Buchanan on Obama: The Anti-American President

Sunday Paper - June 14th, 2009

I am glad to see that I am not alone when I speak of America’s Anti-American President.  I have taken some heat for it from the ignorant and naive, but those Americans who know their history, and are not hypocrites (like those in the liberal mainstream media) agree with me.  One such American is Pat Buchanan, who penned a piece the other day he titled ‘The Anti-Reagan.’

Obama is the anti-Reagan. Where Reagan ever spoke of the greatness and glory of America, her history and heroes, her capacity to make the world all over again, Obama is like a dismal parson, forever reminding us—and everyone within earshot—of our own and our fathers’ sins.
 
Obama is not only demoralizing Middle America, he is driving away the God-and-country patriots who are sick of hearing this rot from professors and journalists, and prefer not to hear it from their president. He is ceding moral high ground to regimes and nations that do not deserve it.
 
If Obama believes he can build himself up by tearing America down, he is mistaken. Cynical foreigners will view it with snickering contempt, patriotic Americans with disgust. What kind of leader is it who talks down his own country on foreign soil?

(continues below)


Finally, Buchanan correctly labels Obama a drama queen, playing the victim card to improve personal popularity with the people that matter the least, America’s enemies.

Obama, however—like some Hollywood actress seeking sympathy and public approbation with her tell-all biography detailing how she was abused by her father—trolls for popularity with America’s adversaries by reciting for the benefit of the world all the sins his country has allegedly committed.
 
When did this become the duty of the president of the United States?

Amen Pat.  Hopefully someone rescues you from that dark place called ‘MSNBC.’  You certainly are intellectually superior and much more patriotic than the rest of your colleagues at ‘government funded media.’
