What in heaven's name is going on here?
And who, pray tell, is in charge?
The Muslim world is having a field day storming American Embassies, trying to set them on fire and killing American diplomats.
Scenes on our television screens of out of control mobs burning American flags and shouting "Death to America" have become almost an everyday occurrence.
The US Ambassador in Benghazi, Libya, along with two Navy Seals were murdered in cold blood on Sept. 11th, which was the 11th anniversary of the 9/11 terror attacks. And this is a country we helped liberate!
According to the President of Libya and other credible sources, the US was given three days notice that serious trouble was brewing. That war-ning notice was, by the way, said to have been given before the Youtube movie trailer, about which everyone has been talking but probably never saw, had even become an issue fully three days before 9/11.
What did President Barack Hussein Obama do to protect the US Embassy in Libya and its personnel?
What did he do to bolster security throughout the other hot spots in the Muslim world?
Not a damn thing!
You see, Barack Hussein Obama had it all covered with his speeches and apologies in Muslim countries over the past three years. He was going to treat Muslims with the respect they deserve � as if America had not been doing that already. He must have thought that Muslims "got it" since at every speech he gave they hooped and hollered, yelled and cheered, clapped and smiled, seemed utterly beguiled. President Barack Hussein Obama was their guy. Praise Muhammad! America was now a full-fledged "MF America" � a Muslim Friendly America. Praise Muhammad! America was going to make nice to Islamists everywhere � didn't President Barack Hussein Obama even tell the Muslim world that the USA was a Muslim country too?
There would be no more reason for anger or hatred or riots against the USA because we were not the "Big Satan" anymore � not since George Bush was gone. Praise Muhammad!
There was no distinction between devout Muslims and Muslim extremists. President Obama, by dint of his charisma, his aura, his all knowing, all powerful Oz-like qualities saved America, even the whole world (Israel excluded) from Islamic ingratitude. Praise Muhammad!
So, what happened?
Would any average American citizen/President have let our guard down on 9/11? Or would they have rather been even more vigilant? But President Barack Hussein Obama is no average American citizen.
Would any average American citizen/President have routinely missed his intelligence briefings? But President Barack Hussein Obama obviously only needs a few briefings a week, scheduled for 11AM, which is apparently the start of his work day when he is not out campaigning or playing basketball or golfing.
When Muslim mobs ran amok in Egypt threatening the US Embassy and the personnel staffing it, what did President Barack Hussein Obama do then? He went to Las Vegas to raise campaign funds! This was when the President of Egypt, Mohamed Morsi, head of the Muslim Brotherhood, urged restraint to his people in the English language media while urging Egyptians towards violence in the Arab media. What did President Barack Hussein Obama do? Certainly not what he was hired to do. It took him days before he read Morsi the riot act and then magically the enraged crowds vanished. Praise Muhammad!
So what have we learned?
We learned that President Barack Hussein Obama has absolutely no real influence on the Arab street. We learned that world leaders do not fear him and do not respect him.
And, what has the President learned?
That is hard to say. For the sake of our country and the safety of our diplomats, our citizens abroad and our businesses abroad, one can only hope he finally has acquired the will and the desire to change his course and to act Presidential. By "Presidential" we mean taking charge of situations where Americans and American interests are endangered. It is a matter of acting rather than merely reacting. It is a matter of being the superpower we are rather than the paper tiger perceived by others.
The right way the President should run for reelection as President now while there are extreme crises around the world is to curtail his daily multiple fundraisers across the country and stay in Washington to do the job he was elected to do. Such actions would send a message to Americans and foreigners alike that the President of the US takes matters seriously, is willing to use every resource at hand to achieve a successful resolution to such matters, and will accept nothing less.
If the President continues to do as he has been doing, i.e. too little and too late, the American people do not have to look too far off for someone else who can champion American exceptionalism, patriotism, strength and leadership.
November 6, 2012 is Election Day.
