Our "leader" has spoken. His first speech to the U.N. General Assembly convention was today. My observations:

• It was a continuation of his world-wide apology tour which he hasn't been off-script since taking the oath of office.
• He got more applause than any president probably ever has. What does it mean to us when our stated enemies approve of him? Think about it. What does it mean when a radical leader of an avowed terrorist-state refers to him as "one of our son's"?
• He promised an end to any kind of unilateral action or thinking by the U.S., except in the process of disarmament.
• He threw the state of Israel to the dogs.
• He committed our standard of living to a new world economy which will assure that we have a bright future of never having more than an average share.
• He used the words "I" and "my" probably 30 times. You didn't have to be listening for it. It was that obvious.
• He labeled us as a country who tortured.
• There was no mention of U.S. greatness. Nada.

In summary, there was no substance, and no courage, but a whole lot of apology, appeasement and arrogance (the personal kind). So here's an idea: let's pass a copy of his speech out to every grade school student in the country, and ask them to write an answer to "What did the president say today that makes you proud to be an American?".
