the Senate in favor of amnesty with a path to citizenship.  He promised a bunch of illegals in Las Vegas on Saturday that he would get an amnesty through.  So this show it is a political, social engineering policy.  The Democrats know they can’t get returned to office if they don’t give illegal Mexicans the vote.  I say it’s treason, handing the country over to foreign nationals.

    Obama doesn’t know squat about FDR.  He likes to throw the name around, but he is the farthest thing from Roosevelt since Hoover.  FDR came to office in bad economic climate and did lots of things to turn it around for average people. He actually ended the Depression for quite awhile.  When people went on the government dole, they also went to work for WPA or CCC.  They didn’t get money for lazing around, raping 7 year olds at some public housing.

    The need of these creeps in Washington to keep us in danger and in fiscal jeopardy is disgusting.

    An excellent article Larry, except for this:

    Jake Tapper, to his continuing credit, was not afraid to ask some tough questions. il.e. what specific actions the Chinese committed to.

    Q-1: is that really a tough question? Or is it merely an obvious one?

    Q-2: did he challenge the inadequate evasive answer?

    Q-3: did he make any attempt to connect the dots.

    In my opinion, Tapper is what he has always been: a shill for Obama.

    Nope–I’m not doomed Peggy Sue.  I bought some great protection at a surplus sale–old 2nd grade desks from the 50′s–and I still remember how to hide under there like my teacher taught me, when the bright flash comes.  Of course, I don’t fit under there all huddled up quite as well as I did when I was 8 years old, but I’ll manage.  Also, I’m not quite strong enough to dig that bomb shelter in the backyard anymore, but there are always some illegals standing around down at the fruit stand that will give me a hand for a few bucks.  I bought a couple of rolls of duct tape to seal everything up–didn’t even have that great modern invention back in 1954–so I’m feeling pretty safe.

    carol—-isn’t this the biggest disaster you’ve ever seen?
    What’s going on now is not fair to immigrants who have respected the rules and have worked hard.
    If Rick Perry deals with this the way he should, he’s getting my vote. This mess is insane. And shame on the people who have hired illegals!! They are enablers of the worst kind and should be prosecuted!

    What he’s really saying is “this is un-Presidented”, meaning there is no REAL President right now, just a big stupid 5 year old man who got the position with bullshit and skin color.

    “No need for Iran to build ICBM’s. The US will accept their warheads at any port of entry.”

    Exactly, NLBIB.  Let’s see–how many WMD’s can you fit into a shipping container that is 40 feet long, 8 feet wide, and 8 feet high?  How many of these containers pass through our ports every day without being inspected?  The ICBM is so yesterday. . . .

    My first thought when he said he was at his daughter’s soccer game was,”Only the lowest gutter scum would drag his own daughter into his panoply of lies.”

  • carol haka

    I would expect Perry to start on this immediately.

    I wonder what Meg’s position is in California.  I know they have tight border control there but it doesn’t matter when they leak over from the other states.

    I’m happy you have to have a passport to enter Mexico now.  It helps parents control what their stupid kids are up to.  My son went over to Mexico several times while he was at USC – including the weekend he graduated.  I was terrified each time they wouldn’t come back.

    Also, was it White that said he wouldn’t allow voters to be questioned about their citizenship and residence.  Too hell with these morons.

    >:o

    carol—i don’t know Bill White’s position on anything. Although I like him personally, I knew I would not be voting for any Democrats, so haven’t read his position papers.
    He is a weak candidate, in my opinion. Too nice of a guy. Democrats always run the weakest candidate they can find, someone with no statewide recognition ( like Bell) . Ann was an exception.
    But, that’s fine with me now, since I don’t vote for Dems.

    I actually have an old antique grade school desk, with scrolled ironwork, inkwell, etc  on it.  My sister and I each had one in our bedroom when we were little. We did our homework every day sitting at those desks….It’s in my living room now. Think I’ll go see if I can crouch under it. Thanks for the reminder! I have nuke protection and didn’t even realize it! lol!!!

    Lol, Ono!!

    Right oowawa, but you know what some are like when the word money is mentioned. You must of seen how people react if you say something is FREE they go wild. Money will make some react to get a share. It’s crazy out there! To hell with the consequences…

    When all hell was breaking loose during the primaries and it seemed the only station that came close to giving Hillary a fair shake was FOX (much to ex-democrats who had never watched that channel’s surprise!)  Tapper sometimes came through on his page with the stories everybody needed to hear.

    I gave him credit back then for actually daring to speak against The One.  He covered Rezko and Wright and didn’t sweep the dirt under the rug and more importantly didn’t drink the kook-aid of worship.  I have long thought of him as a republican, maybe not, but that is my impression.  Sort of a Morning Joe kind of guy in a way, minus the annoying Mika.  :-D

    JustMe—thank you for the article—i agree with almost everything she said.

    What’s on your mind…

  • Cindy

    Ani—can’t wait to read your post.

  • bamaLV

    that dog and pony show of a summit was was just for the benefit of obamas ego. it was to show he can summon most of the worlds leaders at a moments notice to make himself look important. too bad most of them were probably laughing at the community organizer who thinks he’s king.

  • bamaLV

    look for andy stern to be given some czar position in the WH in the near future.  also look for stupak to be  getting some job in the administration as payback for selling his soul. he could have gone out a hero but chose instead to be a traitor.

  • leslie

    thank the gods it was only a 2-day summit. I can only wonder what we could have been threatened with if the summit had extended longer.
    jeebus !
    It truly is/was historic. 2 whole days!

  • No Longer Banned in Beantown

    I take that back. In the not so distant future, terrorists will have an enriched uranium nuclear bomb. And if they are able to make it small enough, they will detonate it in the cargo hold of a jet.

    La Guardia, Washington National, LAX, but definately not SFO. There are too many Muslim loving obots there.

    3 years ago Iran was 4 years away from having enough enriched uranium for a bomb. They have not slowed their quest.

    And Obama is greasing the wheels paving the road to a nuclear disaster.  

  • No Longer Banned in Beantown

    I figured it out. The Music is Spectres in the Fog by Hans Zimmer and is from the Last Samurai sound track.

    I was not aware that Hans is a prolific composer for movie soundtracks. Gladiator, Da Vinci Code, Pirates of the Caribbean, The Dark Knight, The Last Samurai and many others.

  • sowsear

    Bo will go to Poland next week…always on a jaunt somewhere.

  • sowsear

    Last time he said that he went for his physical. He’s an equal opportunity user…anyone can be used…there’s nothing/no one sacred, except himself.

  • Required Reading

    And, God forbid, if we do have to fight a major war, it looks as if we’ll have to take up a collection in the church of Obama to fund it (maybe all of his bow-ees will throw a nickel in), ’cause there sure as hell won’t be enough money or weaponry in the bank:

    Two achievements from the nuclear summit. After more than 10 years of trying the U.S. has finally convinced the Ukrainians to get rid or enriched Uranium.

    47 nations signed a pack to within 4 years to better safeguard nuclear material. A good start for a very important issue.

    I guess Larry Johnson would rather see nothing done. Always a bitching and complaining.

    David Miliband, the British foreign secretary, said Obama’s summit should be seen in a broader context that includes the recent signing of a U.S.-Russia arms-reduction treaty. “What they’ve done is break a culture of cynicism” about nuclear issues, Miliband said.

    Kenneth Luongo, an expert on nuclear security at the Partnership for Global Security, said Obama “has put his personal prestige on the line like no other world leader has before” on the issue. The commitments were positive, he said. “But, when the lights go down tonight, leaders need to hit the ground running on implementation.”

    In other words say what we used to say: Bend over and kiss your as$ goodbye.

  • tango

    This is OT but I’m curious what Larry (or any of your other really smart people) think about the NY Times possibly going public with a list of names of Americans covertly working in Afghanistan protecting US and allied troops:

    http://bigjournalism.com/bthor/2010/04/14/sos-red-alert-new-york-times-about-to-put-american-troops-in-deadly-peril/

    Even if you don’t agree with the Defense Department doing intelligence gathering, etc, that should be no reason to name names and put the lives of operatives, their families and others in danger.

    We are the buffoons having elected a lying toady for the Soviets.  Culturally Muslim and Marxist, the guy lies and the press or social media just pass it on.  Huffington, w/ young Axelrod, is just another extension of the Obama machine.  I do have to give him credit for his organization and control.  It will be illuminating to see what happens when the out of state voters show up at precincts next time.
