   Is his hand over his heart out of respect for he U.S.?
   Or for China?

   Have his handlers told him that having his hands down and clasped together, while everyone else is saluting, or has his hand on his heart; looks bad, and is not a good idea?

   His string-pullers doubtless see the photos of B. Hussein Obama here at MM, at Atlas Shrugs, and elsewhere.

He has to be the butt of private jokes throughout the world. What’s worse is that he is a serious threat to compromise our trade and security. “Touchy-feely” politics with everyone holding hands, singing “We are the World”, or Kumbaya, won’t work in the real world.

    There’s a huge fortune to be made out of Obama’s rank stupidity, mixed with his arrogant sense of infallibility. He’s like Peter Sellers as Inspector Clouseau in the Pink Panther movies. Clouseau always thought that everyone around him were idiot incompetents, all the while he bumbled his way through those comedies.

    The difference, though, between him and Obama is that Clouseau would inevitably succeed in solving the crime (in an unintended fashion), while Obama simply fails over and over again. So, while Sellers was funny, Obama is simply pathetic.

    After O-Bow-Ma gets back from this whirlwind trip to the Middle-East, I think that his destruction of America’s image will be complete. Now all the world will see us as a broke-butt, diplomatically-dead nation with a kissy-ass clueless president who will do anything to sell America down the river.

    Off topic, but important.

    The U.S. Preventive Services Task Force has this to say to women:

    that most women don’t need mammograms in their 40s and should get one every two years starting at 50 — a stunning reversal and a break with the American Cancer Society’s long-standing position. What’s more, the panel said breast self-exams do no good, and women shouldn’t be taught to do them.

    the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force, a government panel of doctors and scientists, concluded that such early and frequent screenings often lead to false alarms and unneeded biopsies, without substantially improving women’s odds of survival.

    “The benefits are less and the harms are greater when screening starts in the 40s,” said Dr. Diana Petitti, vice chair of the panel.

    It looks like this is how the administration plans to set up rationed care. First by coming out with new guidelines to prep Americans for the rationing to come.

    Agreed.
    I thought exactly the same thing as soon as my wife mentioned this to me yesterday.
    Another example of information, and thus mind, control.
    Outrageous and potentially dangerous.

    Actually, it’s not all that off toipc.

    That would require him to make an actual decision that has consequences tied to it. He cant pass the buck on it so he will try to ignore this elephant in the room. Though I did notice during his latest trip in Asia he did say that Al Qaeda in Pakistan is the greatest threat. This sounds to me like he is thinking of the Biden plan which calls for Predator strikes and limited use of our SF in Pakistan while the bulk of our troops are stationed (or as the left called it redeployed)elsewhere.

    The Jokes on him he is going to throw elections to the Republicans in 2010.

    He is handicapping his own Political Party that he is the leader of…He is the head of the Democrat Party.

    The Governor Of New York Gov David Patterson, isn’t on board with Eric Holder’s decision to hold terror trials in NYC.

    Maybe this is all because a Progressive really isn’t a Democrat at all. They infiltrated both major political parties, and are destroying at least one of them with their careless decision making I am sure the other New Left folks out of the 60s and 70s think it is swell but they are hardly a majority – they are just the voices in the echo chamber that Obama listen’s to.

    A Progressive is much more like a Socialist than a Liberal but the Socialist Party couldn’t get them any where near the White House or leading both houses of the U.S. Congress. So they infiltrated both political parties and now the Democrat Party is in big trouble of fracturing.

    I think Doug Hoffman proves that Conservative Republicans are done with the Progressives gaining seats in their Political Party.

    I am convinced that this has started already.
    A WARNING TO EVERYONE.
    A few days ago I received a letter informing me that THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT HAS DECIDED THAT I CAN NO LONGER RECEIVE THE BLOOD PRESSURE MEDICATION that I have been taking FOR YEARS because the FEDERAL GOVERNMENT HAS DECIDED that another medication (cheaper medication) is just as good.
    I told my wife “Honey, it has started”.
    Now, I hear this morning that the FEDERAL GOVERNMENT has determined, in it’s infinite wisdom, that mammograms are really no big deal, and that women should just stop self-examinations because they are no big deal either.
    WHY??? Well, because all those silly breast examinations cost the government a lot of $$$$$ that could be better used by the government to protect swamp marsh mice or help ACORN.
    Stand by folks, much more to come and it is going to come faster than you can keep up with it.
    Don’t forget the three biggest lies:
    “Your check is IN THE MAIL”!
    “I’ll respect you in the morning”.
    and the most important,
    “Hi, I’m from the government, and I’m here to help”.

    Not sure it has anything to do with ‘liberal’ though we do provide Medicare, Medicaid, farm subsidies, welfare, unemployment insurance, regional airport financial support, etc – many of which are considered manifestations of liberalism.

    But, the reality is that Uncle Sam has had his hand out for some time looking for and recieving loans to maintain his standard of living, while not cutting back and tightening his belt.

    Yep, niether Pres Obama or Uncle Sam has been sufficiently conservative.

    I love the use of “Obowma” or “OBowMao” to characterize THE ONE.

    I’d very much like to read an accurate psychological diagnosis that explains Obama; that makes him feel that he must belittle himself before other world leaders–that makes him always inject himself (Bill Clinton-like) into every occasion he attends–that makes him utterly disconnected with what is going on, on account of his need to constantly campaign and push his stupid mug into as many faces as is humanly possible.

    He obviously has terrible self-esteem problems, which is why he has this incessant need to talk about himself at every opportunity, but there’s certainly a lot more going on in this tortured psyche than just that. I wonder how dangerous the world is now that we have this scramble-brained idiot running the show…

    I actually agree with you on your point here–that Obama is a puppet and dutifully does what Rham Emanuel, David Axelrod, and George Soros tells him to do; but I also believe that Obama believes in his own hype, that he believes he is a man of destiny, and that there’s no telling what sort of decision he might make in a psychotic fit of self-deranged glory-mongering, despite what his handlers desire.
