National Journal "With vague pledges and backtalk from Merkel and Putin, the president shows how far America's standing with Europe has fallen."
"President Obama's honeymoon with the world is over.
"What was it, exactly, about Obama's controversy-marred trip to Germany and the G8 Summit in Northern Ireland that fell so flat? Ummm, how about … everything?
"There were the snarky words from Vladimir Putin, who expressed an almost Soviet-esque distance from Washington in his views about Syria. "Of course our opinions do not coincide," the Russian leader said bluntly. There was the coded warning from Chancellor Angela Merkel about spying on friends, and her and Obama's continuing frostiness over the issue of economic stimulus versus austerity. Above all, there was Obama's vague attempt at the Brandenburg Gate to capture some wisp of his past glory by pledging vague plans to cut nuclear arms and an even vaguer concept of "peace with justice." "
Obama's Influence, Limitations on Display at G-8 "The president escaped public criticism of the programs during the G-8 summit. Merkel, however, says she plans to raise the issue with Obama in Germany, which like most of Western Europe has stricter privacy laws than the U.S."
US President Barack Obama repeatedly addressed Chancellor George Osborne as Jeffrey during the recent G8 summit.
"According to the Sun and the Financial Times, Mr Obama apologised to the chancellor for calling him Jeffrey three times during the meeting - saying: "I'm sorry, man. I must have confused you with my favourite R&B singer"."
Remember how the left mocked Dan Quayle and President Bush for much less than this?
More here on this: President Obama seems incapable of going abroad without embarrassing himself. "But good grief: the first obligation of a diplomat is to keep track of whom he is speaking to. One can imagine the hilarity if George W. Bush had referred to Gordon Brown, the Chancellor of the Exchequer and Prime Minister during his administration, as “James Brown,” "....
And the people around Mr. Obama are, well, kinda like that too: Obama's Inept Secretary of Defense Asks Indian Audience Member If He's A Member Of Taliban
"Imagine the outrage if Sarah Palin or Mitt Romney had made a racist comment like that... But no, since this RINO Chuck Hagel is a member of the Obama Administration, the left and the media will brush it off as a harmless joke."
