Update: Krauthammer’s Take
Well, [Obama] used a sports analogy. [So] let’s do a tally. He goes abroad, he denigrates America over and over again, he apologizes for everything from Hiroshima to everything that the Bush administration ever did, as a way to rebrand America, ingratiate himself and restore our leadership and what does he get?
Rio.
It was almost unimaginable that a president would actually go abroad if he didn’t have it wired. And look, this was the perfect audience for him, a collection of global Euro-trash who love all this anti-American stuff, and it didn’t even work on them.
I love it – anti-American Euro-trash.
Epic Failure. If only the Obama had the columns with him during his speech to the IOC, if only there was a slight echo to the Obama’s voice that would sing to the ears of the IOC..
I can only imagine the IOC members repeatably looking at their watches wondering when this Bourgeois President going to stop talking about himself.
Damsel was reading me the numbers last night – that is the cost of flying the ego centrist-in-chief and the first-klingon to Denmark IN SEPARATE PLANES. No matter how much they’re rebuffed, they still think this is all about them. Millions of dollars in cost to the taxpayers. Disgusting.
