How Did Obama's U.N. Speech Help America?
Obama Speaking Before the U.N. General Assembly: 'Act Boldly and Collectively,' Part 2
It’s always a bad sign when a US president gets several rounds of heavy applause at the UN General Assembly, as Barack Obama did this morning in New York. Needless to say, the loudest cheers from the gathering of world leaders came when he condemned the actions of a close US ally, Israel, in continuing to build settlements in the West Bank. You can always rely on attacks on the Israelis to generate the biggest roars of approval at any meeting of the United Nations, and Obama dutifully obliged.
The Assembly also mightily cheered Obama’s boast that the United States no longer condones “torture” (as if it ever did), a blatantly political swipe at the interrogation techniques of the previous government, which most Americans happen to back. The president’s decision to rejoin the UN Human Rights Council, a basket case of an organization that includes some of the world’s worst tyrannies, was also greeted warmly.
Needless to say, when the president briefly brought up the need for greater international cooperation over Afghanistan, or spoke about the threat posed by al-Qaeda – or “violent extremists” as he calls them – there was stony silence. Read more ...

Sadly, you are misinformed.
Your sphere of informaiton is so small you believe things that are not true.

Ever hear of that saying......the p o t calling the kettle b l a c k?....it fits your attempts to debate/spin to a tee..; ) You aren't worth my time...good day to you Ash, God Bless I hope someday you'll see the truth.
Debra
Excellent, excellent point/counterpoint Garry, this prez h a t e s the US, just like his wife and all his czars and administration...apparently this country was a pretty pitiful nation until Jan, 2009!!!
Doc H
He hates what we are right now! That is why he said we are five days away from fundamentally transforming America,
That would be to a vision of his not ours or the founding fathers.

How can that be misinformed? Why is it whenever someone cites what this man has actually said or written, you Libs claim we are misinformed? Are you really this ignorant or do you have to work at it?

Comparison: US PRESIDENT--ISRAEL PRIME MINISTER
1. Who spoke with pride in his country?
2. Who apologized for his country?
3. Who spoke words from his heart?
4. Who spoke words from his mirror?
5. Who believed in what he said?
6. Who believed in what he read?
7. Who spoke to the people listening?
8. Who spoke to the Telepromter?
9. Who spoke from strength and power and said what had to be said?
10.Who spoke from weakness and pandered to others so as not to offend?

Excellent!!!!! Obummer is weak and inept, I'm with the ISRAEL PRIME MINISTER

Ash, I believe America is and has become the greatest nation in the world due to our forefathers that created America due to Judea Christian values. I bet you don't believe that either. That is why people like you and Obama are destroying this countries values everyday.

to PK, he stated as much in his book, that he would stand with the m u s l i m s if the political winds should shift.
to traditional values, not only that but anti missile defense apparatus as well from Russia and you're exactly right, they will have to attack very, very soon, Obama stalled this for months as it was. They won't wait much longer and frankly why should they? Iran has said REPEATEDLY they will wipe Israel off the face of the earth.
Traditional Values
To Debra, You are so right , Israel is waiting for this sanctions deal towards Iran that is going soar as we speak. When sanctions don't work out and the plan gets pushed aside, Israel than will attack Iran.We are running out of time and this attack that I feel is inevitable will happen in the top of October. Iran has already bought and paid for a slew of military jets that they had purchased from Russia and not yet received . Israel wants to attack before that shipment of jets gets delivered.

What BO didn't mention in his speech was that on January 27th, he signed a proclamation authorizing 3.2 million to relocate Hamas members to the U.S. Congress signed off on it last month. I think it was HR 1387. Tell me BO isn't trying to destroy this country and remake it in a muslim image. As Rush said yesterday, he doesn't consider himself the leader of the U.S., he considers himself the leader of the entire world. I am so afraid for our country and get more afraid with everything new that I hear.

HR 1387? The Electronic Message Preservation Act?

oh please ash, 90 percent of my posts don't even show, but how about the fact that Israel is our #1 ally, we (UN) gave them back their homeland. My personal, religious beliefs notwithstanding, Obama is going to cause ww3 and then who will give a rats b u t t what you spammed repeatedly here? rolling my eyes*
KY CONSERVATIVE
Obama is best described by a 19TH CENTURY BRITISH POLITICIAN !
"" A sophistical rhetorician, inebriated with the exuberance of his own verbosity, and gifted with an egotistical imagination that can at all times command an interminable and inconsistent series of arguments to malign an opponent and to glorify himself. ""
Benjamin Disraeli (1804-1881) British politician and author

More of the same. We are sorry. I think he really does hate the USA.
Debra
Mark, Israel will NEVER fall, God has promised that and Jesus will return to glory in Jerusalem. You can take THAT to the bank. But before He returns, there will be Hell on earth, as if that hasn't been the case all along, but terrible, terrible times are ahead.
ash
That is you basis for setting foreign policy? The naïveté expressed on this site is beyond belief.

Hey Ash hole, nice to hear from you.

This is exactly what these quacks think. That our Community Organizer in Chief is the ruler of the World and want him to be dictator. This is really scary folks!!! I'm sick of his Apology Tour. The Obama's have nothing to be thankful for living in this great country that we call the United States. They hate America and it shows!!! They don't have one good word for the United States. The reason why these quacks are thankful that Obama is in office is because Obama is doing the work for them!!! DESTROYING AMERICA!!!
