Sovereignty, Pride, and Power?

Boy, oh, boy - I take a couple of days off for Spring Break with the family and Mr. Obama accelerates the degradation of America, expanding his efforts globally.

Sovereignty: 1. Independent state

2. Independence

3. Top Authority

Pride: 1. proper sense of own value

2. satisfaction with self

3. feeling of superiority

Power: 1. political control

2. capacity to do something

3. control and influence

In a few short days, President Obama has eroded each of the above tenets of the United States. How you ask?

Well, The President surrendered our economic sovereignty when he signed on to a One World approach, as defined by the G-20, to solving the global economic crisis. You realize that a global currency and a communal economic ruling council is the goal of the G-20. The council will determine economic policy, accounting regulations, and appropriate executive compensation.

American pride has most surely been advanced by having Mrs. Obama throw her arm around Queen Elizabeth's shoulder, shunning the double-cheeked kiss from Mrs. Sarkotsy (this one is really, really tough to undestand), and BOWING to the King of the Saudis. What's the problem you ask? If nothing else, protocol. How can we become a responsible member of the One World of Humble and Mutually Respectful Nations (he asks sarcastically) if our own President can not observe the time-honored traditions of Europe? Again I overlook the obvious, the new world order will be a homogeneous, communal assemblage without the burden of tradition and cultural. 

Now this approach does present a conflicting issue. How can we properly assist the underprivileged, represent the interests of minorities, control borders, and target those who need to demonstrate patriotism through paying higher taxes without recognizing the heritage of the individual? I guess pride needs to be excluded from One World.

Power. China harasses our ships, North Korea launches a missile, Iran announces continued progress in developing nuclear capability, the Russians and Chinese announce that the U.N. will take no immediate action against any nation that screws with the U.S., and Somali Pirates seize a U.S. flagged ship and hold its captain hostage. I can only hope that President Obama finds a copy of Thomas Jefferson's Day-Timer and reads the entry for The Barbary Pirates (hint - it was in 1804). It is a disgrace that we allow scum like these Pirates to victimize international shipping.

Even in the face of these many challenges and insults, who can fail to be proud of the response lead by our President? Yikes! I am mistaken, I was thinking about how VP Biden told off President Bush in the Oval Office - too bad no one present heard him. 

PRESIDENT OBAMA REMAINS SILENT OR COMPLIANT EXCEPT IN REMINDING THE AMERICAN PEOPLE THAT PRESIDENT BUSH LEFT HIM A HUGE MESS. BUT; MR. OBAMA WILL BE TRIUMPHANT DESPITE MR. BUSH'S SABOTAGE.

As I finish this entry, the pirates have just hijacked an American owned, Italian flagged ship and want $2 million. Is it possbile that a family of Italians living on the Island of Sicily might take appropriate action?

If any of this rant rings true, please post comments and pass the blog along to others. Americans need to stand up for the great individuals who were our Founders and the principles upon which this country was founded.
