I'm doing my darnedest to reduce the political content on this blog. My desire and motivation to engage anyone on the wisdom of conservatism is as strong as ever, but as more and more of the Obama "fog" clears from the minds of others, I feel less compelled to be constantly writing about the pitfalls of supporting his agenda. I believe the country is slowly learning it's very hard lesson, and it won't be repeated, but....
Yesterday's event, with the president of Mexico in state meeting with Obama, is yet another major farce that I must vent on. I'm sorry.
Did you here any of Claderon's comments and/or any of Obama's pitiful responses to them? Calderon spewed such absurd and hypocritical words that they didn't even deserve a response, and yet Obama tried. I don't know which was worse.
The Mexican prez actually took the opportunity to scold us for Arizona's recent immigration reform attempt. Standing right next to Obama and telling us how awful we are if we simply decide to uphold our laws. All I could think of is that this guy's nerve was being nothing but empowered by a smiling Obama right next to him, and sure enough, when it was his time to speak, our prez went right into his patented "shame on America" mode that he always goes into on any world stage.
Calderon stated that he was deeply concerned about discrimination of his people, but the thrust of it was very accusatory. Obama merely nodded his head. And when it was time for him to speak, our commander agreed with him.
What our president should have done is turn the tables on him and comment about Mexico's own tough illegal alien laws. Ask him about the treatment of Cubans who constantly try to cross into Mexico illegally. What becomes of them? I can tell you this, they are dealt with swiftly. No entitlements to anything except being pointed back to Cuba after a few nights in a Mexican jail. Illegals from Mexico's southern borders with Central American countries find the same fate.
And he should have asked him about why it is that illegals want to leave Mexico so badly and in such large numbers anyway, even risking death in the desert? What is he doing doing to help change that?
The leaders of these various third-world countries are what they are. We can disagree with them and question why they are given a stage if this is what they want to talk about. But the real issue for us is our own president. His constant pandering and apologizing to these total goofs is absolutely sickening. But it's what he truly feels. There is no pride or respect in him for the country he was given to lead (or it's laws), and it becomes more tragic every day.
