President Barack Obama Apologizes For America To All Of Europe

At what point in time, is a majority of Americans going to band together, bring one voice up in resounding fervor and tell Barack Hussein Obama that we are SICK AND TIRED of his body slamming the United States of America in front of the rest of the world? Today, in France, President and apologist Obama reassured his European audience that America is indeed the bad guy they have thought we are...all in some little plan of Obama's to help the world like us again - at least that is probably what this guy is attempting. I ask you, am I the only one that is livid over this America-bashing by our very own President? Now, there is some true leftist spin on all of this at this article at the Montreal Gazette but it does lay out exactly what was said today:

Within mere hours of arriving in France on Friday for this weekend's NATO summit, U.S. President Barack Obama had not only expressed regret for past American "arrogance" toward Europe, he had also charmed his hosts by extolling the pleasures of sipping wine and watching the sunset in French cafes.
What's more, there was French President Nicolas Sarkozy, positively gushing with gratitude for a U.S. leader "who understands that the world does not boil down to simply American frontiers and borders."

"In America, there's a failure to appreciate Europe's leading role in the world," Obama said. "Instead of celebrating your dynamic union and seeking to partner with you to meet common challenges, there have been times where America has shown arrogance and been dismissive, even derisive.
"But in Europe, there is an anti-Americanism that is at once casual, but can also be insidious. Instead of recognizing the good that America so often does in the world, there have been times where Europeans choose to blame America for much of what's bad."

So, look at those last two paragraphs and let me ask a question: why does Obama feel he has to set up his argument for anti-Americanism in Europe with this blatant lie that America has been arrogant? It would be like you being questioned by the police about a burglary that you didn't commit but although you have an air tight allibi, you feel the need to admit shoplifting 3 years earlier. It's bloody insane.

President Obama...how many American lives were sacrificed in order to save those French people from the tyranny of Adolf Hitler? Was that arrogance on our part? Why don't you just finally man up and explain in detail just WHAT you see as the SPECIFIC American arrogance you constantly speak about? Further, why don't you go the extra mile and finally explain THE REAL REASON you hate this country of yours? I am a citizen of the greatest country on the face of the Earth - you obviously don't share that opinion and I'd like to know why. If you are going to insist on bashing America for the next 3.75 years, then the least you can do is cite specific examples of why you have taken this stance. And in case you are too dumb, naive or immature to understand it...there is a difference between being responsible to lead the world and arrogance. So the challenge is there....you want to embarrass the American people....then put up or shut up.

Oh, one last thing...if you truly think you can get every citizen of every country in every corner of this world to like America, you will end up getting the citizens of America you pledged to protect, killed.

Obama turns on charm in European offensive

WASHINGTON — Somewhere in America, the guy who invented "freedom fries" as a repudiation of the French must be turning over in his gravy.
Within mere hours of arriving in France on Friday for this weekend's NATO summit, U.S. President Barack Obama had not only expressed regret for past American "arrogance" toward Europe, he had also charmed his hosts by extolling the pleasures of sipping wine and watching the sunset in French cafes.
What's more, there was French President Nicolas Sarkozy, positively gushing with gratitude for a U.S. leader "who understands that the world does not boil down to simply American frontiers and borders."
It was a striking departure from the bad old days of America's recent transatlantic relations — when former U.S. defence secretary Donald Rumsfeld would denounce "old Europe" for opposing the Iraq war and George W. Bush could cause an international incident by giving German chancellor Angela Merkel an unwelcome neck massage.
But even as he expressed his willingness to show a measure of "humility" in America's approach to international relations, Obama is using his ongoing European charm offensive to deliver a tough-love message of his own.
Speaking to 4,000 French and German college students Friday at a town-hall meeting in Strasbourg, France, Obama said Europe had become too prone to casual anti-Americanism and needs to work just as hard to repair strained relations.
"In America, there's a failure to appreciate Europe's leading role in the world," Obama said. "Instead of celebrating your dynamic union and seeking to partner with you to meet common challenges, there have been times where America has shown arrogance and been dismissive, even derisive.
"But in Europe, there is an anti-Americanism that is at once casual, but can also be insidious. Instead of recognizing the good that America so often does in the world, there have been times where Europeans choose to blame America for much of what's bad."
Obama's call for a return to more civil discourse among longtime allies was a prelude to his big request of the NATO summit: for member nations to send more troops and civilians to supplement the additional 22,000 U.S. soldiers being dispatched to the long-neglected war.
"We got sidetracked by Iraq," Obama said. But now that America is redoubling its efforts to fight al-Qaida and the Taliban, Europe "should not simply expect the United States to shoulder that burden alone."
It's a measure of Obama's immense popularity in France and Germany — where opposition to further military commitments in Afghanistan runs high — that the president's appeal was greeted with loud applause, and not boos.
