Obama went to Afghanistan for a few hours this morning.
"Big deal," I thought. Of course the AP still has to start out by saying that Obama "inherited" this war, ignoring the fact that he didn't get the Presidency from a probate hearing--he sought it out and begged for it like Rosie O'Donnell trying to get the last pork chop.
But what really got my goat was the report that Obama actually lectured Afghan President Hamid Karzai and told him to cut down on the corruption in his government.
I'm sorry, but after using our own money to bribe hundreds of congressman and senators in order to get them all to vote for Obamacare over the wants and desires of a majority of American voters, Barack Obama telling someone to cut down on corruption is like the late, unlamented Michael Jackson telling people not molest kids.
Remember the basic translational rule for Bamster-speak. Whatever he says he means and will do the exact opposite. He then takes Karzai into the back room and makes him a deal he can't refuse or he'll wind up in Lake Michigan after trying to steal more anchor chain than he could swim with. Rahm translates.
ReplyDeleteOne must look for the humor each day or sink into total despair for the future of the Republic.
While it was hypocritical, it doesn't mean he was wrong. Karzai has one of the most corrupt governments in the world, if you can even call it a government.
ReplyDeleteI have no doubt that Afghanistan is as corrupt as the Teamsters. However my point is that when it comes to moral high ground on this issue, Obama is shouting from a bottom of a mine shaft in the valley.
ReplyDeleteLike Obama telling another country's leader to do something is gonna mean anything! Pshaw!! If I were Karzai, I would be laughing at Obama and saying, "Who the hell do you think you are to come over here and tell me what to do when you can't even run your country by listening to what your own people want!?!"
