Obama: ‘We’ve restored America’s standing’
***Scroll down for updates***
Amazing hubris from our Apologizer-In-Chief.
Beijing, China (CNN) — A little more than a year after his election, President Obama said his administration has laid the groundwork for success on global and domestic matters.“I think that we’ve restored America’s standing in the world, and that’s confirmed by polls,” he told CNN’s Ed Henry in a wide-ranging interview this week during his trip to China.
“I think a recent one indicated that around the world, before my election, less than half the people — maybe less than 40 percent of the people — thought that you could count on America to do to the right thing. Now it’s up to 75 percent.”
According to the people around the world he’s referring to, “do the right thing” translates as “be a weak-kneed amateur full of apologies and indecision.”

UPDATE: Ace offers an excellent opinion on President Obama’s “diplomacy of deference”:
My actual beef is that the crap Obama is doing is irrelevant. No one gives a flying fuck if you bow to them, or you say nice things about “working together to reach our collective goals,” or this ridiculous conceit that just because of Obama’s “personal presence” — a historic presidency, drenched in drama, topped with butter-baked crumbs of hope — is going to make a lick of difference. Nations pursue their own policy goals — period. You change the goals a nation might pursue by offering carrots and sticks, by buying them off or making it so costly to pursue a particular goal they refrain from doing so. [emphasis added —FMP]“Diplomacy” is merely a polite manner of announcing these carrots and sticks.

This malignant narcissist thinks that nations will change their fundamental national goals based simply on the (purported) fact that Obama is charming, nice, and awesome.…Obama isn’t just showing the symbolism of deference, weakness, and appeasement; he’s actually practicing deference, weakness, and appeasement. His symbolic gesture then is simply confirmation of objective reality.
